And Gaben is taking more gamers to Linux each year 🥳

This one always surprised me how coal and soul somehow rhyme.

Did you read the faq?

So that’s why it’s called cumsum?

I’m a bit sceptical, especially of governments lagging behind these things. I’m hopeful that this will solve itself or be solved soon though.

Sadly these days people can just tell some LLM to make changes and waste everyone’s time, on top of being fraud in this case

I assume only German citizens can sign this? I upvoted here if that helps, because it sounds like a great initiative, maybe if this gains traction this can go europe wide?

The difficult part is measuring work done I’m afraid though. For volunteer work as e.g. reading books to kids or cleaning streets it’s relatively easy to see that things are happening, even if some are better/faster than others. Unless you’re going to force people to work in live calls or whatever, or just trust self-reporting, that’s going to be hard, no?

Or do you mean more like subsidies for nonprofits working in open source?

Either way, good initiative, I hope for its success!

Years ago I was in a consulting company that had a tld ending in .consulting
So many websites didn’t allow that because of shitty email verification rules that assume outdated tlds…

“What about her emails” Nice try redirecting, did the govt shutdown hurt you directly or are you guzzling Trump’s balls for free or via a third party?

I agree, it could be a last resort when things like ghostery or such fail, but otherwise there’s enough crap saturating the wires, no need to artificially inflate that

I like the theory where (one of) the “great filter(s)” is just the likelihood of a technologically advanced civilization emerging from a greedy society is just way more likely than from a complacent society. So at some point some creature somewhere gets some critical mass of tech fueled by greed, this leads to global domination (humans over animals, as well as europeans over their colonies).

Without the greed, there would not have been the technological advantage, but due to this same greed we now have weapons of mass destruction strong enough to wipe any semblance of intelligent life from the planet.

Of course this theory is very black and white (not to mention capitalistic). Perhaps a curious society is also an option to reach technological advantage but not global domination, but would such a society manage to become a Kardashev type I civilization by sharing rather than conquest?

So to directly answer your question: I think it’s likely that someone would have enslaved most of the earth somehow, (which absolutely does not excuse it). It’s surprisingly good that humans on average dislike the idea of slavery and colonisation now, so maybe we can build on top of that a society of curiosity and progress instead of one of war and a (literal) dead end.

Sounds interesting, want to share a minimal example?

Tldr: vibe coding is for “expert coders” who don’t like to code but instead want to do code reviews of “coders” who never learn. No thanks, I actually like coding

Lmao, seems like some people are forgetting peaceful strikes were the alternative to guillotines. Taking away the peaceful option might not end up the way they hope…

Lmao I hope you get paid in a stronger currency than russian dollars

By that definition? Yes.

The idea that Ukraine lost, and by whomever gave you that idea

Re your latest edit “The fact none of you are able to give a ‘yes or no’ answer” is due to your shitty phrasing mostly. Especially the title “did you” is pretending that Ukraine lost already, and in general you’re projecting a false dichotomy between Russia taking Ukraine or Ukraine taking everything back, while not losing against Russia is already winning (which is what Ukraine is doing)

Did the thought occur that maybe you’ve been fooled?

That’s weird
