Well

  • Trans rights are human rights. They are not something you can take away because people "stop adhering to the social contract", the same way we can't take access to food and healthcare away from prisoners just because they did a crime (yes, in real-life they often get taken away, but you get the point).

    Insisting on deadnaming someone also harms the whole transgender community, by pushing the point that those rights are conditional.

  • Well

  • If this post doesn't get deleted, I'm gone. This just shows again that lemmy.world is filled with transphobes and that the mods endorse them. I will look for an instance that doesn't federate with them.

  • I don't understand. You will still need to do administrative tasks once in a while so it isn't really unnecessary, and if root can't be logged in, that will mean you will have to use sudo instead, which could be an attack vector just as su.

  • I fail to see what makes games any different from other software. The piece of software can be easily studied and tinkered with, users have the power to control what exactly runs on their machine, and the software can organically be improved by people making their changes in their own derivations of that software that they make available for the whole world to use, study, reproduce, and modify.

    Furthermore, if the developer dies, the game being FOSS will guarantee that it will live on and continue to benefit future generations.

  • IMO all software would be better if FOSS, regardless of the virtues of the developers. That's why I would love if the games that I love to play were to be FOSS as that would make them even better in my eyes.

  • I guess it's time to introduce them to a family computer, which, while heavily restricted in what websites are allowed, allows accessing wikipedia?

  • Permanently Deleted

  • Between IRC and the picture representing the idea of self-hosting, there's the XMPP logo, which like IRC, is an instant messaging protocol (but with more features than IRC).

  • Permanently Deleted

  • The FSF-approved distributions that are shown are: Trisquel, Parabola and GNU Guix (this one is actually quite neat, it's based on NixOS with its own ideas like the importance of being able to bootstrap an entire system from a minimal binary seed)

    The browser with logo shown is GNU IceCat, with binary blobs removed and with some extra security and privacy features (among them an addon that prevents the browser from running proprietary javascript)

    lynx is a simple TUI web browser and w3m also is a similar browser but running in GNU Emacs

    The last three are all the GNU Emacs logo.

  • I've been wondering why not window.chrome == true or Boolean(window.chrome), but it turns out that the former doesn't work and that == has essentially no use unless you remember some completely arbitrary rules, and that JS developers would complain that the latter is too long given the fact that I've seen javascript code using !0 for true and !1 for false, instead of just true and false because they can save 2 to 3 characters that way.

    Em relação às alterações propostas às scenes

    cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/22796680

    De acordo com o Ben Robbins (autor de Microscope), as scenes em Microscope sofrem de alguns problemas. Ele recentemente também propôs algumas mudanças às regras para aliviar esses problemas (https://arsludi.lamemage.com/index.php/3449/a-microscope-for-the-people/).

    Alguém aqui já tentou jogar com essas novas regras? Com que impressão ficaram? Também fizeram alguma mudança às scenes ditadas (o post no blogue parece só estar a falar de scenes atuadas)?

    Acho que isto também é uma boa oportunidade para darem a vossa opinião acerca do estado atual das scenes em Microscope

    Regarding the proposed amendments to scenes

    cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/22796007

    Ben Robbins (the creator of Microscope RPG) has laid out a few problems they see in the current state of scenes and recently some ideas to tackle those perceived problems (https://arsludi.lamemage.com/index.php/3449/a-microscope-for-the-people/).

    Has anyone tried these yet? How did these changes affect gameplay? Did you like the effect of those changes? And did you make any changes to dictated scenes (I'm asking this because the blog post seems to be mostly focused on acted scenes)?

    This is also an opportunity to give your thoughts on the current state of scenes and what could be changed.

    (I hope discussion about a specific game is allowed in this community)

    How to use Jetbrains Compose with a single target?

    cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/21390036

    I finished reading the Kotlin documentation (§Concepts) and want to do something now. I was thinking about making a desktop app with a GUI. For that people seem to recommend Jetbrains Compose.

    It seems however that the guides (https://www.jetbrains.com/help/kotlin-multiplatform-dev/compose-multiplatform-create-first-app.html) to set up such a project assume I have more than one target. I however don't and thus don't need to divide my project into common code, ios code, wasm code, etc. I only need to compile my project for the JVM, since I'm only intending to support Linux and BSD. I don't have much experience with the Java/Kotlin-centric build systems and I would like to avoid investing

    Flashing the Kindle Paperwhite with a custom ROM

    This is a of a post made during a time where outgoing federation for lemmy.ml was broken. I hope lemmy.ml readers will forgive me for shoving my filthy little words under the shining gaze of their precious and observant eyes for a second time.


    I have a Kindle Paperwhite (7th generation). (Stallman weeps) It appears people generally customize their kindle beyond Amazon's original design by jailbreaking it. But I was wondering if I could replace the entire system on the kindle by a new one, for even more hacking fun.

    It appears Kindle Paperwhites run on ARM processors, so there should be plenty of compatible software. However, it appears flashing the ROM of kindle only appears in the context of something called the Kindle Fire. Why is that? Is there any reason ROM flashing for the paperwhite kindles isn't common? The only reasons I could think of is that disassembling and reassembling the kindle paperwhite is kinda annoying (especially with the glue holding the case together)

    How to write unit tests for software that reads files, has a GUI or uses the internet?

    Most introductions to unit testing give very simple examples of functions that simply receive some arguments and produce a result. However a lot of software has to read input from external sources, such as from the internet, from the file system, or from the user during its execution. How does one write tests for such software?

    For simple software that only reads a few files from the file system, I imagine can be tested by writing some files for the test to give to the tested program, but what if it becomes more complex? Or what if you are trying to test a web scrapper for a website, would the tests run a web server and simulate the targetted website? Or for the GUI, how would one test that the user can see what they are supposed to see, when they click a certain way at a certain time?

    Maybe the parts that read the data shouldn't be tested and only the functions that code relies on should be tested? I don't know.

    Elections for the supreme people's assembly in the DPRK: two questions

    cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/410209

    I have two questions regarding the election of the deputies to the supreme people's assembly in the DPRK.


    In the English translation of the nation's constitution I'm using (article 34.) it says:

    The Supreme People's Assembly is composed of deputies elected on the basis of universal, equal and direct suffrage by secret ballot.

    And in the translation of the law document Deputy Elections for People's Assemblies at Each Level Law of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (2010) (article 5.) it says:

    Deputy elections for People's Assemblies at each level shall be done by the method of secret ballot. Constituents shall be guaranteed the freedom of voting for or against. No one may require the publication of the fact of having voted for or against a c

    What meals do you know which aren't too time consuming to prepare (or if they are last for a very long time), are cheap and whose ingredients are easy to acquire?

    Bonus if it isn't just mainly carbon-hydrates and if the ingredients don't need to be used immediately (unless the meal itself when done can last for many days).

    I'm getting tired of tuna masala spaghetti.
