If you have an Intel Raptor Lake system and you're in the northern hemisphere, chances are that your machine is crashing more often because of the summer heat. I know because I can literally see which EU countries have been affected by heat waves by looking at the locales of Firefox crash reports coming from Raptor Lake systems.

@nextcloud releases a new video / blogpost for Nextcloud Talk for #DataControl.

The blog post embeds Google trackers.

The video can *only* be watched on a Google surveillance platform.

The app depends on Google / Apple for notifications.

Does anyone else see the problem here? None of these are necessary.

@c8h4 @dalias By the way, you can also ditch Linux: https://lwn.net/SubscriberLink/1026558/7c46a42a4e8002f7/

At least I'd expect most BSDs to just ban it on sight, like due to not wanting a repeat of the BSDi vs. AT&T lawsuit.
But LLVM… yikes, goodbye GPU drivers.

@dalias It's sad. LLVM has actually been officially tainted: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/632151fbeea972f4aa3c14921eca1e45c07646f3

While digging, I found they actually *allow* AI slop: https://llvm.org/docs/DeveloperPolicy.html#ai-generated-contributions

Guess it's time to drop LLVM everywhere. I would consider using *any* of it a complete risk.

If you asked a programmer whether it is possible to write a really short program that’s stable, fast, deals with all edge cases (foreseeable and not) and is understandable by human beings, they’d say “no, engineering requires trade offs”.

But when it comes to open source licenses, brevity of license text is seen as the main concern. Hence why people like stuff like the “do WTF you like”license.

Please, grasp that explicit error handling is as valuable in legal drafting as it is in coding.

I think one main issue I have with the whole "EURO Stack" stuff is that it is not looking for an alternative. It's "we want what we got just with EU companies". But the fact that the Internet and its services have been turned into a mall is the big fucking problem. I don't want a "European Facebook" built on the same logic of exploitation.
