natives apps in principle could be faster and use more of your hardware —in practice though, they tend to be horribly bloated electron crapps.

Electron “apps” are just glorified web pages anyhow. Native applications do offer superior performance as they are AOT compiled code. The ones that are written in rust, c, c++ etc, and if they are gui applications use frameworks like QT or GTK+. They are called native since they are compiled to machine code and are directly executable in the cpu without any kind of runtime like electron browser, java or python.

To sign an EU petition you have to be a citizen of a EU member state.

A solution is not to use any product, service or software made by MS or google.

According to wikipedia Forgejo development is run by Codeberg which is a non-profit organization so I doubt they will start charging money. GitLab is managed by a for-profit corporation so anything is possible with them.

Stop using github. Move to something else e.g. codeberg.

And Kotlin.

Clicking on that picture in the link brought me back to this post. So it seems it just directs you back to the referrer.

Does the US government want Google’s developers of the Chromium codebase to work on another company’s payroll instead?

Probably. The point is that google can’t have any direct control of the browser as there’s a conflict of interest between google’s ad and other business and how web is developing. Take manifest v3 for example. Blocking content blockers directly benefits google’s ad-business. Also removing support for third party cookies etc benefits google’s ad-business while hampering others.

Quite true. Linux and all modules loaded into it are GPL licensed. The userland and tooling on the other hand can be licensed however. They are free to close source on anything except kernel code.

This is the first step in moving to fully closed source. I guess degooled versions are getting too popular thus a threat to google’s business.

You can set the webpage to self refresh on interval by itself no extensions needed.

“Page refresh”. You mean F5 (or ctrl + r) right?

All of these already sound shady.

This is or was part of their anti-spam/flooding protection.

That’s the official explanation. A phone number is a nice way to attach a real world identity to the data (which of course is sold to advertisers/data brokers etc).

I’ll add shift + f6 for refactor rename and ctrl + 6 for redefining your function i.e. add/remove parameters and/or return value.

I use Jetbrains’ products for all my coding needs.

You do have a Void type in Java if you really must specify a return type and don’t want to return anything e.g. services and their tasks in JavaFx. The Task must have a return type thus you can use Void if the task doesn’t actually return anything.

Great game. They also update it regularly with new content for free. There’s a new paid expansion coming soon.

Edit: Currently have played it for 740h.

Wikpedia puts it nicely:

"The concept of concurrent computing is frequently confused with the related but distinct concept of parallel computing,[3][4] although both can be described as “multiple processes executing during the same period of time”. In parallel computing, execution occurs at the same physical instant: for example, on separate processors of a multi-processor machine, with the goal of speeding up computations—parallel computing is impossible on a (one-core) single processor, as only one computation can occur at any instant (during any single clock cycle).[a] By contrast, concurrent computing consists of process lifetimes overlapping, but execution does not happen at the same instant.
