Don’t forget they’re usually also agains cancel culture, which makes this even better.

Wireguard (which is what tailscale is built on) doesn’t even require you to open ports on both sides.

Set up wireguard on a vps first, where it is accessible, then set it up from within your network. It’ll traverse NAT and everything, and you don’t have to open a port on your network.

Tailscale is the exact same thing, just easier because it does everything for you (key generation, routing, …). Their service replaces your vps, up to you if you think that’s acceptable or not. IMHO, wireguard is worth learning at least. I eventually (partially) switched to tailscale because I’m lazy, and all services I host have authentication anyway, with vpn just being a second layer.

According to the dutch news orgs, he made a “threatening gesture” towards a (female) camera operator, after he asked not to be filmed, repeatedly (there were not supposed to be cameras at that point, so the request was not unjustified). There was no physical contact.

Here’s the source (in dutch)

Maybe technically, but in reality there’s just very few “good” tablets when it comes to hardware. Samsung has a few, but the rest’s just plastic trash.

No proper hardware, no sales, no tablet android users, no android apps for tablets.

I don’t see how this would fix that.

Epic’s at a 25% cut now? I thought they still were at 12.

I remember Sweeney trying to convince users games would be cheaper because of the lower cut. Of course every publisher just pockets the difference and gamers are stuck with the garbage launcher.

Not to mention them paying for exclusivity to indie studios, only for the indie studio to make way more money once the game released on steam, despite the cut.

The app store is the only way to get apps on ios, whereas steam is not the only way to get games on PC.

It’s the biggest one, yes, but no one HAS to use it. It does hold some power by virtue of having the majority of the gaming population as its user base, but no other storefront has even tried. The only one that has any value over steam is GOG, the rest are objectively worse.

How? The sublinks devs started the project just because they didn’t want to work on Lemmy for whatever reason. If they did, they would have worked on Lemmy. It’s either Lemmy AND Sublinks, or Just Lemmy with the same developers.

Having multiple implementations is a good thing, regardless of what language they use. They all implement the same protocol, should be (mostly) compatible, and can learn from (and compete with) each other.

Look at other OSS. There’s so many Linux distributions, Why doesn’t everyone just work on a single one?

Because everyone has a slightly different view on things. This makes the OSS community stronger.

I have seen people wanting to do Java, and while I personally prefer rust, I do see why.

Outside of the entire Sublinks discussion, it’s important to note that Java is not just Java anymore either. Kotlin offers many of the same advantages syntax-wise that Rust does (including the lack of null), and has access to Java’s excellent ecosystem.

Ultimately, it is up to people to decide what they want to use. Regarding of your opinions on Java or Rust, it is a valid choice either way for this type of software. It’s a personal choice.

I’ve never really seen this in (Java/Rust/PHP) backend personally, only in client-side JS (the CORS preflight).

It’s a security feature for browsers doing calls (checking the CORS headers before actually calling the endpoint), but for backends the only place it makes sense is if you’re implementing something like webhooks, to validate the (user submitted) endpoint.

Even if that were true - does it matter?

Java is a perfectly valid choice for something like this.

Yes, Rust is “faster”, uses less memory, etc…

Java is fast enough, though. It offers a fantastic ecosystem and, seeing as these projects are ran by volunteers who do this in their free time, there’s a lot more people willing to chip in some work.

They don’t because it’s not true.

There’s a few things moving to quarkus, but a lot of that is being pushed by Redhat (whose own software was not even spring boot but JEE)

I’m not disagreeing with you on that, only with the suggestion that my comment (or this post, for that matter) are a generalization towards all christians.

The post clearly only applies to those who would use the bible as a source in their arguments, not to those who are reasonable and see it for what it is.

My comment uses “christians” within that context - it is not a standalone piece of text. I am, (IMHO clearly) referring to the same christians the post is. I’m just going to assume it’s a misunderstanding, because I find the suggestion of me generalising while the comment is within context to be quite disingenuous.

Please consider my reply in context of the post, it is not a standalone piece. It’s clear who “christians” refers to in this context.

You really can’t use the bible against christians, unfortunately. With the millions of translations it went through, it is damn near illegible.

This passage is probably one of the worst, too.

They will just respond with “tHaTS NOt wHaT iT MeANs”, and you can’t really argue with that because it’s so poorly written.

I’m confused - does it explicitly ask you now?

I’ve had firefox as default for a while now

it’s still comically bad compared to various alternatives, even apples-to-apples alternatives like C#.

I’d be interested to hear why. IMO Java has the superior ecosystem, runtime(s!), and community. The best part is that you don’t even HAVE to use java to access all this - you can just use kotlin, groovy, scala,… instead.

In terms of the language itself, while it (still) lacks some more modern language features, it has improved massively in that area as well, and they’re improving at a significant rate still. It also suffers from similar issues as PHP, where it has some old APIs that they don’t want to get rid of (yet?), but overall it’s a solid language.

And the people hating on it somehow never used any version above 8, which is 10 years old and EOL.

Kubernetes yes, but minikube is kinda meh as a way to install it outside of development environments.

There’s so many better manageable ways like RKE/Rancher (which gives you the possibility to go k3s),Kubespray or even kubeadm.

All of those will result in a cluster that’s more suitable for running actual workloads.

Which is why we have HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, supported by all major browsers.

Unless you’re doing something outrageously non-standard, there is no reason to block specific browsers.

And that’s only 1 global pandemic!
