We like to think EU abandoning tech companies will create a new privacy FOSS ecosystem, when in reality they will likely just recreate their own Tech corps like China and US now that they have skin in the game

Any exec who makes people use that should be fired


what would you want changed


idk docker has so much weirdness edge cases you have to build for, that you can do but I feel like a game should be pretty easy to just statically compile and call it a day. but I guess steam already has their runtime that tries to do the same thing


I don’t understand this I use it for rocket league occasionally and it all just works ™ ? I prefer Valve 100% to slopnite developers but the launcher seems fine to me. (On Linux Heroic is unironically better than steam which has a bunch of random bugs every few weeks)


Trump is just reducing American consumption so we can hit our climate goals. Art of the deal strikes again! The winning never stops


Brave is decent but alot of people have problems with the creator which is understandable
I use to use ungoogled-chromium back in the day not sure if its still around
I hear things about helium nowadays but don’t have any experience


Why Vivaldi? its partially closed source and still chromium based


What will releasing this even do, its quite obviously what happened but no ones retracting their support for anyone


If you can get people to stop buying from China, Seize the means of production, and then live a materially worse life I’m all for it. We currently have a bunch of people crying about RAM prices stopping them from playing the latest triple AAA video game so I doubt that will happen


Shipping stuff is cheap if you have alot of it for example
https://freightify.com/ship-containers/china puts a 40ft container at max $6000, which in practice can fit around 26000kg, so per kg you are paying around 26 cents per kg shipped. You would get even better deals I assume if you had contracts setup to do bulk business with freighters


Surely we can charge more than 1B


You can get Chinese prices if your citizens are willing to work like the Chinese, no one in the West will.
Autarky is also largely a degrowth argument, most Westerners already feel like they should consume even more so it’s impossible to win unless your voters fall for Donald Trump esque arguments. The modern Westerner lives one of the most opulent lives in the world history on the back of cheap third world labor.
edit: If you believe the Trump admin has a plan, they are trying to thread needle by devaluing the US Dollar just enough to incentivize manufacturing, but keeping it high enough that the average US consumer doesn’t feel the hit. They then leverage tariffs for preferential trade deals with other countries. I don’t think its really working but its the only way you could revitalize manufacturing in the west at this point


Donnie at it again

Art of the deal strikes again folks!


Similar to how China let Tesla in to force its domestic market to compete (Which now makes the best EV’s in the world) America should do the same. Let BYD or Xiaomi sell cars in the states, Musk and co. can then compete or lose to the Chinese. With musk’s close ties to the admin I doubt this will happen.


You can split your ssd into a bunch of partitions install different distros in each, edit your bootloader config to make entries for the other partitions


Ik im suppose to be scared about ICE raiding my home and deporting me, but I feel so smug seeing the people who laughed at caring about privacy finally realizing the whole point.
Actually to expand on this, you can kind of do the opposite, for example you can launder federated social media if that federated social also contains something people actually want. Then relying on network effect/cultural inertia to keep you relevant


Curious, whats a “better world” to you?
How is it so hard to just not do this
