Followup question, if you don’t mind! What still needs to be maintained on the Win32 system on behalf of the Fedora maintainers? If everyone has moved on from 32bit, and the old stuff doesn’t change, where is the maintenance requirement? Could we not find a “final” version and leave it static, but still available in the package manager?

Is it that packaging requirements change for different systems to keep up with hardware drivers/new package managers/kernel removing deprecated features/security vulnerability patches?

I saw this recently and sent it to some folks as a joke (been trying to get them to switch) They did seem more receptive to it, though. https://gitgud.io/wackyideas/aerothemeplasma/

If you are in a lower tax bracket now then you would be when you retire, put it into a roth. If a high bracket today then tomorrow, put it into a traditional.

I have only just heard this for the first time and it is interesting to me, what is the reasoning for this? I’ve been following the pattern of max out 401k match -> max out roth -> send extra to 401k, but I don’t really follow the intuition behind either strategy.

Just shared in another comment, instead of doing this you can also use http://playit.gg/ to create a proxy without requiring an account and also not requiring port forwarding. They lease you a domain name, too

i’ve been using http://playit.gg/ to set up a simple proxy that i can share with my friends! You just forward the port that jellyfin uses and share the link (and it works for all manner of other servers)

I’ve been using the fork Outertune, which seems more compatible with youtube music sync across devices, if you care about that

Real RTCW is available on steam for free with a bunch of user-made campaigns (+ other mods) on the workshop, too!

Not home so I can’t try it but do you need to be so specific to match the whole markdown syntax?

You might be able to get away with

s/#(\w+%20)*\w+\.\w{2,3}/\L&/g; /#(\w+%20)*\w+\.\w{2,3}/ s/%20/-/g

basically, matching #this%20is%20LIKELY%20a%20link.md as opposed to matching whole markdown link

lowercasing that entire match, then on a search matching stuff that looks like that, replace the %20 with a hyphen (combined into a single sed command). this only fails when an http link falls within the same line as a markdown hyperlink

As far as I understand, the training data is closed source. But, the methodology of training is open source which allows independent parties to recreate the model from scratch and see similar results. Not only can you download the full >400GB model using huggingface or ollama, but they also offer distilled versions of the model which are small enough to run on something like a raspberry pi. i’m running it locally on my machine at home with perplexica (perplexity.ai lookalike with searching capabilities)

If there is going to be an apk release, will there be support for Android TV as well? Thanks for the hard work!

Although I realize something like this might not be possible, i’d love (in a theoretical perfect world) a delegative/liquid federation. where you can “delegate” your blocklist be an aggregate of other people’s blocklist, which would allow a community of users independent of any admin to create a decentralized blocklist based upon mutual trust. To word it with an example, if I trust user A, who in turn trusts user B and C’s idea of who(/what communities) to block, i’ll then be blocking the same people as user B and C.

It could work in reverse too, if I trust user A who allows anime communities and user B who allows game communities, then I can see anime and game communities. If people trust me, they can see the same thing i’m seeing. Imo that would spur user interaction and make a decentralized way to not put any one person in power. If user B suddenly decides to only trust fascists, I don’t have to trust them anymore and those changes would be propagated.

I don’t know if that made sense, so sorry if that explanation is wack! It is loosely based on this concept that I read from awhile ago, for which I haven’t thought of the possible downsides.

If housing isn’t an economy at all, I can understand how you came to that viewpoint in your original comment. But, I feel that as a usual internet comment, it was exaggerrating and envisioning an ideal world.

We aren’t living in one of those. When I read that comment I understood it as basic housing not being an economy, and luxury housing still being purchasable-- which is much more realistic. And so I wanted to give a bunch of examples in the ways that it is feasible to create basic housing even in our capitalist system today.

I mean, hopefully in the future we can get to a post-scarcity economy where not only is the housing provided for free but it is also exactly what we want. That day won’t be for a long time, though…

I think there is a different take here. The government needs to subsidize large scale housing development with a focus on housing cooperatives (people owned apartment complexes, not profit-driven company owned), and change laws so that people don’t have to live so far away from where they work.

You can buy your house and plot of land, but we need more places for people to get out of the street in general, and ways to put people in places where they can contribute to a city’s economy. The government can also do things like reduce minimum parking requirements within a city so that apartment builders don’t need to subsidize car infrastructure out of pocket. This would have the side benefit of people walking or biking to work more, which can help out local businesses in a city.

The benefit is that if there are more affordable housing options available, that gives people the freedom to switch jobs or take a leave from their job to care for their loved ones when they fall ill. The stability that is provided by having a home is so important to being able to integrate into society.

edit: adding some links for sources on housing cooperative effects on housing costs and the cost of parking requirements on new developments.

My first projects were super janky gui stuff that was ported over from Java (very similar syntax, but connected with the visual studio built-in gui editor) and improved to a proper “c#” style using resharper (a jetbrains tool that boosts the capabilities of visual studio) Nowadays you can get a free version of Rider that will include those style tools, so I’d recommend that. But if you use Visual Studio, you can create a Winforms project which can let you drag components to make UI and easily assign code to events. If you are used to raw HTML webpage creation, you might be able to get away with using something like WPF or (cross platform) Avalonia to make a UI, but these are a bit more intense since they use something called the Model-View-Viewmodel framework. It needs you to know how to ‘bind’ variables to events using the observable class, which can be tricky the first few times you use it. I’d look into picking a simple project where you can learn how to use classes effectively (C# is based around Object Oriented Programming much more than bash and self-taught Python would cover). Also would recommend following some of the very simple Unity tutorials to get a handle on the syntax, such as the Unity-made Roll-a-Ball tutorials. These tutorials show the concepts for class-based design and overriding functions.
