I don’t think you’re in the wrong to say that code nobody has reviewed has not proven safe, and a brand new project (of any kind) is not proven reliable. A brand new big project that’s purely vibe coded is every red flag of unsafe and unsustainable.
Yeaaah not to mention Immich already exists and is proven software.
Yes exactly, my potentially hot take is that twenty years from now we’ll look at immutability as the tipping point that sent Linux mainstream on desktop.
I think Fedora Kinoite is the best distro for someone coming from Windows due to KDE’s flexibility and similarity to Windows and it’s immutability. Default Ubuntu is great for people familliar with MacOS, and it can even be themed to be basically indistinguishable.
Signal is more like WhatsApp, Element/Matrix is aiming to be more like Telegram or Discord.
There was a Ted Talk a while back (I can’t remember who) where they said “I have always wanted to give a Ted Talk… but when I got selected to do this I realized that what I really wanted was to say I had given a Ted Talk”. Meaning they want to be known as someone who had given a Ted Talk, not actually go through the process of writing and delivering the Talk.
People who write open source code do it because they like the process of writing, just like an author enjoys writing books. LLMs are for people who just want to be able to say they have written a book. People who slop-code aren’t actually interested in learning how to code. Which is a fine toy for them to play with, but not sustainable (or reliable for others to use).
Yes exactly and I always consider Steam (and to a lesser degree the Kindle ecosystem), which make it obvious to me that interoperability and convenience are something consumers are willing to pay for.
50 upvotes and yet half the comments here are “it worked for me OP must be using it wrong” and the other half are "Using Plex is worse than bombing Palestinian children "
Fedora has two immutable distros KDE (Kinoite) and GNOME (Silverblue) and both are excellent and very stable.
I’ve seen that but it’s a weird vibe coded app and doesn’t actually work
ShelfMark is the go-to option now. It’s also far better than Readarr was and works seamlessly with both Prowlarr and Anna’s Archive.
I think CWA is the most robust option out there. BookLore was vibecoded and behaved in the typical weird/unexpectedly way vibecoded apps tend to. I haven’t tried the Fork of it, but CWA checks nearly all the boxes and is actively developed.
I wish ABS synced progress between formats with KOReader!
IIRC those updates were a series of bugfixes after a major update, which seems to be how they prefer to work.
No love lost for IBM but I still wouldn’t expect to see casually mentioned alongside Palantir.
Wow I went to fact check that claim and it’s actually no exaggeration. Here is the AP article.
Google and Amazon provide cloud computing and AI services to the Israeli military under “Project Nimbus,” a $1.2 billion contract signed in 2021, when Israel first tested out its in-house AI-powered targeting systems. The IDF has used Cisco and Dell server farms or data centers. Red Hat, an independent IBM subsidiary, also has provided cloud computing technologies to the Israeli military, while Palantir Technologies, a Microsoft partner in U.S. defense contracts, has a “strategic partnership” providing AI systems to help Israel’s war efforts.
Crazy to see Palantir, Google, Microsoft mentioned alongside …Red Hat.
IDK I think we’ll continue to see incremental gains for a long time, especially as normies abandon desktops/laptops entirely and the entire market shrinks. Windows will probably continue to dominate in enterprise for long past when it’s fashionable.
It’s crazy because Apple had every reason to be FAR ahead in that game.
This isn’t what you asked for exactly, but there is an app that allows you to easily install any APK, and many “regular” android apps from F-droid work fine on WearOS.
