GDPR applies only to people (even non-EU citizens) who "live" on the territory of EU. EU citizens who leave, don't have the GDPR protection anymore. There was an affair last year when google started notifying people about transferring their account data to non-EU datacenters after it detected them connecting from a foreign IP when they went for a holiday to Thailand for a month. So clearly you have some misunderstandings of GDPR. Also GDPR prevents selling stuff??

@mihor oh oh, someone drank too much russian kool-aid

@danielquinn @Tomkoid That might change very quickly after Gitlab finds a buyer.

@gomp Yes but the point is that it comes from a different place and a different time, so for you to execute a compromised program, it would have to be compromised for a prolonged time without anyone else noticing. You are protected by the crowd. In curl|sh you are not protected from this at all

@gomp You mean, as seldom available as every apt install ever? https://superuser.com/a/990153

@gomp Why would you be taking the signature from the same website? Ever heard of PGP key servers?

@gomp try comparing it with apt install, not with downloading a .deb file from a random website - that is obviously also very insecure. But the main thing curl|sh will never have is verifying the signature of the downloaded file - what if the server got compromised, and someone simply replaced it. You want to make sure that it comes from the actual author (you still need to trust the author, but that's a given, since you are running their code). Even a signed tarball is better than curl|sh.

@Sethayy cool, go ahead. But still nobody made that take, so ... you are arguing with the wind.

@Sethayy nobody made that take...

@overclox The lack of redistribution is what's causing projects to disappear and die, vendor lock-in, walled gardens, bricked devices.. you clearly have no idea what you are talking about

@overclox Which means it's not open-source, silly, because open-source explicitly means you can redistribute it.

@deliriousowl Oh wow, look at this guy, he just solved it all! Now we can finally put all the climate change worries behind. Thanks for saving the world.

@deliriousowl @

If life gives you lemons, make lemonade. If you kitchen is on fire, grill sausages. If your crops are dying, eat dirt. I mean the positive attitude is nice, but it does break down a bit towards the end...

@deliriousowl @gigachad

I hope you are joking. That's average. So 10m above sea level, but washed away twice per year by the more energetic storms and floods.

@jonuno graphs and numbers, but try to create your favorite solution and then see what it will cost: https://en-roads.climateinteractive.org/scenario.html?v=24.6.0

@ExtremeDullard Au contraire - if the information is public, you may say you just found it here.

@ExtremeDullard Can you share the name of the new open source tool you found? Spread the knowledge, make more people leave the proprietary litigious vendors.

And thanks for sharing your story.

@cbarrick How many clients exist for Zulip?

@makeasnek When I found out how easy it is to send Bitcoin on F-Droid, I started sending a couple of bucks each month to the apps I use. I wish donating was always this easy, more people would do it.

@FuckyWucky @corvus

If I have to choose between having a corrupt inefficient financial system with thousands of middlemen, vs this guy yelling at me his nonsense.. I'm choosing this guy yelling at me.
