you’d be pessimistic too if you lived under the tsardom and then the ussr. poor guys havent had good leadership in like 500 years.

let them sue, parody is fair use. get that bag king

how lazy do companies think people are? also, why doesnt Firefox see that most of their users dont like ai?

but can I use a random old computer I have in my house to run an instance as long as there are a managable number of users? renting a server isnt self hosting. making one yourself is self hosting.

at our library something like a small tear is generally fine but if its major damage you are fined whatever it’ll cost us to replace the book right then edit: spelling

yeah, homeschooling needs some more regulation.

this sums up my experience with them pretty well too

the dogs we still have (rip the others) were free on Facebook marketplace and they are texas heelers. i love these dogs.

why second-hand? those are the ones she already won’t get anything from.

we dont have an ‘adult’ section, just regular fiction and nonfiction and accompanying sections for ya and junior. i have no idea what a ya nonfiction book is and neither does anyone else who works there rn so nothing has been going to that section.

its especially concerning since we get a lot of people who are the bad kind of homeschoolers. the trump books and audiobooks dont move at all thankfully.

as a public facility, the library is supposed to prioritize what the public is using. because the book was getting used, bullshit can’t even be official.

bluesky is technically decentralized, but the way it does it makes self-hosting all but impossible due to storage requirements. because of that, it really isnt. its like how a lot of ai models are ‘open-source’ even though the training data isnt available and the ai is still effectively a black box. it isnt decentralized unless anyone can make an instance, just like how it isnt open-source unless you have access to everything that makes it work (yes, by this definition chromium and android aren’t truly open-source, and I stand by that).

i hope they do something related to vr so I can finally have a sane and simple solution for Linux pcvr

there’s already a dock

is that a thing?

how my phone looks at me every time google does anything

definitely 3

i cant wait for mobile Linux to be ready, I will switch in a heartbeat.

no, I mean a whole dumb terminal (basically a digital typewriter that was used for early computers) but using paper as its display. I’m pretty sure that was a thing before the digital ones but I want to see one that works with modern linux
