This guy (Nautilus Squid) has more than 4 legs but otherwise it fits. But im 99% sure there is some kind of 4 legged shelled slime guy somewhere in the oceans.

I used windows 95 an hour ago because the control system for some lab equipment runs on it. Its actually super snappy and reactive. Boots in like 10 seconds even on that old ass hardware.

I havent used gmail in a while. By tags do you mean that you can add one or more custom tags to emails that you can then use to filter by? If so, yes Thunderbird does support that, but i assume its locally stored information. You can sync your thunderbird profile across devices tho.

thank you my friend :)

Its not even a good email provider. It has horribly aggressive filtering and logging in through a proper client like thunderbid/k9mail always requires tedious extra steps.

Always glad to share cool projects :)

If you go up to the parent directory of the links i sent it shows the last couple versions (20250801, 20250601, 20250201, 20241201) so it gets updated every few months yes. I believe the URL has stayed the same for the past decade or so too, so it should be fairly easy to automate that even.

There is also apps like Aard2 that allow you to have all of wikipedia (no images duh) offline on your phone. https://github.com/itkach/aard2-android

Its a general dictionary type app so it supports things other than wikipedia too. There is a link to the dictionary files in the readme on that github, but it can be confusing.

If you have 23GB of space and your storage isnt fat32 formatted: https://ftp.halifax.rwth-aachen.de/aarddict/enwiki/enwiki20250801-slob/

If it is fat32 then you gotta download it in 4GB chunks: https://ftp.halifax.rwth-aachen.de/aarddict/enwiki/enwiki20250801-vol-slob/

The downside to this is that i (you?) often want very recent fresh info from wikipedia and this obviously doesnt work well for that because it doesnt support updating in a way where you only have to download the changes. If somebody knows of an app that supports this, where you only have to download a couple MB of changes every day to keep the entire thing up to date let me know.

Yeah okay, that joke just doesnt work for me even if i know it, because instructions wouldnt make people commit suicide so its just odd. Would have worked if the conversation with the LLM itself had made the kid kill itself.

Because US cops will totally do something about it lmao

The concept of “uncrustables” is something so absurd. Surely thats a US invention right?

not a single security researcher has found it

They do find it regularly. Its not even a secret, they are openly advertising it as a feature.

AND ALEXA IS LISTENING TO ME 24X365 DAYS A YEAR!

It is… thats its purpose…

I think you are in the wrong place on lemmy if you are so willingly blind to the realities of tech companies.

You can make yourself believe that you turned it off for now*

According to the company: https://www.mongodb.com/company/newsroom/press-releases/mongodb-issues-new-server-side-public-license-for-mongodb-community-server

Unfortunately, once an open source project becomes interesting, it is too easy for cloud vendors who have not developed the software to capture all of the value while contributing little back to the community

They are totally morally correct imo, but reality simply doesnt work like that. If you disallow free use of your software for commercial purposes, it will simply die. They also just spent a bit too much money on a single project from what it look like.

“We have invested approximately $300M in R&D over the past decade to offer a modern, general purpose, open source database for everyone. With the added protection of the SSPL, we can continue to invest in R&D and further drive innovation and value for the community.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MongoDB

MongoDB has been removed from the Debian, Fedora and Red Hat Enterprise Linux distributions because of the licensing change. Fedora determined that the SSPL version 1 is not a free software license because it is “intentionally crafted to be aggressively discriminatory” towards commercial users.

Microsoft made some database software called DocumentDB (which utilizes a kind of database system called NoSQL) that the Linux Foundation is now accepting into their list of projects they support. This was done because, unlike others like MongoDB, this one called DocumentDB was released under a license that people can use without certain restrictions that MongoDB put inside their license.

The core issue is that big tech companies regularly take software developed by open source devs and then use it for their big money machines without giving anything back to the original developers. MongoDB was fed up with this and started using a license that forces companies to publicize the code of the projects they use MongoDB for. Big Tech doesnt like that, because they really like money and not sharing how they make that money.

“Today, the market has spoken,” Farkas wrote on Tuesday. “The Linux Foundation has announced the adoption of the DocumentDB project to create an open standard with MongoDB compatibility, the exact thing we were sued for earlier this year.”

So now they have a software suite that people can use to replace their MongoDB systems.

If you want more, NVIDIA is bullying tech reviewers into pushing fake reviews

Not a shitpost and weird title.

You ever seen competitive swimmers?

I have some apps that havent been updated for like a year because the simply fucking work.

Yeah. The left path is the way.

This way everyone can inspect your schlong without any extra steps :)
