It's not just that kind of service. There are media properties to tariff - movies, shows, music. There is software and consulting for enterprises to tariff. There are financial services to tariff.
The USA is the biggest exporter of services in the world, by a huge margin. Trump can pretend all he wants that it's only goods that matter, but the moment US services are going to be hit with tariffs, the wailing will begin. All his ultra-rich friends made their money on services.
Uh-oh. The check must have bounced.
Not so much Plan B, as just Plan A running into Orbán's veto, but not giving up in advance, and hoping that Orbán is not going to be around much longer so that the accession can go through with the next government.
Hold on to your chairs, incoming Presidential pardon!
There must have been a gallery component, since I only looked at generators that had one available.
Honestly, in hindsight the templates were really not a big deal. Just for fun, I tried converting the Hugo template I used to Pelican, and it was easy for me.
Pelican is solid and mature and I would use it, in hindsight. The only major flaws are that it's much slower (but makes up for it with incremental builds) and that the community is much, much smaller. On the plus side, Jinja2 is much, much, much better than Go templating (Hugo borrows from Go).
I went the same direction, from WordPress to static site generation. I did the same evaluation as you are trying to do and ended up with Hugo, mostly because there is a lot of support available for it. My runner up was Pelican, because I was fluent in Jinja2, but I didn't want to mess around with the templates and Hugo's were prettier. Sue me, I am shallow.
The one regret I have about Hugo is that the templating language is challenging. I am trying to be as neutral as possible, but it seemed like even simple things were complicated to achieve. If someone would come up with a Hugo that speaks Jinja2, I'd be really delighted.
Other than that, conversion from WordPress to Hugo was relatively straightforward, despite needing to find a gallery component and converting menus. Hugo is indeed very fast in processing, which become important when your blog has thousands of articles.
I set up the blog as a private git repository. The server pulls from it, then runs Hugo and a full text search engine, and the content is visible and searchable within five minutes on update.
I feel with you. The product idea is awesome, the implementation is so-so, and progress is backwards. It's heart-breaking, really, and so sad nobody has a real alternative.
Smart move for a country with one of the lowest birth rates in the world! /s
The funniest thing is that even some of Google's own products don't accept Webp, like Google Voice.
I think it's the "basically" part in basically right back where we started that makes the difference. Even if 100% of Fediverse users were on a single instance, once that instance starts pulling Musk moves, the users can move somewhere else.
Only if that instance defederates from everyone else do we get the Twitter situation again. Or, since that's actually what happened, Truth Social, which I think is just a slightly modified Mastodon instance with federation disabled/deactivated.
I used to have a Canon Pixma, and the SANE drivers recognized it and scanned from it with no issues, down to the ADF feeder. It was really surprisingly simple, zero setup configuration.
I basically just used the preinstalled software, Skanlite, and it showed with the scanner pre-selected and ready to go.
Of course, YMMV.
If you get within earshot of a Republican, chances are you'll hear complaints about "damn taxes" within five minutes. So to a certain set of people, definitely everyone they talk to is constantly complaining about taxes.
When I was starting out and making little money, the taxes I paid were definitely cutting into my ability to live. I think instead of "standard deductions" we should have real minimum incomes. If you are under the minimum income for your location, you don't pay taxes.
Now that I am at the end of my career, I think it's stupid that my taxes are not higher. If I could have given young me some of the money I am keeping now, I would have had a much better life overall. I obviously can't do that now, but I can give someone else the same breathing room.
