Faugus is gaining popularity, but they recently switched from Qt to GTK, so personally I'm now using Vermouth

Montagslaberfaden
Ich bin ein Mann fortgeschrittenen Alters. Bin eben das erste mal in wahrscheinlich Jahrzehnten von einem Alptraum aufgewacht. Hab 3 Stunden gepennt, von wieder einschlafen keine Spur. Keine Ahnung wie ich die Arbeit später überstehen soll. Arbeite zum Glück ausm Home Office. Wünsche allen einen besseren Start in die Woche.

Hab aus irgendwelchen gründen in einem Hochhaus im 999 Stockwerck gewohnt und war dort mit Freunden (die ich nie in meinem Leben gesehen habe). Alle sind einem nach dem anderen verschwunden bis ich alleine übrig war. Dann hab ich kapiert das mich was jagt. Plötzlich konnte ich zaubern und hab mich ins wohnzimmer teletransportiert. Dann war ich wach. Mehr weiss ich nicht mehr. Ich hatte die ganze Zeit ein Gefühl von Beklommenheit dass immer stärker wurde.

"I don't think there is any European country that would arrest Netanyahu,"
Anyone not complying with the ICC arrest warrant not only deletigimitizes the ICC, but also makes themselves complicit in a genocide. This is literally criminal.
Why should I follow any laws anymore if my leadership takes a massive dump on the most important ones?

I was a week away from buying a Pixel Pro 10 for GrapheneOS
That would only make me install Graphene even harder if I wasn't already writing from a phone with it

Yes, you can store data on a bird — enthusiast converts PNG to bird-shaped waveform, teaches young starling to recall file at up to 2MB/s
In before EU genocides all starlings because you can't put backdoors in them to scan for CSAM.

PlayStation boss says single-player games won’t come to PC going forward | VGC
I can almost guarantee you that dude has a board or shareholders or whatever, breathing down his neck, and his yearly bonus is depending on the number of units sold. So he will canibalize the whole system with a complete disregard for the long term effects, so long as the magic number goes up in the short term and he can cash in his bonus.

Google has been blocking many tools/IP ranges that try to synchronize with YouTube
I've seen the effects on invidious these past days. 8 in 10 instances have been broken. Google is putting some serious work into shutting alternate frontends down. Shows you how much of a dent they're putting in the bottom line.

F-Droid and Google's Developer Registration Decree
Jesus that post is bleak. It's basically "Please write your political representative to do something or we're forced to close up shop". Since all our political representatives are walking around with massive hard-ons at the idea of surveilling us, it's basically a poorly veiled good bye note.

MAGA mom was taken by ICE, but her husband refuses to stop flying Trump flag: ‘We understand what he’s doing’
I honestly think their marriage was in shambles and he's glad he doesn't have to deal with it. That's the only way this makes sense.

Jesus fuck that's scary. I thought we europeans would need to fend of Russia in the near future. Now it might be the USA as well.

Amazon to replace 600,000 US workers by 2033 with robots
In theory this is awesome. Humans aren't built for menial tasks. All repetitive monotonous tasks should be automated. However, this doesn't fit our current economic system. Obviously all automation needs to be taxed, so that we don't have to live this paradox where each technological advancement is a risk to our livelihood.

What is a game you can’t understand why its so popular ?
Most souls likes. The marketing on those games is pure genius. No budget for an actual story? No problem! Let's hide some nebulous lore in item descriptions so youtubers can sell their head cannon as "the story". Oh there's only enough money for 8 hours of gameplay? I have a solution! Let's remove the save system everyone got used to these past 20 years so the player has to constantly redo our content just to get to the boss he's trying to beat. We'll sell that unecessary tedium as "difficulty". And people are gobbling that stupid mechanic up because it allows them to flaunt their e-peen, although it just shows they have more time time than skills.

They responded to it when it first came up 4 months ago. I'll paste my appropriate comment from that time.
The f-droid team spoke to that in a recent post. The post basically said that if that change isn't stopped on a government level there's no way for them to continue working. They didn't mention roms.

Same with Gnome wanting to be pronounced "Gah-nome", or Latex "Latech". Just spell stuff the way you want it to be pronounced, or accept that people pronounce it another way

Can you explain why you would think Steam is so bad? I would argue they're pretty fair, especially with the option to buy steam cards for cash to not disclose your personal data. Does the client do some unsavory shit?

Microsoft’s controversial Recall scraper is finally entering public preview

The malicious thing about recall is, it doesn't matter how much you protect yourself, every one you interact with has to protect themselves too, or your private chats are gonna land there anyway
