>>43095705from what I read online Haiku is getting it's last beta release pretty soon, with next major release finally being R1 one of the features of Haiku that interest is its filesystem-level tagging system that allows you to pretty much make a booru out of your image folder. Would it be a good OS for my X220 laptop?

Not to be a downer less than five posts in the thread but cuck washing of code bases is startinghttps://github.com/chardet/chardethttps://github.com/chardet/chardet/issues/327I wonder when first big copyright lawsuit over something like this happens.
>>43096205just abolish IP laws alreadyimagine leaked Win 10 source code being public domain
>>43096205The GPL is the only open source license that has been legally found to be enforceable. But only the FSF has the finances to pursue legal means and they're been corrupted from the inside out, so...Funny how they try to stifle any discussion on this though, especially this one which rightfully asserts that their aislop rewrite cannot be copyrighted since they did not even write it: https://github.com/chardet/chardet/issues/325
>>43096246>But only the FSF has the finances to pursue legal means and they're been corrupted from the inside out, so...there's SFLC that gives legal support pro bono
>>43096230I wish, some people hope that the weakened US position might open door for some copyright reforms but I don't have high hopes. In my country we have literal copyright mafia that requires you to pay when playing your own songs in public gatherings so they could protect you.>>43096246>corrupted from the inside out, soI wasn't paying much attention but I hope it's not that bad yet, the last suspicious thing I registered was when they didn't say anything about IBM and RedHat terminating contracts upon sharing GPL code>>43096254That's very interesting, never heard about them
>>43096276>I wish, some people hope that the weakened US position might open door for some copyright reforms but I don't have high hopes.IMO Trump's pushing hard on AI might change the laws to more sane time limits and/or "fair use" requirements
bump
>>43096347I think that if they'll do anything at all, they'll make pretty damn sure it'll be worse for everyone except AI companies and Disney (or they just won't enforce inconvenient violations)
>>43096842>Disneynah their last feud with Republicans in Florida resulted in Congress shitposting with anti-mickey mouse copyright reduction act they definitely lost their ability to lobby properly (I hope)
>>43097989she should switch to Qt before it's too late
>>43098070They don't have the manpower for that. Didn't Xfce see no development for over a year at one point?Their best bet (along with the maintainers of other distros based on GTK3) is to just fork GTK3 and maintain it with each other and give GNOME the middle finger it deserves.
>>43098104>Didn't Xfce see no development for over a year at one point?sounds more like MATEXFCE is pretty much everyone go-to option after GNOME and KDE
>>43098107>everyoneeveryone's>>43098104>Their best bet (along with the maintainers of other distros based on GTK3) is to just fork GTK3 and maintain it with each other and give GNOME the middle finger it deserves.I hope Mint guys manage to pull something off for their Cinnamon
>>43098113It's interesting times ahead at least. Either a lot of DEs will go under or change drastically or they become truly independent from GNOME. That should be better for the Linux ecosystem in the end. Actually, the worst thing would be if GNOME said something like "Because so many projects are still dependent on GTK3, we won't cancel its support".
>>43098119come on now, pic rel is too reddit to help the community
>>43095705oh hey my favorite thread is back!So far I've been working more on my podman and niche networking autism and this has culminated in me giving yggdrasil a look.But I wasn't too happy it basically goatsees everything you got running locally to its network without proper firewall rules.So I made it into a container, you can find the sauce here: https://files.catbox.moe/8gzbm8.zipBasically this allows you to expose anything you want onto yggdrasil, just generate a config file, add some public peers, pass it to the container and you're good to say what you wanna expose onto yggdrasil and as a nice bonus you can even make the port it runs on locally a different one in yggdrasil so you could totally have something running on port 69420 be accessible on port 80 in your yggdrasil IP.The compose file I linked has jellyfin as an example but you can use whatever it is that you want or just pass an IP and a port.In short this thing allows you to share stuff via yggdrasil. Why does it matter? It means you're free to access whatever you want, without an account remotely and glowies cannot do anything about it. Even if you're behind CGNAT.If you want to make let's say a private minecraft server for you and your friends just get them to install yggdrasil on their machine have them add peers then they can just punch in your yggdrasil's v6 address and you're on! If you wanna be sure only your friends can connect nothing simple just set ufw to deny all incoming traffic except for the one coming from your friend's yggdrasil IPs. None of these IPs will ever change as they are tied to your identity on the yggdrasil network.Even shorter: anon is tired of ngrok so he uses basement dweller shit to get his way.
>>43098135>yggdrasilwhy the fuck random random software projects are called like that? It doesn't sound as generic as, say, foobar Never bothered to google that
>>43098138Who knows? Big nordic tree, roots, network? You tell me.I'd have called it spaghetti, that's more fitting for a networking project.
>>43098135Sounds interesting. Anything to escape big corpo internet. But the project says it doesn't guarantee anonymity, so what exactly is the point of it compared to say an .onion or .i2p page?By the way, does anybody have any experience setting up IPFS nodes? How does that work exactly, how do you guarantee what you pin stays available to everyone without serving the file yourself indefinitely?
>>43098174>The project says it doesn't guarantee anonymity That is correct. It's not an anonymous network at all from what I have read.By that I mean peers know you are and where your traffic goes, just like the internet. However, note that peers cannot know what it is you're sending over the wire as everything is end to end encrypted.Think of it as an internet alternative your ISP can't block and that has pretty much the same use case as tailscale / zerotier without accounts.For anonymous use one cool thing you can do is use it as a gateway for i2p so you can use it to access i2p over Yggdrasil which makes blocking your i2p access from your ISP impossible and does guarantee anonymity as the only thing you'd see coming through Yggdrasil is doubly encrypted noise via i2p's NTP / SSU wrapped inside yggdrasil's e2ee.>IPFSI haven't tried that but that'd be worth a look. It doesn't seem too complicated.
>>43098135Btw I'm a dumbass and forgot to specify your config file need to have this line in it:AdminListen: unix:///tmp/yggdrasil.sockElse the containers will bitch about privileges as it tries to create the socket it listens on for connections in a place the container user can't reach.
>>43098190>i2p over YggdrasilWouldn't it make more sense to use Yggdrasil over I2P?
>>43098204You could? But I don't see the point over using an outptoxy to the clearnet instead?I2p over Yggdrasil just means to use Yggdrasil as a gateway to i2p if i2p nodes are blocked or something. It really boils down to what you want to access. If you want to anonymously access sites on Yggdrasil (there pretty much isn't any) then sure Yggdrasil over i2p is perfect.
ponebin is down REEEEEEEEEEEE

>>43098575Seems to work fine now, at least over here. Also, you should be posting about this in /fast/ rather than here (if it doesn't exist just create a new thread).
>>43099939>(if it doesn't exist just create a new thread)nah that's gay and retarded
>>43099944Then suffer in silence.
>>43099520I'm pretty sure I saw at least one moderately popular but I don't remember the name
>>43100523niri doesn't count because it's a joke for those who know
>>43100534I don't think it was niri. Sadly the software was irrelevant for me so I don't remember much, but I remember there being Github issue where they explicitly discussed the mascot being a pony (somebody asked about it iirc)
>>43100563you intrigue mewhat was that piece of software for? Was it a text editor? Some browser extension? An irc client?
>>43100563>Github issue where they explicitly discussed the mascot being a ponyHahaha, nice. Love to see normalfags seethe at the presence of ponies.
>>43100624we are truly the Jews on the Internet

I'll try to go thru my bookmarks once my head stops killing me, but I don't think I bookmarked it>>43100624It was mostly just question which was then confirmed. If it was seething I would have totally saved it to my /pts/ to-post list
>>43100663>It was mostly just question which was then confirmed.Oh okay, I just assumed seething because you called it an issue.
>>43100694I see kek, I meant Github Issue

>>43104857>chrome-basedEdge, if that wasn't obvious>>43104834>Where are we supposed to go?ladybird
>>43104857>IE was cancerous during first browser warsNo, IE was actually better than Netscape at one point and I also switched to it at the time for the simple reason that Netscape decided to be a "suite" filled with shit nobody needed (same with Altavista and Google which happened around the same time, this dumb idea that tacking on useless shit makes things better). The browser was the slowest PoS imaginable back then and that's why their project only became interesting again once they dumped all the excess baggage and developed Firefox. But they don't seem to have learned from this at all, because they keep bringing in shit nobody wants and aping Chrome when nobody who uses Firefox wants those features anyway, otherwise they wouldn't be using Firefox in the first place.
>>43104859>ladybirdIt's important to ask nowadays: who finances them, and are they hellbent on implementing every feature (including clear anti-user features) that some "standards body" like the WHATWG that is really run by big corporations decides to develop?
>>43104863I was born in 200x so don't know how IE was actually used back in the 90s, but reading stuff about M$ just breaking every single standard to make content locked to IE feels insane >But they don't seem to have learned from this at all, because they keep bringing in shit nobody wants and aping Chrome when nobody who uses Firefox wants those features anyway, otherwise they wouldn't be using Firefox in the first place.depends on features desufull page translations are pretty useful I guess>>43104866I hope they just make the most awful parts optional

Attempting a sort of Rainbow Dash themed rice for my Garuda Sway install on my college laptop. It’s unfinished at the moment, but I’m down for any suggestions.

Two days ago I emailed Stallman about age verification bullshit in Commiefornia his response is rather short, but at least FSF is working on it

>>43107107Funny how they really think they have any sway whatsoever. "Used to rule a third of the world..." really says it all.
Let's put a bit lighthearted spin on this dire topic. What stuff would be agewalled in Equestria's web, and how would small ponies conspire to access it nonetheless? Don't say pr0n.
