  • what model do you have if you don't mind me asking? curious what's out there working for people from someone who would like to get into it but just hasn't (nor looked into it very much)

  • Zen Z

    Jump
  • they could ask the teacher, sure, but why not fix the problem instead of using a disruptive workaround until the end of time? phrased another way, should we as a society fix problems or provide half solutions that don't fully resolve them?

  • Looks nice! A little too bare-bones and missing some features but thanks for putting it on my radar. I'm currently bouncing between duckduckgo and SearXNG.

  • Cool project! I used OpenSpeedTest last week to test local intranet speeds.

    If you already have docker/podman installed, the command below should get you going quickly:

     shell
        
     docker run --restart=unless-stopped --name openspeedtest -d -p 3000:3000 -p 3001:3001 openspeedtest/latest
    
      
  • And on mobile, use Organic Maps. It downloads Open Street Map data so it works completely offline, no internet is required once you download whatever regions you need. There are monthly updates for the map data and the app is open source and ad-free.

  • There's no point for democracy when ignorance is celebrated

    NOFX wrote about the rise of ignorance in America and the song "The Idiots Are Taking Over" is more appropriate now than ever before.

    full lyrics below. link to song for anyone not familiar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2sNWDfryyMk

    It's not the right time to be sober
    Now the idiots have taken over
    Spreading like a social cancer, is there an answer?
    Mensa membership conceding
    Tell me why and how are all the stupid people breeding
    Watson, it's really elementary
    The industrial revolution
    Has flipped the *removed* on evolution
    The benevolent and wise are being thwarted, ostracized, what a bummer
    The world keeps getting dumber
    Insensitivity is standard and faith is being fancied over reason
    Darwin's rolling over in his coffin
    The fittest are surviving much less often
    Now everything seems to be reversing, and it's worsening
    Someone flopped a steamer in the gene pool
    Now angry mob mentality's no longer the exception, it's the rule
    And I'm starting to feel a lot like Charlton Heston
    Stranded on a primate planet
    Apes and orangutans that ran it to the ground
    With generals and the armies that obeyed them
    Followers following fables
    Philosophies that enable them to rule without regard
    There's no point for democracy when ignorance is celebrated
    Political scientists get the same one vote as some Arkansas inbred
    Majority rule, don't work in mental institutions
    Sometimes the smallest softest voice carries the grand biggest solutions
    What are we left with?
    A nation of god-fearing pregnant nationalists
    Who feel it's their duty to populate the homeland
    Pass on traditions
    How to get ahead religions
    And prosperity via simpleton culture
    The idiots are taking over
    
      
  • As someone who's been wanting to test (and maybe move to Podman) in the future but hasn't really spent any time on it, what features have Red hat removed from Podman?

  • Why do you think its absurd?

  • The president of the IBA (Umar Kremlev) is a Russian in a position of privilege, a position that is easily influence by Putin's agenda (who hate anything pro LGBTQ+). I would argue, with plenty of facts to back it up, that the IBA is compromised and is unable to have a neutral stance on this matter.

    Under Kremlev's tenure as IBA head, he has heavily marketed himself, moved the IBA's operations to Russia, suspended Ukraine from the IBA, and made the Russian state-owned energy giant Gazprom the sole sponsor of the IBA... The IOC stated that the IBA had failed to address governance, finance and corruption concerns.

  • I use the shit out of Firefox PWA. I just wish Mozilla would get off their asses and make it work out of the box vs having to install a third party app.

  • I would disagree. When the right (known liars like Boebert, Trump, Logan Paul, etc) continuously lie about anything to try to rile up their base, I say it's imperative to completely disregard their opinions unless someone trusted is making the accusations. This is what they expect, this is exactly what they want. We need to ignore them. Not even bring it up. Keep them fringe and outcast them as weirdos. They bring nothing good to the table but lies, hatred, and divisiveness.

  • Call me when there’s a serious OneNote...

    OneNote works on the web, but there's also Notenook if someone is looking for similar features with an app for offline access + End-to-end encryption and open source alternative. I've got it syncing to my Android, Windows, Linux and Mac clients without issue.

    ...or even more importantly, Excel competitor.

    There's OnlyOffice which has a spreadsheet. Yeah it's not Excel which has existed for a million years, but it should work for the vast majority of users' basic needs. It may not work for your specific use case, but it is a viable alternative that exists today. If you want more online collaborative features (like the o365 version has) you can use CryptPad, which provides an end-to-end encrypted and open-source collaboration suite, including the web version of OnlyOffice Spreadsheets.

    Or even a standard shell on Linux...

    What does this even mean? Nearly every major Linux distro sets bash as the default shell, and if not the default, is probably already installed and called if needed. Not sure I understand the problem here.

    ...or the same set of tools built in

    Stick to a single OS and you get the same set of tools built in? This is a strange statement to be making against a system that not only thrives on diversity but has lots of niche systems that require a myriad of default tools.


    I do completely agree about not using any browser's built-in password manager.

  • Republicans don't even believe in climate change. Why would Republicans endorse any policy that would help mitigate the issue when they don't think it's being influenced by man? You can't negotiate with bio-terrorists.

  • You’re objectively evil.

    Typical Trump apologist mentality, projecting their own views and not backing up their claims.

    Not reading past your first paragraph as it already makes every source after that irrelevant.

    Cheers! 🍻 Stay ignorant.

    You feel really smart adding references and sources to your deathwish right? I hope you realize how ironic that looks.

    Just trying to help others educate themselves on the facts, but there's only so much you can do when people are willing to stay ignorant 🤓

    EDIT: I should add - please, at the very least, read up on the paradox of tolerance. Your ignorance only helps the enemy.

  • You'd be correct. This is why median gives you a better representation of a general population. Averages can easily be distorted.

  • If you've already read through this and understand what it means and are still worried about your privacy, I would recommend you switch to LibreWolf - it takes all the best practices of hardening Firefox for security and works out of the box. Unfortunately, this means you can't play certain videos, it doesn't auto-update, and some - likely many - websites will break/not work. This is the price to pay for true privacy. If you don't want that, just keep using Firefox.

  • Yep! The device has a built-in web server. You connect via it's IP from any browser and configure it how you want. Here's what it looks like in homeassistant.
