It shows up as a regular comment it seems, at least on the app

It depends. Someone who is very active in the community and wants to take on the task of migrating, moderating, and keeping communities healthy are encouraged to do it.

For adoption, having 5 instances with 1000 people each is much better than 1000 instances with 5 people each.

Probably beats Hemköp coffee by a bit, I will have to see if I can get some next time I am there! Reddit refugees are always welcome!

Personally I think that in the modern age they add what is missing from text conversations: intonation.

If you are sarcastic, joking, serious, etc… it can add a lot of social context.

Lol, getting 10 thousand users to slightly inconvenience themself even to stand against things that directly effect them is difficult. Imagine trying to get billions to do it for a slightly indirect possible effect on megacorps.

There are probably half a billion people alone that would gladly lick the boot of any mega corporation that demanded it.

Maybe with all of the sketchy reddit exploitation more people will come over here!

Of course! Documentation and build guides/BOMs are what I am working on now. I never realized how much of a pain a full assembly guide is 😂

For the last 6 months I have been working on a completely open flight stick design. Just me working on it. DIY hotas sticks is a pretty damn niche hobby.

6 axis, 32 button, based on the MiG31 design, with a front panel on the base (on this design).

Not the most cost efficient vs quality as everything is 3D printed. Honestly it is my second big 3D modeling design and it was a pretty complicated one to get right. Ran into a lot of FreeCAD bugs. First time working with libopenCM3 also, so much less bloated than STM HAL. Plenty of improvements to come once it is released.

Open hardware with the CERN OHL V2 S and the firmware GPL3.0. Edit: forgot to link it - https://github.com/JustEnoughDucks/LibreMiG-S

I’m not sure how this starts a revolution, having a blue “verified” tick, but I guess knowing that it is from the manufacturer is useful

Some of the tech was very good too. But all forms of nazis still deserve to be beat down

There was some studies about timing of coffee and your body already needs like an hour or two to “wake up” before coffee to avoid a crash.

I’d have to dig it up again, but I have just been drinking coffee a few hours after I wake up around 9 or 10 and have gotten no crashes really!

Yeah I probably don’t download enough to be accepted (like 1 series per month and only a 1:10 down/up ratio since I like a lot of not super popular content) and I don’t use port forwarding since my server that manages it runs everything through a reverse proxy.

Good luck finding Flemish translations 😂

I’m a bit confused, how is it bad to side against current russian genocide, civil war slavery, and Nazis&Japanese genocides?

I mean there are some pretty bad takes like portugal, rhodesia, and israel, but it definitely isn’t the “worst possible”

I think this is exactly the software I was looking for! Wow!

I think one could argue that technological progression is incentivized more in a capitalistic system (at least until oligarchies are established and start indirect collusion), and I tend to agree. However, the cost of extreme exploitation of not only the employees, but the customers and the environment is 100% not worth an increased rate of “progress” if that even is the case, in my opinion.

Oh fully agree, but there are a ton of phenomenal books out there that are impossible to acquire legally without DRM. Many aren’t even available illegally, especially if they are in a language other than English, like try finding “De Grijze Jager” anywhere DRM free, legally or illegally hahaha. Many authors don’t even know the issue with DRM and just do what their publishers say is standard.

You want to do any professional electronics design works and don’t have half a million dollars per year for 1 license of all of Cadence’s tools: You can do circuit simulation through WINE and LTSpice or hspice and you can do hobby hardware development through KiCAD, but anything beyond that is difficult. You will also not be able to use almost any chip-specific development tools. Generally you can always flash devices, but advanced features are usually not available

If you want to do any significant 3D CAD: Maybe you can get Fusion 360 working through WINE by luck or can learn to make do with FreeCAD, but anything other than that is a no-go.

If you do competitive gaming: you are mostly SoL for the time being

If you have any dependency on Adobe tools for work, previous projects you need access to, etc…

If you like to read books on a kindle but don’t want to buy through Amazon: since the python3 migration of DeDRM and Calibre it is extremely difficult or impossible to get it working only on Linux using ADE on linux through WINE for the encryption key.

Plenty of reason to use linux, but above are some reasons not to.

But don’t a lot of big companies make a lot of use of JS malfeatures such that this direction wouldn’t be able to gain mass adoption? (Though I wish it would)

I prefer to program in Mr. Mime personally
