If your experience tells you the open source community is less vulnerable to backdoors or something, reconsider that.
I only said that I agreed with you in those words…
Do you think backdoors are the only threat? or the biggest?? in both cases, you’d be wrong. That’s the whole point in this exchange of opinions.
I am not saying this as a moderator: you’re person of obnoxious answers. Probably far too intelligent to even consider that you’re actually interacting with other human beings that may not want to engage or sacrifice their time with your rants. But I don’t ban based on personality.
Anyway, I don’t have to answer any of your questions. Typing comes too fast on your keyboard. Try stepping away, read, click the links (like redishiel CVE), take a deep breath, live more calmly.
I will post a reply to you reply on Redishell. So that you can check again what happened there. You went too fast and hit your own wall.
Here’s your reply to Redishell. You answered “To anyone confused: […]” and went on and on talking about backdoors.
I was thinking on hosting a static site, renting my own VPS. I always write in markdown, so pandoc would suffice (even if it were just a starting point…) Since I’d be using markdown, the content is highly transferable (e.g. when I wanted to move onto Publii, Ghost or other engine).
In your case, I’d recommend checking https://writefreely.org/
The goal is on documentation itself. There’s technical stuff that I do, combining the docs of 2 or more software pieces. These don’t have much space anywhere. At some point, I have been doing this with the assistance of AI. That’s why I started to wonder, maybe it’s not worth the effort… But that’s a negative thought I might just put aside. I am very thankful for all the inspiring and motivating answers I am getting here.
self-hosting implies making the service available for yourself with tunnels or port forwards. Yet, I’ve been running searxng container and accessing it via localhost without issues. I could write a guide and share my docker compose file…
the only loss here is my time as a moderator :P
I am not banning anyone, you were quite civil in this “fight” 1
Do keep in mind that all this has a lot of “editor wars” vibes. But the conflict goes beyond Debian (e.g. including Rust in Linux kernel), and actual harmful discussions between Rust and C/C++ people is REAL, damaging our communities, and very much driven by generations/ network-effect. And this is just sad. It’s not a technical issue, and overcoming it seems nearly impossible at the moment.

1 I’d call it discussion, but it seems to me that ‘whoever loves Digit’ was ranting more on their own behalf… as per their own words:
Awareness should be raised for this stuff, because people are sadly not as concerned as they should be about the state of cybersecurity right now. It’s particularly an issue in Linux / FOSS circles where there seems to be more of a false sense of security these days.
I agree with these words, but not all you said (specifically, backdoors to me are a smaller concern in the software industry nowadays in comparison to the Redishell provided that you were unable to fully understand). Anyway, I don’t see reason to remove any of the most downvoted comments you have. But I will take the opportunity here to raise a warning to you. OR, let’s make it a personal advice: arguing on the internet is not worth the emotional toll. As with any advice, you can either take it or leave it. Good luck!
https://alovoa.com/ has an app on f-droid, they probably need the users, hehe!
There’s also badger (animal and verb), not sure how to interpret further tho… other than the wordplay, then it’s up to viewer to actively construct some sense imho
Cure for what? That’s a fascist argument. I am not accusing you. Just wanted to inform. I was intellectualizing like that once: if all humans die, life on the planet would thrive, species that go extinct wouldn’t be an issue we would only be seeing it as a product of the evolution of more biodiversity for sure…
Yet… A friend pointed out, that such disease is just a theorization and reality has shown that this kind of scenarios are lived in, for example, catastrophes. In those cases, the world ending event hits harder to the most vulnerable. Typically, the poorest fraction. Billionaire and other rich people will have resources, bunkers, time, and so on… They may even be saved.
And this is actually their agenda in, for example, climate change denialism and inaction.
That’s one reason why elites don’t care about the ecocide.
Shitpost, I won’t argue
And, there’s also that monkey with infectious disease that scaped the crash site of the truck that was carrying them
I believe it’s intentional. Then, you interpret the original post this is being replied to, as the content of such bubble. Alas, I am still figuring out what’s the meaning of it all…
It’s been communal tradition ever since ThePirateBay got into these “DNS wars” and “Domain switching”. In the end, TPB kind of faded out. But same practice goes for many pirate sites. That’s the point :) so, be aware it’s a great way to find URLs for these o7
Resistance is futile
hey. thanks. I just got back from holidays, I will go through reports and all soon-ish.
Stremio, Torrentio and a VPN enter the room… ;)
Only one was missing. It was not contagious. Idk if they found it or killed it. Or if he’s on lemmy already; p
You can also put cork on fire, wait it to cool off and then paint you face. That’s a peaceful way to get shot. Follow me for more tips!
“Allow me to interject and explain the four liberties…” (Or, goto fsfe.org/freesoftware )
If I understand correctly the biggest issue for FFMPEG and other projects is not only the Google and Microsoft that use them without giving back, but their chosen License. They gave permission to corporations to do this. One of the potential ways to fix this situation, is to change the license. For example from LGPL to AGPL. And then they can sell the legalese package of allowing them to break their license. The biggest difficulty is that, as a project, they’d need consent from every past and future contributors. So, yeah. I get it. This is a mess.
It would be way more easier if more corporations donated to open source projects… There’s too much labour that’s invisible
