Huh I guess that really makes me think

I’ve been playing Cities: Skylines for more than ten years and never noticed it had a homelessness mechanic.

No, not at all.

After your edit, it is slightly clearer what you are asking. But this is still a matter of desktop environment more than distro.

??????

This is a meaningless metric: lots of people probably got it from sources they have no way of tracking (e.g. distro repos), others may be crawlers, etc. etc.

Me too. It even supports connecting to SFTP servers (maybe needs an extension).

The https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution is a part of the US Constitution that prohibits laws violating certain specific rights, two of them being the freedom of speech and freedom of the press. Many other countries have some equivalent to this too.

The relevance here is that taking photos of public spaces is part of freedom of speech and of the press.

The clue of what ActivityPub is for is in the name: it is for publishing activities.

Some such activities could be that someone has written, updated, or commented on fanfiction stories. If you want to exchange that information between different sites, AP is very well suited for that.

An SQL clause walks into a bar. It walks up to two tables and asks: “Can I join you?”

While I agree with the petition, it shouldn’t be limited to Windows, it should be about software freedom…

It’s a good analysis, but not really specific to code, the exact same ideas apply to AI-generated text, images, music, etc.

This would actually not meet the criteria of free and open source software if it were real.

I think the study is this: https://journals.humankinetics.com/view/journals/pes/38/3/article-p268.xml

This is linked to in this article about the same study https://www.derstandard.at/story/3000000336466/warum-bildschirmzeit-das-gehirn-von-kindern-sogar-foerdern-kann but as that is in German, I obviously posted it only to communities in German, not here.

from proprietary software, not from Microsoft; nothing wrong with using free software just because it was developed by Microsoft

I thought the goal was precisely not profit? 😂😂😂

But yes, this is exactly what I meant.

“Web” means HTTP and HTML.

I fail to understand the point of this.

If the goal is to be able to deliver documents without any JS, cookies, tracking, etc., then why not just deliver documents that way through the web? No one is forcing anyone to put those things on any website.

No, they are both not really suitable for that. But I don’t see where the link in the OP implies they plan to store binary image data in XML, they’re probably going to store that in a binary format and use XML to describe relationships and other metadata.

IMHO: XML is superior as a document storage format. JSON is superior as a data transfer format.
