What's the difference between the three Forge links you listed and Forgejo? It's concerning if there are 4 competing git federation tools being developed...

He's probably curious about sustainable open source models. I'm curious about it too. How can we avoid another RedHat?

Fair I was filling in the blanks of your argument. I disagree with China having to own the accusations made against its treatment of its Uighur minority, there's a lot of evidence out there that this is a US funded campaign to discredit China internationally, similar to how they used Tibet as a propaganda campaign in the 90's.

Regardless, I agree China has done bad things, similar to many powers in the world, and they should own (be accountable to) those mistakes. In this context I don't see the need for them to own anything however, instead they should continue to defend their reputation, and point out human rights issues in the west.

Ngl this probably would make it easier to scroll websites without fixed widths, as well as diagrams.

Someone told me I wasn't allowed to post an opinion piece on World News because it wasn't news. They didn't agree with the article I posted. It feels like a double standard that they're not posting the same comment here. (I'm fine with opinion posts BTW)

Sure, just don't degrade the severity of what a genocide means for political gain. It used to mean genocide was extermination of people based on their ethnicity. At the same standard the USA holds China, mow I can say the USA imprisoning black people systemically and putting them in parole programs to force them to get work in menial jobs amounts to genocide because is 1) systemic and 2) destroys a culture counter to the main society. Your country is committing genocide right now if you held it to the same standards at you hold China.

The USA is not a true democracy in the academic sense of the word.

Has the USA owned Chile, Afghanistan, Iraq, Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam, Cambodia, Marshall Islands, Honduras, Haiti, black prison labour, I could go on if you want..?

Why am I not surprised? The G7 loves to use international law maliciously about out of the spirit of the law.

I think you're being pedantic here.

Wait so we're still mad at Germany?

How many Ukrainians have described their own battlefield as a "meatgrinder"?

??? This wasn't my point.

Congrats

You do understand that nuclear war is final?

So would NATO... boom goes the nuke

What did beehaw defederate from? That site seems pretentious.

I've found since 18.2 that Lemmy.ml is as reliable as ressot for me. Compared to June I've had no hanging, errors, or issues accessing pages.

This won't fly in Russia. Everyone already uses a VPN. They tried to ban telegram and it didn't take. Russians won't accept this. I think a lot of people in the west think Russia is an autocratic dictatorship but they'll revolt if they're not happy.

There already are Linux standards, its just that there are lots of people developing their own distros. Asking people who are developing in their free time to contribute to a collective solution if they don't want to is forcing them to do something they don't want to do in their free time.

Linux will become big in countries that encourage their governments and companies not to use Windows, and eventually there will be a few major players for desktop beyond the big 3 for enterprise (Suse, Ubuntu, Redhat)

Astra Linux in Russia is becoming the mass adopted Linux, the longer the war goes, the more companies that won't be able to renew Microsoft licenses, the more adoption of Linux will increase.

Deepin Linux (China UOS) gets about 500 posts on it's forums in Chinese per day. That version of Linux will likely become the dominant desktop OS in China by ~2030 if the USA continues sanctions.

Linux Mint has incrementally been growing a user base and donations every month. 5 years ago they were getting 7,000 euros on average per month, today they get 12,000 euros on average per month.

I'm not worried about Linux Desktop anymore, it's a permanently established common good even if the majors like Red Hat and Ubuntu fold. And just like Lemmy and Mastodon popped up, at some point in the future Microsoft will do something greedy with Windows and people will flock to a few distros and it'll all be over then.
