They have not. I can‘t provide you the link, but it was long speculated that they are working on an ARM device. Also you cannot really hide activity in an open source project. It was just not officially communicated that these changes have been funded by Valve.

There is LaTex which I would recommend for any kind of longer document.

CERN is doing exactly this: https://home.cern/news/news/computing/three-year-malt-project-comes-close

Governments in Europe from local to state are doing it as well: https://eu-os.eu/ https://gitlab.opencode.de/sh

Many companies already allow Macs to used at work. The same process applies to Linux.

Keep asking, keep telling colleagues about it. Be kind. Change is a process.

Some examples

• You need to pay a lot of lawyers on both sides
• You can get fired for not having kids, being young or not married
• People who are bad at their job are hard to lay off (this can include well payed managers)
• Companies find other creative ways to lay you off (if you charge your phone at work, you are stealing electricity)

Come to Germany and see for yourself :)

That‘s how it is in Germany. You can only get laid off without a negotiated severance package, when the employer is in financial trouble. Even then you need start laying people off the employer needs to do it according to the social contract (e.g. single mothers last). Both is really hard to proof (in court) so usually everyone gets a severance package anyway. This means when you hear about big layoffs in Germany usually all of them get a severance package or agree to something else. These layoffs are not comparable to the USA. This is the shortened and positive descriptions of the process, but of course there are also (justifiable) downsides of doing it this way.

My opinion: Figuring monetization out while keeping most of your audience happy will be the most important step to be a viable alternative to YouTube. Big YouTubers like LinusTechTips, Corridor Digital or something like Nebula already have their own service, because it is worth it to have fewer people pay more. Sadly everyone of them develops their own solution which are not interoperable. Are you in the talks with anyone to migrate to PeerTube backend? I think this would be such a gamechanger.

I cannot judge the merit of the paper itself, but Climate Healers seem to be a vegan focused non-profit. So they could be arguing against animal agriculture for other reasons than climate change. Which can be valid reasons as well.

I don’t know about the specifics of the ban described in the description and I am glad that you try to offer an alternative to the established communities. The more the merrier.

May be show the video or provide a link here?

You could build a literal infinity pool…

I wonder if Lenovo gets a revenue share when they sell a game on the device. This could also explain the $100 price difference as the they are counting on the additional income. Are there any leaks / rumors on this?

I believe this is something to be aware of and if this is something you don’t want use GOG instead. But in reality as long as Steam exists you will be able to download and play your games. If Steam ceases to exists then you will not be able to download them, but there will be ways to still play them, if you previously downloaded them. It is not like “owning” movies on Amazon (or just recently on the Playstation Store), where you always need to stream the movies.

Keep calm and contact support. They are responsive, nice and will help you. I had a very similar thing, if not exactly the same. They gave me instructions, some of them I already read online, some of them not. It felt hopeless and it went back and forth multiple time until it suddenly worked again. They really know their stuff. In the end it was something with the base OS version.

Do you have a link?

Free software as in freedom of speech, not necessarily as in free beer. Maintainers also need to pay the bills.

Yes, the comment was meant as criticism of the streaming era packaged as a joke

It‘s 2023, you can still listen to the same shitty music, because it is yours to keep.

The project controlled by only one entity can affect users in the future. Moving forward Hashicorp could do anything with the code or licensing and nobody could do anything about it. It is good that something is happening now, when there is still the chance to do it.

It is very normalized in the south of Germany, but generally Germany is very pro homeopathy so so it is even subsided by the public health care system.

Thanks for creating Lemmy! I like it a lot :) Do you have any ideas/plans on a privacy and user focused algorithmic view? If Lemmy wants to be big, I think we need something like this.
