I just had to install with wine and add some fonts to the wine prefix

In vim, in normal mode you can do: :w !sudo tee %

Write to non technical humans and ask them for feedback, and if it is clear what’s goong on even if they dont understand some stuff.

Then do the same with various levels of technical people and different walks of life.

1. No, but I mean it IS possible to take steps against and live outside capitalism while inside capitalism is possible. It’s a grayscale, not “all or nothing”.
2. Meaning, that open source not being paid is not inherently outside capitalism.
3. Yeah, sure is. But they are crowd sourced paymemts, instead of corporate payments.

Why? I use the internet to share media and culture via P2P. Is that failing my ideals? Also I don’t remember Stallman being a commie, to be fair.

And opensource CAN exist without people paying the mantainers, people have being giving things away to the community since time is time This trend of companies paying mintainers is relatively new.

Plus, on the other hand, as long as it is full open source, I can’t see why anyone would have a problem with the maintainers getting paid, specially through a foundation via donarions and/or crowdfunding.

Machine learning IS AI. Seriously guys, you can hate it as much as you want (and calling LLMs autocomplete is quite reductive), but Machine learning is a subfield of AI.

I see this opinion parroted a lot around here, word by word, so I guess is the new popular opinion, but still… it is a fact that it’s AI.

That said, bit moronic to try an use them for military decision making, sure, at least nowadays.

Indeed Google is named after the googol

So lomg as you back it up and it does not have multiple write transactions concurrently, swlite works pretty fine even fornbig loads.

You forget the absolute amounts of data harvested, storage won’t pay itself.

And some day 1 games lile starfield.

audiobookshelf, though you need to self host it

What if we cannot afford the space of keeping everything backed uo forever? What if it has been a year? Where do we put the limits to “okay, this is stupid” and “this is perfectably reasonable”? What if the action cannot be reversed, and after deletion you need to anonimyze particularly sensitive data?

I say to all that, READ THE FUCKING MANUAL. If you are not apt enough to read and research about the software, you are not apt enough to use it.

Same with hardware. You cut your finger because you didnt follow instructions clearly laid out for you not to cut your finger when using a saw? Maybe sawing was not for you mate

It’s literally impossible. I’ve seen programs ask three times to confirm a deletion, with big warnings, really emphasized. Saying it’s permanent all three times.

Then the fuckers contacted us at tech support and go all like “hurr durr I just deleted my project can I have it back”.

NO YOU LITTLE DIPSHIT YOU CANNOT. We did have backups though, most of the time (if it was recent) but it took well over a couple hours to properly restore, so we only did it if they asked nicely and behaved.

TL;DR People are stupid, no such thing as dump proofing. What needs to be done is hold people to higher standards and force to educate themselves or GTFO.
