Underworld by Don DeLillo

linucs,

I think Logseq [1] does a very good job at basically everything you’ve mentioned

[1] logseq.com

linucs,

No I’m pretty sure Katex support is built in

Does a colorscheme (for desktop or app themes) optimized for "Blue light filter" exist?

I found this post on Hacker News news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38421110and in it a comment that sparked my interest: “Only tangentially related but: I have a blue light filter (Plasma night color) always on on my laptop because I feel like, in combination with brightness reduction, I get less eye strain. I’ve always wondered...

linucs,

I agree, the rules in AskReddit were too limiting

linucs,

Pipewire is a true blessing for Linux

linucs,

I don’t know what you’re using for Lemmy and have never used Apollo but I’m using Voyager and many people say it really feels like Apollo. P.S. I am using the web app but they also have native app options now

linucs,

This is a great suggestion, thanks!

linucs,

Guess you’re right, too bad I’m not a kid anymore.

Cool thing about being an EUer is that I don’t need to be undocumented, I could travel, work, live in another EU country with a different language from mine without a problem, but I currently busy in my own country and want to learn french

linucs,

Of course books are very valuable, but I would say that for language learning, at least for me, they are insufficient since they lack people pronouncing the words

linucs,

Scrubs is still my favorite. If you want a (very) little gem I would recommend Over the Garden Wall. Such a beautiful Autumn atmosphere, awesome music, a great story.

Why do trees stems grow new "parts" inside and not outside i.e. why is the oldest part of the stem the innermost "ring" and not the outermost?

Wouldn’t grow something from the inside require a very strong force to “move” the already present one? Instead growing from the last “layer” towards the outside would require a lot less force, but perhaps a lot more matter....

linucs,

Yes they are, I messed up and I was not even high

linucs,

Yeah my question was wrongly put but I thought trees did what you described skin does: I thought new tree cells were created in the middle and the outermost layers were the oldest ones.

linucs,

Hahaha those kids are idiots, dinosaurs for life!

linucs,

Same! All of Escher’s works are perfect for it, especially when I was reading Gödel, Escher, Bach

linucs, (edited )

So I understood that Tiktok, Instagram and Facebook users will be allowed (or they are already allowed) a choice whether to have a feed based on their interactions or not but what about other stuff like Whatsapp, what does it change for a WA user? Or Google Play? Or Android?

Edit: nevermind, I was thinking about DSA, this is DMA

linucs,

Can you please explain how you did it or link to a guide explaining it? It could be useful to many people

linucs,

But I really hope this sets a precedent for all other countries, need money to finance something? Just tax the shit out of Facebook. Of course it’s a joke, we should properly tax them in the first place, or better yet force them not to exploit people data for profit

Any weather apps that use the NOAA api?

I’ve been looking for a weather app to use but every app uses AccuWeather which actually gets their data from NOAA (which is public and always free to use) and then repackage it for their own profit, so I would like to not give them any traffic if possible and go straight to NOAA. Does anyone know any apps like this?

linucs,

That’d be great!

linucs,

:wq

linucs,

Awesome news! Hopefully more and more distros will catch up too.

linucs,

pre-installed

You don’t use Arch, btw

linucs,

I don’t know if this could help even with allergies but I usually do this piped.kavin.rocks/watch?v=I47xi2F3W9g and it’s awesome

linucs,

Antonio Meucci invented the telephone! en.m.wikipedia.org/…/Invention_of_the_telephone

linucs,

I felt the same way but then I read this and changed my mind about it blog.joinmastodon.org/…/what-to-know-about-thread…

Thinking about it I’m in an European country where Whatsapp is the default messenger app, if it had interoperability I could be on another FOSS app and be tracked by Meta just when I talk to people who are on Whatsapp and be free when talking to people not on Whatsapp, this could be great to make people switch “clients”, which is damn hard now because “everyone is on Whatsapp”. Interoperability is the shit and we should embrace it!

linucs,

Not if I’m talking to someone on Protonmail, Tutanota, etc.

Now would you prefer to have the possibility to talk privately at least to someone, even if just a handful of people, or be forced to never talk privately because you must use gmail to talk to anyone else?

linucs,

It’s not clear, are you saying that since they would get most of my data (which is an already flawed argument since for example now I have my partner, best friends and family on Signal which are 95% of my conversations, as opposed to 5% of people whom I talk to on Whatsapp) I should give them all of it?

The second point doesn’t even require to have Threads, they could already do that, now what?

linucs,

I said in a different thread but: It’s a good, and very scary, reading but I would argue that it does not directly translate here because Lemmy / Kbin and Reddit are not social media per se, they are content focused instead of being person focus. Here no one cares who you are, we are all here for content. The XMPP EEE succeeded because once defederated people were not able to talk to their friends, defederating Threads would cut us off from strangers and their content, it’s not a big deal.

We’ll see what happens, hopefully the Fediverse will not be another free social media attempt killed by greedy corporates.

linucs,

God I love FOSS, I contributed with a very tiny feature but it made me feel so good knowing I contributed to a beautiful, community owned, project

linucs,

Sorry I don’t feel like sharing my private info here, hope you undestand.

linucs,

We active!

linucs,

I propose to make it a 3 day party. Only one rule: no poop
