Anyone knows if they’ll have everything upstreamed in the kernel?
Edit: also, if they’ll go through the trouble of getting Google to consider some form of android as verified per the Google play integrity API? (Pls work with the graphene folks)
We’ll go with bare-metal Linux—no Halium, no libhybris. We want to stay as close to mainline as possible and actively contribute upstream.We’ll develop everything openly. Our policy is to publish code, collaborate with the community, and be transparent. Free software, for us, is a matter of principle—not just legal compliance.

Frankly maybe it shouldn’t be able to produce any residential number period. Whether it is made it by accident or not, of all the things that AI does unpredictably, this should be pretty easy to put guard rails up for. In film industry we’re not even allowed to display a phone number that doesn’t fall under the fake list (yes there is one! There is a set range of numbers that are not given out that can be used for film and television).
Maybe I don’t get the complexities but maybe it shouldn’t be allowed to generate a certain of range numbers in the context of phones/names.

Half the problem with autism and adhd both is difficulty with habit formation and maintenance.
You don’t need habits. You need routines with reliable contextual triggers. They’ll fail from time to time and you will just have to be okay with that, and try to figure out exactly what made them fail when they do so maybe you can fix it going forward. But it will still occasionally fail.
You can’t make a sieve not leak without making it not a sieve.
That's why I have my meds, deodorant, shoes, hair brush, and hair ties on/near my coffee table. I make my coffee every morning, sit at the couch and (except brushing my teeth) get ready for the day. I let my brain put things where it'll actually use them.
I just moved a few weeks ago. At my last place all of that was in my kitchen. It's weird how moving changes where my brain wants to do stuff

I have a "Unsorted-NEW" and "Unsorted-OLD". When everything is too cluttered I rename "Unsorted-NEW" to "Unsorted-Number" and move it to "Unsorted-OLD" along with the previous iterations. Then I make a new "Unsorted-NEW" and put the clutter in it. Which I'm totally going to sort and not just leave there and forget about it until everything's too cluttered again...
...
... ... ... that actually made more sense before I tried to explain 😓

Hi,
I'm looking for a soft to create ASCII diagram like (or better)
asciiflow.com/
ideally:
- FLOSS
- for linux
- offline
- no javascript.
I've found a candidate ascii-draw and it's write in Python ❤️ 🐍, but it's only available as flatpack.. :/
Hi, I've a question, that is not a bug report... I think It could be good to have the github tab discussions open for such thing... or do you use another space for that ? Lemmy community or somethi...BobSquarePants (GitHub)
I'm not sure why you wouldn't want the ASCII-Draw flatpak, but that's not the only way to get it:
- there's a Snap
- it can be installed from source
- there's also an AUR package
But maybe you're not on Arch, don't like Snaps (can't blame anyone for that) and don't want to install from source (same)? What type of package are you looking for? Only native package? For which distro?

Very resonable (imo) response from Gargron (lead developer of Mastodon):
I’ve forwarded your question to our legal help and will provide an answer as soon as they give it to me. What you must understand is that our lawyers don’t have experience with federated platforms, and we don’t have experience with law, so we meet somewhere in the middle. Meta presumably has an in-house legal team that can really embed themselves in the problem area; our lawyers are external and pro-bono and rely on us to correctly explain the requirements and community feedback. The draft has been around for something like a year and none of the community members pointed out this issue until now. I’ll add one thing:
"My assumption, {.. shortened for brevity ..} is that when you post content it gets mirrored elsewhere, and this continues until a deletion notice is federated. So I'd assume if an instance somewhere mirrors my content they can't get in trouble for it, and I'd also assume that if there is a deletion or maybe a block and a reasonable interpretation of the protocol would say that the content should be removed, I could send them a takedown and at that point they'd have to honor it."The goal of the terms is to make assumptions like this explicit, because assumptions are risky both sides. Just because luckily there were no frivolous lawsuits around this so far doesn’t mean there isn’t a risk of one.
Cory has had a much more calm response on a fediverse post, offering to reach out to the EFF's lawyers for assistance in drafting a better ToS for Mastodon, and other experienced lawyers have offered help also. Amongst the usual negativity from some users.
I'll be keeping my eye on the outcome but so far it looks positive.

I've been meaning to switch my pc to linux for a while but have only recently gotten enough time to switch.
Is there anything that I would need a dualboot for? I was previously concerned with VR, specifically using a quest wirelessly. I heard about a year ago that it is possible but not the best. Has it improved since then?
And is there anything else I would still need a windows machine for? I don't know specifically what doesn't work and I don't mind using FOSS alternatives.
I was running a raspberry pi with raspian on it as a homelab for a few years (until the SD card died 🙁 I still need to fix that) so I am not completely unfamiliar with linux and the terminal and am willing to use it to make programs work as long as they work as well as they would on windows.
(I've decided on swapping to mint if that matters)

Every other time I hear someone mentioning dual booting between Windows and Linux, it's where M$ pushed out some update that borked the dual booting.
Personally, I'd recommend running Windows in a virtual machine instead, or Linux in a virtual machine, your choice whichever OS you want to run as the main host OS..
How do you think image enhancement has always worked? Do you think AI tools are ignoring 30-years of Photoshop equations?
And no, we shouldn't be fiddling with primary sources. Do you think Wikipedia is a primary source?
Hi! I'm trying out Nix and I'm trying to set up and organize everything. Usually I put all my configs in a directory which is also a git repo and synced to my NAS, using the same subfolders they'd be in, and use GNU Stow to symlink the top-level folders (/dotfiles/home/
to /home/username/
, /dotfiles/etc
to /etc
and /dotfiles/usr
to /usr
) and let it do its thing. Would it cause problems to also do that for configuration.nix?
On Arch I already had a /dotfiles/etc
symlinked to /etc
for my custom keyboard layouts, which worked fine... until the update which moved the location of the GUI keyboard layouts. It prevented the update so I undid the symlinks, updated, and put them again to the new location... but somehow it broke everything except the tty and no Wayland compositor I tried would work anymore (and there went my record of having never broken Arch since the first install over a year ago 😅 )
So I'm kinda wary of doing it on an even more critical file... but also I'm very lazy and having everything in a single repo is very convenient... How do you do it?
Also, cars are dangerous AF. Tens of thousands of people die a year because of them. Hence why we have licenses and maintenance rules and an unbelievably extensive road system with clear signals and lights.
And despite all these rules, the number of car deaths is much greater then any other cause of death. It's not a lack of rules that are the problem with cars (nor guns).
