@SuperDicq @hfaust @phnt I actually have a different business idea I'm working on right now and starting too many projects while never finishing any of them is a problem of mine. So I probably shouldn't spend too much time and effort on planning this right now. But in the long term, I don't see why I couldn't manage this alongside something else, so I might come back to you on that. -

@SuperDicq @hfaust @phnt Getting a 100% free software server is definitely a goal but I would have no idea where to even put it. Definitely couldn't host it from home while still living with my parents who absolutely refuse to get faster internet and when I do move out, it's gonna be hard finding a place which even offers fiber in Germany. -

@SuperDicq @hfaust @phnt >I believe most people unfortunately buy hardware that is "free with minimum required blobs", such as Librem or Starlabs hardware.
Yeah, that's also mostly what I do. Except definitely more proprietary software than "minimum". Should get a more free machine and use that one when I don't "need" more performance or some non-free stuff. -

@SuperDicq @hfaust @phnt We don't have that many from the looks of it. Looked up the RYF page and there are 6 sellers and I can't reach one of their sites. Which is good news if you wanna be a seller with little competition. -

@SuperDicq @hfaust @phnt I would like to have such a shop. And I know I said it sounds like "easy money" but I actually think businesses should have some difficulties to set up or else you would have too much competition and it's too hard to break into the industry again. That said, I could always start small, have at least a product that's 100% free software, sell small batches and work myself towards RYF certification. -

@phnt @SuperDicq @hfaust I thought about making a business out of that. Sounds like easy money. -

@quad @lanodan But it gives you an excuse to call the Irish British, which is technically correct even in English but they will hate that. -

@lanodan @quad It's part of the British Isles, which is a purely geographical term. Doesn't make much sense having two big islands right next to each other and not categorize them in some sort of group. -

@lain @grillchen @kaia @cell I'm gonna assume some people are going to be double counted if they went back to their home country, then came back later. One of the reasons many business owners like to employ illegal immigrants is because they can treat them like shit and threaten to report them to ICE when they complain. Sometimes they will actually do just that. It probably won't make that much of a difference though. -

Are there any companies selling DIY kits for making your own computer like in the early days of personal computers? -

@icedquinn I mean, there is nothing stopping you from buying parts and assemble a PC. But that's not really a kit, is it? I'm especially interested in kits trying to emulate old hardware in one form or another. Maybe ranging in difficulty from stuff you just need to click together to kits which require soldering and extensive technical skill to assemble. -

@waifu That's peak artistic integrity. You only lose artistic integrity if you follow what others think, not your innermost drive. -

I guess I do want a job in tech. But I did kinda hate every tech job I had. We'll see, I might create the job I want. -

@Ree @SuperDicq @Kyonko802 Older versions are often sufficient. Devs wanting change for the sake of change also means having to always run the newest version. -

@Ree @Kyonko802 @SuperDicq Security patches are another thing, that's why we have "stable" branches and stuff like that. -

@Suiseiseki @SuperDicq @Ree @Kyonko802 As I said, it's a lot better than not being able to do anything. But it's not 0 effort. -

@SuperDicq @Kyonko802 @Ree Free software is good but you're not not immune to getting a little screwed because you now have to fix the thing that broke. That's a lot better than just having to suck it up when things change but you don't want to maintain every program on your computer yourself either. -

@SuperDicq @Kyonko802 I think software developers have an unhealthy tendency to change things for the sake of changing things. It even gets made fun of in xkcd 1172 but how a software works now is how users expect the software to work. Changing things will make it harder for them.
