32000 bikes on Berlins Autobahn
  • yeah i know, sorry about that :P i was using boost to post this and didn't know it would automatically host it using imgur

    any recommendations for alternatives these days? i would've gone for something like catbox.moe or 0x0.st but I think those delete uploads after a certain amount of time

    Part of an event called Sternfahrt where cyclists protest for policy changes by taking over the city on 20 routes covering 2000 km of public roads.

    A while ago one of my old accounts got banned from r/news for saying I wouldn't bone some celebrity. Now if I forget and comment on a front page post with any account this happens.
  • +1 for RSS but it doesn't really replace the comments. granted on reddit the quality of discussion has for sure declined and lemmy is still a little dead sometimes. but it still provides value (to me)

    someone should build a distributed comment system that works with plain old RSS feeds

  • Linux users with uncommon or unusual setups: tell us about it
  • i have a gentoo system with a custom s6-rc service tree that fully replaces openrc and boots via s6-linux-init.

    instead of a display manager i have tinydm (from postmarketos) and autologin setup. since i use full-disk encryption and suspend-to-disk i find that i don't need the extra login step into my user session.

    i have a bunch of bemenu-based helpers for wifi, bluetooth, vpn, audio, passwords, mounting drives, etc.

    i don't have polkit or sudo installed. i use doas.

  • Your journey with Lemmy: When and why did you join? When did you leave and come back? Are you finally settled?
  • i joined mastodon in 2017. at the time i was also cutting off whatsapp and facebook and was just generally getting deeper into foss and fedi.

    at the same time i was a heavy reddit user and was looking for fedi-based alternatives. i was following prismo development for a while, but that never took off.

    i eventually joined lemmy in 2020 but never really found the community, that reddit had (and tbf still has for most topics).

    last year during the API fiasco i finally made this account and have been pretty happily reading (and sometimes posting) here.

  • Gentoo goes Binary!
  • i see. binary packages have the potential to be a great compliment to building... right now i tend to agree with you. i often run into my USE config not having bins.

    how did gentoo compare to nix then in your experience (excluding bin packages)?

  • Has anyone used a programmable keyboard with "home row mods" like this?
  • i have been running qmk keyboards with capslock bound to esc on tap, alt when pressed as well + evdoublebind to achieve the same for the laptop's builtin keyboard

    i do like the idea of not having to come off the home row for ctrl-* mappings in vim

  • Paying everyone the same salary, no matter where they work from
  • maybe my comment about gitlab didn't come across right. i do find oxide's model to be better and agree with their criticism of gitlab's.

    and as much as you are absolutely right about labour being treated much like any other commodity required for a company to extract value, that is precisely the issue being pointed at here, isn't it?

    we should differentiate and acknowledge that people are more complex than that. their experiment seems to create an atmosphere where work is being done despite compensation not being used as an incentive and instead to enable the worker to do the work.

    i personally don't think this should be a responsibility of a company at all, but rather society (or the state) should assure these conditions... but we are stuck with capitalism and this is a step towards something better :)

    oxide.computer Compensation as a Reflection of Values / Oxide

    Our thoughts on compensation, and how they reflect Oxide's values.

    Compensation as a Reflection of Values / Oxide

    Found via https://yorickpeterse.com/articles/what-it-was-like-working-for-gitlab/

    I always considered the gitlab model, where the comp can be calculated via a public online tool, to be pretty progressive.

    While this certainly doesn't scale (as they admit) I think the sentiment is right.

    OrganicMaps: Why is this still the default experience for public transit routing?

    I am aware of the guide on their github

    https://github.com/organicmaps/organicmaps/blob/master/docs/EXPERIMENTAL_PUBLIC_TRANSPORT_SUPPORT.md

    But that is not something I would want to do for myself, much less so the people I usually recommend OM to :/

    Is it just the lack of UI/UX or is there actually a quality issue regarding the GTFS/OSM source data?

    One way to make piracy obsolete

    too bad this means only losses for the middle-men, that also pump millions into lobbying for increasingly stupid IP laws - so it's not likely to happen :/

    Anybody have a solution for dotfiles outside /home

    on gentoo for example I have accrued a few files under /etc/portage that to my knowledge just have to live there...

    right now I basically rely on my backups for this. but maybe somebody knows a clever way to handle this?
