I never looked into flatseal and I don’t have any issues with Steam. But I wonder if flatseal can allow a Flatpak Java application to run systemctl poweroff.

No thank you, no kids.

I like my freedom and that it is quiet.

Why the French, ONY-chan?

Why deliberately go into vendor lock-in?

Good e-mails in general! People have forgotten (over never learned) how to properly write and answer mails.

I dislike touching people or being touched. Not that I have a phobia is suffer from, I just don’t like it and try to avoid it when possible. So no, I am not physically affectionate with other friends (male or female alike).

Before there was a pandemic, touching people for welcome or goodbye was common (i.e “shaking hands”). But fortunately this is no longer the case. There are still some disrespectful and non-considerate persons around who want to touch you just to say hello, but they’re in the minority.

The thing is, you need multiple timings or “complex” calculations depending on placement of the ad or if the user has premium or not. All timestamps after the first slipstreamed ad will be off by the duration of the ad.

I wonder how this will be handled with creator-set timestamps in the video description. Those also will be off. Maybe SponsorBlock can hook into this somehow. Classic adblockers won’t block those ads, though.

Nope, never.

There will be issues with SponsorBlock in the future, though. Instead of adding the advertisements on client side, they will be added directly into the video stream on server side, messing up all timestamps.

Maybe let go of this ancient hardware? Seriously: Get a Raspberry Pi (or whatever SOC computer is the latest trend) and install whatever distribution you want. You get 100x the performance for 100x less power consumption. It’s great to reuse old hardware and all, but THAT old?

It’s just an advertising company that knows to throw in some buzzwords.

Anonym was founded in 2022 by former Meta executives […]. The company was backed by [various venture capital corporations and multiple] strategic individual investors.

Your solution is a database or information management system.

Take more or less of the stuff you’re taking. The current amount is wrong.

I’ve never seen larger projects like Firefox hosted with Forgejo.

So why not use forejo, which is completely open source?

Absolutely! I’d always go the Forgejo route!

The thing is: I don’t see Firefox being hosted with Forgejo. The code base and amount of data might be way too massive. I see Forgejo as a forge for smaller projects.

It absolutely is. Yes. You can run and maintain it on an own server and it is open core (yeah 😥) using the MIT license - unlike GitHub where you have to rely 100% on the goodwill of Microsoft and everything is closed and locked behind a TOS.

Still better than a fully closed, 100% proprietary, cloud-only Microsoft service.

Then don’t use Chrome?

Sad to see they only use MS GitHub instead of selfhosting something like GitLab. Just another vendor lock-in.

Absolutely. But running after the latest hypetrain bullshit and managers cashing out on corporation income is more important to them.

Till this day the mobile browser absolutely sucks (you don’t have a tab bar and you can’t even set a homepage! What the hell?!) and the desktop browser gets slower with every update. But at least we now have AI nonsense, not stylable UI by default, and massive loads of telemetry and user tracking only configurable via about:config.

Firefox could be such an awesome browser if it would be modernized, made faster, and made fully configurable (mobile and desktop alike).

I’m not mad at the main devs or the volunteers. They do an awesome job! The state Firefox is in is entirely the fault of the foundation management.
