I’m somewhat interested in what’s coming up from Kärcher. Being a company based in Germany, EU, I’m stupidly hoping that EU data protection laws prevent them from doing the shittiest things.

If I have something serious, I will set up automatic upgrades. If short downtimes are ok, also with automatic reboots when the kernel updates.
If it’s not anything serious, whenever I remember to.

Why would anyone think that FSF is capable of releasing a unique and good device? It’s gonna be a bog-standard Android device with some software modified/removed.
Might be ok for some people still though. Also I’ll be happy to be wrong about my cynicism.

It’s not bad if you don’t need historical backups. I kinda think I do, so I use https://github.com/rustic-rs/rustic becase rust
Restic (https://github.com/restic/restic) is probably a better choice if you’re not a rust-freak like me.

Ad money.

Matrix seems to work well. I’m on a smallish non-profit server. I regard it as the premium open-source step forward from IRC.
The worst problem is that there are really no channels that I care to follow.

Ruby is object-oriented, modelled after Smalltalk mostly. So
irb(main):001:0> 10.class
=> Integer
So you’ll just have implement the method “years” on the Integer (or something more generic like Numeric) class and then “ago” on whatever class the years method returned.
You might imagine that you can do something like 10.years().ago() in python but the parser prevents you:
>>> 10.years
File "<python-input-0>", line 1
10.years
^
SyntaxError: invalid decimal literal
Doesn’t seem like it would have to prevent it, back in ruby:
irb(main):001:0> 10.0.class
=> Float
Ruby is a pretty cute language in my opinion, and I find it sad that python kinda drove over it.

My NAS is a Raspberry Pi4 with a single consumer-level SSD. My backups sometimes complete.

Fine product but is it FOSS?

What’s Plex’s use case? Why not just mpv locally?

The times when a single developer was important to Linux were in the 90s.

Element X is a completely different beast though. Not only is it a successful Rust rewrite, but they also fixed the system architecture of Matrix to improve speeds. They haven’t matched Telegram’s usability though, but they’re close to Signal’s.

Good ol’ Rust Rewrite fixing everything.
Have kids, kill your kids, check out cutlery, kill yourself, kill others, visit toilet. In this order.

Is this a cute joke or is he being serious and oblivious?
Humanity: yes, let’s replace all of the above. 100% unemployment rate is the only way to go.
It’s fine. I kinda dislike the devices themselves that are required to run it, though. Too big.
