Trump is notoriously a zero sum true believer, despite it being routinely mocked, disproven, and sociopathic. He fully believes that help given to people who are not him is wasteful and harmful to him, at least indirectly.
Richard M. Stallman, founder of the GNU project, original creator of GCC and Emacs, FOSS evangelist and hardliner, software visionary... And an extremely weird dude also known for:
- aggressive proselytizing of his many varied beliefs
- eating toe jam on stage
- questioning the illegality of pedophilia, ephebophilia, hebephilia, and zoophilia
- unwanted and persistent romantic advances
- demanding that Linus's OS be called GNU/Linux.
- Linkwarden archives to multiple formats out of the box, including PDF and full HTML.
- Both Linkwarden and Karakeep use https://github.com/Y2Z/monolith in the backend. Monolith is battle hardened and widely used and accepted.
- 'far from stable' isn't referring to the archiving, it's referring to the frontend, tagging, etc. Features this blog post doesn't even offer
- a hastily cobbled together, manual (more mistakes allowed), untested system is more fragile than standardized software used by many thousands daily
Or just use Linkwarden or Karakeep (previously Hoarder)
Yay, my turn!
No, Richard, it's 'Linux', not 'GNU/Linux'. The most important contributions that the FSF made to Linux were the creation of the GPL and the GCC compiler. Those are fine and inspired products. GCC is a monumental achievement and has earned you, RMS, and the Free Software Foundation countless kudos and much appreciation.
Following are some reasons for you to mull over, including some already answered in your FAQ.
One guy, Linus Torvalds, used GCC to make his operating system (yes, Linux is an OS -- more on this later). He named it 'Linux' with a little help from his friends. Why doesn't he call it GNU/Linux? Because he wrote it, with more help from his friends, not you. You named your stuff, I named my stuff -- including the software I wrote using GCC -- and Linus named his stuff. The proper name is Linux because Linus Torvalds says so. Linus has spoken. Accept his authority. To do otherwise is to become a nag. You don't want to be known as a nag, do you?
(An operating system) != (a distribution). Linux is an operating system. By my definition, an operating system is that software which provides and limits access to hardware resources on a computer. That definition applies whereever you see Linux in use. However, Linux is usually distributed with a collection of utilities and applications to make it easily configurable as a desktop system, a server, a development box, or a graphics workstation, or whatever the user needs. In such a configuration, we have a Linux (based) distribution. Therein lies your strongest argument for the unwieldy title 'GNU/Linux' (when said bundled software is largely from the FSF). Go bug the distribution makers on that one. Take your beef to Red Hat, Mandrake, and Slackware. At least there you have an argument. Linux alone is an operating system that can be used in various applications without any GNU software whatsoever. Embedded applications come to mind as an obvious example.
Next, even if we limit the GNU/Linux title to the GNU-based Linux distributions, we run into another obvious problem. XFree86 may well be more important to a particular Linux installation than the sum of all the GNU contributions. More properly, shouldn't the distribution be called XFree86/Linux? Or, at a minimum, XFree86/GNU/Linux? Of course, it would be rather arbitrary to draw the line there when many other fine contributions go unlisted. Yes, I know you've heard this one before. Get used to it. You'll keep hearing it until you can cleanly counter it.
You seem to like the lines-of-code metric. There are many lines of GNU code in a typical Linux distribution. You seem to suggest that (more LOC) == (more important). However, I submit to you that raw LOC numbers do not directly correlate with importance. I would suggest that clock cycles spent on code is a better metric. For example, if my system spends 90% of its time executing XFree86 code, XFree86 is probably the single most important collection of code on my system. Even if I loaded ten times as many lines of useless bloatware on my system and I never excuted that bloatware, it certainly isn't more important code than XFree86. Obviously, this metric isn't perfect either, but LOC really, really sucks. Please refrain from using it ever again in supporting any argument.
Last, I'd like to point out that we Linux and GNU users shouldn't be fighting among ourselves over naming other people's software. But what the heck, I'm in a bad mood now. I think I'm feeling sufficiently obnoxious to make the point that GCC is so very famous and, yes, so very useful only because Linux was developed. In a show of proper respect and gratitude, shouldn't you and everyone refer to GCC as 'the Linux compiler'? Or at least, 'Linux GCC'? Seriously, where would your masterpiece be without Linux? Languishing with the HURD?
If there is a moral buried in this rant, maybe it is this:
Be grateful for your abilities and your incredible success and your considerable fame. Continue to use that success and fame for good, not evil. Also, be especially grateful for Linux' huge contribution to that success. You, RMS, the Free Software Foundation, and GNU software have reached their current high profiles largely on the back of Linux. You have changed the world. Now, go forth and don't be a nag.
Thanks for listening.
No. We very much did call the post/discussion format of Lemmy/Kbin/etc Threadiverse before threads was a thing or started federating. You are extremely confidently incorrect. You can easily test and prove this to yourself using a simple search.
Fediverse encompasses all connected Activitypub services. Lemmy/Kbin/mbin/pifed is the Threadiverse.
Threads when talking about discussion threading goes back to usenet & email group days. Meta co-opted the term.
ROCM is well supported by docker PCI passthrough with official packages. So much better than polluting your workstation and maintaining the stack
Never claimed it wasn't?
Threadiverse != Lemmy
Cannot up vote this enough. They have as much power as we collectively give them. They have proven this repeatedly by A) ignoring court orders B) In turn getting repeatedly bitch slapped by the judiciary overturning their orders and actions.
Blind compliance is the only way they succeed. Refusing to comply and fighting back is the only way the rest of us survive.
Badass female grunt soldier treated by her fellow soldiers as a soldier first and foremost.
They're very closely related actually!
Fresher is for sure better. I grew some in my garden.
Oh! Also, don't grow it in your garden, it took over and is extremely hard to control, do it in a raised bed or a potted plant lol.

That's literally what OP said.
Jokes on you, they're into that.
There's definitely some physical manifestations of your strongest emotions. Strong feelings of fear or anger trigger musclular reactions in your belly, strong feelings of anxiety or tension in your neck, love and contentment in your chest, etc.
Perhaps they were trying to find those physical connections to gauge the emotion or intensity?
I'm sure you don't need to be told, but for those who are reading and need to hear it: the most powerful and healthy thing a GM can do is say no. The GM gets to arbitrate the tone of the game and setting, and healthy boundaries are conducive to both fun and creativity.
