on 75% of European businesses fear a US tech kill switch could deal an economic 'death blow' – driving a search for sovereign alternatives in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk · 2d ago
I’ve been saying this for years. It’s been dumb to rely on the US for a loooong time, yet so much of the rest of the world does.
Imagine if they had spent all that money on building up and supporting FOSS instead.

Not really. I run one. You can still host them yourself.
I have no idea how easy it is to subscribe to one though

Unfortunately, there are a lot of health issues that cause people to sweat all night, and be stinky in the morning, regardless of blankets.
Ask me how I know :(

I switched to this setup after I saw the drama behind ttrss. I’ve been loving both, even if it was a bit of a pain to import the OPML.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=VwZi58u1FjI - The Dragon Speech
All the higher mammals learn by playing, by doing, by interacting. And indeed, the higher the mammal, the more of its life it spends in play to prepare itself for adulthood. So you can see, this active role of the mind is fundamental to the way we think. It’s wired into our brains.
It’s a really great speech, and a lot of it is about the failures of our educational system.

on What do you do for email? in c/privacy@lemmy.ml · 15 Sep 2026
It means I have an old desktop in my closet, that I use to manage my own email. Here’s an example on what it takes to set it up: linuxvox.com/…/install-and-configure-postfix-and-…
www.mutt.org is how I browse, manage, and send my email

Yes, it’s been very reliable. IME, the vast majority of people who complain about deliverability issues are spammersmarketers. They set up their own servers, send out a bunch of spamnewsletters, then complain that they get marked as spam. I don’t have much sympathy for them.
Of course, I’m not saying that it never happens to legitimate email, but IME, that is increasingly rare, especially after setting up DKIM, SPF, and the like.
It also gets better over time as your IP gains a better reputation.

I run my email out of my closet. Postfix/Dovecot, using Mutt as my client.

It’s been a long time since I was in school, but I was constantly accused of cheating by various software programs and teachers, when I did all the work myself. I don’t know how to tell if students are actually using AI or not, but the false-positives of these detection systems are no joke.
I think they are right to stress over them.

They totally can. They just don’t really care, because they are mostly funded by advertisers.

Most of it worked fine. I only ran into trouble once I started trying to run it on Raspberry Pi’s (which they have since started supporting).
But my laptops and desktop-servers didn’t have any driver issues that I remember.

It’s just a normal sticker, so it would work on pretty much anything. I think of it more as a way to donate to a group that I like, as well as good advertising for them.

I’m pretty annoyed at how ollama has gone deep in the paint as basically being a tool for accessing cloud models.
Can you expound a little more on what you mean by this?
I like ollama, but I only really use it to load models and then hit the API. My current issue with them is that they don’t seem to support non-text base interaction very well.

I’m not going to say that I don’t have a server-collection problem, but that problem did put me on a good career path, so at least I have that going for me.

on Db admin, cloud admin, printers, more for $110k. in c/programmer_humor@programming.dev · 19 Aug 2026
As a system administrator, I’ve done all of these to some extent. But at that pay range, it better be part-time.
The same amount of money in fewer hands creates a choke-point that they can squeeze later.
