• Free Tyranny!

  There's obviously nothing stopping Parler from moving their application to another platform as they've clearly done so. In fact, in software development it's highly encouraged to not have "vendor lock-in". There's also nothing forcing Apple, Google, and Amazon to allow applications in their app store. In the case of Android, at least, the "main" app store isn't the only way to get an application on the platform. Source: over 1 year ago

• Systemd Rolling Out "run0" As sudo Alternative

  Good news! Run0 will use polkit[1], which uses JavaScript for its rules[2], so there's no limit on how complex your rules can get! On the other hand, maybe adding a JavaScript interpreter to Linux's trusted computing base isn't such good news...

  Apparently there are some stations which still have ticket gates, but I haven't seen any in the rather short time I've been in the Netherlands - they seem to be concentrated in metropolitan areas[1], and I've only been in the somewhat more rural[2] province of Limburg. As it happens, though, I have never actually used the OV-chipcard myself, as I always use an Interrail pass when travelling any further than... - Source: Hacker News / 5 days ago

• Systemd Wants to Expand to Include a Sudo Replacement

  Uh, depending on exactly how it's implemented, it could break a lot of things. If all you are using sudo on is a personal (i.e. Single user) laptop/desktop to install packages, this (along with other things like pkexec or doas) would seem to present no issues (and personally, from what I can see, I'd be happy to run `run0` on my personal systems!), but sudo does significantly more than that,... - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago

• Ask HN: What do you think about a subscription based social media?

  Oh, TIL about https://mastodon.social/ (https://joinmastodon.org/) Looks like what you describe, doesn't it? > Social networking that's not for sale. - Source: Hacker News / 6 days ago

• AltStore. The first Apple approved alternative App Store

  Getting some Qs about Delta availability, hope this clarifies things! • Delta is exclusive to AltStore in EU • Because of Apple’s new dev terms, all downloads in EU cost us €0.50/yr in AltStore PAL and App Store…so couldn’t offer Delta in EU App Stores without making it paid • App Store only supports one-time paid-upfront apps, so we’d have to pick a price that could support ~years of CTFs • PAL’s €1.50... - Source: Hacker News / 13 days ago
