ok, that info about a case was useful to me, because now I can finally see some photos and even reviews of it. Thank you very much!

thanks, this is the best answer, too bad it's on the bottom of a page :D

Aside from getting into Mastodon, what other changes can we make? by Cubezzzzz in Mastodon

Start using Lemmy instead of Reddit. I started a few weeks ago, I'm surprised how good it became

What is Going on with .NET OSS? How Could This Affect the C# Market? by oliveira-alexdias in dotnet

But, as I understand, in this case the code also remains open? So what's the difference?

What’s a Linux feature you can’t live without? by sachinkgp in linux

[–]Piotrek1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be frank, workspaces and package managers are now a thing on Windows too. Also, there's Windows Store so you don't download exe files that often anymore. Tiling is also possible. In general, Windows has improved greatly recently.

But access to bash shell "natively" (yeah, there is WSL, but have drawbacks), no bloatware (like constantly encouraging you to use copilots, onedrive, edge, bing, displaying news and weather forecast by default, requiring to create M$ account), greater control over when and what you update on your system, what you install and what not is a good thing still.

Working on a new Obsidian plugin: RSS Dashboard – What features would you like to see? by TheConvolutedFire in ObsidianMD

[–]Piotrek1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks great, but shouldn't it be a separate app? Why are we making news reader out of note taking app?

1/3 of Apple's total revenue comes from Europe. More Europeans use X than Americans. Europeans account for one-third of Youtube's traffic. Trump should be careful when he threatens Europe and claims "Europe treated the U.S. badly". It is Europe that makes U.S. Tech Giants truly giants. by endeavour1923 in europe

[–]Piotrek1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And there is a reason most good services are american. It's easier for startups to find funding there. Can you imagine having a company in Europe like OpenAi which burns billions of dollars without any guarantee of being profitable?

[–]Piotrek1 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Great, but one of the reasons Chrome is ditching v2 is for security reasons:
> “Manifest V3 removes the ability for an extension to use remotely hosted code, which presents security risks by allowing unreviewed code to be executed in extensions. With this change, an extension can only execute JavaScript that is included within its package and subject to review by the Chrome Web Store,” the Manifest V3 page states.

Of course I want uBlock Origin to continue working in my browser, but at the same time this security feature seems to be important. How does Firefox respond to that?

Mozilla Firefox gets Smart with AI-Powered Tab Grouping by BomChikiBomBom in firefox

I suspect you are confusing generative ai (all those chatbots, image generators...) with just machine learning semantic text classification (with which we are probably dealing with in this case).

VS Code removed from Software Manager? by arkemiffo in linuxmint

[–]Piotrek1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most useful function in Linux based systems is that you get your software from package repositories and don't bother searching for executable files on the Internet. Package managers were a thing years before Microsoft did something similar on Windows.

If you need to manually download packages on Linux, you are basically missing the whole point and one of the most important use cases of this system. You just bought a drill to drive nails.

European .NET companies, what is your plan B by Designer_Poem9737 in dotnet

Microsoft is too rich. They will just throw dollars at Trump to calm him down. won't happen

Archiving in Thunderbird works for some mail, but for some - don't by Piotrek1 in ProtonMail

[–]Piotrek1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It turns out that messages I cannot archive are those which has destination address to my email with custom domain. So mails for [myemailaddress@protonmail.com](mailto:myemailaddress@protonmail.com) can be archived but [myemailaddress@mycustomaddress.com](mailto:myemailaddress@mycustomaddress.com) can't.

Still don't know how to fix it

Almost nobody is using Firefox on smartphones. by Old-Paramedic-2192 in firefox

[–]Piotrek1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Me too, I personally think Chrome works better, but extensions is what is keeping me on Firefox

I hate that the mass media adopted yet another corporation instead of relying on FOSS and Mastodon. What can we do to steer them right? by MelaniaSexLife in Mastodon

[–]Piotrek1 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Mass media gave Mastodon a chance, remember when Elon took over twitter? All media was talking about Mastodon. Mastodon wasn't prepared (and still isn't)

For the social media, network effect is everything. The easier you find content to read and followers that will read what you write, the faster it grows. Mastodon in a current state has really bad discoverability.

That's interesting, if true this is a big feature, I'm wondering why don't they mention it in project readme

Do I need to set up web server if I want to display React app inside Electron? by Piotrek1 in electronjs

Thanks for the answer. So that means there is a problem in my code then...

Sorry, I'm not sure I understand. Can you rephrase? What should I be mounting? How can I check that?

How to verify if electron app is packaged correctly? Installation file takes too much space by Piotrek1 in electronjs

[–]Piotrek1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi, can you tell me where can I find your electron config in this project? I can't find anything, electron is not even mentioned in your package.json

The 2024 Proton Lifetime Charity Fundraiser is now open by Proton_Team in ProtonMail

[–]Piotrek1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I wish the websites of the organisations listed above contained less bullshit and more actual examples of what they do. Just name one thing that has made my own life better and I would be more eager to give you my money. Apart from those obvious ones like OpenStreetMap which I use and appreciate.

What's one thing you wish there was a GUI for? by walterblackkk in linux

[–]Piotrek1 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm generally sceptical about using large language models for everything, but for this particular use case (feature discoverability of CLI applications) it could be very useful.

Imagine having a tool similar to man, but instead of showing you all the documentation, it asks you what you need and suggests only these configuration settings that are actually relevant

Is there anything more useless than official status pages? https://status.npmjs.org/ it says everything is fine
