Hi there, kind of surprised that a 2026 device which offers desktop functions through a hub, comes with a usb 2.0 bandwidth through its usb-c.

I mean this prevents using the graphical capabilities of the phone itself. The hub uses a dedicated weak igpu called displaylink.

This is a red flag for me sadly :(. Everything else seemed pretty great.

You can achieve wealth and happiness way faster if you rob all other countries of their resources. But if it is feasible, must it still be done ?

Kind of the same thing with LLM. It’s not because you can that you should.

As you said, LLM is killing OS communities. It’s preventing people from working together, now they are all “I don’t need you, I can do it my way all alone”, and you get 50 clones or similar softwares, which aren’t finely tuned since it’s all LLM.

As you didn’t say, LLM has a huge impact on the planet, it costs a lot of electricity, it uses clean water which it evaporates in data center, but we don’t care because guess what, we have it in our hands and it’s so much fun to use ! And well, we ourselves are not responsible for the planet’s state, it’s the big bad company that create LLM, I’m just using it because otherwise, the other will do so !

What’s next ? After coding our own little games and softwares alone and ultra-quickly I mean.

Who pays the bills ? Who will pay the next one, and where is humanity going ? Not sure I want to know.

AI Searchers are quitting their jobs being scared of what they enabled Companies are being hacked by LLM without control People are losing their jobs because of LLM (and I think those are not the ones using LLM in the OS Community, because oh, the irony it would be)

Society clearly isn’t ready for any of this, and saying “don’t care” doesn’t make it fine.

Edit : this is cleary not on or against you, I’m simply expressing my frustration on this subject with arguments and examples I hope should make people realize things x)

Diversity is important, yet dividing to much puts too much weight on everyone shoulder.

Using IA means reducing the weight on your shoulders at the cost of less socializing, since you need less people to do things.

Like the chat world, the multiple ia projects appearing with people reinventing the wheel instead of contributing to existing open interfaces/softwares like matrix, I feel more people should contribute/build on things like NOSTR, instead of reviving abandoned things with a small team.

Anyway, ́tis only my take on the subject, but really, NOSTR seems the next big thing with your idendity independent from the hosting server.

You don’t say ?! C’est vraiment surprenant, venant de lui ! Qui aurait pu prédire ?!

Didn’t know, thank you :)

Oh ok, thanks !

Sorry for the stupid question, but what is OF ?

There never was. It was only a sea of different instant messenger protocols, and each had their pros and cons. So much that you had meta messengers, doing multiple protocols. Trillian for example. You had to get multiple accounts and softwares to get everyone.

Je m’emmerderais pas avec la belgique pour 20€

I personally use DietPI on my headless servers, which is a derivative of debian, and PikaOS on my personal computer, which is the bazzite equivalent of debian. It’s great really :). At this stage, i’ve been so used to debian derivatives that I simply don’t want to use time to learn another distro’s specific ways. I’ve tried mandrake and rpm years ago, but debian simply was the golden standard I used at school and on PI.

It’s kinda hard to accept they are debuting paid work on something that only works on pre-2022 devices… I do understand the recycling idea behind this, but next time I change my phone and look up for a linux compatible phone, I already know I won’t be buying a pre-2022 device :(…

PikaOS

Depends on your choice

Rdna 2 was successful, I really thought they were back, the cards were good, they forced nvidia to make a competitive 3070.

And then they threw the ball. I don’t understand.

Hi,

I’ve been on seafile for years, I see no reason for the docker install to scare you.

I’ve been meaning to migrate to an european alternative (seafile is essentially chinese), but none seem to have the notion of zero-trust.

I’ve checked both opencloud and sync-in. In both cases, if you are the admin, you can access every one’s files. For now at least. This means a hacker accessing your server could also get the files uncrypted.

This is a no-go for me, I want my friends to be able to trust my instance so they can use it. Seafile has that : you can create an encrypted collection which asks for a second password when you open it.

Surely awesome, but sync is one-side only. This is a nogo for my usecases.

Seafile has fuse for accessing it as a folder.

Hmmm… babel ? :D

This is… but the prologue. Steel yourself. You’ll need it.

Good to know :)
