Ugh, those GitHub comments are horrible. If I was the author, I would just walk away from the project. People have no shame in making demands for free work.

An elaboration would be nice. GDPR applies to Germany as-is, right? So a local privacy law expanding on EU regulation?

I played Albion Online for a while until it was clear it needed a lot of grinding and paying to be able to play properly. Not going back.

This is a fun little game that does not take long to finish. Recommended.

Bring back call recording. And stop closing up the platform.

Sounds pretty close to Debian as far as I remember. In Debian those symlinks are called alternatives, and can be configured with update-alternatives. Not sure about the Python libraries though.

Are these made similarly to how Debian handles python2 and python3 for instance?

I'm not sure that anything short of a package manager that would compile everything from sources would be able to provide capability to pick and mix specific package versions.

Heh, Distrobox came to my mind when writing my comment. I haven't used it enough to recommend it yet though.

I recall there are some other development container projects, but can't remember the names right now.

Development containers are nice in theory. In practice, sometimes development environments are so complex that it might not be worth the trouble. But it's good to have options.

Distro packages don't really matter much in my experience. You either use project-specific package management or install stuff with Homebrew or Nix package manager. Sometimes maybe even containers.

One problem with distro packages is that you can only install one version. And in practise a lot of software projects have outdated dependencies. Sometimes you have multiple projects with conflicting version dependencies.

What a bummer. Thanks for the link.

Out of the loop, what acquisition?

Are there any recent Android models that have native call recording enabled in EU?

I will root the phone if necessary, but considering that Google is closing the platform down even more by making custom/rooted ROMs fail security checks, I would prefer to avoid that.

VPS encryption (self.linux)

How would you protect files of a VPS (Virtual Private Server) from snooping by the service provider?

 

Many projects ask to share lots of logs when reporting issues. It's difficult to go through all the logs and redact informarion such as usernames, environment variabled etc.

Any ideas on how to anonymize logs before sharing? Change your username to something generic?
