There's really not much locking us in to GitHub. Even moving an existing repo is not that hard. I started using Codeberg a few months ago and have yet to see the downside

Yeah it's hilarious all the people (who probably aren't even Star Trek Fans) who went on massive rants about the show before it was even released. I look forward to all their heartfelt apologies.

Phone hardware is getting locked down too, making it much harder to install custom ROMs. This is a full court press on our rights to use our devices as we want. They'll close most of the loopholes.

Brings new meaning to Google's decision to (effectively) block side loading on Android

It's always worth remembering that the people who dislike something tend to be the loudest.

There's no doubt reactions to Discovery have been mixed. Personally, I enjoyed it. It was uneven and flawed and sometimes frustrating. But there were enough good moments to keep me going. I don't think anyone can tell you if you'll enjoy it... You just have to try it and see.

Everyone is terrified of all the social problems AI is causing, but maybe it will just encourage everyone to learn Linux and we'll achieve utopia.

I will usually google that kind of thing first (to save the rainforests)... Often I can find something that way, otherwise I might try an LLM

The bubble bursting doesn't mean AI will go away and no one will ever use it again, just as the dot com burst didn't mean people stopped using the web.

It just means the VC money will eventually dry up, the hype will die down, and we'll start seeing AI as a useful tool, with plenty of porblems, rather than the dawn of a new age or whatever. Oh and the stock market will be bad for a while.

Exactly. If there are major terrorist attacks, Trump will use that to justify more authoritarianism.... It's win/win for him

Except they didn't interrupt voting. Go and watch the video, Maipi-Clarke clearly gives TPMs vote before the haka started. The fact that the report claims they interrupted voting clearly shows how bullshit the process was.

I think it's you who are on your high horse. Claiming there needs to be some kind of "decorum" over a bill designed to strip rights from Maori is utter bullshit and frankly racist.
