The Octonaut

Yeah I agree, it seems to be built on the same components as VScode and VScodium. Honestly, I don’t see the point… yeah, sure, they want their editor to work on the web, but couldn’t they have don’t that with a GUI lib that compiles to WASM?

Yeah I agree, it feels like it’s only for open source purists aka a minority.

They don’t need to scrape Lemmy. They just need a federated instance and then they have literally everything you post delivered to them as part of the way Lemmy is designed.

Please understand literally nothing on Lemmy is private.

Sorry, yes. I’ll ammend

You’re both half right.

You get the version at the time of your subscription (plus bugfixes). Then every time a version has been out for 12 months while you’ve been paying you get that version perpetually (plus bugfixes).

So it’s 1.0 when you subscribe, you get that perpetually.

It’s 1.0.1 in your third month, you get that perpetually.

It’s 1.1 in your fifth month. You get that perpetually after 17 months.

It’s 1.2 in your eighth month. You get that perpetually after 20 months.

You unsubscibe at 19 months but retain a perpetual version licence.

• You started with 1.0
• You ended with 1.2
• You have to roll back from 1.2 to 1.1

Previous version was incorrect. This is why I just distribute our licenses, not procure them!

Gonna replace “surprise” with “emergent” and put this on a slide.

“Philosophy” seems a bit grand for something that could be better described as a “tip”.

Don’t clean his new aquarium for like months.

If you can see this response (this half baked Mastodon integration annoys the shit out of me), I’d be happy to talk you through it.

Reddit and Lemmy are supposed to be what you want: link aggregators.

We’re supposed to link to sites and pages and people vote on how good they are in the context of the sub community topic.

Of course, then Ron Paul happened, and now it’s just memes and Yank politics so… maybe deploy Lemmy and turn off comments.

But no matter what you do, you’re asking for something that will need to be manually done. Your tests should be done, and they should be reviewed. It will solve the problem you have and many more.

Did you see the word “computer” somewhere in this image?

Please seek therapy.

Block communities if you want, because it sounds like you don’t want to see… anime pics… at any time.

A product owner is not the same as a project manager.

My friend I’ve been using the Internet for 27 years and developing for it for most of that time and I can promise you I’ve never once hit Alt+Left

Neither is “English” then.

How did I get on Indian LinkedIn

Is there a good community for sideloading apps to TVs? And/or something like custom roms on phones?

I have a Samsung that seems to be Samung’s closed garden of apps rather than Android proper. They let me down on some promised features, eg Google Voice Assistant (I know, I know, sacrificing security and privacy, but I already have a Google Home listening in elsewhere) that were released in UK but bizarrely they didn’t bother with Ireland despite nearly every requirement being identical. I mean Christ, if my parent’s ancient TV can play Crossy Road why can’t my relatively recent one?

I also have an idle Raspberry Pi that could act as Android box but the motivation isn’t there when my TV is mostly just my kids going between Disney Plus and the Nintendo Switch.

I believe it’s better not to pretend that an OS password is a secure protection of your data when physically access can just mean - I don’t like that OS, I’m going to put on this OS instead, or indeed, I don’t like this PC, I’m going to put your data in this PC instead.

Remember, most PCs can become someone else’s PC just by plugging in the right USB key. In fact most Linux users will know that, having literally done this themselves.
