Same here!

I’ve been looking into buying a Framework laptop for a while now. Does anybody know if they’re compatible with libreboot?

You’re asking people for their opinions only to correct them when they don’t agree with your own opinion. This is not how discussion works ;-)

Yeah me neither. I don’t think they understand the consequences of their own actions either. All that matters to them is “USA bad, <random pro Palestinian country> good”. They’d probably also burn down the fields in a country they import their food from.

First of all: Sorry to hear that, this sucks!

Regarding your digital information: I’d suggest you to get a new email and gradually replace the old one in your accounts to avoid spam. Even though they claim your password wasn’t stolen, I’d highly suggest you to change your passwords anyway, just in case. Also, as they say, be very careful about potential phishing attacks.

As for your personal information such as your address: I’m afraid there’s not much you can do. I’d argue, however, that it’s not as valuable to potential hackers. One potential scam involving stolen addresses is sending purchases made with a stolen credit card to your address and asking you to forward it. Don’t accept deliveries you didn’t expect for this reason (depending on your local law it may lead to criminal charges against you, even though you’re still technically the victim of a scam).

No Forking: You may not create, maintain, or distribute a forked version of the software. Lol 💀

It Feels Almost Like Android… But It Isn’t

So what is it?

I’d return a non-zero value so they know it’s their fault ^^

In my personal opinion: Yes. Wine is great and all, but in the end it’s an emulation layer that - in the worst case - requires a lot of tweaking. I personally wouldn’t want to spend that time so a VM sounds like a good option. But again, depending on the context (e.g. limited hardware resources or the amount of time available) you might be totally fine with Wine.

Shit gets weird when the guy in 418 opens and claims to be a tea pot…

That makes sense, thanks again! I think dynamic dispatch is not as much of a performance issue in my case, yet you’re totally right not to waste resources that aren’t actually needed. Keeping things on the stack if possible is also a good thing.

I’ll definitely need to read more about Rusts type system but your explanation was already very helpful! I think this might be why my initial approach felt unnatural - it works but is quite cumbersome and with generics there seems to be a more elegant approach.

Thanks for your input! I’ll have a look at both build flags and macros for sure! For my specific problem enums will do just fine I guess, but having an overview about the possibilities helps a lot!

Thanks for your reply!

Thanks for the advice! I didn’t know generic functions were preferred. But it makes perfect sense if you think about it.

Thanks for the explanation! I think just using an enum will do perfectly well in my case.

I’m able to speak German (native speaker) and English (fluent).

Also, as a German speaker, I’d like to correct the question in the post:

Formal would be “Welche Sprachen sprechen Sie?”.

More fitting for a casual environment (such as Lemmy) would be “Welche Sprachen sprecht Ihr?” though :)

This is, because in German there are formal and informal ways of addressing people, both with their distinctive pronouns. Usually, when talking to people you don’t know personally, you’ll address them formally and then, when offered to, switch to the informal style once you know them. Online or among the younger generation it is much more common to just use the informal case though.

Thanks for the tip!
