Yeah. Linux is also optimized to run well. Has a capable community and a few good design choices. Many people use it to run it on servers so I wouldn’t be surprised if it performed well well on servers.

Also there is a well known fork that is used on millions/billions(?) of ARM phones. So it’d better be a good choice for that use case.

Isn’t metadata leakage a problem that this messenger shares with nearly every other (popular) messenger out there?

I don’t think it’s just Linux. I’ve been told MacOS also works very well on ARM. Maybe it’s just Microsoft doing a bad job.

Das war ja mein Punkt. Ich kauf mir nur halb so oft Laptops und behalte die darür doppelt so lange und schenke mir viel langes recherchieren.

Meine letzten Laptops waren alle Thinkpads. Natürlich eher Business-Modelle. So massiv war der Aufpreis (je nach Modell) jetzt auch nicht. Aber ich glaube das war einmal… Mein aktueller Laptop ist von 2016 und aus mehreren Gründen bereit ersetzt zu werden.

Ich denke ich werde mich wieder zuerst bei Dell und Lenovo umschauen. Aber ich glaube die Lage hat sich inzwischen echt weiter verschlechtert. Also falls die unverschämt viel Aufpreis für ein Businessgerät verlangen und/oder alles verkleben/verlöten, kaufe ich auch etwas anderes.

Aktuell tendiere ich zu einem Framework Laptop oder ich kaufe einen wiederaufbereiteten Leasing-Rückläufer. Da kriegt man dann zwar ein drei Jahre altes Modell aber wenn man das gleiche Geld auf den Tisch legt das vollausgestattete Luxusmodell vom Chef. Zumindest erhoffe ich mir das.

Edit1: Bei Telefonen kauf ich meist was Preis-Leistungsmäßig gutes wo ich recht sicher bin, dass ich da mal den Akku austauschen kann (wenn auch heutzutage mit Fön und sehr viel Akribie) und welches von LineageOS gut unterstützt wird. Bisher hat das ganz gut geklappt. Aktuell habe ich ein Pixel4a.

Edit2: Sorry für die Duplikate. Habe Voyager for Lemmy ausprobiert und irgendwie macht die App komische Sachen wenn man seinen Kommentar bearbeitet.

Idk. I had a look at their ‘About us’ section on their homepage. It’s not my project. Write them another bugreport, let them know their community dislikes this. And also write a paragraph about being Hippocrates writing about ‘openness’ and then not sharing their data for years.

Genau. Ich sagte etwas Vernünftiges. Bei Computern wird das leider zumehmends schwieriger, das ist mir klar. Aber was mit einem Apfel drauf würde mir da auch nicht als erstes in den Sinn kommen. Die sind ja an vorderster Front mit dabei das Reparieren unmöglich zu machen…

Vor allem wenn man etwas vernünftiges kauft, ist reparieren oft auch einfacher und schneller, als sich die Mühe zu machen Tests zu lesen und sich mit dem Thema zu beschäftigen, dass man auch einen adäquaten Ersatz findet.

They write all the knowledge is Public domain and CC0. So it is .

Idk. That ‘study’/article fails to recognize the consequences and ethics of the legal situation in Japan for example. And I think everything is a bit too vague to really claim to be scientific.

This topic sometimes makes me a bit angry/disappointed. On the one hand I perfer my favorite places on the internet (eg the fediverse)/not to be used for disgusting stuff and crime. On the other hand politicians like Ursula von der Leyen, who is now head of the EU parliament, have been using exactly this subject for years (and in my eyes thus abusing the stories of the victims yet again) to advertise for 100% online-surveillance, getting rid of end to end encryption and storing massive amounts of data about everyone, just in case…

“Just think about the children…”

And this is just not the way to solve that issue. I don’t want to live in their 1984-society fantasies and there are better solutions around.

A second thing I find kind of alarming. The article mentiones those automatic content detection tools by Google and Microsoft. They are NOT available for the free world. I think if legislature really forces us to filter on upload… And it’s only big corporations that own the databases of CSAM… This is their way to easily get rid of the fediverse. And every platform build by and for the people.

I’m a bit disgusted. But this is why i’m interested in the subject.

I might be a bit spoiled by the ESP32 and all its supported protocols.

thx. forwarded it. happy pirate sounds

Another question: Is there really CSAM on Lemmy? I can not believe that and haven’t seen it either. (If this means what i think it does, i’m glad. I’ve been in all sorts of corners of Lemmy. And so far everything seemed alright except for some nuts that have radical political views.)

Where is the piracy? (Asking for a friend.)

maybe RS-485 or CAN

I don’t know instead of getting through the instances and see individually. However: Most big instances i’ve had a look at and i see regularly in the usernames block exactly this. I think it’ll be rather easy to find one that matches those criteria.

I agree and disagree.

If it’s one or the other I’d also say we don’t need growth. But truth is: We have to be of a certain size so that talking about niche topics works. Currently there are communities that just don’t work because it’s just one person or a very few active people and it’s not enough for a conversation. It’s just, we need to grow in a healthy way. In certain places and we need to attract just the right people.

But altogether it’s what i’ve been saying about free software and/or platforms for years now. We don’t need to compare ourselves to something else, we don’t need to clone something else… This is our little cozy place. If i wanted everything to be like on reddit, I’d just go there and not spend my time here and complain.

One thing I disagree is that Lemmy is becoming like Reddit. I met a few nice people here. And it did and still does feel different. And maybe this place is big enough to be a home for all of us. From people who are ‘toxic’ in other people’s eyes to people that just want to talk about 80s computers. I think we need a few things to change and a technical solution to the problem so that people can get along. We already have federation and some servers de-federating others because of fundamental disagreements. I think moderation has to be enhanced. And we need to stop showing the ‘ALL’ feed per default. That just contains silly memes or lots of low quality content. That’d be a good start.

Me neither. Sorry. I just heard in the podcast that scripts now can return values. And we can always store state inside of some input helpers. But if you don’t find a solution or an idea of how to do it in the forum, it’s maybe not (yet) possible this way. Or too complicated.

I have a few other things to do before i can start fiddling around with Assist and soldering some voice assistant for the kitchen.
