Wow that’s racist.

Joking, of course. It’s an ethnostate with a deeply authoritarian government that is actively commuting human rights atrocities and violating international laws and treaties.

Typing that out I just realized why we support them.

Someone on here tried to argue IN FAVOR of ads?

Same! Not to knock Mastdon, but I feel like I don’t get it in the same way I never got Twitter. Does that make sense? Somehow, microblogging doesn’t click for me.

I think that’s a perfectly reasonable stance. Just mention the need to install the “words” package if it it throws an error saying /use/share/dict/words can’t be found. It took me about three minutes to solve and I’m only a hobbyist!

By the way, love this project! I forgot to say that in my initial reply :)

I’ll have you know that fixing things that don’t work for no reason is my favorite thing to do on a distro /s

While I kid, I have been on Manjaro for 5 years as a daily driver. I know it’s team gets a lot of hate, but it’s been rock solid for me for all my normal usage.

Quick pointer you may wanna add to the readme:

This depends upon /use/share/dict/words which doesn’t necessarily exist on all systems. To try this out on an arch-based district, (Manjaro,) I had to install the package “words” with yay.

As a fan of Faulkner, I am personally offended by that sign.

I’ll one up ya!

I am a pen and paper guy…for initial notes.

If I deem a certain note or set of notes is worth keeping long term, then I recreate them in Joplin. All about the extra work.

Nope! Telegram because you know what they say in cryptography circles: always roll your own! Oh wait…

Considering courts have been using Zoom since COVID…I am dying to see what happens. Will Zoom clarify that it doesn’t collect/utilize meeting recordings to train AI? Is it going to exactly that and force anyone conducting sensitive business to find a new platform?

This feels like a remarkably bad move, both for privacy and for Xoom’s own business concerns, unless I’m missing something.

My grandfather told me that the next world war would likely be fought over clean water decades ago and unfortunately it looks like that was another example of what a smart man he was.

FreshRss! It’s a selfhostable web app/server with a browser reader.

The full text extraction takes some technical fiddling and reading, but it works like a charm!
