@poetgrant@fosstodon.org that's why we just need to hug it out

@steven@todon.nl @lunduke @purism @paulfree14 @gabriele@social.lucci.xyz just out of curiosity, what's the issue in purism having a fork of mastodon?

I would actually be concerned if they didn't have the option to fix issues without waiting for upstream. Just from a development perspective.

@hund@linuxrocks.online pretty unsatisfactory. It definitely erodes trust that they would make such a claim about respecting privacy only to be disproven by a 3rd party later.

Atleast they seem to have come around with a fix according to the article update.
"UPDATE: Version 0.1.4 of Librem Chat has been released and contains zero trackers."

Best i can hope is that these are unwitting mistakes of a company venturing into new territory, but I guess time will tell.

@alcinnz interesting :)

I never thought about memory allocation much, until a few months back, when I read another pretty good article but from a higher level programming perspective.

It starts out about how ruby memory allocation may be unnecessarily wasteful but actually ends up explaining a lot about how multiple different memory allocators interact.

Might be of interest to programmers who never "need" to think about memory allocation.

@emsenn @alcinnz @codesections i personally prefer to return 418.

Not many exploits available for teapots.

@dcharles525@mastodon.social ruby on rails is pretty similar to Laravel if you've used that.

On top of that I personally really like the ruby eco system in terms of packages (gems) and just the general attitude about what code should be.

@lightweight that's just the beginning. All our mailboxes are in 365, we use Azure, their OMS logging platform, "advanced threat protection".

It would take years maybe decades to get out if Microsoft decided to screw us over.

@hirojin@dev.glitch.social @zkat sometimes it lasts into July but I usually bounce back.

@lightweight I work in government and manage to get by with libreoffice, but it is actually crazy to me that we license Office for 5-8 thousand employees.

What's almost comical is that every time someone sends me something in Word or PowerPoint format it'll end up being incomprehensible and I have to spend time communicating with them to even figure out what they actually want.

I think we'd be better off discouraging the use of these tools internally. Even if it were open formats.

@poetgrant@fosstodon.org it's looking pretty good and I'm loving more manufacturers providing options.

I still think my money are well spent on the librem 5 because it seems to be going toward actually making the OS usable on the phone which I'm not sure it is yet.

GNU/Linux phones cannot come fast enough.

I am exhausted reading about corporate monopolies abusing people and then lying to them telling them it's for their own good.

It is time.

@emacsen indeed. It requires mix of stricter enforcement and rethinking the frame for how large corporations can be punished.

Clearly the framework is outdated and not capable of dealing with corporations the figurative size of countries.

@alcinnz nice :)

Giving me flashbacks to functional programming class in university. I don't miss everything from that time but a lot of the stuff taught there was really interesting.
