To be fair it’s 2024 and I’m still doing this, because adding an alternate location to install flatpaks in results in Flatseal not being able to detect those apps or edit those permissions. Just setting the default location as a symlink to where I want to magically fixes everything.
Yeah I just checked Atkinson Hyperlegible and, at least the version I can access (the one on Github) lacks entire Latin and compatible character ranges, as well as having a substantially limited math symbols set (only two greek letters show, for example).
The weird thing is, if I understand how fonts correctly, that shouldn’t have been an issue. The font doesn’t register those missing characters, so your browser should have known to fallback to a default typeface for the missing characters. It’d be weird if you have none of the many compatible fonts (not even, say, Times New Roman).
Leading with the hard questions, I see!
(I honestly wouldn’t know how to answer the question. I guess in order to pirate it, you’d have to fetch a copy from someone who broke the license terms and is thus not authorized to distribute it, but that kinda turns into a Catch-22)
Yeah I’ve heard about punycode. Personally, I’m well against it because it puts down non-MURRICAN English domain names as second-class citizens on the internet. If I have a website about Copiapó, a perfectly legal town, there’s no good reason why the domain name should not be copiapó.cl
rather than copiap-xcwhngoingohi4oleleiyho42yt4ptg4ht4.cl
, making it look “suspect” and “malware-y”.
There were quite some complains back in the time about Firefox choosing not to “flag” internationalized names as potentially dangerous, and pretty much all those complaints that I know of likely came from English speakers who simply can’t understand other countries in the world even can have different alphabets.
It’s likely that system only has the base Latin-1 font set for some weird reason? Or a misconfigured fontserver (or equivalent in Windows). My understanding is that the text “sail the high seas” uses glyphs in both the Latin D group and the phonetic extensions groups (feel free to correct me!), so pretty much any Unicode-aware font since 2010, FOSS or otherwise, would render this correctly.
I personally recommend the Liberation font set, although it’s free software so you can’t really pirate it.
if you want voice well, then idk what to say
Mumble!
And don’t get me started on TLS certificates in local networks…
I hate this and the fact that modern platforms seem to require TLS even if you’re serving localhost, so much.
Grandmas can easily install Cookie Clicker and Angry Bird and DownloadMoreRam and anything else they find on the internet with quite an ease. Are you telling me the average internet person is noticeably less capable than a grandma?
I’m not sure it’s that difficult to follow. If you offer a service in the EU, you are responsible for your server deleting personal data (or, even better, not even hosting it in the fist place!); you are not responsible for other people not deleting their copy of personal data.
But I’m not that well-informed in the actual legalese so my best understanding is the big issue is the EU’s definition of “provide service to the EU” more than anything else. They seem to think that just because your users might upload a local copy of a picture of someone from the EU, even if you yourself are not allowing connections from the EU, then you are serving to the EU. And with how nazi the EU has been going lately with stuff like ChatControl, the last thing I’d want as an instance owner is to be upheld to arbitrary boomers’ (lack of) understanding of technology.
I’ve taken to using .here
(or .aqui
, “here” in Español, much harder to match outside) as alternatives until something better comes up.
Ideally I’d use .aquí
, correctly with the diacritic, but DNS doesn’t seem to support even the basics of Unicode in 2024.
Not sure exactly what files do you have but at least on my system:
/usr/share/ppd/cupsfilters
if you want them grabbe dby Cups./usr/share/color/icc
. Which directory I guess depends on what and who is managing those files./usr/share/gutenprint
in a directory within usually with the name papers
(note the plural).Now, all this gets me is where to place the files. I wouldn’t know exactly how to register to eg.: Cups that those files are there other than using Cups’s own web interface to add drivers.
64-bit IPv5
64-bit IP would be IPv8, not IPv5.
Not a big deal. We’re projected to run out of years by 2000 and then the world will end.
I felt dirty!
“Senpai, route me like one of your French ISPs”
128 bits basically gives one ip4 address space to each square meter of earth.
That sounds like terminal stage capitalism to me. Why would we want every tree in the Amazons to be cybergorized with its own IP? I don’t know Rick, 64 kbits bits ought to be enough for everybody, and I’m already risking it.
IPv6 is unfortunately not six bytes, no. For some weird, ass-backwards reason.
Boy do we like it!
That’s what they thought for IPv4… and for 2-year digits… and for…
To be fair, it’s quite an advancement considering what I was expecting.
Just about my only question is why the return is a
string
and not a `string_view``.
