Indirectly is doing a lot of work there. The US is an extremely disenfranchised place, and the choices are both pro-capital and will never actually represent the people in any meaningful sense. This liberal individualism framing only serves

Hopefully riseup can pick up some of the slack here, but more decentralized services are needed.

Equating the two seems pretty "radically centrist". Also I'm not so sure that's accurate given that the far right continues to gain legal political power in the EU (and the US for that matter).

I mean, if they relinquish their ownership of the plane and joined in with some sort of council that determined how to manage such assets I bet everyone claiming to be an anarchist would be fine with it. Anarchy as a political ideology does

Maybe for big companies that irresponsibly vendor-locked themselves, but I work at a SMB (~60 employees) and we switched to Forgejo in a couple days

We are a franchisor the owns 2 concepts, both of which are thrift stores aimed at different demographics. We write all of our software in-house and its actually a surprisingly "fun" context. The business had pretty questionable (r

Same here! The slight difference being I'll just do something else for money and code purely for fun if hand written code stops being economically viable. I'll highly confident that won't happen though.

Happier everyday to completely avoid this cognitohazard. I'm lucky to be on a team with a no-LLM policy too! Despite that, some other parts of the business are trying their hands at playing slop slots...

Very happy to work somewhere where sanity has triumphed over AI madness...

In my experience moving from GH to Forgejo was trivial, largely because the actions are mostly compatible and importing the repos can be automated. The amount of time it took was definitely less than the 5-8 hours of downtime that GHA had y

Oh yeah, you wont catch me defending the US government one bit. What I'm saying is a group of people in a community taking up arms to defend themselves is not inherently the same as a drug cartel.

Im shocked this is still going on... We moved our repos at work to a self-hosted Forgejo 2 months ago because the regular outages were getting ridiculous, looks like a pretty good call now. Honestly I dont think I've seen a tool I used

Not sure its fair to equate a gang fueled by drug smuggling to a self-defense militia.

> For seconds, this proves that Codeberg may in the future ban any project. Thats the cost of hosting your code on a platform you dont control. Its nothing new either ideologically or practically, large forges have been banning repos for

How is that inherently a strawman? Thats just talking about a group of people with a vague, and intentionally vague given the quotations, shared support for a tool.

Hasnt this already been thoroughly discussed? Your ability to do X degrades as you offload it more frequently, eventually to the point that you can no longer even vet the quality of the output. I think the parent is saying now that that is

It doesn't require an app, hell if you even want a modem in it you need to pay extra. Edit: it only needs an app for updates, which isn't notably different than taking you older pre-modem cars into the dealer for updates. Also I c

Strange to put Framework in this category... They seem reasonably successful and even the company I work at is switching to them.

I mean productivity gains don't usually go towards making the workers life any better. Also I'm still less than convinced there are any net productivity gains from AI anyway.

Perhaps, but in terms of the average Japanese persons day to day experience it doesn't seem so bad. They outrank us in almost all QoL measures
