Howdy! 👋

I’m level 27 web dev from 🇫🇮 Finland. Full stack developer by trade but more into server side and sysadmin stuff.

A furry or something. Why be yourself when you can be fluffy raccoon on the internet?

I’m also on Mastodon: @jakeRaccoon@mastodon.social

I remember reading an article about how we’re already able to simulate basic tastes, like sweetness and sourness, digitally. So just you wait, we might have lickable HTML elements in the future

It’s still unclear if he’s allowed to use the logo and such. The national broadcaster Yle (which itself has a strict policy against advertising) allowed it in the national show and argued that (quote) “Windows 95 is no longer a protected trademark today. The product is hardly used by anyone anymore. Thus the name and the costume are allowed”

But EBU might have a different stance ofc

The expectation of everyone having a credit card as soon as they can get one and paying everything with credit to somehow “build” credit. Sounds such a great way to get people into financial trouble at a young age.

Good luck trying to “shut down” a open source software… Still sucks tho, why Nintendo gotta make so good games but be so shitty of a company otherwise

Sorry to ask, I’m not really familiar with Linux desktop nowadays: I’ve seen Flatpak and Flathub talked about a lot lately and it seems to be kinda a controversial topic. Anyone wanna fill me in what’s all the noice about? It’s some kind of cross-distro “app store” thingy?

I think it would be useful with updates when setting up a new phone or after a factory reset when basically every app needs an update

Cool, thanks for the explanation.

a single application that gets bundled with all necessary dependencies including versioning

Does that mean that if I were to install Application A and Application B that both have dependency to package C version 1.2.3 I then would have package C (and all of its possible sub dependencies) twice on my disk? I don’t know how much external dependencies applications on Linux usually have but doesn’t that have the potential to waste huge amounts of disk space?

That’s the part I don’t get at all. How come is not having any credit history a bad indicator? If anything, it should tell that the person is financially stable to afford things without needing credit.

Where I live (and I think in other European countries too, with exceptions) it works other way around. Having a clean credit record is a good thing and only if you neglect your payments you get negative marks on your record. Having any negative marks generally prevents you from taking any new loans or financing (a good thing!) but negative marks will be cleared after debts have been paid off and some time has passed.

Hieman yllätys kyllä. Kellään tän vuoden artisteista ei ole realistisia mahdollisuuksia menestyä viisuissa, joten meemiarvoltaan parhaan artistin lähettäminen saattaa olla jopa järkevin vaihtoehto.
