Hey, thanks for pointing me directly to it. I wonder why there is so much noise about AI face detection when the core issue seems to be that pride is banned in the first place (and this is one way they want to enforce it).

Is banning Pride events as a whole legal under EU law?
I dual booted Ubuntu originally, but I never used it. Had to really make the jump when I installed Arch on my desktop in ~2020 because I heard it would run games better. I've stayed 100% on Linux since! After trying quite a few distros (Fedora, Debian, EndeavourOS, Garuda, Archcraft, more I'm forgetting) I have finally settled on NixOS... it's been over a year and I still haven't switched, that's gotta be worth something :)
Have you had a bad experience with canned peaches? I volunteered at a food bank a while back and we each had our station and gave out what people asked from that category (types of bread, fruits, etc). I don't recall seeing canned peaches or folks' reaction to them, but I'll be on the lookout next time!
I'd like to read about this, but I don't see a URL? Is it just this image?
Never heard of FuriLabs, looks really cool. How open is the OS/hardware? Could be my next phone... though I'd love to see an immutable approach so I can't be left with a broken system after an update.
The article is good, however I'd really appreciate having fedi-style content warnings on AI-generated images. I don't interact with mainstream social mediums so I generally do not see it, however in the thumbnail and contents of the article there are some quite disturbing images and videos that I'd have chosen not to see (description is enough) given the choice...
Good point.. I tend to give family members Flatpak-based distros like Fedora for the nice app store experience, but I guess if you can get past the scaryness of test editing and rebuilding with a console, NixOS does come with the benefit of having waaaay more packages and much easier rollback. My poor father trying to run nvidia drivers on Fedora Kinoite, who has to rebuild the kernel for every package install...
Does your wife install packages with NixOS? This is one of the few distros I tried (and now main) that I genuinely cannot recommend to anyone not willing to spend days learning the lang & concepts.
Awesome stuff :) I look forward to seeing a Wayland backend implemented, so Dolphin can join all the other emulators on the modern Linux desktop as it deserves.
Fair enough! I was discussing this with a friend who lives in Hungary and she was aware of the newish specific ban on "pride", but yeah as you said it is not a surprising or new rethoric for the country. Facial recognition is worrying though I fear regulating its use will be very difficult, and this is an important case for that which may impact all of the EU.
