I find this outcome delightful for all the compliance mandated organizations that are leaching with no intention to contribute back.
It could be really helpful for developers at pure leech organizations to make a case for being ready to contribute in an agile manner.
Now they’re all stuck waiting on either a good Samaritan, or their lawyers to get out of the way of progress.
I have little doubt that the fix has been committed to private forks dozens of times already, of course.
Synology Drive does what you want, if you bought a Synology NAS. Look for the Synology Drive or DS Drive app for each of your operating systems.
Whatever you’re using, I find it helpful so to setup Samba shares, since most operating systems can talk to it.
Some command line utilities that you may wish to schedule, if not using a sync app:
I’ve heard great things about KDE Connect, which supports a bunch of platforms.
On Windows: robocopy.exe
On Linux: rsync
On Mac: rsync
On Android: I don’t have a non-Synology favorite, right now. KDE Connect looks promising.
On iPhone: I’ve heard of these “eyes” phones. People seem to like them…
Edit: I see you have Syncthing. Disregard the above.
For NAS to NAS backups, I do prefer RSync.
MineTest is an open source game engine that allows running various open source Minecraft clones.
The approach I’ve seen most is using semantic versioning for releases, and having a continuously upward counting (not bothering to reset) build number for everything in between.
Sweet. Welcome to the cult of Debian.
We (Debian users and contributors) are inevitable. Our quiet satisfied computing cannot be stopped, only delayed.
We should consider getting some fancy robes and a few club houses, though. The only thing that can make Debian better is cookies and tea.
Would you trust this “wallet” tho lol
Hell no. I just kicked Google out of my life for the same crap. Ugh. But I’ll laugh too, because it’s either that or cry.
I wouldn’t trust them as a lone voice on something, but if other groups come to the same conclusion, sure.
As a Privacy nerd, I agree with the conclusions in the article, for what it’s worth. We do see a lot of “privacy” law proposals lately that are anything but.
I don’t think things will get better, on this front, until the average person better understands privacy rights and risks.
I can’t say I’m shocked. But I am disappointed.
You’re not alone in that.
I also reread your comments sometimes with a deep sense is satisfaction.
(I’m kidding. Although I did check your comment history to make sure you weren’t a monster before even making that joke.)
True. I don’t post the license prominently, but my comments are Creative Commons, Attribution, Share Alike
Okay, I’m actually kidding about misunderstanding which bit of my comment your reply was to.
Yes, it’s great that MineTest is open source! And the mod community is impressive.
My comments are pure Internet gold. I’m actually only here to read my own comments. It helps me remember how brilliant and humble I am.
My posts help people discover MineTest. It’s pretty great, and it’s free.
Lunchtime, doubly so!
will tell you if a game supports the controller you currently have plugged in
Today I learned that. It never came up for me since I do most of my game shopping on my phone. That could be really helpful later.
Thank you!
That’s heartbreaking. Radio Shack was so fun, while it lasted.
Netflix can’t do what got them to the top.
They can’t grow that way but they could easily hold on and remain profitable, popular and successful.
They were well on their way to enjoying “Kleenex” or “Oreo” stable market success, but their leadership and shareholders apparently aren’t satisfied with winning.
I’ll take “Organizations that made it to the top by doing something different, only to fall under leadership that doesn’t understand what made them successful and descend into ruins” for 200, Alex.
Seriously, Jeopardy team - this is a rich category:
Oh. That makes sense, I play mainly on SteamDeck, but I’ve been thinking of getting a Steam Controller for my PC, since the majority of what I’ve bought in the last year has been “SteamDeck Verified”.
It’s been tickling my brain that “SteamDeck Verified” badge also makes it a lot easier to tell how a game will act with a controller on PC.
I’ve not worked with a marketing team where that would work, but maybe it will for some.
I’ve never been anywhere that I thought it would work, but it ultimately did, almost everywhere.
I’ve found it takes a few iterations, but the marketing folks in on it love being the ones who actually can reliably deliver on their promises.
It doesn’t work for the marketers that promise whatever they please without talking to dev, but I don’t find them to be worthwhile professional allies, so I don’t sweat it.
It doesn’t change the “massive customer will only renew if” scenario, though.
Very true. It doesn’t help with that case, and that one does happen. I’ve had the best luck saying “we don’t do that, but we’re scrambling to add it” in that situation.
The stupidly easy solution is to just give them stuff that has already been successfully delivered to production to market, 9 months from now. There’s invariably a huge backlog of years worth of successes that marketing wasn’t even aware of.
The assholes pushing this crap sure are lucky they outnumber us…(\sarcasm)
