what this requires from developers: possibly documenting protocols in an open way when they choose to shut down games so that people can re-implement FOSS servers

“playable” is open to interpretation, and does not include trademarks, copyright, etc… nobody is asking for to allow assets to be traded (ie piracy), or open sourcing any code

but if you have purchased a game, and the servers for that game go away, someone else should be able to re-implement a method for allowing those games to continue being played

… also if DRM servers go away, you should disable the DRM somehow: you don’t get to just say that the DRM and therefor the game isn’t available any more

all of this is not at all knee-jerk, and very realistic

i’ve always kinda thought that putting trams in a loop around the rail lines would be cool… make it like a web

id prefer more trams to busses any day of the week

i mean they literally admit to it in the article… they need to find the “business model” to support it, which could mean a subscription and an expensive price tag… the reason isn’t because it needs ongoing support - it’s because of planned obsolescence

boo hoo we can’t make money off selling you shit every few years so we have to charge you $200 and a subscription

i’m from melbourne, australia which is one of the best places in the world for coffee… when i go to the US i try to find good coffee but our version of good tends to be VERY different

US good is a dark roast - which i find very bitter… australian coffee (and melbourne in particular) is quite a light roast, which is more acidic but less bitter

i find most good coffee in the US to be pretty undrinkable (this probably comes down to choice of preparations: black drip is pretty weak; expresso starts out strong), but a starbucks blonde is… inoffensive (note write relation to your comment: a light right is probably what you’re talking about; especially a light double ristretto… a ristretto is a half shot, twice… the bitterness from coffee comes at the end of the shot, so nero is perhaps a light roast double ristretto… you also tend to get most of the caffeine in the first half i think? so it’s more caffeine if that worries you)

so when i’m in a rush and really just want to not hate what im putting in me, ill find a starbucks not because its good, but because its fucking hard work to find a good coffee that’s also my taste - my usual cues for a cafe just don’t work in the US, and there’s no a fantastic cafe on literally every corner so the choice is even harder

yeah i have my single email account setup with 5 different domains and a multitude of different aliases - including *@auto.<mydomains> so you can sign up for throwaway service@auto.mydomain and nobody knows that it’s a throwaway so it never gets blocked by services (and the + trick in emails is well known by people doing nefarious things with email - they’ll automatically strip the wildcard part out so it can’t be traced)

i can’t remember the last time i got spam… i don’t know if it’s as good as, but it’s not a problem that i’ve noticed

yeah if it wasn’t obvious from the first paragraph, this is the most blatant load of BS i’ve read in a while

we must reckon with the utter amorality of the Democratic Party —which is not to assert that there are no amoral individuals in the Republican Party

“oh we’re impartial we swear! we acknowledge there might be 1 or 2 on our side”

+1 for fastmail… it’s one of those products that isn’t trying to trick you… you pay for it, and it’s just a solid product that tries to be the best at what it is…

it’ll let you have as many domains and aliases as you like, including wildcards for email (and lets you reply/send appropriately using any of those aliases)

it’ll let you pull all your calendars and push events into a single one of your choosing - it doesn’t have to be theirs

i could probably replicate some of what it does with my home server, but it’s really nice that i don’t have to

this post in /r/selfhosted is from 8hr ago: SWEKIT v0.1 - an open source library to build software engineering agents (DEVIN) in a agentic framework agnostic manner!

reddit/redlib: https://redlib.kylrth.com/r/selfhosted/comments/1eb86lf/swekit_v01_an_open_source_library_to_build/

doesn’t appear in DDG results: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=site%3Areddit.com+SWEKIT+v0.1+-+an+open+source+library+to+build+software+engineering+agents+(DEVIN)+in+a+agentic+framework+agnostic+manner!&t=ffit

libredirect helps with that on desktop

(browser extension that turns links to sites like reddit, youtube, etc into links to redlib, invidious)

i’m confused… apple maps wasn’t available on the web? you’ve been able to send apple maps links forever, and they’ve had an embedding api where you could embed apple maps into web pages :/

as another commenter said, for USB-C this isn’t the case: if the wattage is correct, the charging brick and your laptop will “talk to each other” and agree on the voltage to provide

(technically there are some edge cases to this but for a high wattage supply you’re almost certain not going to have to worry about them)

DC adapters (like barrel jacks etc) you do need to match the voltage correctly

however your question is about USB-C cable, and there are different cables rated for different power delivery requirements < 60W any cable is fine, but 60-100W you need a rated cable, and then above 100W you need a higher rated cable again

… i say need here, i’m not sure if you NEED it (as it it won’t work), but the spec says that cables have to have appropriate markings so it’s probably a good rule: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_Power_Delivery#USB_Power_Delivery

consultant for large enterprises in australia, and i literally can’t say i’ve ever seen anyone running anything other than RHEL and amazon linux (so… RHEL) in production… unless we’re talking not for profits, and then that’s been a bit of a mixed bag

if it’s in the correct place, correct read permissions/ownership, etc i’ve noticed that this is also the error that’s thrown when selinux denies the read: in my case i’d created the service file in my home directory, moved it, and because of that it was tagged incorrectly

i’m on my phone and don’t have time to lookup the resolution or how to check, but perhaps someone else can add that detail

it was cheap merch marked up by 1000% and the colour ran in the wash

hey now! they care about justice and world order and protecting people from bullies

just not as much as bullying queers and court orders against abortions and justice for… not being christian?

also the paradox of tolerance

baby steps… patch hole after hole. the alternative is do nothing, and that’s a pretty crap outcome
