Why does Gemini even require TLS/SSL to begin with?

to facilitate TOFU.

I can use Gemini (and Spartan for that matter) on an unaccelerated Amiga 600 (4 MHz 2 MB Ram) in a comfortable manner, show me that with a Web/Markdown Based service.

sure bold, italic and underline would be nice but it costs quite the resources to allow inline text-transformation. Numbered List, just put a Number after the Bullet Point.

Honestly, I expect Gemini to remain a niche thing pretty much forever.

It does not offer what a regular user wants: a convenient, interactive, extensible, multipurpose Web. For most, it’s incredibly boring and outdated. Even worse that it requires its own browser or translation through the local server.

which is EXACTLY the point of Gemini. Focus is on the content. And well, you need a dedicated browser for the web as well.

tlgs exists, and I believe that it aint the only one.

Build search engines that only index pages that contain the smolweb headers defined in the standard

and how do you propose to impose that? Heck robots.txt doesn’t even seem to be honored!

I don’t know, this blog posts reads like “I hate everything that makes Gemini Gemini (unable to commercialize, limited gemtext capabilities, TOFU and TLS) , but I actually do like it.”

Lol? How is having the mod log publica bad thing? Everyone can see what shit and good a mod does in any given Community. That’s a win in my book.

In this case you trade it in for not being confused for Minecraft anymore though

what do you mean? I got tons of reavers, and not just Firefly but also Serenity and Warhammer

mhm, and how would the distribution inside an LLM work? Are those code snippets CoPilot et al produce come with dedicated license sections?

And regarding how it would help selfhosting the code: it wouldn’t be on the GITHub servers owned by Microsoft, which owns/operates CoPilot. Its akin to feeding the LLM directly by pushing it to their servers.

Whoops.

My deepest apologies. I only skimmed it and didn’t realise that what I linked was the mail repository.

So yeah, the calendar has no sources for whatever reason.

How would that work? Proton is swiss and CIA is 'murica?

You go here: https://github.com/ProtonMail/android-mail

Yeah I don’t understand why they don’t have a codeberg or similar that they host themselves.

It would have only taken you two clicks to see if the source code of proton calendar for mobile devices is released or not.

spoiler: Yes the code for iOS and android is on GitHub.

Depends, do you trust Apple with your privacy? And how about Amazon, do you trust them?

I work in the public health sector.

And I am trans. Need more reasons?

Unless you’ve installed a linux filesystem driver, your Windows can’t do shit with that apparently unformatted partition.

But you should, since there are accessibility rules against low contrast.

is it really so hard to look at the image

Uuuuuuuh… Have you considered that there are people who have problems with their eyes or are outright blind?

Don’t be an ass again.

In the EU and UK this is also forbidden as rejecting should be as simple as accepting cookies.

Its most likely that this isn’t your browsers doing, but in this case ebay. It successfully recognised your computer by matching your configuration, ip, and browser engine and thus was able to present you with a familiar experience^tm.

Don’t forget ActiveX Objects which could run code outside your browser, and for some strange reason was required for windows update to function.

Donationware >>> Adware

GDPR@linuxfoundation.org would only be suitable for requests made by EU-Citizens no?

Okay then this one has a headstart then :)

This will be Tay all over again.

buy buy buy!

Those people need the outrage and hate conduits so they can distract themselves from their own lives.

even then Microsoft would not survive the EU as these changes you mention are solely to gatekeep gaming to their platform.

Also given Vulkan being pretty on top of things, HDR FSR/DLSS, Raytracing; Devs could simply opt to use the non-propritary interface.

Also, besides the EU, Microsoft would get A LOT of flak from digital Store Front Vendors like Steam, Epic, Blizzard Activision, EA…

The original CDs of UT 99 had the linux Binaries on them, but (as mentioned in the UT2004 comment) Atari Castrated the Steam version.

Use https://flathub.org/apps/com.epicgames.ut99 to play UT 99

it used to have one though; don’t just look at the Steam Page :)

You are missing that Atari castrated the Steam version since Steam is only windows (at that time) they thought they wouldn’t need to ship the linux binaries with the downloadable version of UT2k4.

So you get the following options:

• Use the UT2k4 linux setup from the original dvd
• run UT2k4 via wine/proton
• use the Flatpak launcher, copy the gog/steam data into the appropriate folder (the flatpak runner will tell you where)

via the latter I got this:

Since release.
