  • How to disable Firefox's battery-draining AI features

  • What do y'all think of the live streaming platform, Owncast?

  • Worked great the one time I used it to watch someone

  • Poll: Which abandoned Android phone features do you miss the most?

  • The core apps (like messaging, and calendar) being free software and open source.

  • What a disgusting thing for a human being to do.

  • Young men are 'playing videogames all day' instead of getting jobs because they can mooch off of free healthcare, claims congressman

  • Utter BS

  • Microsoft pushes staff to use internal AI tools more, and may consider this in reviews. 'Using AI is no longer optional.'

  • This is ridiculous. Have people seen the recent AI code review from Audacity?? This whole AI bubble needs to burst already.

  • Judge Rules Training AI on Authors' Books Is Legal But Pirating Them Is Not

    Jump

  • This was my understanding also, and why I think the judge is bad at their job.

  • What a bad judge.

    This is another indication of how Copyright laws are bad. The whole premise of copyright has been obsolete since the proliferation of the internet.

  • The Windows Subsystem for Linux is now open source.

    Jump

  • This is for running Linux programs on Windows. ELI5: some programs are made to run on windows, and some programs are made to run on Linux. Microsoft made a thing for windows that makes it able to run programs that were supposed to run on Linux. That thing is called Windows Subsystem for Linux.

    What windows programs do you have that are not working well on Linux? There are various tools to run windows programs on Linux, and some work better than others for specific programs. I have had good luck with bottles recently, you might try that if you have not already. Other options I've used with great success in the past: ploy on Linux, Lutris, and wine directly. They all us wine at some level, but have tried and tested configuration for various programs to run well, and help with the installation and management of different wine versions. Depending on your windows programs, one option might be to run windows in a VM on Linux, to run those few programs. Another benefit of this way is that your Linux system is somewhat isolated from your windows programs. This can help with privacy and security.

  • Ubuntu Will Replace GNU Core Utilities With Rust

    Jump

  • According to the video it's MIT licence, and they discuss the risk of such a licence vs coreutils usage of the GPL

  • Ghostty 1.0 Released, A New GPU-Accelerated Terminal Emulator

    Jump

  • Yes. But it doesn't have to replace your default terminal emulator. You can have multiple and use any of them.

  • Open source is a fire-hose of value...

    Jump

  • I see what you mean. Yes there are great examples like those that offer support contracts for the open source software projects.

    I think one point of confusion here is that as open source licenced projects, they do not restrict commercial use. The companies that lead the development just happen to also offer the best paid support.

    Minor correction: proxmox is AGPL so free to use commercially without their support contract.

  • Open source is a fire-hose of value...

    Jump

  • Ubuntu and LibreOffice are both free for commercial use. Or am I misunderstanding what you mean?

  • Open source is a fire-hose of value...

    Jump

  • It's no longer open source if you restrict commercial usage. Sure, licence your software that way if you want to, but don't call it open source.
