Oh okay well if you’ve not had an issue then it can’t be one.

Honestly, what is wrong with the people left on lemmy, why is everyone like this. There was a few months there where you could talk and have a conversation. Then all the good people left and we just get… this.

Salf is the definition of not uniform.

Try a spoonful of table salt instead of sea salt next time and see how well that goes. In grams it does not matter.

Not with salt or anything granular. Liquid is probably fine

Whilst this is nice. I’ve had a color ebook reader for maybe four years. It’s not a new technology.

Anything is better than nothing. This is true. But that doesn’t mean you aren’t wasting your time on something that does the bare minimum.

How?

Duolingo keeps doing mass layoffs, so the bird is overworked. You can help him out by switching to a language learning app that actually helps you learn a language instead of endlessly throwing flash cards at you without teaching you anything! Win win.

This thread is a good example of just how circlejerky and bubble like lemmy has become.

You are correct. Outside of the hard-core users and tech nerds, Ubuntu is massively popular. But you listen to this community, and you’d think the opposite.

This is a good example of how most of the performance improvements during a rewrite into a new language come from the learnings and new codebase, over the languages strengths.

Lol, no, it isn’t. Anyone can set up an apt repository and ask you to use it. Many providers do… You might mean the walled garden of an official singular apt repository is safe.

🤷‍♀️ the snap works absolutely fine with no issues, the flatpak doesn’t exist and the apt is two years out of date.

I’m not on the outrage boat myself tho

I sometimes use a snap

The suyu devs do not understand the legalities behind why yuzu was shut down. It wasn’t because of keys. It was because it could break copyright protection mechanisms, which is in violation of the dmca.

The suyu devs think that by saying, “we don’t support piracy, you have to provide your own keys” is enough, and there’s case law to show it isn’t. Your project needs to be incapable of breaking copyright protection mechanisms with or without keys.

I know we all like to hate on canonical for literally any reason, but this happens with every single software repository that is not a closed garden and some that are.

And yeah, it’s sandboxed, so the damage is far, far less than it could be.

They aren’t spending the money to preserve film either. The best case is storing the film in salt mines, and that only slows the degradation. Film isn’t being digitally scanned unless there’s a uhd release to profit from it, and every week that it isn’t scanned, it degrades a little more

Yeah, I think the ‘successors’ are still in dmca violation (at least one not sure about the other). But it’s still early days, anyway. Yuzu was successful because of the dedicated team behind it. Just setting up other repos doesn’t mean much yet. It’s gonna take months to see how things shake out.

But you can’t deny the potential chilling effect of it all. Nintendo has shown that they will come for you.

Honestly, anyone that was gonna emulate switch already knew, and nintendo has all their big hitters out of the way so isn’t going to be loosing much in terms of sales to piracy at this point. they just want a chilling effect for switch 2

Yeah, licensing fees are super high. Who knows what kind of battery life and displays we might have on our personal devices today if eink wasn’t so encumbered.

I’m gonna just preface this by saying Nintendo suck and I don’t agree with what they are doing.

But it’s worth understanding what is happening here, nintendo isn’t just throwing random legalize against the wall to find something that sticks. They are specifically going after yuzu via a fairly well tested part of the DMCA.

The DMCA allows them this, and if you don’t feel like nintendo or anyone else should get to dictate what device you play the games you own on, you should be looking into whatever you can do to pressure your representatives to add to the many exceptions of that dmca clause for this purpose.

Hdmi is a proprietary format controlled by companies that sell hdmi equipment. They have no benefit to having an open standard. They pay $15k a year each to keep it closed.
