Oh yeah. No one appreciates blue sky research. We don’t know where the question will take us, which is why governments fund the research. They can take on the 0.1% chance something useful is created 20 years later.

Google is about to become AOL. 😂 The walled garden is going to get destroyed by the open web, again.

Ads already destroyed the web. Developers wanting to make web apps instead of web pages already destroyed the web. Google is trying to prop up the corpse of its dead brand by capturing people in their chat bot.

And here it is.

Small VMs, like everything else.

Cool. Podman Desktop should be easier after this. Presumably, it’s still a Linux VM driven by something written by Apple instead of qemu.

No macOS containers though. Being able to spin up macOS containers would have been nice for builds and isolating things like pkgsrc.

Yes?

Signal intelligence is one way information is gathered.

Trump’s ear getting scratched after getting tackled by the Secret Service was my first thought when I saw the photo.

I don’t think a bullet got close.

I haven’t figured out how to host my own news server.

Is there a resource about how to do this?

The project management capabilities of GitLab are pretty nice, for what my opinion is worth.

Then Sourcehut is built around email, so that might be a good middle ground.

I’m going to go find a chainsaw. 😀

As a Fedora user, I would go with Fedora. 😄

OpenSuse Tumbleweed is good, but I find Yast to be kind of overkill. I’m sure it’s great when people figure it out, but there are too many options before then.

Fedora is much simpler, which is weird to say.

They would. Mine love to roll around in dead things when I’m not watching.

Specifically Catholic. It’s a great example of appropriation.

The house geckos were pretty chill little house guests.

 

Does anyone have USB-C dock recommends?

I have a Thinkpad P1 gen 4 running Fedora I’m going to be using as my desktop replacement, and I’m looking for a Linux friendly dock.

I don’t need the dock to do much. Ideally, it could drive 2x 4K DisplayPort displays, have a 2.5Gb+ Ethernet port, and a couple USB-A ports, but 2x 2K DisplayPort and 1GbE work too.

Preferred price is <$150.

Any opinions on an IM solution to send notifications to?

Something which can show push notifications on my phone would be ideal.

This is for my personal stuff which isn't critical or public. I would like E2EE if for no other reason then why not.

Top options:

  • Matrix
  • XMPP

Middle:

  • Jami (No API?)
  • Zulip (no EE2E)
  • Google Chat (no EE2E?, dealing with Google APIs)

No:

  • Briar (no iOS client)
  • Signal (no API)
  • Session (no API)
  • Whatsapp (API cost)
  • Threema (cost)
  • Wire (bot API in beta, cost?)
  • Telegram (sus)
  • Slack
