I mostly use Discord for a few group chats, unixporn (please post more of it to Lemmy :3 !unixporn@lemmy.world) and some BG3 stuff. If the group chats moved to Matrix+Jitsi or even some form of Signal (that is still foss and does not require a phone number, self-hosted if possible) I would barely use Discord.
Edit because somehow I missed the most relevant part: I already barely get memes or trolls so not too many changes there.
I pretty much only use Lemmy but also contact friends and share photos on a Nextcloud instance one of them kindly provided (I assume it isn’t federated though?).
I would really like to start using matrix but unless I host my own instance and get everything ready I’ll never be able to convince my friends to switch, though some of them are slowly getting fed up with discord too.
I find the way of expressing it a little excessive but completely understand the sentiment and based on some recent irl experiences I completely understand such an outburst.
I have prepended an almost every time I’ve said seriously that sort of thing to someone.
I get them on desktop before my phone gives me a notification lol.
For that kind of thing I use jitsi, works great and I have access to a sort of private instance that I use occasionally. Works for just voice too but it can be a little unreliable (the last two times I had a weird issue where the others suddenly couldn’t hear me and vice versa but reloading fixed it) so something else might be better for that…
Just download it?
Also muscle memory. I keep typing aliases I only have on my computer :(
If you avoid 100% of information by for example being dead this does work.
Couldn’t they remotely connect to them?
I don’t really see the connection to my comment.
In this example wouldn’t the programmer be more of a pharmacist? (The animal body the computer and its brain the user?)
Your statement is not wrong, it just seems unrelated.
That sounds extremely lazy. I’d expect more from a dev team.
If it’s publicly accessible it likely has a bunch of vulnerabilities so I too understand that look.
One may also end up developing in the areas that the above post considers inaccessible where their knowledge is likely still required.
I like informing yourself about the note taking app you’re writing with a little more. It makes it a bit more obvious that it’s kind of obvious but can have many advantages.
Personally though I don’t really see upside of building a computer as you could also just research things and not build it or vice versa. (Maybe it’s good for looking at bug reports?)
A 30 minute explanation on how CPUs work that I recently got to listen in on was likely more impactful on my C/assembly programming than building my own computer was.
I’ve used Sycthing but it was somewhat finicky.
I agree but windows does come with a version of tar preinstalled installed. I’m not sure if it uses xz though.
The reason I named xz though is the xz-utils backdoor that was such a big deal.
What does that face mean?
