You live in a climate that’s not supposed to be that warm (not as long and as often as it is nowadays anyway), and is supposed to be rainy, windy and cold. Rather than hoping the climate will change I would recommend you look into moving somewhere south where the climate is naturally warmer.

The current heat waves are a sign of climate change, and it’s nothing to be celebrated even if you love the heat, somehow.

I get that but it still sounds awesome 😉 Of course Gitea federating with other Gitea (or Forgejo) instances would be awesome and make it a right candidate to host another fediverse project.

We also hope to migrate development to Gitea once federation is implemented.

That is awesome to hear! Lemmy federating with the code forge it’s hosted on sounds awesome!

Uh reading your third link, no they are not reluctant to discuss it. That whole discussion sadly was about how the original “proposal” was framed, and I have to agree with that person that it wasn’t “proposed” but more stated as a demand.

Great news! However as long as Mozilla shows no interest whatsoever in developing a mobile UI, I don’t have much hope honestly. The mobile-firefox-config we develop at postmarketOS works fine, but it’ll never be as great as an actual mobile UI.

How’s this related to the original game? As in licensing issues?

Idk about 2006scape, but I can tell about 2009scape.org. The server is fully FOSS and AGPL-3.0 licensed. No code from the original game is present, it’s all rebuild.

The client is different and a bit more difficult, there is a project that’s decompiling and deobfuscating the original client from around that time. It’s not FOSS because it can’t be, it’s not their code to relicense, they don’t own it. However it existing makes it possible for an alternative fully FOSS client to be created, as the internal workings of the original client is then known and documentation can be written about it. That way the new client developers can develop the new client without having to look at the original code, they just have to look at the documentation written based on that original code.

An alternative client like that hasn’t been developer so far though sadly, I believe the community is more focused currently on the server-side and deobfuscating the original client.

Huh, so this is like 2009scape.org but for 2006? Interesting, I wonder which project is further along. I personally prefer the 2009 era at least so I don’t think I’ll play this.

Does that include all the pictures on there?

It can’t. 60 million odd articles with pictures only taking 20GB? I doubt it. Just the text taking up so few space that I can believe.

I believe just as viable as a Raspberry Pi, but not much more.

That… Is interesting 🤔 Linux can be fun but it should foremost just be a way to run your apps, just “be an OS”, nothing more. Choose some well-supported enterprise distro like Fedora or Ubuntu or whatever and just do what you do on a computer, minus customizing it.

I know that’s not how addiction works, but I’m sure there is some way for you to run Linux without having addiction problems. Now you’re resorting to an OS that spies on you and fills you with ads, is that really what you want?

Also I’ll be honest I have no idea what mastodon is.

Mastodon is to Twitter what Lemmy is to Reddit: a decentralized alternative built on the ActivityPub protocol for the fediverse.

But tons of libraries used out there are not in those runtimes, and this scenario still applies to them.

Better to just not use Windows at all at that point tbh. Go join us on the light side and use some Linux distro!

Btw we have a community on Lemmy as well! https://lemmy.ml/c/postmarketos

I’m sure it’s nice, but it shouldn’t be forced upon me by some random software project. I don’t use Nix, I don’t have a need for Nix. But if I want to install this project, for some reason I suddenly need to edit my root system to install some package manager I’m never using.

I wish they focused more on passthrough, windows projected in real life (so AR) rather than the black space you now have in the background.

Also, it for some reason uses Nix as it’s build/install system. I’ve read through their issues talking about it and I get their reasoning, but there is no way I’m installing this in my system if I have to use Nix and install it as root…

They should upstream their forked stuff and make it compilable with system dependencies 🤔

I see benefit in both tbh. Connected as a fancy monitor to your more powerful PC at home, a thing on it’s own on the road. Although I suppose I rather see it use my phone as the rendering/computing device and just be another screen for that.

Note it’s Mastodon, not Mastadon.

Can give you some examples? That is definitely not my experience, the few subreddits I visit often only have memes every once and while and they often get removed quickly by the mods redirecting them to dedicated meme subreddits.

Tbh the various DE’s should work just fine out of the box without additional distro work done outside of packaging. That’s the case on Arch Linux, Gentoo Linux and Alpine Linux at least, not sure why it would be different on distros like Ubuntu or Fedora.
