It says “Payments are made after exchanging existing money into electronic money with the help of an Exchange service, that is, a payment service provider for Taler.”

Do they say anywhere who that payment service provider is? And are there options for who to use?

What is the relationship of fiat currency to tokens? is it €1:1 token?

Good tip! I had heard of them, but they fell off the list somehow. I’ll add them in soon. thank you!

Is there not a service like Bandcamp, but for movies and TV?

I want to pay for stuff, so the creators are rewarded, and then I own a copy.

Is Emby totally self hosted (like Jellyfin)? Or do they host your stuff (like Plex)?

Can access this via Duck AI, and compare to other models on the fly.

Currency? I thought it was a payments handler to rival Visa and MasterCard.

Lots of alternatives on this website https://www.rebeltechalliance.org/stopusingbigtech.html

If there was a Bandcamp for film and TV, then I would buy stuff there. DRM free.

But until then…

I installed Mint in a cheap mini PC to self host, and have had problems with external USB storage drives.

They kept dismounting, until I realised you have to give them a permanent mount location (why?!).

And they kept losing power because Linux had a default setting that USB devices ‘auto suspend’ after some time. This took ages to diagnose, and command line stuff to fix 😔

Other than that it seems to be a solid distro.

Also - I think these distros should make it simpler to partition the SSD on install. I used to easily do that when building Windows PCs but it was not clear I was making the right choices with Mint, so I went with the default.

Oh… I thought it meant that those cookie banners were ‘false consent’ and therefore render the data collected to be illegal?

Please provide more info - I would like to learn more about this subject!

That is a great find. Thank you!

Oh wow, you’re right!

I wonder how they set that up? DDG has thousands of bangs but not one for Lemmy - probably because it is not at one single URL?

It would be cool if there was an operator that would force the search into Lemmy content. Are they called bangs? Like starting with !r

Totally. And that “legitimate interest” nonsense takes ages to click through 🤦

Damn, I hadn’t even thought about the environment impact! Is there any research quantifying that?

I do support them already 😊

But you’re right about this government - they just got exposed for being corrupt with big tech https://archive.is/DlUeE

Thank you! The Vivaldi team are great 😁

Great idea! Two things

• E2EE is a default in privacy by design so consider CryptPad for docs instead
• change the name. Inline Style is terrible (sorry but to a native English speaker it sounds lame). How about just Inline?

I thought that I would need Yunohost to take care of all the web hosting stuff in the back ground…? Are you saying to just push files into the VPS barebones, or into Yunohosts website app shell? (Sorry I’m new to VPS stuff).

And how would you push the files from Codeberg? what is the method?
