checkout my new #snippet on #chaos.expert

I wanted to know where inch to centimeter conversion can be done using integers; like: "2 inches are roughly 5 centimeters". The precision is adjustable and defaults with +/- 0.1.

128 bit integers were added to Rust, so my program that counts how often the Rust compiler has saved my ass, can be implemented without the value overflowing.

Google is Adding Anti-Tampering DRM To Android Apps in the Play Store Slashdot
https://nu.federati.net/url/145914

Google has introduced a small change to Play Store apps that could significantly protect several Android users. From a report:

Earlier this week, Google quietly rolled out a feature that adds a string of metadata to all APK files (that's the file type for Android apps) when they are signed by the developer. You can't install an application that hasn't been signed during its final build, so that means that all apps built using the latest APK Signature Scheme will have a nice little chunk of DRM built into them. And eventually, your phone will run a version of Android that won't be able to install apps without it.

Where is my Linux phone?

I'm still waiting...

«In 1993, John Gilmore famously said that "The Internet interprets censorship as damage and routes around it." That was technically true when he said it but only because the routing structure of the Internet was so distributed. As centralization increases, the Internet loses that robustness, and censorship by governments and companies becomes easier.»

Open Source folks: why do you have a problem with open source and not with Free Software?

Me: I’m sorry, I didn’t get that… it’s so hard to understand what you’re saying when you’re busy kissing Google’s ass.

If you're concerned about #Microsoft buying #GitHub (and you should be) please do not simply move to GitLab.com (the hosted #GitLab instance), it also runs on MS servers, (Azure) - always self-host GitLab, or if it's too heavy, go with Gitea.

Whatever you do, do not simply move from one silo to another.
