I don’t get the whole MIT vs GPL rivalry. They both have their uses. If you want to use GPL, go for it. And if you want something like MIT that works too.

Thankfully both exist because I think we definitely need both.

Imagine plugging in your car and all of the sudden you hear engine revving noises.

Actually, to be honest… I’d probably love that.

If modern cheap cars used good transmissions there’d be no need for manual. But man… I am still super annoyed by anything that isn’t A dual-clutch transmission.

I want power instantly.

The only way to get that is EV or manual transmission.

This stuff isn’t intentional. It’s just that MS is really bad at handling errors. So they just gave up and put a generic message.

You probably installed the graphical one. emacs-nox is command-line only and significantly smaller.

I realize half of you people never touch it, but come on. It’s not that large a package these days.

This. Really it’s a problem trying to mod on lemmy because of combining instance admin and mod logs into one. But a feature like this would help.

A cross post button or option of some kind.

Plexamp is pretty good. I use it on Mac and Android.

Latest update has some of the tools for me.

Video is 2 years old. This isn’t new.

First round of modtools added

THANK YOU!

I’ve been wanting mod tools since I started using Lemmy a few months ago. Even this little bit is super helpful.

TIL. I didn’t care about this too much but I just turned it on and I kinda like it

They do charge the 12v, but when that battery no longer works properly, there’s no cut over to an inverter of some kind. And there probably should be

I’ve even had people almost use it instead of the normal button. “Oh not that one. The button where your thumb is”

I drive an EV now. Where’s the ‘never’ option?

Or drug money from selling to a foreign country

But that’s not what happens.

Greatest recent example is Elizabeth Warren. She supposedly wasn’t going to bow down to the big banks and wrote legislation to “help” the consumer. All she did was end up writing legislation that the big banks highly approved of, killed off many of the smaller banks and made banking way less competitive so that the consumers are suffering.

But if you get a coalition (example ICANN) to regulate stuff, you’ll get a better mix of both small and large companies.

And we’ve seen too much industry manipulation in government too.

But the big companies turning their platforms into absolute crap isn’t actually a problem for the industry. Other players will rise up (such as lemmy, kbin, mastodon, and other non activity pub sites) and make good platforms.

Regulation should come from the industry not the legislators. Legislators don’t know enough about it anyway and will end up just getting the biggest players to write it anyway.

But if the industry does it, certification would be voluntary and it would be transparent who wrote the regulation. Much easier for smaller players to contribute and shape it.

And the best part is that if it sucks, they don’t have to participate. And then they can try again
