I don’t get it… Does this tiny change ruin it for you?

Fastest help is Archwiki, even if you run Ubuntu…
I like GNOME because I don’t want customizability.
OK, I like a bit of customizability, but I’m not a designer and trying to make things look consistent and nice is a pain. I once spent days making an icon theme work in Xfce (the freedesktop standards for naming icons are not followed by anyone… (meaning both Xfce and icon themes))
I use GNOME as is and accept it and everything is swell.
Also I use a laptop and I’m addicted the three-finger swipe window preview…
That’s because of monopolies… There are only two brands of PC CPUs you could own…
What’s going on?! Everyone claiming they own X… while in fact everyone owns X…
I get a lot of pleasure, even laughing by myself hysterically, when I help “Deep Rock” become “Deer Cock”, when I help make “Connecting” into “Cumnecting”, and when with one little pixel I make “Factorio” into a slur…
Is there something wrong with me?
Maybe we should write lemmy somewhere…
hot take: maybe Game of Thrones should have been destroyed
Ok. I understand what you are saying, and there might be historical reasons for the founders of Rocky to believe they can defend better against a takeover by being a PBC. I don’t know if that’s true, I’m not a lawyer. The thing is that if an organization can legally make a profit, I don’t trust that it does not. I’m not trying to insult Greg Kurtzner, I don’t know him. But I wouldn’t need to trust him if they had made a non-profit.
And sure, Alma exists because of funding from corporate interests, but so does the Linux kernel, and GNOME, and probably a large percentage of free software. That’s the point of copyleft, when companies improve free software it remains free.
Personally I’ve never used RHEL, CentOS, Rocky Linux, or AlmaLinux. I was just curious why Fermilab and CERN chose Alma instead of Rocky, which I had heard about more. I found out and I believe they did the right thing, hence the headline. I have no fucking agenda. (maybe you do)
PS: The whole thing, including this post, assumes that Alma and Rocky have the same goal (which apparently is no longer true), and that non-profits can make no money (which… WTF IKEA).
What the fucking fuck!!!
Is it that difficult to get the RHEL source code now? I’m sure some people developing Alma have access to RHEL. I mean, sure, they cancel your subscription if you redistribute it, but how do they know if you do? Even if they put things in the source code to identify who got it, I’m sure they can find a way to get past that.
Well… I posted before seeing this. I guess my point is kind of done now, since Rocky and Alma are no longer aiming for the same thing.
I remember reading about that… Do Chromium users live in a land without ad blockers? How?! Why?!
Pretty sure Chromium has Google tracking, you have to use ungoogled-chromium, and hope they did a good job ungoogling. I don’t know how Chromium based browsers deal with Chromium’s built in tracking…
Someone tell these hot boys about lemmy
I don’t think this is what they mean. If you read the whole paragraph they also talk about “[…]the data that is not covered by end-to-end encryption”…
It says that they have nothing to give on Secret chats, and then: “To protect the data that is not covered by end-to-end encryption[…]” … “Thanks to this structure, we can ensure[…]” … “To this day, we have disclosed 0 bytes of user data to third parties, including governments.”
I mean, I would consider phone numbers, IPs, metadata, non-secret chats (I don’t know if that’s a thing, never used Telegram), to be “user data”.
Telegram states at their site that: “To this day, we have disclosed 0 bytes of user data to third parties, including governments.”
But according to Spiegel this is false. I don’t know German, I read the article using google translate, correct me if I’m wrong.
Here is a quote from the article: “Contrary to what has been publicly stated so far, the operators of the messenger app Telegram have released user data to the Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) in several cases.”
If this is true, the fact that they are lying is very worrying…
Are you Big Brother?
I disagree. It’s very detailed and I think it can both help a novice and help a novice become less of a novice.
