Thanks for the new vocabulary. That’s a useful word

Try Jerboa again if you had trouble. The last couple updates were huge leaps forward
EndeavourOS on desktop and laptop. It’s been working great for years
What podcast? I like a good podcast.
Yeah, I feel like that phenomenon happens elsewhere too. I read the book B.S. Jobs last year, and it talked about is all the (debatably) useless positions popping up at companies - extra layers of management, assistants to make the managers feel important, corporate lawyers that are only there to cause trouble for the other team’s corporate lawyers. Just a whole lot of man-hours spent not making products/services/whatever.
(I wouldn’t say I’m 100% on board with all the book’s arguments, but it sure made me think)
I also like air conditioning
I can’t ever find one good label for myself and here you are with four
Not really sure what the label means, but I’ll join you on the less government team!
With more automation showing up in all different fields, I’m warming up to the idea of UBI or something like it.
Theoretically, more production is happening per human being, so everybody should have a higher standard of living. But (among other issues) people at the top are hoarding an unfair portion of the profits, and UBI seems like a straightforward way to help offset that.
Libertarian-ish, I guess.
Watching the US and other governments going on a power trip has sure been pushing me that way.
I mostly don’t want government involved in anybody’s lives unless they’re harming others. It drives me mad when bureaucracy, police, etc. show up to harass, jail, or kill people that were minding their own business. Plus mass surveillance without a warrant.
On the other hand, I recognize the need for appropriate regulations (to avoid harming people on a broader scale). It also makes sense for them to direct large scale projects like infrastructure and certain services.
So, I guess, make life better for people. Otherwise, mind your own business

He’ll always be #1

Always wanted a pet Wingull since I played Emerald. I need to evolve it if it’s actually going to fight though
As the de facto IT guy for my family, I block ads on all their computers just as a basic safety measure.
I can usually spot a fake download button and avoid scammy sites, but my parents and grandparents seem magnetically attracted to them
Hard to believe that got us to the moon
At the bottom of their readme here, they explain their open source licensing. Basically, it’s open source, except you can’t take it and sell it
Yeah, I wonder what the cost breakdown is for transcoding, storage, streaming, etc.
I’m reading their FAQ here, but I’m still not sure how the money and hosting side works yet https://help.odysee.tv/category-basics/whatisodysee/
Edit: looks like it’s at least partially open source, maybe fully. It’s centrally-hosted and funded by ads, premium subscriptions, and some sort of crypto scheme that can boost a video’s discoverability. I’ve actually heard of some of the creators though (unlike PeerTube), so that’s interesting
Fair point. I watch a lot of YT and block ads (though it sounds like they’re finally cracking down on that). I support some creators on Nebula and Patreon, but I guess YT Premium is basically like those.
Check out Ondsel. They’re working on improving FreeCAD and making the workflow not suck.
Still definitely a work in progress, but the dimension/constraint tools and 3D feature naming are already lightyears better in their version.
