@OdyX nice, finally in central europe again.

@maximemelian bleihalting ist leider besser

@andrew_shadura @jon missed opportunity to mention gnu social

Really glad and proud that there's folks out there fighting the planned obsolescence. Just saw that my phone will receive an update to Lineage OS 21. When I first got it it ran Pie (9.0). This states the obvious imo: Companies should support devices at least this long, thus reducing e-waste, saving resources and ensuring security. I'm really glad other FOSS developers put in the effort to make this happen. I will use this phone until it breaks down. Sad that the broad mass doesn't feel like that

@grillchen @sonny @pid_eins I wouldn't mind it at all if it was *just* an init system. But taking over timesync, network, cronjobs, file management, dns resolving is too much imo. What's wrong with using simple ntp ? I use OpenRC with Debian because a) I want a choice and b) not having my whole system depend on a program that should only manage services. And hard dependencies on systemd seems like "my way is the only way" kinda solution.

@grillchen just 20 more years..

@wouter @mirabilos iirc there was discussion on it but no consensus was reached. I think the main issue was the time alignment between countries like Finland and Spain for instance. Fwiw, I'm all for banning it, there's no benefit except sleep loss :(

@homer77 16 Jahre Merkel

I was surprised to learn that the #ALX train is switching carriages in Regensburg these days apparently and is pulled by an electric locomotive at least this part of the Prague-Munich rail track.

The rest is still run with diesel :(

@kellogh a class action lawsuit has been filed: https://sfconservancy.org/news/2022/nov/04/class-action-lawsuit-filing-copilot/
And reading this FSF article the key here seems to be fair use: https://www.fsf.org/licensing/copilot/if-software-is-my-copilot-who-programmed-my-software IANAL either, maybe @neil can shed some light ? To me this looks clear violation of the GPL

@paco 2/2 I grew up thinking the silicon valley was a pinnacle of innovation, but it's all a scam. I haven't seen any real innovation the last ten years, it just seems a race into a cyperpunk dystopia. Few indie/free software oriented companies like Purism or Fairphone being the exception.

@paco GH copilot is already breaking the GPL by using GPL'd code in its sources which is then fed to the user, but never contributes those chamges upstream. Iirc the SCFS is considering a lawsuit because of that. We need no new licenses, we need to limit the extent tech companies can grow to and disband/nationalize them otherwise. While at it, limit deep learning / "ai" for useful purposes such as DeepL or breast cancer detection. 1/2

@grillchen that's just straightup bad Latex code

@decathorpe yeah, really annoying

@decathorpe :D exactly my kind of humor. I do have my ANC in-ear headphones with me so it's not all bad but I wish people would just keep quiet in trains. It seems to work in TGVs, maybe this is just a German issue.

tmw you just want to chill in an ICE train and there's multiple people making a phone call on loudspeaker

compiling kicad 8.0.0 😊

@Fiolakais I am in this picture and don't like it

On the agenda later today:

- test the wayland vnc client package I packaged yesterday
- study
- hang out in the hackspace
