Heh. Nice

Sigh, so is Mozilla just like Google now? Can’t trust any services to stick around?

So the plot of Johnny Mnemonic?

Here’s one. And their profits went up when they replaced their CEO https://www.forbes.com/sites/sherzododilov/2024/01/11/can-ai-become-your-next-ceo/

Tbf human operated cars are also murder machines, we just are more amenable to tolerating it

20 years ago while learning web development Dreamweaver was going to supposedly eliminate the need for code on websites too. lol

But sadly, the dream of eliminating us seems like it will never die

It’s definitely better…but. Thanks to Google SEO the internet it’s bringing you results from is still filled with shit

I thought this was going to be about setting up packet radio and making offline backups of Wikipedia, for when the world tears itself apart less than a year from now 😓

Snaps are crap. Not using them is one of the main reasons I’m considering switching to Mint

Oh yeah. I remember this episode of Mr. Robot

Shit. I misread. OP’s image is for the whole fediverse… 🤦‍♂️

But still…no way that’s active users

Although FediDB claims we have about 418k active

Nope, that’s gotta just be registered users. We’re kidding ourselves and don’t even have 200k active users

*update: this is just Lemmy users, but OP was talking about all of the fediverse *

Firefox needs to ship with IPFS & IPNS built in, then we’d have a Distributed web. Which is I think what you’re asking for maybe?

I certainly have no interest in buying one as long as he’s still involved

You need the “Userland” programs. Basic things like ls, cp, cat, etc. Usually it’s GNU core tools, but there’s also BusyBox or BSD equivalents.

No, you’re moving the goal post. A company like Comcast offering a symmetrical service is huge, regardless of what the underlying technology is capable of. They could have been offering 200 megs symmetrical with Docsis 3.0, but they didn’t. They restricted customers to 11mbit uploads. This is a big deal

False. Comcast is finally caving and is beginning to roll out 2 gig symmetrical https://www.engadget.com/comcast-starts-squeezing-2-gbps-symmetrical-internet-speeds-through-decades-old-coaxial-cables-143657830.html

Mainly with the bootloader, but also a few device drivers. But this was like 6 years ago and UEFI was still new. So maybe it’s better now. Generally the older your hardware the more likely it is to be supported

The last time I tried installing on a MacBook I had all kinds of problems. Maybe it is better now, but I’d suggest starting with a traditional PC if you’re brand new to Linux
