That’s exactly right. Users will have to purchase phones on credit like we do for every other major (and sometimes minor) purchase. This doesn’t change the relationship between carriers and their customers at all. It only changes their accounting.

This is the first such prime that was discovered using GPU cloud computing. It’s not just an incredible new discovery, but also a demonstration of what this type of hardware network may be capable.

It’s a very stable, reliable, local, cross-platform file syncing that is pretty easy to set up. Basically, it allows you to have a shared folder (or folders) on multiple devices without using Google Drive, OneDrive, iCloud, etc.

Oh No! This is terrible news. This IMHO is one of the most irreplaceable projects out there. I don’t know of another cross-platform local file syncing app that comes anywhere close to this. I hope that it can continue even if it’s not through the Play Store.

Google seems to be torpedoing open source developments with a number of decisions lately. Maybe they see F-Droid as a threat now that EU is making them open competition? Maybe they just don’t care.

Breaking news, obvious scam is a scam.

Has anybody heard of any plan or idea to reduce microplastics? We’ve been hearing all this research over the past five years especially about all of the scary places we’re finding microplastics (like our brains, and testicles, and the top of Mt. Everest). I have yet to hear about any studies into reducing microplastics.

Literally the plot of Wall-E

This was pretty useful to me.

For android, I use Feeder, but I’ve also enjoyed Cappy, Neo Feed, Twine, and Nunti. Nunti is a really interesting one that uses a local, private smart algorithm to show you more of what interests you.

That’s surprising. I found it be underpowered as an RSS reader, personally. Although I am really only using it for news - I know some people who use it for videos, etc.

Feedly, Fluent Reader, NewsBlur, yarr, etc.

Thunderbird is fine, but I don’t really want to interact with my feed how I interact with email.

Fair… but recognizable. I meant in the generic sense like Kleenex or bandaids.

There is also liberapay, etc.

Don’t worry, one those will die out soon

Do the eyes glow red if it becomes self aware?

There seems to be this very unpleasant new model of development, where companies start off as nonprofits, often employing open source or permissive licenses. Then at a certain point once they have leveraged that to scale, and they snap back permissions and licenses or close new development. Then they transfer ownership or organizational structure to be for profit.

I think it’s a really toxic and damaging approach that jeopardizes the social contract making open source software possible.

I almost feel like we need a new system for open source that examines organizational structure. An open source project that’s receiving millions in VC should not be in the same category as an open source project that’s funded on Patreon or directly by users.

You can’t prove it’s not hexadecimal.

Keen observers will notice the obvious anachronism in this photo. Of course, I’m referring to none other than the notched lapel of the general’s outer jacket. Although he certainly was well known for his double breasted suits, the president could not possibly have worn a notch lapel jacket, which we’re not popularized until over 100 years later in the 1880s. Truly preposterous and whimsical.

I don’t see any indication that this is limited to the Euclidean plane either

OOOoooooOOOOOh

Thanks, can anyone eli6?

Can anyone eli5?
