Det er modtaget. Jeg ved ikke lige hvorfor jeg ikke gjorde det :)

smpl , to Linux in Debian maintainer unilaterally strips KeepassXC package of a lot of features

CMakeLists.txt:

option(WITH_XC_AUTOTYPE "Include Auto-Type." ON)
option(WITH_XC_NETWORKING "Include networking code (e.g. for downloading website icons)." OFF)

# stuff inbetween cut out

if(WITH_XC_ALL)
    # Enable all options (except update check and docs)
    set(WITH_XC_AUTOTYPE ON)
    set(WITH_XC_NETWORKING ON)
    set(WITH_XC_BROWSER ON)
    set(WITH_XC_BROWSER_PASSKEYS ON)

    set(WITH_XC_KEESHARE ON)
    if(UNIX AND NOT APPLE)
        set(WITH_XC_FDOSECRETS ON)
    endif()
endif()

I'm no CMake expert, but it looks like to me, from the first line of the above snippet, that the default in the upstream build script is WITH_XC_ALL=OFF.

Sadly Sci-Hub has not received updated articles in several years. Alexandra is waiting for the outcome of the trial in India. I don't think it depends on what the outcome is, just that the trial needs to be over.

smpl , to Open Source in How are companies or developers supposed to make a full time living with OSI opensourced projects?
@smpl@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

WARNING. Everything other than the last paragraph is kind of rude and opinionated, so skip to the bottom if you only want practical advice and not a philosophical rant.

First of all Free Software don't need paid developers. We scruffy hackers create software because it's fun. I have a strong suspicion that the commercialization of Free Software via the businessfriendly clothing "Open Source" is actually creating a lot of shitty software or at least a lot of good software that'll be obsoleted to keep business going. Capitalization of Free Software doesn't have an incentive to create good finished software, quite the opposite. The best open source software from commercial entities is in my opinion those that were open sourced when a product was no longer profitable as a proprietary business. As examples I love the ID software game engines and Blender. Others seem happy that Sun dumped the source code of Star Office, which then became OpenOffice and LibreOffice, but then again companies like Collabora are trying to turn it into a shitty webification instead of implementing real collaborative features into the software like what AbiWord has.

..and back in the real world where you need to buy food. Open Source consultancy, implementation of custom out-of-tree features, support, courses and training, EOL maintainance or products that leaverage Open Source software is my best answer. See Free Software as a commons we all contribute to, so that we can do things with it and built things from it. You should not expect people to pay for Free Software, but you can sell things that take advantage of Free Software as a resource.

smpl , to Linux in 4 Tools to Share Large Files Over the Internet Securely
@smpl@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

As @Caboose12000 already said, I'd recommend drop.lol (can be selfhosted). Filetransfers are direct between peers (unless you're behind some hardcore NAS where UDP hole-punching via STUN is not possible).

I mean how I transfer a file depends on the situation. If it's to someone on XMPP I'd just establish a direct transfer there. Sometimes I share a directory over HTTP, FTP, SFTP and so on. The easiest way for most people, because it only requires a WebRTC capable browser, is with one of the many peer to peer filesharing platforms like drop.lol.

Don't be so sad, the list is shit.

I like drop.lol
