Fediverse@lemmy.world•How should Lemmy sort posts so small communities can compete?English
0·6 days agoThat would cause me to miss many interesting threads that were created at a time when I happened not to be looking at Lemmy.
“New comments” it is for me, that causes threads to get bumped to the top as long as other people still find them interesting.

Privacy@programming.dev•Citizen Protest Halts Chat Control; Breyer Celebrates Major Victory for Digital Privacy
1·15 days agoYour list has nothing to do with members of the European Parliament (whose opinions on this or anything else are almost certainly not uniform in any country). The now-cancelled vote was going to be in the Council, where national governments (executive branches) are represented, not MEPs.
Of course one should still vote for good MEPs in 2029, whichever country one is in, so that point stands, but let’s not confuse people about what is going on.

Privacy@lemmy.world•One-man spam campaign ravages EU ‘chat control’ billEnglish
11·16 days agoto be clear, I obviously think the campaign against chat control is a very good and very necessary thing; I shared the article because I found the campaign methods interesting and also wanted to draw more attention to what’s going on, not because I agree with all of its framing (although I understood the “spam” in the headline to be tongue-in-cheek, maybe not everyone did though?).

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Simple and light alternatives to Notepad, Paint and Calculator (Win11 lol)
3·19 days agoNotepad: Notepad++ or Visual Studio Code. Or if you like terminal windows: https://github.com/microsoft/edit
Paint: https://www.pinta-project.com/ seems to have Windows builds.
Calculator: https://qalculate.github.io/ is the best I know of.

Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Looking for photo geotagging software that does NOT destroy EXIF data
0·22 days agoDo you only want to geotag, without editing the files any further? If yes, you can do this on the command line with exiftool or exiv2.
If you are also going to edit your photos, then AFAICT darktable preserves all EXIF data, though I am not familiar specifically with the HDR data you refer to. It allows geotagging by dragging on a map.

Linux@lemmy.ml•what debian compatible IRC client should I use now that hexchat is dead?

Linux@lemmy.ml•Under the hood (not de's or gui) what REALLY separates linux from windows?
0·2 months agoThey come from completely different heritages.
GNU/Linux is a reimplementation of Unix, an operating system that was originally designed mainly for universities, but also mainframes.
Windows is descended from DOS, an operating system intended for home computers.
Nowadays Windows is the only widely used non-Unix-like OS; GNU/Linux, Android, macOS and iOS are all Unix-like.
If Windows became FOSS, I at least would likely switch to it. It’s really the FOSS philosophy more than anything else that makes me want to use GNU/Linux.

Firefox@lemmy.ml•What is the keyboard shortcut to "go to previous displayed tab" ?
0·4 months agoThere’s an option in the settings to make Ctrl+Tab cycle by last used tabs instead of the order they appear in in the tab bar. I have that turned off, so can’t tell you 100% whether it does what you want…
Otherwise of course if you still know the name of the tab, just type whatever you can remember into the address bar, that is how I find tabs usually.









It’s one of the best FOSS games I know. That is not a very high bar, admittedly; I suggest trying I out.
