I don't understand your comment. They are the good guys browser-wise but that doesn't mean they are good guys everywhere.

Meta will train AI with data from European users by idefix in c/technology@lemmy.world

I wrote some insults and it worked.

Pretty sure my insults will be used to train a model as well

Hum, I'm French living in France and my son is only allowed to watch shows if they are in English. Is he going to be bullied?

I know it's a joke, I hate to be that guy. But this meme feels old and obsolete now. I can't remember the last time I had to tweak my Linux. The fun is gone

Don't dare to question Gnome by idefix in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world

[-] idefix@sh.itjust.works 27 points 2 months ago

I don't understand the simpler argument. Installing and using extensions and gnome-tweaks to change basic settings is not simpler. And I strongly dislike a large number of defaults.

With KDE Plasma, defaults make more sense to me so I barely have to change configuration. If I really need to, the setting is there and easily used.

Apple must open iPadOS to sideloading within 6 months, EU says by idefix in c/technology@lemmy.world

[-] idefix@sh.itjust.works 26 points 2 months ago

I'm pretty sure Apple is missing a significant market share of consumers like myself who can't stand their anti-competitive practices. That's why I can only buy Android phones and tablets, until we get decent Linux ones.

The cycling revolution in Paris continues: Bicycle use now exceeds car use by idefix in c/europe@feddit.de

[-] idefix@sh.itjust.works 32 points 2 months ago

The last stat I've seen in Paris is that if you were to bike to work every day on a 9 to 5 job, then you will encounter rain 17 times per year in average. When that happens, as others said, you can just accept being wet and/or dress appropriately, or take public transport.

We'll see the year of the Linux desktop before seeing justice for him.

VLC - App stores were a mistake by idefix in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

[-] idefix@sh.itjust.works 52 points 3 months ago

VLC is still on Twitter? I thought they would be quick to migrate to Mastodon, slightly disappointed.

And thanks OP for linking outside of Twitter.

And that's how I met your mother by idefix in c/whitepeopletwitter@sh.itjust.works

As much as I understand your opinion, I'm really struggling to understand how couples meet outside of apps now. I've been in a long-term monogamous relationship for more than 20 years, I'm completely out of the loop.

Postgresql connectivity issue (sh.itjust.works)

submitted 6 months ago by idefix@sh.itjust.works to c/lemmy_admin@lemmy.ml

Good afternoon! Newbie here, I've tried to install Lemmy using Ansible (Debian stable) and I ended up having an issue with the Postgresql connectivity (localhost via socket).

The error message I have is:

thread 'main' panicked at 'Error connecting to postgresql:///lemmy?user=lemmy&amp;host=/var/run/postgresql: connection to server on socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432" failed: No such file or directory

I have updated my /etc/postgresql/15/main/pg_hba.conf from peer to trust to md5 with no success (rebooting Postresql each time).

My config.hjson is:

database: {
 uri: "postgresql:///lemmy?user=lemmy&amp;host=/var/run/postgresql"
 password: "{{ postgres\_password }}"
}

Any idea / suggestion? Thanks!

Flatpak standing the test of time: modern Flatpak apps running on Ubuntu 16.04 ESM, a 7-year-old distro by idefix in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[-] idefix@sh.itjust.works 79 points 8 months ago

Having a rock-solid Debian stable as a desktop with up-to-date softwares when it matters. It sounded impossible a few years ago but that might be achievable now with Flatpak. That's awesome.
