  • Proton launches new "Meet" privacy-focused conferencing platform

  • They’ve just rebranded La Suite Meet anyway,

    I was basing it off the top comment here which said "They’ve just rebranded La Suite Meet" (which isn't E2E) but it looks like that person might have just been talking out their ass anyway.

  • GIMP alternative for Linux, but proprietary.

  • Honestly? I would probably pay for a GIMP clone that has a photoshop-like UI and can be installed via flatpak. $70 is a little high but if it was $20 and received regular updates?

  • It seems to be implying that SoCs will soon become so fast and efficient that they will always outperform custom builds in every category including price.

    There's an argument to be made there (not saying I agree).

  • "Dragon's Egg" is a great little book written by a physicist/aerospace engineer and it shows.

  • Komga maybe? It's made for comics/manga but they can be grouped.

  • Ebook host that tracks your reading in its own Web UI? Does it exist?

    跳过

  • Booklore was discovered to be vibe-coded and riddled with security issues. The dev shut down the project when discovered. Best avoided for now.

  • KOReader is not "fake epaper", it's an app designed to be used on ereaders which means it's UI is high contrast. FWIW I agree it's not ideal for an OLED phone screen, but it's definitely not fake epaper (more like the opposite) and makes me think you might be accidentally using something else?

    (Also KOReader is not for "certain" devices, it's FOSS and installs on basically any ereader, including Kindle, Kobo and anything running android like Boox).

    What CWA does is it integrates a KOreader sync server (can also be ran independently). In future updates CWA's web reader will sync with this progress, but for now it only shows up in the UI like this:

    THAT ALL SAID, if you are only using the WebUI and don't want to wait for CWA to update their web reader, Komga is a simple app (originally designed for Manga but will work fine with books) that has a web reader that will also remember your progress (and fwiw there is a KOReader plugin in case you want to sync that progress with an epaper device in the future).

  • Linux kernel maintainer says Al has suddenly become useful for devs: 'We can't ignore this stuff. It's coming up, and it's getting better"

  • Honestly kinda what I was suspecting as well. Every time I see an "AI is advancing rapidly" take without actual examples of what it can do I wonder how much of it is a degree of psychosis.

  • It was the UI he didn't like so it's not going to be much different.

  • Not that I don't believe you but do you have a source for any of that? Specifically about the development timeline of the "cognitive harness"?

  • PC Gamer is just reporting on the original story from the Register, and the quote is real from the maintainer of the stable branch.

  • Yunohost seems the community pick these days. I also played around with CasaOS and found it very user friendly. Though development on that one seems to have stalled.

  • what's your recommended TV OS?

  • Bazzite has been a fantastic living room gaming PC for me. Even when I have to switch to desktop mode I can still control the mouse and type using the on screen keyboard. I can count on one hand the times I've used a mouse and keyboard in the past year and most of those times it was just because it was more convenient for what I was doing.

    That said I'm still excited about Plasma Bigscreen for an always on media watching device that allows me to unplug my TV from the network.

  • A rogue AI led to a serious security incident at Meta

  • It's also a pretty big exaggeration of what actually happened which is that it generated and posted some technically inaccurate information.

  • what's your recommended TV OS?

    跳过

  • Thanks for pointing out that Plasma Bigscreen is getting an official release! I tried the AndroidTV for Raspi but encountered too many bugs, specifically CEC isn't yet working.

    Sad to say but my current recommended TV OS is... Tizen. I have TizenTube for YouTube and Plex/Jellyfin apps for everything else.
