Now all you need is a built-in camera to prove Orwell was right... only off by a few decades, really.

Monitors aren’t being pumped full of this stuff

I hope this is just marketing then...

Not an actual lock-in as they (still) provide tools to cross-compile and the source is (still) available, more like a vendor push-out if you insist.

I can imagine that theirs is safer and more suited for targeted devices. Linux is extremely generalistic and has a ton of cruft.

For targeted devices so is Gentoo. Their edge is having access to proprietary drivers.

But I have never looked at their code or tried to port a Linux app to Android. The #Krita devs might have some insight here.

If it's written in portable C you can use the Android NDK/SDK to cross-compile it for the 4 archs they support. I do it at work.

glibc is key here, it's what most linux distros use. One of Google's vendor-lock moves was to start using their own libc implementation, making it incompatible with everything else.

The only thing linux about android is the kernel, i wouldn't call that a linux distro and it's not even compatible with any others.

XFCE for the aforementioned reasons and not depending on gnome. Xmonad otherwise.

May well be very interesting but is marked as an english post...

No. Maybe. Why not?

There’s not an intuitive way to find new content on there.

Just follow hashtags.

 

Exactly eighteen years ago today, on October 30 2006, we shipped curl 7.16.0 that among a whole slew of new features and set of bugfixes bumped the libcurl SONAME number from 3 to 4.

 

Finally, the singularity has happened.

 

Twitter will remove nonconsensual nude images within hours as long as that media is reported for having violated someone’s copyright. If the same content is reported just as nonconsensual intimate media, Twitter will not remove it within weeks, and might never remove it at all, according to a pre-print study from researchers at the University of Michigan.

I have a 2nd-gen chromecast, it's factory reset. If i plug it in all it tells me is to install the app to start configuring.

I don't have a google account not do i want to install/use google-related stuff on my phone.

My home router doesn't register any new device, which makes sense since the cast doesn't know the SSID/pass of the WiFi.

Does it try to ping some service/port? Multicast perhaps? Where would it get an IP from without authenticating?

My (wired) PC runs gentoo.

How can i get it to work in these conditions?

When Google, along with a consortium of other companies, announced the open-source operating system we call Android way back in 2007, the world was paying attention. The iPhone had launched the same year, and the entire mobile space was wary of the rush of excitement around the admittedly revolutionary device. AOSP (Android Open Source Project) was born, and within a few years Android swallowed up market share with phones of all shapes and sizes from manufacturers all over the globe. Android eventually found its way into TVs, fridges, washing machines, cars, and the in-flight entertainment system of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner.

 

a digital wallet is a repository for personal data and documents. Right now, there are hundreds of different wallets, but no standard.

 

At least a dozen organizations with domain names at domain registrar Squarespace saw their websites hijacked last week. Squarespace bought all assets of Google Domains a year ago, but many customers still haven’t set up their new accounts. Experts say malicious hackers learned they could commandeer any migrated Squarespace accounts that hadn’t yet been registered, merely by supplying an email address tied to an existing domain.
