Wrote up a blogpost covering the most common AGPL misconceptions I see based upon my experience of looking into open source licensing over the last couple of years:

Really good post! As someone who is contributing to AGPLv3+ projects, this was quite interesting to read. ^^'


Holy shit, the incus-migrate program worked really, really well. I moved my Passbolt instance from an XCP-ng VM to an Incus container in minutes.

Does your favorite Starfleet uniform belong to your favorite Trek?

reshared this

in reply to Jer Warren

my favorite uniforms are from DS9, but I watched very little of DS9
in reply to Jer Warren

DS9 is, by far, my favorite Trek. But, the only uniform I ever spent more than a moment thinking about was the one Seven of Nine wore.

Why do I only forget to run screen when I run a job that takes a horribly long time to complete?





If I were to install a BSD on a laptop for learning purposes, which one should it be? Is there one with a better Plasma Desktop experience (assuming Plasma Desktop runs on BSD)?


When I started using Plasma 6 I thought Discover was so slow and annoying that I uninstalled it from two computers and continued installing software and updating my system from the command line. Some months later I love Discover and I've reinstalled it on machines that it had been removed from.


Audacity's Noise Reduction is actually pretty good, but you have to have enough time to screw around a lot. Or maybe that's because I lack experience.



Just spent 7 hours moving a modem and setting up some Omada access points and a controller at a church. Definitely impressed with how easy device setup was.



Dear recruiter,

No, factoring in the overtime hours to boost the potential salary you're offering doesn't make me want the position now.

Sincerely,
Really really not interested

I really love Rescuezilla. I don't have to use it that often anymore, but when I need it, it's my go to cloning and rescue utility.

Heya everyone, I thought I posted this here last night, but apparently I didn't..

I regret to inform you that the Screen Shot Off The Record plugin that we linked to briefly was found to have a key logger and was sending screen shots to unwanted parties.

So if you have this plugin installed, you will want to remove it immediately.

You can see our official post about this at pidgin.im/posts/2024-08-malici…

We are planning a more indepth post in the near future.

👋 Hi everyone!
We're the team behind Zen Browser! You can follow us for updates about the project :^)

#zen #zenbrowser #browser

Steven reshared this.

in reply to Zen

great browser, using it as we speak.

Can I suggest an option to implement here?

in reply to Döbbie03

@dobbie003 thank you!
There's always room for suggestions, but due to the exponential growth the project got, we don't know if we're able to do something with at the moment.
in reply to Zen

to be expected, I think we all know unless you're a magician, nothing happens overnight. :D

Rather than a selection of preset colour schemes, can you look at implementing an option where we can choose say three of our own colour choices? Similar to how Vivaldi do it?

in reply to Döbbie03

zen-browser.app/themes 👀
A small collection but steadily growing, and also has the option for u to chose the 5 primary colors and make it a theme to your liking.

I finally got around to putting the longer power cables on my monitors so I can operate the standing desk more freely. And it's great.

Why is Typo3 so hard to get working? The thing about WordPress, no matter how much you love or hate it, after a simple install you have a functional site/blog.

No major distro drops this week. I was fortunate enough for a lifelong friend to come into town for drinks on Monday, and I had tickets to a networking event in a party suite at the Orioles game on Tuesday, which really cut into my 'test new stuff and take screenshots' time. Still, some cool crap happened this week ...

Really great write-up about #friendica by @_elena!

"I have often heard people describe Friendica as the Fediverse’s answer to Facebook. [...]

I would say Friendica is an incredibly powerful aggregator of social networks and online content."

@Stefan Bohacek @Elena Rossini ✏️✨📸 I’ve been in Friendica for about a year and feel like I’ve only scratched the surface. I only added News RSS feeds since reading your article @_elena. I guess I’m a slow learner.

@pkboi you’re not a slow learner Iain! Friendica is complicated *by design* - I guess the goal was to offer as many customizations as possible, but the user experience can be overwhelming at times. I’ve been using it for 3 weeks now and I also feel like I’m just scratching the surface 😅

feels like a missed opportunity to adopt the matrix protocol, which is already proven in federated chat. I still hope we still see that in the future!

"The federated chat feature is ased on the Open Cloud Mesh (OCM) open standard developed at CERN with the help of Nextcloud and other open source projects."

May i offer you a "b"? 😉
