Commodore 1581

It could be used with Commodore 128, which could run CP/M.

As long as 99.9999999% of Android users use Google Android it won’t matter that 0.0000001% doesn’t.

Android… Best of both worlds…

Windows does that automatically when switching from Linux to Windows… 😁

The article you’re linking to starts with security researchers who installed their own backdoor which went undetected. Then it continues with a warning about the dangers of not being able to check if the firmware actually is a firmware actually from the vendor and not a manipulated one.

While I’m pro open source and agree that there are dangers not knowing what firmware is used I fail to see how an open source firmware / bios world be immune to be switched out.

What am I missing here?

Du you have any like about bios and sloppy engineering that I can read up on

Yup. Just like my Nexus 10. Even though no one loves it I still do…

Oh… More unsubstantiated claims from you… Well … have a nice Friday evening.

I just love how you end with “I have zero reason to listen to you” when no one has claimed such a thing and you were the one choosing to do the listening.

All of this because of me pointing out that WHO still claims that there is a daily amount of aspartame that is safe to consume and that the only thing you can prove is that something is unsafe and not the other way around.

By the way… If you think we should avoid aspartame because there is a suspicion that it might cause cancer I can imagine what you think about sugar, animal fat and protein which there is actual proof that it can cause everything from heart disease to cancer.

You use a (heavily questioned) statement of an organization as a base for your claims when the organization explicitly doesn’t support your conclusion. It’s a fact that WHO still claims there is no dangers consuming the recommended daily amount.

The method used on rats to estimate the dangers is the method used when estimating dangers every other substances. So the argument is valid as long as you claim that every other substance cause cancer.

Then you end up nibbling on edges of the classic “the great aspartame conspiracy” but what you totally miss that “big sugar” is even more powerfull…

The statement you think is supporting your belief is actually saying the opposite. WHO specifically does not claim that aspartame cause cancer.

However, what they did state is there was no reason to change the recommended acceptable daily intake level of 40 mg per kg of body weight per day .

Also, The FDA disagrees with IARC’s (what you refer to as WHO) conclusion that these studies support classifying aspartame as a possible carcinogen to humans. FDA scientists reviewed the scientific information included in IARC’s review in 2021 when it was first made available and identified significant shortcomings in the studies on which IARC relied. FDA also pointed out that JECF (also WHO) did not raise safety concerns for aspartame under the current levels of use and did not change the Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI).

So yeah… Just believing journalists trying to click bait you is probably more likely to give you cancer than following the recommendation from WHO regarding daily intake of aspartame.

Your reasoning is on level with religious people claiming that atheists have to prove that god doesn’t exist.

How do you prove that you are not a murderer?

Isn’t “anyone can fork if a project doesn’t really fit their taste” sort of the curse of open source?

Swallowing your pride, merging into another project and taking a less glamorous role in that project is not as easy as it was to fork when steering your project.

This is generally speaking. I’m definitively not saying any of this is that case with the XFS project.

Ps. Murdering your wife is also something that seems to be bad for filesystems…

I know. I was just playing with Cunningham’s law to clarify that while Android is not GNU it’s still Linux.

Care to elaborate?

So Linux is an operating system and Android isn’t?

How much fruit do you have to eat to get a proper amount of proteins per day?

Care to elaborate?

Tiger Lily?

Yup. I think we’ll just have to a) wait until other people arrive and b) stop pushing subjects such as “how much do you hate Reddit”, “Reddit have big problems now because…”, “Spaz is an a-hole”

Either Lemmy is a sustainable ecosystem (posts causing discussion which then causes more posts) or Lemmy exists only until Reddit is good again.

I’m here because I believe that Lemmy is big enough to stand on its own feet.
