Hi!
My previous/alt account is yetAnotherUser@feddit.de which will be abandoned soon.
These suggestion all sound quite bland and corporate though. GIMP isn’t a great name but better than all of those in my opinion.
A better change should be more like Minetest becoming Luanti. Here is what ChatGPT came up with instead:
These are horrible compared to Luanti.
And an archive would be doing exactly that: Distributing copyrighted materials.
Moving to Europe is not necessarily a great idea depending on the country they choose. US copyright law is comparatively lenient to some European countries, who can be said to be (much more) controlled by publishers when it comes to copyright.
Depebding on the country, Europe has significantly worse copyright law than the US, to the extent that archiving a web page is illegal.
Fun fact:
In Germany you have to pay a special tax for anything that could be used to violate copyright. It ranges from 0.10€ for USB sticks to 90€ for faster printers to 14,000,000€ for opening up a public library - all going to a bunch of publisher organizations.
In 2012, the Landgericht Hamburg (Regional Court) partially upheld Sony’s claims.
That’s Germany’s most blatantly biased court for copyright infringement by the way. Any regional court can be chosen when suing for copyright infringement but it’s always Hamburg that handles these cases. Be careful when publishing pictures of your home on the internet - your wallpaper may be copyrighted and you may have to pay a few thousand euros.
Two reasons:
Young people see news influencers on social media which are even less trustworthy than traditional news outlets.
It’s the “I did my own research” of news.
I dislike the .not() method a bit because it inverts the meaning of the previous code snippet you’ve read.
if (list.isEmpty()...
“Ah, so if the list is empty…”
if (list.isEmpty().not())
“Goddammit”
They should call it GNULinux instead
Huh, that wasn’t there yesterday when this was posted, I’ve checked everything I have access to
Either way, it’s everywhere now
I genuinely believe the NSA et al is targeting those who attempt to avoid all targeting more than the average person. It’s difficult to avoid being tracked, it’s nearly impossible to additionally blend in with an unsuspicious façade. Might as well become a secret agent if you’re capable of avoiding the NSA’s gaze.
Telegram has public groups which function nearly identical to social media. Signal does not.
If Amazon AWS began hosting nazi websites and refused to take them down, should the CEO be arrested? I’d say yes.
Have you heard about this insane invention called
tunnel?
Sure, it’s more expensive but you can put miles of rail underground without much issue, besides cost. Safety will be slightly lower, but just from super safe to very safe.
There is one major issue with this article:
Yet, many bikes and bike equipment are still manufactured with only the other 26% in mind.
No. They are made with the majority in mind, since the European and Asian bike market, where significantly fewer people are overweight or obese dwarve the American market.
Projected North American bike market revenue (2024):
$10.44 billion
Projected European bike market revenue (2024):
$27.89 billion
Projected Asian bike market revenue (2024):
$42.13 billion
On an international market, if you don’t matter enough you won’t get special treatment.
Just imagine if 74% of Luxembourgians decided that their smartphone must have a USB-A port, as an essential requirement. How many major manufacturers would accommodate them instead of continuing to sell “normal” phones? Sure, they could put a USB-A port onto all phones globally sold, but why bother? It’s more expensive and nearly nobody outside of Luxembourg would want that feature.

Why would you use a linear approximation, this clearly looks like exponential growth (for the last 9 years).
Linux will obviously achieve 100% market share within the next few years.
At least the addons part has been mostly resolved - although not all addons are supported, Firefox mobile now has significantly more official addons than before:

For mobile, I’d recommend Mull instead of Iceraven
Pros:
Cons:
Here’s a probably somewhat biased but from quickly skimming over it not inaccurate browser comparison by the developer(s) of Mull:

Add golf carts to move to and from the parking lots.
That’s a better first thought than mine, I wondered why “Goosefruit” would be partially censored.
