That doesn’t solve communities being inaccessible though, does it?

Hi there! Like many others, I’m wondering where this issue is at?

Dual partitioning as Android does it might have helped. Install the update to partition B, reboot and if it’s alright swap A and B partitions to make B the default. Boot again to the default partition (A, formerly B).

It wouldn’t have booted correctly afaiu with the faulty update, and would have been reverted to use the untouched A partition.

Shame

Why sell an image when anyone can generate the same one with a few words using your model?

If you want to share stuff, fine, but why sell it? If you want to get money, find a job

It sure took them a while!

I’m curious how they had to send the floppy disk. Like, go to a special place to use an old computer that could still write to floppy disks? Or create your word document/pdf, compress it as much as possible and somehow find a place to put that on a floppy?

Forums really have to get back in the world. I’m trying to ditch discord and move everyone to GitHub discussions for a project (have removed all invite links, just using it for me as a « webhook monitor »). Some people are still there when they have questions on how to use the project (because they prefer speaking in French rather than English).

I was thinking more like just having dockers on macOS

But running a Linux like asahi is an option

The AltStore: am I a joke to you?

Joke on them, I don’t read ads!

What do you mean, I’d love to see ai design a potato

Last time I checked they were working on forgejo runners / actions!

And they justified with

I’m having a mental health crisis right now. What I said was wrong, I could not see that a few days ago. Take whatever you want from that. I am sorry. Please stop piling on now that I have removed everything. I am seriously ill and need to stop being involved in anything for several months.

(Leaving the end out as it can be triggering, talking about death)

I don’t know what to make of this.

I think I’m more fed up with people making those quotes “rust will change everything” when, in fact, it will rule out many if not most memory corruption as you said. Reading your comment, I see now it’s the mentality “everything need to be in rust” that bothers me the most, which in fact means “rust can bring memory safety” and not “rust will replace everything”. Alas I’m seeing it used times and times again as the latter instead of the former.

I’m getting fed up about all those articles “rust x something: the future?”, “I rewrote in rust it’s now memory safe”. I get the rust safeties and all, but that doesn’t automatically make everything great, right ? You can still write shit code in any language that can RM -rf all your disk, or let security gaps here and there without intending to.

I mounted a disk of a server in rescue mode, since I needed to extract everything (the provider didn’t have the option to dump everything as a zip). Then installed an FTP server, added a user/pass, it worked.

But I couldn’t access the files of the original disk, even though I could see them. So I just chgrp/chown the original files, since the disk was just “mounted” in the rescue disk /mnt, I thought it was alright (at the time I thought permissions were volatile, stored separately from the files). I could now download the entire disk, yay!

Upon booting the original disk again, a bunch of errors: shell not starting, tools not running, because they were owned by user and not root…

Well we reinstalled all the server from scratch that day.

Yes, alas C++ is fun, but very quirky. Perhaps too much. For big (new) projects I wouldn’t recommend it. People are trying to fix it but it’s hard and without breaking old features I don’t think it will be possible to make it better and improve it even more.

I entirely agree. It all depends on context, preferences, goal and probably other things.

I found the article interesting even though I don’t entirely agree with all of it!

Well I mean if you want to pay 99$ each year, yes

I created a discord server for an open source project of mine, but grew to dislike it. It got spammed multiple times, people are off topic and talking about their lives in channels that aren’t for that, and so I started pushing the community toward GitHub discussions.

Discord isn’t searchable, nor archivable, nor public, but GitHub is (I’m aware of another conflict with Microsoft for some people, but to me this is the easiest solution to get contributors and have an easy CI setup).

I haven’t had much success yet, but I’m slowly shutting down all links to the discord and will let it die (for outside contributors at least). I might keep it to stay in touch with a few developers, to refine issues and prepare migrations that aren’t ready to be turned into public discussions/ issues / pull requests.
