He literally invented the concept of Free Software. So yeah, of course he’s extreme about it!

Welp, that’s embarrassing for me. Good catch!

What makes you think the fake screenshot is Mastodon? I don’t use it so I don’t know about fonts and colors and margins matching up, but I’d at least expect there to be an instance name attached to the username.

Also, RMS is certainly not the kind of guy to use social media at all, libre and federated or not.

It has to be. RMS browses the internet by e-mailing a remote machine that wgets the page and e-mails it back to him, then views it in lynx so that JavaScript doesn’t run. There’s absolutely no way in Hell he’d be on corporate social media.

(I’m not joking, by the way.)

No, I’m in love with having my property rights respected instead of letting corporations sabotage my computer against me.

The real question is, why do non-Linux-users all insist on being simps and cucks and then have the gall to act like I’m the weird one?

I don’t trust their math. Based on the photos and floor plan, I doubt that it’s more than 300 sqft.

Luckily for us, the original RepRap folks were smart enough to go for copyleft rather than permissive licensing. As such, the common firmwares and slicers are both using GPLv3 code, severely limiting the companies’ ability to do that.

Email has been “dying” for 20+ years. I’ll believe it when I see it.

“When the only programming language you know is Javascript, everything looks like a web page.”

David Rudin, I guess? It says which company each person is from under their name. (The page defaults to the “Leadership” tab, so you gotta click on the “Board of directors” tab to see the correct list of people.)

Fighting over the MBR.

And it’s all because Richard Stallman got pissed off at Xerox.

[Though other people investigating the url seem to be pretty sure the images don’t have a per user url, so this theory probably doesn’t hold]

…yet.

If they send an image with a unique URL to each Lemmy user, they could link the IP to your account.

And to paraphrase Michael Bolton from Office Space, why should we be the ones who have to move? The corporations are the ones who suck!

Start today: buy your own domain name and sign up to an email provider with it. It does not take long to set up, but make sure you have auto renewal enabled to protect yourself.

What takes a long time is notifying everyone you want to continue being able to communicate with of your new email address.

What do you mean? My computer has never had Windows installed on it, so the end of Windows 10 support doesn’t affect me at all. I’m not sure what could be more simple than that.

Huh interesting. Are these displays all the exact same model?

Yep. I like me some symmetry.

I’m not sure if this is expanded further with RDNA 4 but I can try to find out.

Thanks very much; I would love to have all three displays freesyncing!

Display setup is 3x 1440p 100Hz.

I can’t give you any new readings because I just took the computer apart to do upgrades. This one is getting a 9070 XT, and the Vega is getting handed down to my home server for (hopefully, if it’s capable of it) Jellyfin transcoding and local LLM duty.

That means I’ll still be very interested in making sure it idles properly since it’ll be doing so almost 24/7, but it’ll have to wait a minute because getting it installed isn’t my priority.

(The desktop upgrade is complicated because the new card is too wide to fit in my old case, which sent me down a rabbit hole of picking out a new SFF case and replacing supporting components like the PSU and CPU cooler…)
