That’s what I’m saying.
Your ghost is silly.
I never understood what it would help to have the data on a US server. It’s not that difficult to access it there from China. I access my server in Germany via SSH from Korea.
You’re missing my point that it’s not money the CCP is after but influence and power abroad. They already have absolute power at home.
Exactly, this asset is worth nothing to the CPP if sold.
If it was a fully private company which is supposed to make money, they would sell it and move on to invest their money somewhere else.
Regulating the market is important and is not done enough in the US, last time was decades ago with AT&T and Standard Oil. Today they should have broken up Apple, Google, Amazon, etc. To prevent monopolies but they don’t.
But yeah, politically it’s much easier to go after a Chinese company.
That is what everyone has been waiting and longing for!
I wonder how they decide what ads to put there
I did for many years. But then I moved to Korea and they don’t allow family plans and paying 4 individual ones is just not in our budget. Then probably just no YouTube for me.
Damn, I got my setup so perfect on the TV with SmartTube. But I will not be able to tolerate ads. Then I’d rather only watch on Firefox with uBlock on my laptop.
I think this is a easier way to interact with a chatbot than installing an extra app which behaves differently, etc. There are so many features I don’t use in software but others do, so why not.
Actually this makes me think if I could use facebooks llama via matrix on element, instead needing to run it on the command line.
As long as you host it yourself it doesn’t matter.
I was really dissatisfied that notes are always somehow weirdly shared with a propriatary backend. There is jtx Board which uses your CalDAV calendar (Nextcloud, Radicale, etc.) as a backend which is really cool. The UI is also OK, but there seems to be no (Linux) desktop app for that.
So I started https://github.com/jeena/JNotes because I was curious about developing for GNOME anyway. It’s going very slowly - because I am a stay at home dad with a one year old who demands all my attention :D - but it’s going forward, but I guess it’ll take another year before it’s usable ^^.
Actually I was hoping that there would be more notes apps using standard backends like CalDAV or IMAP, but it’s almost impossible to find something, everyone seems to want to implement their own backend and then charge for the synchronization.
15·7 months agoI am thankful for myself! I am my own moderator and my own admin. This way I almost don’t have to deal with other people. /s
I only have to deal with them in conversations like a coupple of days ago someone congratulated me to have written the new stupidest comment on Lemmy.
Anyway, Lemmy is where I spent most of my little time on the internet, I’m very suprised how well everything works despite it being alternative media without VC funding.
Yeah, it really comes down to that.
The german podcast landscape is basically compleatly donation based, almost no advertisement.
Sure I’ll let a binary blob running in my ker el to play a game, no problem.
I speak 4 languages, English, Swedish, German an Polish. At work in Swrden our office language was English because so many people from all over the world worked together. I was a consultant at the customers office. There was another consultant from Poland visiting the customer and after a heated meeting he sat down at his desk, which was adjesent to mine and called his collegues in Poland. Ha basically said that those Swedes are so stupid, they want us to use 9 women to give birth to the baby in one month instead of 9 months, without realizing that I could understand everything. I had to work hard to not burst out in loughter.
