@eivind @hopland æ skreiv en saklig kommentar på detta innlegget ( okasi1.com/post/our-vision ) om kor motstridanes det de sei de ønska, og det de faktisk gjør, e. Anbefalte dem å bruk #FLOSS isteden, decidim :blobcat_nwn:

Nu e kommentaren min sletta 🤡

Så veldig transparent og demokratifremmanes av dem å sensurere kritikk basert på faktuelle observasjona /s

Prøv sjøl, og få det gjerne arkivert via archive.org før de sletta kommentaren igjen

Hmm, schade, bei @organicmaps scheint‘s gerade – gelinde gesagt – etwas zu rumpeln. Wer diese nutzungs- und datenschutzfreundliche, lokale Maps- und Navigations-App kennt und bisher schätzte, sollte vielleicht schon mal @CoMaps folgen.
Dort ist auch der offene Brief zu finden, in dem die Community die Probleme zusammengefasst hat. Vielleicht entsteht dort auch ein #Fork.

After long hours looking for and testing different apps, only Cog, maintained by @chris, was the music player able to load my library on MacOS with no errors.

Thanks for your work, Cris!

So I've been using a machine for a little over two months now, making church bulletins with @libreoffice and live-stream thumbnails with @GIMP (and refining my parish's logos into vector graphics using @inkscape ). Not only am I loving all these new tools, I'm reminded that there are people in the world who like to make things for others (like ) and are not necessarily trying to become uber wealthy. It puts a major ding in the capitalist mentality!

I have a choice.
:fedora: Kinoite with toolbx
:nixos: with #distrobox (or other?)
to start to learn programming.

@ptribble I'm happy to report that I managed to boot a Tribblix m20 ISO from the USB using #Ventoy. Rufus, Balena, even good old Unetbootin did not manage. I'm happy since I do not have to burn CD-R's nor play with iPXE (tho I was prepared for it).
Unfortunately format and fdisk were to cryptic for me (also do SATA SSD's have cylinders?) so partitioning I did separately from eventual installation.
Fingers crossed I'll manage to the finish line! #Unix #Solaris #FLOSS

I am a very big fan of technology and music.

I literally listen to music all day everyday 😅 if I'm able to.

I love playing golf ⛳ when time allows.

I'm a designer engineer in the field of stainless steel conveyor/ guards. I build SS guards for industrial equipment (conveyors)

And when asked in the video comments to make #AI opt-in, the developer response is "don't use it" or "fork it". 🔥 (2/2)

Or just don't use it? Alternatively the OS is open source, you could modify it yourself to do/remove whatever you'd like

I’ve noticed that when I enable the “Force Composition Pipeline” option in NVIDIA settings on my RTX 2070 running on X11, my system freezes shortly after starting any game which uses DXVK. This seems to be related to NVIDIA driver version 535 and newer.

The problem happens because DXVK 2.3 started using the VK_KHR_present_wait extension, which doesn’t work well with the composition pipeline enabled on these drivers. The freeze happens consistently and makes the desktop unresponsive within a couple of seconds after launching any game using DXVK.

I found a discussion about this issue on NVIDIA’s developer forums where it’s confirmed and reproducible.

- forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/

They still haven't fixed this. It's been years since 2023, yet NVIDIA's drivers still treat X11 like a beta test. Who needs open source love when you can just... not fix reproducible crashes?

(Their Vulkan support? More like Vul-can't, am I right?)
