> Git hashes are not supposed to be a security mechanism.

That you are wrong. Many people and orgs rely on this.

Does not matter if you think it's stupid, for them it is. live with it.

No, but the economic situation is banning you from getting a job, which is even more powerful than the government, especially when the government does not support a rising economy which will create jobs, people can build wealth with.

so the argument is even stronger than for oracle.

what can this do, what you cannot do with traditional elfs? static linking you also could do beforehand?

> Which is only the core problem because dmarc fixed the other core problem of figuring out who the given sender is.

Does it verify the sender or the domain/service which the sender is using?

I have two questions:

1. Does Radicle also work over TOR? 2. Does Radicle support Git LFS and/or Git Annex?

that depends though, which channel you choose. And their efforts for stage0 and such also increased the possibility for all.

Yay for Free software and Opensource! we all benefit! :)

the idea that debian has a few million dollars to spare creates the assumption, that even if they would have... you would either not know how to fix issues, or not worth it.

you are free to provide patches instead of bitching.

newcomers will always have it much easier. also guix i think also reached this.

also, stagex and others probably profited QUITE A LOT from the debian efforts, because they started to go upstream and talking to developers..

just arch linux profited from debian maintainers a decade before that an debian people asking upstream to improve...

"mimimimi".

Those people do not care about quality in opensource at all. For longliving software this is very important.

Of course, all those javascript and kubernetes packages which are irrelevant in a few years again, might complain, but let them complain.

> What will we end up with? Only attested modems / endpoints in the home?

you might laugh/cry, but there was a time in germany, when the telephone at home was owned by the state (the "Post") and you were NOT allowed to tinker with it.

personally, i guess, things like sneakernet, lorawan and hamradio will become a lot more popular over time.

Could, but they did not do that. So, the question is to be stated: Why?

New comment by deknos in "Why are we still using Markdown?"

deknos — Sat, 04 Apr 2026 14:57:47 +0000

i would not use html(5). XHTML? perhaps. but try to find 3 parsers, which parse html in the same way and not segfaulting.

It's not possible. HTML is worse. You need at least something, which on parsing does not segfault.

deknos — Wed, 25 Mar 2026 08:02:00 +0000

i never understood why the markdown mime type was not used in emailclients in webclients or desktop programs...

that would eliminate most html usage and enable longer texts than 70-85 characters per line.

I cannot wait until it's in an appstore for android and that it will work with android/iphone together. And i seriously hope you do not abandon it. That being said, i have questions:

1. When i have a higher version, but others have a lowerpaid version, can i still connect to more members, or am i constrained by the lowestpaying customer in the network? 2. Do you have reproducible builds? 3. airdrop sadly only works with iphones, how will this be done with android? 4. would it be a possibility, that after some time you made decent money, you consider a even higher paid stage, where i can fully build the best /most feature version myself? just in case you ever leave the project? 5. https://github.com/RedGridMGRS/RedGridMGRS is a 404 for me? 6. Would it be possible you also use openstreetmap or better to say integrate map loading from there? 7. Would you consider adding something like https://www.fixphrase.com / what3words-alternative into the app, so coordinates could be uses with phrases?
