Is that a job posting about AI written by ChatGPT?
Ce să vă zic, mă, bine ați venit? bine ați venit, rău ați nimerit. La locu’ ăsta îi zice șerpărie, de la șerpii care umblă pe-aicea. Dracu’ știe cum au ajuns…

@Ilandar you’re right, I didn’t think about this. However I might add that there are still programs that do not function well even under Wine. For example, the latest version of Office is always problematic to set up.
@Ilandar this is a good solution . Another would be to just not jump ship head first, but rather replace everything wth FOSS alternatives instead if they’re not available on Linux (e.g.: replace MS Office with LibreOffice, Photoshop with GIMP or something else, etc.) and use them for a while. Most of the programs should also be available for Windows, and if not you could also use WSL to run them.
Once you get used to these programs, the actual Linux transition should be easier.
Didn’t they do that before with the Windows 10 timeline, which they later axed it off?
@funn Online content is, sadly, more vulnerable than we think. All it takes is one server to go down, and the entire website/thing goes bust.
search results will become secondary as they push their service
Oh, so they’re gonna emphasize less on search results and more onto their half-arsed services that they’re axing from time to time? This is so Google of them.

@perishthethought thank you!
@perishthethought I see. So the feeds from the OPML file are imported into the reader’s own database, right?
@GadgeteerZA Oh, I see. Thanks for the extra info! 😁
@GadgeteerZA it’s not really that new, it’s been around for as long as Mastodon got the first boost back in Autumn 2022 (at least that’s when I first heard about it, something like that). There’s plenty of other microblogging servers out there, as microblogging is overwhelmingly served via AP and not only. There’s even a Nextcloud app for that.
Check out the list below and sort by Social network (micro):

@tardigrada yea, I’m going closer and closer to the point these MFs won’t leave my browser
@jeena cool. I think I will look into it. Thanks! 😁
@jeena it doesn’t connect to any server even when you’re online?
@jeena I only use DeepL to translate and that’s it. I also started taking notes in .md files, so that could make for a good use case in the future if there was an AI that I could use without connecting to the internet (e.g. to only let me tell stuff based on the files I got). Otherwise I am pretty reticent on AI. Perhaps I watched too many fiction movies, but I am afraid it will become too sentient and somehow escape the human oversight, thus creating havoc in our lives.
@hedge Wow, this is big. Fedi needs more macroblogging options to compensate for the domination of Mastodon and other microblogging platforms. And also it being another corporate actor like Meta, but smaller, will create the incentive for Meta to play more fairly in the long run and not EEE the Fediverse with Threads, just like it did with XMPP by integrating it under Facebook almost a decade ago. This is exactly what we need to become and stay mainstream.
@TheMonkeyLord in China you mean? Well, if CCP would find a way to control it, then yes.
@Stillhart yea, you can, but that means trusting the third party providing the apk. Besides that, China also has a big power over the internet. They could outright block the apps from working altogether only by cutting the connection. Especially with Threads and WhatsApp where you cannot choose any proxy within the app.
In fact, I think they already did it.
@ElCanut geee, I wonder how did they make Microsoft Access.
I think this means allowing the listing of third party app stores inside the Google Play Store - so you could search for F-Droid in Google Play for example instead of downloading and installing the
.apk
manually.
