Nice off-topic comment. Pretty sure by now everybody is aware of that (and other posts) on the topic of using a license.

91·6 months agoand the kernel folks just went “it is the kernel, everything is critical”
tl;dr: this is pretty much an elaborate “go fuck yourself” towards shady ‘security’ companies.
Apologies for my ignorance, but could you elaborate?
I’m sincerely not seeing the connection between saying everything is critical as a go fuck yourself towards those companies.
Is it a ‘death by quantity’ thing?
102·6 months agoWhen we finally figure out and understand, in a real world mechanical sort of way, quantum mechanics, all bets will be off.
It’ll open up a new perspective on the Universe (dare I say Metaverse?), and where we fit in with everything.
Try Fedora’s KDE spin (which uses Wayland).
I always thought it has the best hardware support.
I run a dual monitor setup, with no issues, and game often.
Really happy to see them continuing to improve on their multi-monitor support.
From the article…
On Wayland, KWin can now be configured to pull color profile information from the monitor’s EDID metadata where present. Note that color profile information in EDID metadata is often wrong, so use this setting with caution.
Can anyone speak towards why the EDID metadata is often wrong?
Edit: TY to all who responded.
What do you think of Fedora? So far I enjoy the stability combined with near-arch levels of getting new updates!
I switched away from other distros to Fedora (KDE spin), and am happy here.
Do I wish they were better open-source citizens, yes, of course! But they’re still allot better than Microsoft/Windows close-source solution.
And as far as the distro goes, its nice to have solid support for hardware, and a good rolling release cycle that doesn’t brick my OS, and that has quick support for gaming, etc.
If you’re the type of person who wants a Windows alternative OS to use as just a tool for gaming/business first and foremost, and not to tinker with the OS for fun (unless they want to), Fedora is the best, and what we all should be proposing to others when they ask about moving to Linux.
22·6 months agoI’m sorry if I made you feel that way.
I appreciate that, thank you for saying that. And no, it wasn’t you, its just been a ‘busy’ week for me here on Lemmy is all.
And TY for the education on join-lemmy.org.
I feel like you’re missing the point. Maybe I wasn’t clear. Yes, Lemmy World does use it, however it’s a feature of Lemmy itself, not just of Lemmy World. Lemmy World is just one instance of Lemmy and they all use the same markup.
My point is calling it the Lemmy.World markup is inaccurate and potentially misleading. Lemmy is more than just Lemmy.World.
I understand, but also, I was speaking directly to the link that exists in the Lemmy.World’s web-based editor, I have no access to any other web-based or otherwise editors from other servers.
If the Lemmy.World web-based editor is maintained by the Lemmy devs themselves, then it is a Lemmy editor, agreed.
I’m not aware either way though if it is/not, and I’ve been arguing with people that take any slight ambiguity from me as ammo to attack me with, so I was being very specific, based on my own personal use-case and the specific server URL of the link I was speaking of.
Right, so it’s a Lemmy thing, not a Lemmy world thing,
It’s a Lemmy World web client editor thing.
It’s a help page that shows how to format your comments.
That’s not a lemmy.world link
When you hit reply to a comment from the web client, there are several editor buttons you can press, like ‘B’ for bold font, ‘I’ for italic, etc. The farthest to the right is a circle with a ‘?’ mark in it. The link I supplied is the same as pressing that button.
So if you don’t trust the link I gave you, go to https://lemmy.world/ in your web browser, and hit the reply button for any comment, and then press the circle with a ‘?’ inside of the circle button, and you’ll be taken to the same page as “https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/users/02-media.html”.
The disclaimer at the end of your comment doesn’t render properly. At least, on Thunder
Yep, it’s an issue with your client.
You’ll need to bug the Thunder client devs to support superscript and subscript fonts, per these Lemmy.World instructions.
The built-in search function works quite well I would say
The UX is a bit funky, but the results are good.
That’s a heavy subject.
I know it’s not popular and I’m typically against it but I was listening to a podcast and it made me think there are absolutely important communities that shouldn’t be on a centralised platform like Reddit. The contents of them are so important that it should be on the Open Social Web.
I totally agree.
I don’t see any reason why we can’t have Reddit mirrors, especially for the really important stuff, if they are marked as such, in the same way that Lemmy accounts can mark themselves as bot accounts.
People are welcome not to subscribe to them if they don’t want to see that content, but having the content be on Lemmy only helps Lemmy grow stronger, by allowing Reddit users to migrate over to Lemmy.
Plus, the important stuff is not lost, if a corporation shits their bed.
You do know that isn’t how licenses work?
From a comment on HN…
To the outside observer, it seems like it’s not a carefully taken business decision but some random engineer who wanted to learn rust and flutter.
I was trying to find some medicine today and realised I need a better system to organise what I have and know what I don’t have. Currently, everything is kind of thrown into a drawer.
I have a specific container (blue tupperware-like food bucket with a thin silver handle, that has holes in it for ventilation, and is normally used for holding vegetables and such in the kitchen) for my medicines.
Inside of the container is divided with a piece of cardboard into two zones, one zone for one set of medicines that I taken at one time of the day, and another set that I take at another time.
I find this a lot easier while at home than having to constantly refill pill boxes, and I only use pill boxes for when I’m traveling.
As far as ordering new stuff, I try to keep one extra of every medicine that I have, and when I finish one medicine and I’m opening the next bottle of that same medicine, that’s the time I call the pharmacy and order a replacement. On the fly inventory management basically. I store these extra meds in a bag that also goes into the blue container. The fact that they are in a bag separates them from my other medicines, it’s my inventory area.
You’re welcome. I appreciate you helping out with normalizing signature lines.
