poVoq@slrpnk.netto DACH - Deutschsprachige Community für Deutschland, Österreich, Schweiz@feddit.org•Umgang mit dem Kinderkriegen: Wenn alle Freundinnen schwanger werden10·3 days agoNa das mit der Schwangerschaft ist noch nicht das Hauptproblem. Danach sind die jungen Eltern dann ne weile total übernächtigt und gestresst, und wenn das Kind alt genug für den Kindergarten ist auch noch dauerkrank weil alle Keime angeschleppt werden (oder halt mit dem kranken Kind beschäftigt).

Vor Jahrzehnten als Missionar dahin ausgewandert, peruanische Staatsbürgerschaft angenommen und ist dort Erzbishof geworden.
Ist echt irreführen das die Presse seinen Gebursort in den USA so hervorhebt.

poVoq@slrpnk.netto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Why does Lemmy use "@" instead of ":" like Matrix does?English48·6 days agoThe bigger question is why Matrix didn’t follow the long established standard for this, which is using @.
But I guess it fits into the general pattern of: Monolithic, Awefully Trendy ReImplementation of XMPP (MATRIX).
P.S.: it’s nice to be able to have your ActivityPub, XMPP and Email all on the same address 👍
That seems like a fun toy. Thanks for sharing.
poVoq@slrpnk.netMto Europe@feddit.org•Portugal announces the expulsion of 18,000 foreigners ahead of a national electionEnglish21·7 days agoWhile it is true that Brazilians with Portuguese ancestry get some preferential treatment for immigration, it is far from what you describe. And I highly doubt those are people that crossed the border covertly, as the government wouldn’t know were they live then. It is far more likely that these are people that came legally to Portugal, have an official address and for some reason lost their visa status but were tolerated to stay. But it might indeed be retired post-brexit British people or some digital nomads.
poVoq@slrpnk.netMto Europe@feddit.org•Portugal announces the expulsion of 18,000 foreigners ahead of a national electionEnglish401·7 days agoStupid populism by the out-going center-right government. Most of those are probably well integrated Brazilians working in the tourism sector, and thus this will cause major staffing issues in the upcoming summer season.
Many things are very similar on Linux compared to Windows (e.g. Browsing, Steam). One big difference is that people prefer using package managers to install software (instead of downloading and installing it manually).
This. Especially for drivers, always use the package manager of your distro and do not attempt to manually install Nvidia drivers you downloaded from their website.
poVoq@slrpnk.netto A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•U.S. Secretary of Commerce says the ‘new model’ is factory jobs for life—for you, your kids, and your grandkids11·8 days agoThe factory owners just copied that from the Prussian model that was meant to train children to be good soldiers. Not that that was any better…

poVoq@slrpnk.netMto Europe@feddit.org•How to find jobs in Europe as an American?English14·12 days agoWhile this advise is generally ok, thinking about it as an English speaking immigrant you should probably consider what languages the locals speak. For example, while it is nice to be able to speak English with more or less anyone in the Netherlands, it also means that your ability to speak English fluently is in very low demand. While in some other country being able to speak English might be more apprechated in an new employee.
poVoq@slrpnk.netto Fediverse@lemmy.world•My Thoughts on the Fosstodon Drama | Kev QuirkEnglish11·12 days agoWell, keep repeating the same mistakes and find excuses for it all you want. I am not into “superior” solutions at all, but I don’t think there is much point in perpetuating the same clearly failed approaches.
poVoq@slrpnk.netto Fediverse@lemmy.world•My Thoughts on the Fosstodon Drama | Kev QuirkEnglish1·12 days agoIt works perfectly fine on Android 🤷 In fact much better than any Matrix client does. That’s 70-80% or so of the global smart-phone market. Just because you made the mistake buying into a shitty walled garden like iOS doesn’t mean it doesn’t work for other people. But I see a pattern here of you ignoring reality and having Stockholm syndrome.
Again, there is no point in moving “1 billion people” from Facebook to a “Facebook run AWS for social media”. There is just no benefit other than for Facebook to avoid accountability. You are wasting your time if you think otherwise.
poVoq@slrpnk.netto Fediverse@lemmy.world•My Thoughts on the Fosstodon Drama | Kev QuirkEnglish2·12 days agoFine, if you want to be the useful fool for Mark Zuckerberg you can do that, but I rather be not. The improvement in that setup is mainly on the side of Mark Zuckerberg as you write yourself. The rest would be some maganged opposition only existing because Mark lets them. But we had that argument before.
You are finding excuses for shitty business practises of Element. Synapse is already bad enough software as is, even for smaller instances, and this adds direct monetary incentives for Element to keep it bad, so that people are forced to upgrade to Synapse Pro or pay an even higher amount of money to upgrade the hardware to run this extremely inefficient shit software. This is all typical of open-core software vendors and you are having Stockholm syndrome if you think otherwise.
And please don’t be silly. XMPP had video calls long before Matrix. It works perfectly fine and there are many clients that support it. Just on one very small and developer hostile platform that outside of the US and Japan hardly anyone uses, it is work in progress and only partially supported.
It is what you make out of it. Basically it is an ActivityPub federated framework with various modules including one for microblogging.
