Assuming you meant drm free books

Not every book on kobo is drm free from what I remember so keep an eye on that

It's like how the US can block mergers between companies that aren't based in the US. Companies want to operate in these markets. If a major regulator says no, they have two options. Remove themselves from the market the regulator that denies them regulates or spin off into multiple companies if that's actually possible operationally for the multiple companies to exist. Somalia regulators can block an acquisition in their country but that wouldn't change much for the company as Somalia has a small market and little international influencer. If China or the US or the EU say no, a company that wants to operate internationally will lose a huge market and will now have a way more difficult time doing business from other companies that operate multinationally

The best thing about their centos strategy changes was the creation of Alma Linux

I do not use it as my default text editor but I use it practically every working day. Plenty of times it's the only thing I have available to me. Pretty often vi is all I have to work with

It is impressive how I almost always hear about Claude stuff for paid programming services and never copilot. Normal search engine replacement stuff, I'll hear almost exclusively about people using ChatGPT and Gemini. Then people self hosting, I'll hear all the free stuff like Deepseek, Kimi, Qwen, ...

People just talk trash about copilot. I swear even Proton Lumo gets less heat and when people want upgrades, they're all urging Proton to add the latest Deepseek, Qwen, Kimi, etc models to their algorithm. Microsoft has got to have one of the most hostile to themselves customer base to be rivaled only by companies like Oracle

Your media sources aren't really indictive of monoculture. More the opposite and that's the problem for marketers. It's hard as shit to reach people because everyone can form their own niche media community. If people still treated IGN and like award shows as their mainstream trustworthy source, we'd still be in the pre-youtube monoculture

2020 plain clothes federal agents kidnapping people to makeshift prisons and the none of that really being addressed should have been an ey opening for people to view their greatest threat being the government they live under. Same with the Snowden leaks and rather than that becoming illegal, much of of progressively becoming legal going forward. Maybe some even made retroactively legal

It was mostly sourced from her 2020 campaign that were fodder for commercials. Then there were stuff like her going off on Tulsi Gabbard about not being a democratic party team player that made her look too centrist and establishment for people further left. Another common fodder for commercials are stuff like how the democratic party only cares about black guys with stuff like that 10 point plan for black men becoming wealthy. That stuff would be open to everyone because it's just marketing really, but the lack of marketing to non-black people is fodder for marketing the democratic party as not caring for any other minority group along with white people. I don't remember that commercial people hated that was shaming men to vote Harris in some way. That was good fodder for conservatives to paint the democratic party as anti-men

I and I imagine barely anyone ever heard of Codeberg until the past year like me when I made an account and the website was loading at a snails pace. Github, Gitlab, and Bitbucket are way more established.

Every employer I've worked for either uses Github, Gitlab, or Bitbucket in that order of commonality. Then any that self hosts uses Gitlab either free or Ultimate. I imagine anyone writing pipelines would like to stick with what they're comfortable with. I imagine migrating gitlab ci to foregejo actions can be annoying especially on huge projects unless you're already using something like Tekton to build out your own CI pipelines. How I see my project managers use Gitlab Ultimate features to link together issues, milestones, commits, merge requests, branches, epics, create filters for the issues boards, etc - I'm impressed.

A lot of co-mingling between different groups within the organization to create some levels of siloed operations. There's stuff like sharing user databases between Gitlab and other products that aren't gitlab. API stuff where you make a gitlab account and it propogates to other services and that even includes stuff like group management in gitlab and other services non-gitlab. A bunch of stuff that I barely have to work to achieve like getting sonarqube or other services to easily integrate into Gitlab pipelines and create conditional actions in them and the merge requests comments to notify developers of findings. I have no doubt used very little that's out there that offers easy integration into Gitlab and Github workflows.

Our pipeline inserts milestone links into our changelogs. We use the Gitlab project wikis and release pages. We use the gitlab package and container registries. Self hosting runners is super easy. There are a lot of 3rd party services that host github and gitlab runners that are really click and they're ready to go. I don't have enough experience with Codeberg yet but Gitlabs CI file text editor and the browser embedded VS Code I find very useful.

On Gitlab, these are very useful. I'd want something similar on codeberg rather than dealing with all that myself along with other key/token management

For the most part, I would expect people to go where they're most familiar and at work they'll be most familiar with Github and Gitlab and if you want your code to be seen, you'll go where the bulk of developers are

I test out Gamehub and GameNative on the regular and it's OK right now. Like it's way worse than Proton on Linux in 2018 but I like to think if it was Valve doing the integration, it'd be 2018 Proton great. Also Android Linux peculiarities rather than regular GNU/Linux/other Linux. This would probably so much better already if we had normal linux phones rather than Android linux. I'm expecting the Steam Frame to show us amazing stuff. And someday buying some used X Elite laptop to test will show off way better compatibility than an Android phone even if the Android phone has a better GPU/CPU by that point

Nice. Hoping the Steam Machine follows soon after. Time for PC to finally be my local multiplayer living room machine

Sure but that applies to every cloud storage service and I've migrated before and have been using Amazon photos for RAW storage for years. It's saved me a good amount of money compared to any other service. Me using it all these years has been worth it regardless of it possibly becoming a terrible service in the future
