  • And there you go again deflecting. It was always going to be either a democrat or a republican that won. We would have had far more impact trying to negotiate with the Democrat than a Republican. Yes both candidates were bad. But one would have definitely been better. The one so many hyper focused on attacking. While not attacking the other in the slightest.

    My position looks as good as it ever did. I was right before. I was right during the election. And I’ve been right since the election. All people like you can do is silently downvote pyrrhicly. Or delusionally you create scenarios in which there’s a magical world in which I was wrong.



  • It may be your setup. I’ve used rustdesk to connect from an Intel with an Nvidia card to an Intel with an AMD card. And from an Intel to An Arm based raspberry pi. From my Android phone to all of them and from them to the Android phone. I’ve never had an issue.

    The thing to check out is if you have any firewalls enabled. Much like forwarding ports for remote X sessions. You will have to forward ports for VNC or rust desk




  • If all you read is propaganda you might think that. But that isn’t the case. It all started when imperialist Britain stole a large tract of land from the people living in Palestine to give it to people who had never lived there. And to add insult to injury. The newcomers sought to exclude the people who had always lived there. And turn them into second-class citizens in their own home. Causing them to rightfully Rebel.

    Israel has always blamed and othered the victim rather than doing the bare minimum to make things right. Ironic seeing what many Jews went through. Though most of the people responsible for founding the ethnostate of Israel didn’t go through the Holocaust themselves.







  • It’s not the reason, but it certainly is a reason.

    Another reason is. That it is an old protocol from the late 90s. And there isn’t a lot of Buzz about it these days. A lot of the problematic centralization we all now recognize was just becoming the norm.

    Feature parity at the time is also another big hurdle. Things we all take for granted especially in this day and age Avatar profile pictures etc. Jabber/xmpp did not have that for years. It may be a useless feature in terms of sending messages. people still like personalization etc. And it’s hard to convince people to switch if they have to give it up.

    Jump to today. And arguably services like Twitter Mastodon Facebook Etc all sort of fill that Niche to an extent. Maybe not as well. But enough again that it’s going to be hard to get people to switch to yet another system




  • Very likely.

    Both sides however have behaved badly and both have valid points. Brodie had a decent video on it. Though for me the BS DEI claims are beyond the pale.

    The Dev in question was pushing a number of breaking changes. Which yeah, if you’re pulling from git you’re gonna git bugs every once in a while. The problem is releases are so infrequent. People are pulling from the git and trying to use it for daily use. In order to get more up to date features. Some of the free desktop guys got a little too harsh with him. But then he sort of let loose with this whole Dei Etc psychosis. Which did him no favors.
