Yeah. Someone has to put in the work for packaging an application if you want it as a .deb/.rpm etc. package and deal with any bugs that might come up, and it’s not going to be me (speaking as a user, not a developer).
That said, I also painted myself into a corner when it comes to harddrive space. LUKS can be complicated, man …
What’s the purpose of converting an m4a file to mp4?
I think Github is a relatively simple issue. There isn’t really a shortage of european (or just selfhostable) alternatives, and the way git works means that most contributors have complete local copies of the codebase. TBH I worry more about the ability of american contributors to continue working on a project if the code is hosted in europe - basically a lot of open source developer teams could end up being split or shut down entirely. And the bigger projects like Linux and a lot of the intermediate layers between the Linux kernel and applications are majorly backed and developed by american companies and their employees.
The far right national government certainly isn’t good, but you’re right that it’s probably not that far off from most other big european countries right now. Definitely research the specific region you’re moving to, there are often extremely large differences between regions in european countries when it comes to political leanings, general tolerance and economic opportunities and it’s not always as clear-cut as “big cities good, countryside bad” or “north good, south bad”.
Considering the way MAGA voters act …
Yeah, that’s fair. They certainly don’t make it easy to vote in USA, which is deliberate to a large extent. Easy to forget.
This is actually a really cool site!
I think it was the votes of less than a third of eligible voters that made Trump 2.0 a reality, roughly another third just behind it, with the remainder not bothering to vote at all. I would say the often fantasized silent majority is actually not pro Trump.
That means that a third didn’t bother, though, despite Trump very much being a known quantity. The exact reason why they didn’t vote is up to debate and it’s probably several reasons at once (these people are not a monolith), but it doesn’t say any good things about them or the political system.
Anti-intellectualism has a certain tradition in the USA, it’s kind of well-known.
A German perspective: I think Germans have always been this stupid, they’re mostly just more willing to say the quiet part out loud than they were between 1970 and 2014 (rough estimate). The difference is that the far right extremists have a popular platform now, and the mainstream parties refuse to ban either the far right party or all the media (X, Facebook, local tabloid press etc.) that’s pushing them. If this party had been around in 1960, it would definitely have been banned.
I mean… is C really that bad??
Yes. Yes, it is.
It also sounds similar in most other languages.
And now I’ve eaten all of it slowly over the coarse of 2 months. Just fistfulls of late night cheese.
See, that’s exactly why I don’t do that! Also I don’t think my local supermarkets actually sell 3 lbs of mozzarella for $7.
In that case, the ingredients must be so cheap that the food coloring actually makes a significant price difference for them.
Yellow cheese (assuming it doesn’t use food coloring) typically takes a lot more time to make than white cheese, so yeah. Though mozzarella is also just the standard pizza cheese, it seems like most people in the know prefer mozzarella’s properties (e.g. stretchiness) over other types of cheese.
I was thinking more along the line of Steam’s authenticator app.
A 16:9 screen is basically two squares side by side, so instead of making a big square they can just make the landscape monitor bigger until it’s large enough that you can comfortable view two documents side-by-side. I definitely prefer 16:10 or 3:2, though.
