sunbeam60@lemmy.oneto Linux@lemmy.ml•Why doesn't the Linux subreddit leave Reddit already?3·2 months agoLinux is mailing lists, if anything. It’s definitely not Reddit.
I am so intrigued by Silverblue but given how stable Fedora is I’m not really sure I’d gain anything
Red Hat, way back in the 90s - must have been 5.0 IIRC.
Since then I went through Ubuntu and now landed on Fedora.

Musk has only himself to blame.

The editing can be done by others as soon as the portrait has been uploaded.
sunbeam60@lemmy.oneto World News@beehaw.org•The USA is immediately lifting the pause in intelligence sharing and resuming security assistance to Ukraine9·3 months agoI’m ascribing agency and competency to the military planners and to Rubio. Trump wouldn’t know which end of a lollipop to lick.
sunbeam60@lemmy.oneto World News@beehaw.org•The USA is immediately lifting the pause in intelligence sharing and resuming security assistance to Ukraine22·3 months agoFor Darwin sake, everybody can read this, right?
First Trump showed Ukraine that he can make Ukraine lose without US support. This brought them to the table again.
Now he aims to show Russia that they can’t win when Ukraine has US support. Trump will support Ukraine with new weapons and even more intel, possibly with permissions to use US weapons in deeper strike missions. This coincides with Trump getting Ukraine to agree to a ceasefire position (that Trump still doesn’t understand Russia will never agree to).
This will go on for 4-6 weeks, then Trump will realise “math is hard, yo” and properly give up on an attempt, blaming Russia, Ukraine and/or the EU.
Then by end of 2025 the recent Trump induced EU panic that caused Europe to react will have created a rapid expansion of European capability and will. Then the US will exit and the war will go on for another couple of years.

100%. Firefox would be better off, I suspect, by focusing on the browser, solely, and with a distributed global team that didn’t need a fancy SF office and fancy SF comp packages.
Servo isn’t a functional browser. You’re not comparing apples to apples.

I live outside of a big city in the UK. Many times I can ONLY get 2G.
sunbeam60@lemmy.oneto Technology@lemmy.world•25 arrested in global hit against AI-generated child sexual abuse materialEnglish2·3 months agoIt obviously depends on where they live and/or committed the crimes. But most countries have broad laws against anything, real or fake, that depicts CSAM.
It both because as technology gets better it would be easy for offenders to claims anything they’ve been caught with is AI created.
It’s also because there’s a belief that AI generated CSAM encourages real child abuse.
I shan’t say whether it does - I tend to believe so but haven’t seen data to prove me right or wrong.
Also, at the end, I think it’s simply an ethical position.
Why a new engine, Firefox is open source?!
Fork Firefox.
But good luck funding a team to keep up with commercial companies’ pace. It needs funding.
If Mozilla made a way to donate in a way that I KNEW it would go towards the maintenance of the browser, and not another crappy thing they’re trying to be profitable, I’d donate in a second. I spend about £30/month on OSS donations and I’d happily add £5/month to Mozilla if I trusted them not to misspend it.
You’re on of us then!
I, and many others, start closing stuff when there’s more than a handful.
Others, like many, just run then forever and ever. A sea of icons, tiny and compressed. Worrying they’ll lose that tab they really like in amongst the clutter. Unaware of the history feature.
