And I was just asking yesterday what would you feel if someone evil used your FOSS software: https://lemmy.world/post/16898871

 

I found out that this tool http://www.convertlit.com/ provides a program with a funny name. I wonder if there are similar programs with offensive names or puns like this one. For example, I remember reading a fortune output saying something along the lines of

man Why did you get divorced? 
man: Too many arguments.

And of course, there is the cliche touch grass.

Yet another reminder that the cloud is just a fancy name for someone else's computer.

Woah. Interesting setup. Looks like a PinePhone with 3D-printed case. But what about the keyboard? and the original Android status bar?

 

If your employer forced you to either use Google or Microsoft or some other tech company (Apple, Samsung, etc.) what would be a better choice?

Which company is more compliant in terms of privacy or generally better and why?

I was thinking about Google since there were new regulations enforced by government and at least I don't have to pay for Google Docs, unlike Microsoft where I pay and I'm still spied on.

Yeah and some really good chess players too

"Yes. Do as I say."

 

I used to follow on Reddit:

  • GetMotivated
  • GetStudying
  • GetDisciplined
  • Productivity
  • Etc

are there similar communities or Mastodon accounts that you suggest?

The everyshit app

Great prompt OP. It's great to reflect and share those moments.

For me it's a management trick that I realized after having my files (computer ones and physical ones) all over the place.

You don't have to have a file for everything. Instead create a dump.txt file in every directory instead of having few paragraphs scattered in files.

This way I separate "organizing files" from actually typing out my thoughts.

same way as a bread is sliced

Haha interesting, but how do you slice bread by rotation? it's up to down. That's how you cut stuff.

Nice. This feature is similar to Android wallpaper color theming.

And I thought Xorg already had this feature in Xresources, but apps do not respect it.

 
 

Was there an alternative adjective to "clockwise" other than "the rotation you take around left hand"?

Also, how did all watch companies around the world agree on what the direction of "clockwise" is?

 

I think this is one of the best ways to make the Fediverse mature.

Are there subs or Mastodon account for recommending content or showing what's currently popular in the Fediverse?

Is this a thing? i.e: a FOSS Linux system but with pre-configured pirated apps.

Imagine installing Linux and having Microsoft word, Adobe products, or some games pre-installed without pain.

I read that The Internet Archive is having financial and legal troubles, despite being one of the most important projects on the internet.

Are there other projects that can be supported by "computing power"?
