And if it doesn’t find sources it can just make shit up! ;D

They do make excellent rubber duckies.

This is the way. (At least for a server)

Are they legal in any EU jurisdictions? I’d hope not.

Not to mention half of their TOS being illegal/unenforceable in the first place.

As someone who has implemented shopping carts, invoicing solutions and banking transactions I can assure you floats will be extremely painful for you.

A huge benefit of big decimals is that they don’t allow you to make a mistake (as easily) as floats where imprecision just “creeps in”.

The website generates a random value, your government signs a cert for that value. That’s what makes it single use and zero trust.

MAS has activation for the 3 years (or maybe even 6) of the extended support too…

The fucked up part is nowadays third parties like banks or sometimes even governments make apps rely on Google services, so you can’t use an ungoogled phone for stuff you actually need for life…

It’s a bailout where the taxpayers actually get something back.

How is it legal to bail out whole banks or other large companies and not get anything in return?

Sure I can use my bank’s website (and it’s a shit experience) but they still want me to have their own app for authentication… Don’t even offer anything else at this point.

This might be an issue because f-droid re-signs apps with their own keys…

I mean depends on enforcement I guess.

Why exactly do we need signing authorities? Software isn’t zero trust like websites. You do need to trust the developer - even a legitimate one. Signing apps with verified developer keys will only hurt small independent developers, open source projects and freedom enabling stuff like user patching.

It only works to solidify monopolies and doesn’t protect you against shit.

Um, can you give some examples (with proof) of where LTT got paid to give a good review?

That’s an extreme accusation, and everything I’ve watched for the past decade+ seems to contradict that.

For obvious reasons that’s something they want to avoid. Hell they’re still happy to get on the bad side of companies for integrity, they’re just way less aggressive and outspoken about it compared to GN.

In fact I feel like GN sometimes overplays it a bit.

I mean it’s fair to avoid “drama” no matter who stirs it, but most of their controversies were fairly well handled and largely overblown.

I think my biggest issue was the whole “trust me bro” “warranty”, but that was mostly a cultural clash and Linus still had some good points even originally when he talked about it, even if the way he did so was extremely tone deaf.

Again, what? Where? Their most informative videos do reviews and testing, which is regular journalism at best.

I can remember maybe one or two videos that were somewhat investigative.

It’s just not what they do or what they claim to do.

Especially since they could ship the JS polyfill With the browsers. Seems like a decent middle ground to me.

In this case it is purely fault of the money incentive though. Noone would spend so much effort and computation power on AI if they didn’t think it could make them money.

The funniest part is though that it’s only theoretical anyway, everyone is only losing on it and they’re most likely never gonna make it back.

I don’t think LTT ever did or claimed to do investigative journalism (or really journalism at all)?

They make entertainment videos that sometimes have mildly informative value.

Umm… The moccamaster brews a wildly different cup from the V60 (unless you brew the V60 in a very particular and arguably just a wrong way).

If you really think it adds convenience but want a similar taste profile to the V60 there are other electric pour overs that match it closer.

Forgejo is a Great fork. Just like Gitea you can have a public instance of it.

The main issue for collaboration is you’re putting extra hurdles in the way (people needing yet another account).
