Just like with cable companies, where there is one default corporate run OS or in this case 2 (I guess chromebook is an OS too) Correct, no one randomly recommends OSs) same with corporate run social media platforms. When FOSS exists it has no marketing campaign outside of word of mouth as its not selling anything and has no budget. If we don't share info, people in the corporate sphere of influence will never know there are other alternatives. We are the algorithm as well as the marketing campaign.



Redditor shares an MRI of their brain which has ~ 25% missing. Docs said they shouldn’t be able to walk or talk, but this person claims they can even run.

Grain of salt and all that. But wild pic.

European-style colonialism could be how humans proceed in #space exploration.

This philosopher of science and religion says “it doesn’t matter whether space is actually inhabited or whether rocks have rights. Preventing colonialism in outer space doesn’t request the space industry to agree on metaphysical questions.”

But it does require all participants to agree on a shared set of standards for caring about planets:

I recently started using #navidrome to manage my music, so naturally, I had to write my own #subsonic compatible client. Its using @kde Kirigami2 so will take a little effort to get running on #SailfishOS. github.com/piggz/supersonik

LINux on MOBile reshared this.

@piero The answer is "it depends..." .. and is down to whatever framework/toolkit is used. If its pure Silica, then no, that would be developed on the emulator or a real device. If it uses a toolkit abstraction, like Amazfish or Puremaps, then yes, dev can happen on desktop and then tweaked when on a SailfishOS device. If its a Qt5/KF5/QQC/Kirigami1 then yes, I we have all those libraries built for Sailfish and can develop on desktop and run on device.......
in reply to Adam Pigg

@piero .....but this app is Qt6/Kf6/Kirigami2, so no, I dont (yet) have those libs available on Sailfish, so ATM, this is desktop or some other distro that ships these libs... something with plasma mobile


#GretaThunberg :
"We are never going back to normal again because ‘normal’ was already a crisis.

What we refer to as normal is an extreme system built on the exploitation of people and the planet.

It is a system defined by colonialism, imperialism, oppression and genocide by the so-called global North to accumulate wealth that still shapes our current world order.

If economic growth is our only priority, then what we are experiencing now should be exactly what we should be expecting.”



Obtained additional 2.5TB of NVDIMMs (5x 512GB Optane Series 200, for Ice Lake Xeons (LGA-4189))... the $/GB was too good to pass on, and these are new + shipping directly from Intel (not China hyperscaler decomms).

So... now begins the arduous task of comparative analysis for CPU SKUs and MB choices. Probably it makes sense to duplicate the existing Ice Lake build, but that's not as fun as obsessing over specs and possibilities.
