Google’s bot is fine in my book, their crawler doesn’t absolutely blast your server with web requests like other AI crawlers do. (Speaking of, I need to update my list of netblocks and UAs to get iocaine-holed.)

That said, two evil megacorps potentially fighting? I hope they kill each other.

Ah, so they are actually differences between IPP Everywhere and AirPrint (apart from AirPrint including the whole autodiscovery stuff)? Good to know. The latter is usually more prominently advertised though which is why that’s the one I mentioned.

But yeah, it should be very common for these to be supported with anything remotely recent.

Anything that supports AirPrint (this one does from what it looks like) will work with CUPS driverless printing on Linux.

Is this a real screenshot of him crying about the initiative reaching 100%?

I don’t have any secrets in my config or a private key or anything and I’m currently running 4 servers from the same config (it used to be 8 or even more machines at some point even, including desktops).

But yes, it’s a multi-file config, it would be absolutely crazy to not split it up with how large it is.

This is a way broader phenomenon than just dark patterns or whatever. It exists in open-source as well which generally does not have any incentives to do this sort of stuff.

The database store is in /var/lib/postgres. You can just connect that disk somewhere else and start the database using the same (important!) major release of Postgres. I think the major version number is in the folder name. Then do whatever from there.

Just saw this article linked in a ThePrimeagen video. I didn’t watch the video, but I did read the article, and all of this article is exactly what I’m always saying when I’m complaining about current UI trends and why I’m so picky about the software I use and also the tools I use to write software. I shouldn’t have to be picky, but it seems like developers (professional and hobbyist alike) don’t care anymore and users don’t have standards.

This is why Youtube Music lasted a total of one day of me testing it a while ago (this was when I had Premium for a while and figured might as well test it). Insane to have a scroll view that expands as you scroll down, taking five seconds to load the next 10 items, instead of a fixed-size list.

I’ve started buying music

Oh gee I wonder why depressed kids are increasingly online where they are more free to express themselves, in a society where mental health problems are very stigmatized and confiding in someone that you want to kill yourself can get you imprisoned.

Also, related post on the general concept of internet addiction and gambling social media addiction.

going to bat for the concept of internet addiction as someone under 80 is spectacularly funny

damn people are spending a lot of time on the combination newspaper/public square/vast searchable library of incomprehensible amounts of information/storefront/private communications/some people’s actual job technology. presumably there is some nefarious Scary Pathological Aspect to this,

Imagine if you called gambling addiction “addiction to going outside” and doomed the discourse to constantly bounce between “ok SOME outside activities are bad, you need to have a good relationship with how you interact” and “theres nothing wrong with going outside dumbass”

“gambling addiction” is an invention of the gambling industry leveraged to pathologise the human misery inflicted on purpose as part of their business model and divert discussions of that misery and suffering away from regulatory and political interventions that could prevent that harm and towards biomedicalized management of those experiencing that (again–foreseeable, inevitable, industry-working-as-intended) harm

Yeah! To add to this:

Yeah. I use it with systemd, but I don’t want to miss /etc/portage/patches for example. It’s so nice.

waow. based

(Made in Krita!)

Yeah, on a desktop I don’t really mind whatever*. On a server however, I think systemd is great and I wouldn’t want to miss it anymore.

* except Debian’s frankenstein systemd + sysvinit combination. Burn it

Gentoo with OpenRC

Oh really? Nice, that’s news to me. Last I checked (admittedly not recently) it needed a bunch of 32-bit libraries installed to even start the client.

Since we’re talking about Steam here for example, Valve have not even bothered to release a 64-bit x86 client, let alone Arm client, except for Mac.

Gentoo can do this with Portage sets. They’re essentially a more simple way of creating a meta package which just installs other packages. And you can also write config packages which installs configuration for other packages.
