Cool to see.

I am curious though, does Slackware do anything that other Distros can’t?

Is there a reason to choose it over say Debian or Fedora aside from it being around for so long and the nostalgia factor

Me unironically lmao

I love my Fairphone 3. This is great news.

This seems to fix it. I have no idea how or what caused that setting to be enabled since I did not change it.

I can see my posts etc now. Thank you for the tip.

Won’t somebody please think about the poor lowly fossil fuel company shareholders.

How will they ever achieve pertetual growth every quarter if this tech gains traction.

We should tax these new technologies so that fossil fuels can still compete

/s in case its not obvious lol

Went down a bit of a rabbit hole here. Very interesting. Would love to see a Vsauce style video going into various real life examples of this

Thanks for sharing.

Unfettered Capitalism breeds emshitification.

Why build and keep a great product when shareholders will always push for more growth and higher revenue. Even if that means laying off your best devs and pissing off users.

Not through the API call, but elsewhere like when you make an account on their website etc

As far as I know, companies like Gfycat make money by selling API access to different apps. Like say in a messaging app likeTelegram or Signal. The easiest way for them to integrate a gif search and send function inside of messages is through API access to Gfycat’s servers. Gfycat then charges them for this streamlined integration and access.

That plus selling user data or ads on their website means they will have some revenue. I dont know if its enough to keep them afloat. Since they are shutting down, I’m guessing it didnt pan out so well.

Yeah fuck this move. Seems incredibly short sighted and a huge fuck you to the community.

I use Linux Mint XFCE on my laptop and desktop. And the standard Steam OS on my Steam Deck.
