As a Gentoo user, I have been eyeballing NixOS and Guix for quite sometime. Just didn't took the plunge yet because I'm too invested on Gentoo ecosystem.

This whole thing at Mozilla is appalling. Using someone's sickness (cancer!) as leverage to play hardball under threat of firing is just disgusting at such a level that I can't describe in words.

Mozilla, what have you became?

Up so far, my experience with Flatpak has been similar. Unfortunately.

I had good experiences with Appimages although.

There's definitely value in Nostr as a long form text publishing platform. But we do need better clients tuned for that.

So far that I know, the only Nostr client going for long form texts is Flycat.club and it has that feeling of early product/project in it.

BeOS. God, I miss that system.

Take a break to avoid breaking yourself.

These "crypto as asset" taxation trend of govt. everywhere is making the use of crypto as daily currency a literal hell for me.

How to avoid that? Or crypto folks are just ignoring the elephant in the room, not declaring anything and be gone with it?

Why not doing anything for a day or two is so frowned upon these days?

Never got this craze of being productive 100% of the time, to the point of making people feel bad by taking half a hour to play a game. This behavior looks to me as a express lane for a mental illness.

I'm quite sure that when I hit it, I will make another excuse to wait up to 50 while I procrastinate. And know what? It has been worth thus far!

Anyone that simps for return to office policies for jobs that can be perfectly done from home must be hung by the balls.

É por conta dessas que Nostr e/ou Fediverso tem de ficar mais popular.

A pessoa não gosta do que lê? Mute no perfil e segue a vida invés de ficar nessas molecagens de querer calar os outros para todo mundo que rede centralizada permite.

Quite amazing that took that long for this idea to take off, given Steam has streaming capabilities for years.

It's like concentric circles of hell.

Yeah, they took long enough to act.

Well, actually it was my browser extension (Flamingo) that where misbehaving. Switched to nox2x and now all is normal and fine with Primal and the relays.

Too bad, I'll miss the looks of Flamingo.

My nostr client is misbehaving. It's not allowing me to post or follow new people. Maybe its a relay issue by the lack of error messages from the client (Primal) is not helping at all.

Going to Coracle for now.

Threads looks to me the same bait and switch that Google Talk/Hangouts/Chat (or whatever Google is calling that now) once did with XMPP/Jabber.

These big-tech will not cease to attempt to make email centralized, or keep decentralized but only among themselves.

Excuse after excuse, they are creating barriers against small players and data sovereign oriented users using their own user base as spearhead.

His contributions to society will live on forever.

The wireless stack is the single greatest Achilles heel of any OS to get mass adoption between residential consumers, specially open source ones that rely on volunteer work. What this guy did is nothing short of amazing and he is without a doubt one the guys that saved Linux from fading into obscurity as a desktop OS early on its history.

Look at the bright side: at least they don't pretend they don't see anymore!

But I guess this is inevitable anyway, too many forces, good and bad, pushing forward AI development.
