Sorry, I found that on Instagram. If I cropped out the author’s name, it was unintentional.

Let’s link the author IG here: https://www.instagram.com/war.and.peas

I am in.

Reminded me of the movie Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within (2001), except the ghosts are alien ghosts, not human ghosts.

The Apache main process runs as root. When it receives a request, it spawns a child process that doesn’t run as root. PHP runs as the same user as the Apache child process.

Why Geck ?

I forgot to add the Tumbleweed to the OpenSUSE - that was what I meant. Fixed, thank you!

Go with OpenSuSE Tumbleweed or Fedora, because software updates roll in at a good pace. Stable, easy to use and configure.

Go with Arch or Manjaro only if you really want the bleeding-edge software versions. You can have some instability as a result, or not. Good luck.

Don’t go with Debian, Ubuntu and likewise, only if you want to make some gymnastics to update your programs every major release. These are the most stable Linux distros.

Oh no, not again.

edit: I simply wish to enjoy comics, and I hope others can enjoy them too, without having to do a full background check on the author of the comic, keeping the community simple and nice. This should be like a library of good comics.

That’s the equivalent of a lot of straws.

The problem is the cache. Always.

I can live with that, I mean, subscription for games, but once a game enters the catalog, it can never be removed.

Google Wave was beautiful. I was rooting for it to replace email as a standard. So many possibilities lost…

Since I am curious but lazy enough to search for the description of each one of these apps, I made an experiment. I asked GPT-4 to generate a description for them. I provided the context below:

This is a list of FOSS Android apps. I need you to briefly explain in one line what each one of these does.
You should use the knowledge you already have, but on doubt query the https://f-droid.org/

[I included OP full list here]

I tried twice. In the first one I not included the f-droid context above, and the list he generated have some misleading descriptions. The second try I passed the full prompt above, and the resulting descriptions was better.

Interestingly, GPT-4 alerts when he search the internet, but in this second try he did not accessed it, but the resulting list was better anyway, although not perfect:

This is a goddamn cute black hole.

A few days ago, I ran into some issues while trying to authenticate on a website (Android). It sent a verification code to my email, but every time I open the email, the browser restarted and the page reload, making it impossible to enter the code.

Couldn’t find the code text box because it was generated dynamically, so I needed to generate another code. Really annoying.

The poor mod definitely needs an AI to help with moderation.

Holup, are you guys having creative freedom?
