@stereo Yeah, exactly what I was aiming for with mine! Gemini browsing with amfora and lightweight web, I have w3m with images working in a sixel-capable st, Matrix chats with gomuks and Fedi with tut. I use the same TUI software on my more capable machines, but it's all so lightweight that they even work on this one and with zram even at the same time. Even surf works and I'm able to browse Twitter via Nitter, it's slow-ish, but bearable. All in all, it's still a capable machines for its niche😂

@Piejacker875 @ArtBear Formerly antifascist is also good! 🤣

Are there people who genuinely believe stuff like that? That Putin is fighting fascism? 🤨

@stereo @PINE64 It's quad-core and has two gigs of RAM! How's that slow? 😲
I have this thing: https://social.librem.one/@m0xee/110475696279937726
It's a dual-core ARM netbook with only 512 Mb RAM and I still don't think that it's useless. It doesn't even have NEON, that is precisely why I've had to rebuild the whole Void system from scratch to run on it 🤣
I think I'd actually use it more once I figure out a way to fix suspend to RAM. Maybe I'll even replace the panel with a better one and the battery.

@theorytoe That is privacy-centric for you!
I think the shortest is "pm.me"

@staidwinnow @lowqualityfacts
"Give it another shot" 🤣

@lore This pressure from customers sounds nice in theory, however in reality companies use noncompetitive practices to tie you to their products/ecosystems so they can force shit you obviously don't like on you. Apple does that and does it a lot — everyone does, all the time. With opensource you at least have more control over it, it's easier to pack your bags and wave goodbye without replacing half the hardware you own.
Okay, you probably know all that and it was just a hot take 😄

@meduza_unshackled Параллельно с этим в той же НГЕ выходит новость о том, как в бурятском селе, у которого белый флаг с синей полосой, и таким он был и до начала войны, планируют его заменить чтобы не дискредитировать войну.
Воспринимается как новости из параллельных реальностей.

@theorytoe One of my cats would love getting reloaded like that 😹

@enduser@toot.io @safiuddinkhan I used to be a leader of an underground band with a cult following, but it was so underground that even the band members had no idea where one can download our albums or get them on physical media 🤣

@adiz @moffintosh I have a very different impression of this. I don't think that Stalin personally was antisemitic, but he wasn't against throwing Jews under the bus for the sake of appeasing his ally. I don't have any link at hand, but there were many Jews in higher ranks of NKVD and they were getting replaced as cooperation was gaining steam. So yes, there was no partaking in the genocide, but Stalin had nothing against that either.

@janantos @tchambers @ipg Precisely! That is why I have WebP, WebM and VP9 disabled in Firefox and refuse to use them. If it is controlled by Google, it doesn't matter if it's opensource or royalty free — sure, you can fork it, but everyone will still use their implementation. Just yesterday I was reading how they are trying to get rid of JPEG XL on the grounds that there is no demand for it, looks like there is, them having no control over it seems to be the real reason: https://www.theregister.com/2023/06/07/apple_safari_jpeg_xl/

@safiuddinkhan Does it use U-Boot? And U-Boot can do that, the Shift thing? 😮

@moffintosh And yes, Soviet Union was also doing bussiness with Hitler, trains carrying commodities were moving till the very invasion, the worst part is that Germany might not have enough resources to start the invasion had this not been happening. SU was providing training grounds to German pilots at Lipetsk air base. Soviet Union was extraditing Jews to the Nazi Germany to their imminent death, there is so much more than M-R pact. Pinning it on the West is wrong on so many levels.

@moffintosh Being critical of the West is okay, but why whitewash Stalin — he was just as much a piece of shit as Hitler was. The top arguments are debatable, yet, German–Soviet Boundary and Friendship Treaty is very real. Did anyone else have a friendship treaty with the Nazis? The article in Pravda in which Stalin is very protective of Hitler is also very real. Talking about defending someone from Hitler in this light is just laughable — fighting over spheres of influence isn't protecting.

@yukiame @Beef Yes, that's more accurate 😁

@yukiame @Beef They are going to get renamed to Rumpelstiltskin soon and Till would have to tear himself in two by the leg after messing with childish girls who believed that after being chosen for a private afterparty they would get shown a pony instead of getting drunk and getting laid.

@Sabex @yukiame @Helgi Sure! That last sentence was meant to make my post not look like I'm suggesting you to give up on Slackware, but I still failed 😅
I mean even if Patrick goes nuts there are others to pick up the ball. The demand for staying away from it is definitely there.
I even manage to get by not having pulseaudio in my system or that new thing they came up with as a replacement — might not be that bad, I just don't need it. Have to use apulse for Firefox, everything else works as is.

@Sabex @yukiame @Helgi There are lots of distros that don't use systemd, there are even such Debian and Arch forks. I've never used Slackware properly, but I think you'll find Void appealing — that is what I use and it uses runit by default, I think you can even replace it with other init (dinit and whatnots).
There definitely are alternatives moving in the opposite direction — away from systemd.

@mjdxp @lonelyowl Does the drink still get named after you if you win? 🫢

Sway has this thing called scratchpad — it's where you have stuff that you want to have running, but don't have proper place for its windows in your current layout, so they live in this limbo with their windows hidden, but you can always bring them back if you want to.
Sway wiki has a nice list of software that works well with it: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki/Useful-add-ons-for-sway
