IRC still exists, the closest FOSS IRC client to mIRC is KVIrc.
The closest thing to a modernized IRC is Matrix.


Me neither. Anyone know what advantages or disadvantages it has compared to Shotcut?


It seems that you understand what the term “metaverse” was even supposed to mean; care to enlighten the rest of us?


Why are we giving exposure to someone whose job it is to enforce restrictive copyright laws and who uses the term “intellectual property”?


The law will be the same in all EU countries, including whichever parts you think will be “not mandatory” (I did read those news articles and am fully aware that mandatory scanning is no longer on the table).


misleading headline, this isn’t a list of countries in which the law will (if it passes) be different (it won’t be, it’s an EU law, so will be the same in all EU countries), it’s a list of countries that currently support/oppose the law


The article is from May; has anything important related to this happened in the last few days, or why are you posting this now?


That looks good, I might try it over the weekend. :D Thanks for the effort.


If you come up with one, I might start to use it. I generally like the classic Windows style because the first computer interfaces I ever used looked like that, but nowadays I definitely insist on dark mode.
a desktop version of a web version of a desktop app? talk about going full circle :D


It isn’t any of my business whether other people use light themes… but IMHO dark themes are just so much easier on the eyes, no matter the surrounding light, that I don’t get why anyone would if they have the option.


In my mind it’s weird to use any light theme at all now that dark themes are widely available, but if you are going to, this isn’t any weirder than any other.
Another disadvantage it seems to have over many other themes is that in tabbed interfaces there is no color bar on the currently active tab, so you can’t spot the currently active tab as quickly.


It’s an expansion to say that LLM training constitutes a derivative work. You are of course entitled to your opinion that it should be the case; all I can say to that is that in the 2000s and 2010s nearly everyone on the Internet tended to argue for more limitations, not further expansions, of copyright law, and I wonder what happened to that attitude.


and yet it is still a legally unsettled question whether LLM training requires a copyright license at all; and it is my opinion that no one should want that to be the case, why would people on the Internet want to argue for an expansion of copyright law?


What does that even mean…? If you know of something specific that is superior about analog compared to digital clocks, I’d like to hear it.


Plenty of people older than Gen Alpha very much prefer digital clocks too. I can read analog clocks but it takes me several seconds to convert it to digital time (which is how my brain thinks). As far as I’m concerned, analog clocks are a relic of the past and it’s a good thing to abolish as many of them as possible.
The FSF has a page dedicated to this exact question: https://www.gnu.org/distros/common-distros.html.en


Why do I want this? There are already many browsers available, and this one isn’t even (apparently: yet) FOSS, so why should I be excited about this one?
I say in my notice that Roskomnadzor can negatively impact the spiritual and moral development of children.
