  • Any good alternative to Google Translator in Android?

    Jump

  • Not same results as DeepL but.. You can use any popular online LLM for excellent translation. There are also "small" language models that you can run on your phone (if you havet a reasonable modern/powerful phone that is): https://github.com/mlc-ai/mlc-llm

  • Something's fishy with the votes

  • Yes. That was it. Don't know why the setting changed.

  • EU OS

    Jump

  • Actually, what we probably want is something like openSUSE MicroOS with containers based on Nix or Guix.

    Best would be if openSUSE simply adopted Nix/Guix for container configuration.

  • EU OS

    Jump

  • Don't forget about Nix and Guix.

  • EU OS

    Jump

  • I think it makes great sense to use Nix (or better Guix). The users are not expected to do any configurations. They basically need a browser and maybe a text editor if it's the public sector.

    Also, you can run Nix or Guix on basically any other dist. Which is very helpful for reproducible deployments.

    Ubuntu doesn't make any sense. Better use Debian in that case. We don't need to give yet another eccentric South African billionaire more power.

  • EU OS

    Jump

  • SUSE is owned by the Swedish venture capital firm EQT. For better or worse. All software has "ties" to the US. Remember there are lots of good people in the US as well. Everything isn't MAGA or tech feudalism.

  • EU OS

    Jump

  • I agree. Most Linux distributions have their base within the EU. Just dumb to bring a new Fedora based dist to the table. Debian is also very connected to the EU and France, even though the SPI is registered within the US.

    One could push for The Linux Foundation to to move their HQ to the EU. If that changes anything. I guess it depends on if Linus resigns or wants to move back to Finland.

  • Should we boycott games with loot boxes?

    Jump

  • Yes.

  • Trump cuts funding to FOSS projects.

    Jump

  • What languages and patterns will be considered woke?

    For sure memory safety and dependent types. C++ will probably be shoved down our throats.

  • The problem is neoliberalism. It imples fascism or feudalism. The Democrats will only accelerate the development as long as they stay neoliberal.

  • Why plans are already in motion for a Trump third term – no matter what the law says

    Jump

  • The constitution means whatever the guy with the biggest guns says it means.

    Jump

  • It is impossible to write an eternal constitution. Believing that is the biggest flaw of the American mindset.

  • Boycotting FOSS projects in the wake of the "buy canadian/european" movement makes no sense

    Jump

  • Totally agree. The majority of Americans are great people. Not everyone is MAGA. We need to support the good ones. Sanctions and boycotts tend to unite.

    One exception would be if the project imposse a security risk because key people and servers, within the US, may be blackmailed or pushed by the new administration. We're not there yet though. And I hope these projects and people migrate if this becomes the case.

    Also, FOSS projects run by big tech are probably also wise to avoid for strategic reasons.

  • Rant! 100GB Log file in Nextcloud.

    Jump

  • I stopped using Nextcloud a couple of years ago after it corrupted my encrypted storage. I'm giving it a try again because of political emergency. But we sure need a long term replacement. Written in Rust or some other sane language.
