I don’t want to use swearwords. I hope I’m allowed not to in this freedom you’re telling me about.

Certainly taking back control of own infrastructure and developing in-house expertise, while saving thousands on unused cloud resources contributes to economic growth.

Since when chips are measured in euros and not in nanometres? Or is it just the press release that cares more about “fund utilisation” then actual achievement of the technology?

What’s wrong with Sony being Japanese, other than being one of the greatest brands in history?

I guess it’s quite probable their tradition and culture don’t value opens source so much

China is a joke here. But it’s not representative.

More than obvious that they’d rather allow Ukrainians than rednecks in.

Why did you upload the map sideways, other than cropping it?

How I miss the “do one thing and do it well” attitude in commercial services. Why do they have to convert any nice product into a s.itshow? It can’t be that investors want good services to become worse…

From how you describe your context (similar to mine), you don’t seem to need to backup images. Few local images mean little impact of possible failures.

We would have to make it sustainable eventually, since it’s the only practical way for passengers to travel between americas/australia/afroeurasia. I guess something hydrogen-based is the most likely candidate for reducing the carbon impact.

Hoovering and hydrofoils have been under-explored, but yes, speed is necessary for long-distance travel.

Defining “green” as energy consumption is quite exotic. More commonly it has to do with resource (carbon and others) footprint.

Given all the comments missing the point (also written in the title), I appreciate that yours would pass the message better

So “larger companies” are using jitsi for meetings? My experience is that they’ve never heard of it. To them zoom is the only alternative to teams. The most enlightened ones use google meet to the awe of others.

Well, hard to “just pirate” office365, teams or sharepoint. European institutions sold their asses and the public sector is in the deepest pond

Fortunately AI is taking care of that on its own https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-024-07566-y

Google will never rank fediverse posts high. Said otherwise, the external incentives are not there either.

There are cooperatives and I haven’t seen any of them so such spamming. The fediverse is an example of it too.

Yet you didn’t respond to the point that makes the difference:

reddit is actively encouraging this kind behaviour to inflate their user statistics and there is no incentive to tolerate this kind of spam for a fediverse server admin
