European Commission cuts funding support for Free Software projects in c/[email protected]

As long as public money -> public code, this could potentially be a net positive for stopping predatory AI practices from Microsoft and buddies. Still, taking away funding from other projects could also be catastrophic for everything else.

Yup, I think that's genuinely my case as well. I know I can pull it off, I just don't want to for the time being.

‘Uncontacted’ Indigenous group attacks loggers in the Peruvian Amazon in c/[email protected]

“It is very tense in the zone. Everyone there is afraid"

Yeah I'd be afraid too of Peruvians trying to obliterate their own soil. Well done to the indigenous group for protecting their interests - they surely got there much earlier.

You can see for yourself how (surprisingly) well they mesh up with the sci-fi theme that Warframe has going on.

We've seen how good they go with Warframe, it's going to be another bop

We've already seen how nicely Nine Inch Nails fits in the Warframe universe - this piece of news is overwhelming.

Privacy in academia? (feddit.nl)
 

Hi everyone,

I've been checking this forum but I have not managed to find duplicates (I'm using Summit for Lemmy). If that's the case I'll remove this post.

I'm about to start a PhD. I've been told I will be required to partake in publications and other shenanigans. I am not against it, but I'm very concerned about having my full name flying around the internet, as I've always been hesitant of sharing any of that information (real name, pictures, etc).

Ultimately, I only care for potential employers to know that it's actually me the one who has written this or that, which I would happily disclose in private.

What's the usual stance in this situation?

KRunner vs Application Launcher (use cases?) (feddit.nl)
 

Lately, I found out that Application Launcher also features all the functionality I use from KRunner.

In my particular experience, Application Launcher is snappier at first launch and also returns results rather quickly. For me, this begs an obvious question.

What's the use case for using KRunner over the Application Launcher?

So far I've noticed that pressing Enter on the Calculator results makes the entry be copied on KRunner, but this does not happen for the Application Launcher. I'm certain there must be something else to it, otherwise people would not be using it (even I found myself using it from time to time, but could not understand why).

Day/Night Switcher has arrived to Plasma 6! (store.kde.org)
 

You can find and download the project from the KDE Store and from https://store.kde.org/p/1804745/

Hey guys,

Just wanted to tell you that Day/Night Switcher has been finally ported to Plasma 6. I couldn't have done this with the interest by the community on the project's continuation. Anyway, let us all enjoy it.

I am only posting this in the hopes that old users who moved to Plasma 6 may catch up on the news.

See you around, kids!
