it is superior in all the ways. too bad it’s barely supported by anything

since your CPU has 16 threads (“cores” but not really cores, you probably only have 8 of that), if a process uses up all the capacity of a single core, that will have a 100/16 = ~6% cpu usage. In my experience looking for this really works… at least on windows, please don’t hurt me. it should on linux too, but there I don’t have it at such a visible place.

this may not work that much though when your system is under a higher load, and the process you’re looking for also has a higher CPU usage, like 30% or something.
in this case you’ll want to look for the cpu usage of the individual threads of processes with a higher cpu usage. if you have a process which has a thread with 6% cpu usage (in case of a 16 hardware thread cpu), then that process is at fault. by looking at the name of the thread you may even find out what is its purpose.

oh, they have forked the linux kernel, so cute!
I mean, this is an individual forking it, not a group of people, right?

but reading the first 2 paragraphs, they are so full of shit that I wouldn’t trust them with a butter knife.

yeah, but hardware support and buggyness is still a question

and then what’s the benefit of having veracrypt as a flatpak package? that it can be used with older dependencies? if so, is that a good thing to have for things that modify system startup?

like all the privacy toggles on facebook? or the “dont upload my start menu searches to bing pretty please” group policy on windows that doesn’t fucking work anymore?

who cares? try to prove anything

yeah, VLAN interfaces and other kinds of virtual interfaces can also be used. I think you can even have multiple “sub interfaces”, that will receive distinct IPs from the local DHCP server

It’s clear that it’s not free software, because as the name suggests, that’s about freedoms.

What is not really clear is that it’s not open source. To me at least it means that the source is public, you can change it, use it, send in patches, etc, but possibly with some limitations.

I don’t think they even know that there’s a possible choice. Common people don’t understand computers, not at this level.

Cars is a good example for another reason. Do we have new cars without a built-in internet connection and continuous user (and environment) tracking, and questionable remote control functions? Afaik we don’t.

oh! last time I checked it was still just a feature request. This is cool, thanks!

I could only find this in the documentation of it, though, so probably it’s being kept quiet for a reason: https://forgejo.org/docs/latest/contributor/federation-architecture/

the state of it can be tracked by looking at these issues and these blog posts

OP probably means this:

Internet Membership

Sign up for an Internet Membership and enjoy unlimited 4G or 5G mobile internet in all US states and territories.

Sounds very interesting! With such a service, I could finally throw away my phone number. That is, if this is a mobile hotspot like solution.
Its only US, though.

I really don’t understand the difference between free software and open source at tis point. It would make sense to me if this would make it nonfree, but I don’t understand why is it not open source anymore. Isn’t the open source definition a broader one than that of free software?

Seems strange that the dev seems to be keeping quiet on this, no?

the issue was just posted 7 hours ago. maybe they just haven’t seen it yet.

someone in issue #573 asked if the dpapi file is really needed, and by looking at the manual installation instructions, yes, because that contains all the code.

the developer loads custom code into the spotify process by using such an “override” dll file. it works because spotify is voluntarily loading a dll with this name, and if there’s such a file in the directory besides the .exe file, it’ll take precedence over the original file installed in the system.
the trojan warning is probably triggered because this technique is often used by malware to change the behaviour of your programs, but as with most technologies, it has good uses too

did you want to link #573 ? you only linked the issues list

Needing to make a subtly different version of a website to serve to every state and country to be in full compliance

do they need to? I don’t think so. they could just follow privacy best practices everywhere, if they can’t afford to do whatever they want with user and visitor data.

they don’t want this solution, however, but in my understanding instead to force every state to have weaker privacy laws

Unfortunately that’s not something that can be done system wide, apps have to handle that themselves.

I had a dell tablet a decade ago with windows 7 that was able to do it anywhere

but users would, for the most part, not tolerate removing the ability to boot any OS they feel like, so there’s enough pressure that locked shit won’t migrate down to all consumer hardware.

what makes you think that?

forgejo is like github copy, and is a fork of the relatively known gitea. so far there are no federation features

radicle is something similar, but as I understand, with distributed repo management. I don’t know the implications of this.

radicle also has an own cryptocurrency, and is entangled with web3.
while not all cryptocurrencies are scams, and probably the same applies to web3 projects, almost all of them are either scams, or useless for the purpose of using it as a currency. I don’t know how the radicle currency fares, but it made me distrust them somewhat when they started talking about that in their announcement channel, and the fact that since then the channel did not post much else did not help to gain back this trust

how can we have relatively simpler touch gestures? mostly what I’m thinking about is long press for imitating a right click, but text selection with popup copy/paste/etc buttons would also be useful.

I would say it’s also inconvenient that we don’t have a good touch keyboard for wayland, but you probably know that.
maliit is hard to build, afaik not packaged for any distro, buggy and not customizable (or if it is, it is not documented anywhere else than the code), apparently there is no way to limit it’s width, which makes usage harder on tablet sized screens. it has also been abandoned by the devs.
squeekboard is not compatible with KDE wayland because of missing protocols.
onboard is X only.
