Tangential fun fact:
Snake oil is a real thing, that actually helps with the some very specific problems. But it has to be made a specific way from a specific snake. We associate the term with scams because of the large number of scammers that advertised fake snake oils, or advertised it being useful for tons if things it wasn’t.
My point is, many of the most effective scams rely on something that has a kernel of truth.
Yea, I’ve looked into how it works to see if I could add it to an existing app, but ran into a wall I can’t recall right now.
The local stops would be good, but what I really need is the ability to figure out new routes, like visiting a friend.
Oh, I’ll take a look at those plugins.
IMO Obsidian is already a little rogue, in the sense that it only supports their sync. I know you can glue something together by syncing the folder itself, but that’s not convenient or the point. For now I’ll stick with Joplin because it works with nextcloud nicely.
The Transit app, used for bus/train route info and buying tickets. I imagine the ticket buying part would be difficult to OS, but I just want the live transit routing info. A few apps exist for other cities, but not mine. Worst part is Transit relies on Google Maps.
If Chromebooks are anything to go by, if google had their way you’d only be allowed to search prescreened questions they think are best for you. Can’t have you experiencing anything not advertiser friendly.
Yea this is a very worrisome denial.
Fair enough. Happy May Day.
I did give it a knee-jerk reaction, true. I’ve since had my morning tea and am mostly just wondering what you get out of yelling at people on the internet. Not that I don’t occasionally do the same. Maybe I’m asking you to better understand myself.
Honestly I looked at your comments and they’re all just aggressive, and I was genuinely wondering why. You’re not trying to share info, and you’re not trying to convince anyone of anything. What’s the point? Is this helpful to you? It just seems like you’re upsetting yourself.
EDIT: Actually, I take that back partially. You are sharing links. On my mobile app I only saw your comments, not your posts.
I am home, and saying literally anything besides an insult isn’t “debate”. Are you just afraid of actual discussion? Why are you saying anything at all?
Thoughtful contribution that really explained your position while repudiating theirs. I can tell you’ve thought deeply about your position.
Largely agree. I think the bamboozlers were there the whole time - after all, a lot of early radio was for propaganda purposes. But I do think most companies try to do things the right way, and there was a point when marketing was seen as simple outreach.
Good thoughts. Did you follow the link to thread that was the tipping point for the blog author? The thread creator was very rude (according to, due to his own mental health situation). We all have different levels of tolerance and patience, but I can totally see why the blog author would be fed up after such a comment, if things were already stressful.
5 euros a month. Worth it, it’s by far the best VPN.
Also not a lawyer, but you can also grant exceptions to the license (if you’re the sole owner of the code), so you can license code one way and let a certain org use it another way.
Which is essentially already what’s happening. The default “license” of something is that you have full ownership and no rights are given to anyone else. You’ve essentially give your company an exception to use it for that project.
I’m glad I skipped release day. Definitely waiting to buy it on sale after it’s been fixed with updates and DLC. Sucks to see companies treat buyers like testers.
This is a good thought. FOSS has been historically not very good at utilizing the time and skills of potential non-coder volunteers, but community management is a great place for that.
For DF: The free version had a Linux build for a long time. The paid version adds new graphics, and it took a while for that to get a Linux release.
For Minecraft: you should be able to play without an account if you’re single player and using a third party launcher. I almost exclusively play with friends.
