Wow thats an old meme

I dunno if you know this but SMS support got removed from Signal a few years ago

Its still better than any new chat protocol thats been made in the last decade. You’ll have to pry my family XMPP server out of my cold dead hands.

We mandate that ours are left on for orchestration and maintenance purposes.

Great! Now I can listen to my PinePods on my PineBuds which I store in my PinePod that they came with.

Meshcore also has a paid license to use the full feature set and if Plex has taught us anything, it’s to stay away from garbage like that. I’ll stick to Meshtastic, thank you.

Ivermectin suddenly seems like a viable cure

I am aware.

The FAQ specifically says you need the latest version of Chrome:

Why screen mirror is not working?

Try use the latest version of Chrome.

Oh no, it’s dependent on Chrome…

The fossify apps are legit, I use them daily.

This is the same or similar situation as OpenOffice → LibreOffice or OwnCloud → NextCloud (and to a lesser extent but more similar scenario, Audacity → Tenacity or various other forks).

This is what true open source looks like in action.

You have to pay lawyers to litigate.

And the contract said it was to be open sourced, which has not happened, so litigation must now happen to enforce it.

He could, but he likely doesn’t have the financial backing or community support to pull it off.

Browser+jellyfin is easy then, but again you need to make sure you’re not using google play services. That shit calls home like crazy.

With how KDE treats Plasma and their whole dev philosophy of “If we don’t use/like something, than neither will you”

How does anyone confuse the KDE team for the Gnome foundation? How did you manage to pull that off?

Lol. Lmao even.

If it has google play services on it, at all, there is absolutely no privacy.

If you can manage to stick to an F-droid+Aurora+Obtainium setup (maybe with IzzyOndroid enabled in F-droid), you can probably pull off privacy, but in my experience there are at least three major streaming services ive encountered that refuse to run if Google Play Services aren’t running and you can’t pass the SafetyNet authenticity/security check thing (which raspberry pi is missing the firmware and hardware to be able to support.) Netflix being the biggest of them, I think Disney Plus has issues, and it’s been a while since I tried but either crunchyroll or hbo Max gave me a hard time.

That’s what I do. I have a bunch of .desktop files that just open Firefox in kiosk mode to whichever website I want, and a bunch of .PNG files to make them look like apps. I installed them system-wide.

I’m a pretty big KDE Stan but I decided to give Gnome a go since Plasma Bigscreen is virtually impossible to install for a normal user at the moment. Its not perfect but it gets the job done, and I love the basic parental controls it has. Still absolutely awful in terms of settings though.

An Airmouse is a gamechanger.

Its a TV-remote-style device that works like a Wii remote to control the mouse, usually has a keyboard on the backside, and connects to a USB 2.4ghz or Bluetooth receiver depending on the model you get.

I got a $20 Rii and a $10 other brand one to try out. Both are fine. I like the buttons on the Rii better but it has no backlight which sucks because I’m usually watching TV in bed at 9pm. The $10 one’s keyboard also responds faster so I can actually speed type.

Can we crowd source a legal effort to force the contract to be honored?

People are always angry and confused when i call MIT a grifter license
