For a someone looking to switch from a M-series MacBook to a Thinkpad, which one would you recommend? Preferably not of a diminished quality, so I can daily-drive Ubuntu without missing Apple.

I’m wondering why most FOSS projects choose Codeberg which is another (although FOSS aligned) centralised forge instead of something like this.

My parents didn’t monitor what I was doing on the internet when I was growing up in 00s. I saw a lot of shit and wasted a lot of money on GPRS and WAP portals. I learned from my mistakes and I’m glad I did. I wouldn’t want to monitor everything my children do either.

I do want C++ to be a safer language, but I don't think inheriting the Rust safety model is the way to go. It is in a way revolutionary but has major downsides like inability to deal with cyclic data structures without clumpsy workarounds.

I don't want to play with a plastic sword, just put it in a sheath.

Nice to hear fuchsia is still being worked on. I was a bit concerned given there were no new changelogs published for half a year.

I was on by default for me, both after the macOS 14 -> 15 upgrade and after installing macOS 15 cleanly. I wonder if they ask for consent in some regions only.
