1·22 hours agoI would then encourage you to look up how those work and what proof of work actually is. Proof of work requires some work to be done by the client. If you want regular people to browse the internet normally and “do work”, that means JavaScript, otherwise it requires them to install an extra binary like TOR or something, which would lock out most of real users. I imagine that’s not the goal of site operators.

There must be a tool that allows you to build packages for multiple systems in multiple formats (deb, rpm, nix, flatpak, snap, etc.). Does that not exist? After 20 years of these systems existing, somebody must’ve tried…
Also, it’s clear that once again, open source needs some kind of funding model, because it’s a little crazy that a project like this can get so popular so fast, the dev flooded with praise, thanks, and issues but not money to maintain and develop it.
How would that work? And how easy would it be to circumvent? Anubis probably forces spinning up a browser or something that supports a JS runtime (again probably a browser), so it’s not as easily scriptable as just callling an HTTP endpoint. I’m curious how you would implement a system without JS.

4·6 days agoIt took me a while to find, but the newest, best supported phones on the device list are
- PINE64 PinePhone Pro (2021)
- Fairphone 4 (2021) (partial call support)
- PINE64 PinePhone (2020)
- Purism Librem 5 (2020)
- SHIFT SHIFT6mq (2020)
The pixel 3a is not well supported and has problems with wifi, battery, audio, camera, calls, and NFC, so IMO don’t base your impression of PostmarketOS on the pixel3a.

Bro… why do opensource projects love proprietary collaboration platforms so much?

Shots fired. Must be footgun that went off somewhere.
That’s a special kind of evil. A purer kind.
ey yo, wtf? is that a meme image?
I’m not really up to date on the situation in the US, but aren’t there millions of people with student debt totalling billions? How much did the US government really spend on education per student in today’s value?
That just looks like an Apple clone. Why do people think that’s “user friendly”?
MuWire? I thought that was dead. The main dev blew a gasket over something and archived it. I see it’s out of archival now, but I do wonder what brought him back.
I didn’t expect eMule and Gnutella to still be active, but probably didn’t know because I’m on Linux and their clients are Windows only. Others have pointed out linux builds that I somehow hadn’t found until now.
I like the concept. It helps with not having to rewrite the same stuff over and over again. It’s like a package registry. Whether it’s implemented well is debatable of course and it’s understandable you don’t like it.
They aren’t being actively developed are they? And do they are windows only too, last time I checked.
The only good thing about Github Actions is the “marketplace” or that you can publish and find actions. The rest is just… not the way I’d do CI. I’m so glad I don’t have to touch that anymore. Only thing worse than Github CI is Jenkins. *Shudder*
Fuck… off the list they go then. Bamboozled, I was.
Seeing as you have money (you bought a mac), there are probably more than enough linux laptop and desktop brands out there.
Linux Preloaded has an overview. My favourites (because Europe) are:
- Tuxedo Computers 🇩🇪
- Slimbook 🇪🇸
- Starlab Systems 🇬🇧
There’s no need to give your money to anti-competitive business like Apple, HP, Lenovo, etc. You can contribute to an alternative, more open, competitive ecosystem. A new macbook pro costs ~2k€. You can get something roughly similar for 1.2k€ from tuxedo computers: infinity book. You can configure that to have 96GB RAM and 6TB storage and you’re now at about the equivalent price tag. If you want a version with a dedicated NVIDIA graphics card here you go. Or here with an AMD graphics card. Both with 64GB RAM and 2TB storage (4x that of the default macbook pro). Go NVIDIA if you want AI/ML stuff, go AMD if you just want to game.
Those were tuxedo computers laptops, and they have more, but Slimbook has similar laptops (example). Starlab Systems books are more expensive, but still provide more bang for the buck than Apple and are very customisable.
Governments and enterprises using these distros should be funding them and paying for security audits. They are really dependent on them.
I’m curious what an attack on NixOS would look like. It would be a good candidate for reproducible builds but it doesn’t seem like they really care about that.
I don’t know of a tutorial, but most tools have to have support for I2P built in, otherwise they won’t work. A good torrent client that does is qBittorrent.
Browsing I2Ps network with HTTP happens over a SOCKS5 proxy, so if aria supports that, you can use it too. https://geti2p.net/ should have more information.
