why not matrix?
wouldn’t it have been easier to just read the source code? (not that GNU’s code is easy to read, but still)
It is
EDIT: I’m wrong, I don’t know what I was thinking, I misremembered hearing something apparently. Thank you for the corrections
Thank you! More people should do this. It may seem like $5 is nothing, but it’s actually great help. Even $1 helps out FOSS projects, as if even just 1% of the users of such projects donated $1 each month that’d be able to make a good income,
is not exactly Google Maps in terms of usability, but it’s a functional map
I would personally say that it’s better than Google Maps. It’s more accurate at least
click the button that says more then add a shortcut to your favorite map service
Actually other search engines do much better with Lemmy. Kagi’s search works wonders if you select the filter for Fediverse Forums. And you can assign that filter to a bang, such as !lemmy, so that when you search “!lemmy query here” it’ll search only on the fediverse A few examples:
And this ladies and gentlemen is another reason why we should try to escape big tech’s grasp.
I prefer the extremely intuitive:
["grep -P "PPid:\t(\d+)" /proc/$$/status | cut -f2 | xargs kill -9")
]=system(
or
i:!grep -P "PPid:\t(\d+)" /proc/$$/status | cut -f2 | xargs kill -9[esc]Y:@"[cr]
It just rolls off the fingers, doesn’t it?
Edit: damn it lemmy didn’t like my meme because it assumes that characters between angle brackets are html tags :( you ruined it lemmy
EDIT 2: rewrote it, just assume that square brackets are buttons not characters
The more you know! I don’t follow their blog so I didn’t realize this. This is a pleasant surprise and yet another reason to love Mullvad.
Doesn’t match my experience. The worst thing about it is ping, but download is mostly always around 100-200.
Let’s remember, fellas, that big tech is not a disease that needs to be eradicated. Let us not forget that Google is a legitimate corporation, not merely a group of professional stalkers. And let’s be clear: obviously you are the crazy ones for worrying about this, naturally…
Pardon my jest; I was merely echoing the absurdities often heard.
Maybe just maybe it’s time we stop with this garbage and actually stop using their services. Nothing will change if we keep using their services.
The most direct and effective strategy to inspire reform in their practices is to stop using of their platforms. Each time we use a service from Google or any similar big tech entity, we inadvertently endorse their methods.
YOU hold the power to change them by using FOSS alternatives instead.
Matrix VoIP is a thing, and it’s usable for audio & video on many clients, element and fluffychat come to mind, but probably more.
element call is also coming into element (and possibly other clients) for video calls and screensharing
why does that matter?
