Any longtime #syncthing user out there?
I would like to go give another try, my experience from 5-6 years ago was not that great, I didn't want to use the public relay/discovery server and I remember it was not that smooth, I had quite some discrepancy among my devices.
How is it nowadays?
If you are a longtime user, can you share your experience? (i don't ask for config)
thank you
For the next #artemis mission, if any, and if the plan is to land on the moon, please don't use any M$ products.
A failure would have a catastrophic effect: fuelling the "no moon landing" theory.
run bsd!

I love the idea of neighborhood IT
I wish but neighborhood barely works for social exchange and common good, so "IT", don't hold your breath.

sure, we need a video for this... and they cry about dying internet.
Anyway, for the rest with a brain and by respect to Olivier Certner, here a writeup on the freaking website of the FreeBSD foundation.

dammit!
one of the few great lines of a wasted tv show:

btw, equisite.tube is a cool instance! kudos.
It goes without saying that whoever comes after #Trump, be it even a Sanders like or other progressist, US should not have any more lever on international politics than any other countries and we should leave the dollars and their mil bases should fuck off our lands.
That's what "No more kings" should mean.

And until Prince Harry calls out the BBC coverage and sanction them, it will continue.
Also, he should correct himself and stop entertaining that hierarchy. No more dedicated word. He talked about anti-muslim but use the dedicated word "antisemitism" for the jews.
Nope, we have a word for that and it's called "xenophobia", you could precise about jews or arabs but that's it.
I learned, via a lobster post, that KDE 3 is still being maintained through the #trinityDesktop project [1]
Not sure how viable it is but KDE 3 was feature complete to me back then and the last desktop I used and for the longest time until I ran Gnome Shell from 2015 to 2018.
It could be a good alternative to XFCE for those needing a desktop experience and why not, FreeBSD's main offering.
Need a little polish though, those icons were already out of place in 2005. :)
"Dungeons & Dragon Honor among thieves" is actually a very good surprise. I was afraid to find the same slop than in the "Guardians of the Galaxy" but we are at light years from that.
A good ol' adventure movie on its own. A story, some characters, some stakes, an end.
A movie you just watch, enjoy where your suspension of disbelief is never challenged.
I'm not a D&D player but I was not lost and wouldn't care if it is far from the game.
Anyway, I hope they get their money back!

Nothing really funny.
They are not disconnected, they are tied or worse play with fire (that's gambling after all).
They will or expect to exit with enough money/saving before the burst will happen.
[captain obvious]
fake money is the core problem
Gorgeous short exposure photo of the earh from #artemis2 .
A near dying billionaire asshole of 79yo and another 79yo spoiled kid believing fairy tales want to ruin our this gem. :/
the only positive thing about #ARTEMIS is that it will shut the fuck up of the no moon-landing ass.
still, I think it is a waste of money and just flex. And Apollo proved that it changed nothing for the 'mankind'.
Despite the tech, all the knowledge, we have ongoing wars, social issues and ecological disasters.
So no, there's nothing to cheer about Artemis.
I'm a amateur astronomer but not a space nerds..
RE: @gaborudvari@fosstodon.org
that's unexpected :)
Got the details of my last hospitalization, nothing severe fortunately, they charged me more for non-medical - and non-asked services than the care itself.
My heath-care covered a big part - 80% but even for them, I find what has been charged pretty excessive.
Hospital/health-care business could need better scrutiny.
Probably due to their own "insurances" charging them a premium.
Which leads to the question that the insurance field too should get more scrutiny. :)

@vermaden the 17" is too much but I like their 15.6 model.
Though, not sure about the laptop compartment; opening the backpack like this tends to throw off the balance most of the time.
I have a classic Samsonite matching my ThinkPad color :) but it's a terrible mess inside, not a good laptop bag nor a sportbag and even less a travel bag.

True.
Not forgetting that fucking industry marketed tobacco to women as a sign of emancipation.
No more tear-off menus on #gimp 3 ?
Am I correct?
It was one of those GIMP killer feature, with the dynamic shortcut assignment, which apparently is also absent.

Mac is a wrong solution, Apple can control these devices and make it unusable, even if you are in your rights.
Honestly, I don't see how Europe would let it happen, I mean locking down hardware/software, even if they bring back manufacturing and were leading their own software. If it happens it's purely to serve US interests.
I don't want to wait for a pseudo moderate/democrat US president (this guy is not acting alone), we must cut it off now!

Just to clarify, It might sound like an anti-american stance, but it's not, I call for better balance and diversity.
