Imagine if debates weren't aired live either. It would just serve as proof as to what fools politicians made of themselves in order to provoke a reaction. Imagine if the only way to know about what's going on in a debate was to read the transcript or read commentary from the press. If the recorded video of what happened during the debate is only released after elections are over, it disincentivizes making the debate into an entertainment shitshow.

Yes but the browser engine isn't really the main selling point. Kagi is building Orion Browser with zero telemetry, native ad blocking, and support for Firefox and Chrome extensions. It's privacy respecting, fast, and extensible. Support for other platforms are also planned.

It's kinda absurd if you think about it. We're here arguing about Standard Time vs Daylight Saving Time while people are literally dying every year due to losing sleep every spring. I wish more states would just bypass Congress and revert back to Standard Time.

Who needs to sudo apt install firefox when it already comes preinstalled on most distros?

Just started using Lemmy more because my favorite app is back! Definitely impressed with the UI/UX. Familiar and easy to use!

Exactly. Not everything needs to be a goddamn SPA!

Svelte is for if you hate React and like vanilla JavaScript. Solid or Next is if you like React.

For example Red Hat Enterprise Linux. They're FOSS but they charge money for support.

Then send thoughts and prayers when it happens over and over again. We've done nothing to fix the problem and there's nothing we can do about it!

I'm subscribed to three publications: The New York Times, The Washington Post, and Foreign Affairs. I regularly read articles from The Atlantic, The New Yorker, Foreign Policy, The Diplomat, and other publications like ProPublica. I also read academic blogs on journalism, nuclear weapons, and other topics. I follow a lot of academics and experts on Twitter to get their hot takes.

+1 for Fedora. Red Hat's new policy to restrict open source code though, IDK.

I basically only use git merge like Theo from T3 stack. git rebase rewrites your commit history, so I feel there's too much risk to rewriting something you didn't intend to. With merge, every commit is a real state the code was in.

After the (temporary) defederation announcement of earlier i checked the Lemmy repo to see if there was already a ticket on the federation limiting option like Mastodon’s that people mentioned Lemmy doesn’t yet have. Not only i didn’t find it, i also saw that there’s about 200+ open tickets of variable importance. Also saw that it’s maintained mostly by the two main devs, the difference in commits between them and even the next contributors is vast. This is normal and in other circumstances it’d grow organically, but considering the huge influx of users lately, which will likely take months to slow down, they just don’t have the same time to invest on this, and many things risk being neglected. I’m a sysadmin, haven’t coded anything big in at least a decade and a half beyond small helper scripts in Bash or Python, and haven’t ever touched Rust, so can’t help there, but maybe some of you Rust aficionados can give some time to help essentially all of Lemmy. The same can be said of Kbin of course, although that’s PHP, and there is exacerbated by it being just the single dev.

I've been using Kagi for about a month, and I have to say the searches are excellent! No more wasting time searching through over-SEO'd ad-ridden crap! Just high quality results!
