And maybe more creators start using PeerTube as well...
This is a reference to an original star war movie poster, if you wonder why it looks familiar.
Well obviously... But as a German I must say there is no possibly to use PeerTube in any legally save way in Germany.
That is not the fault of PeerTube of course it's the fault of copyright mafia and German politics. Since PeerTube uses P2P to distribute load among all (which is extremely clever and should definitely not change), German law makes you responsible for anything you upload even if it's in a P2P manner. So if you just accidentally clicked on a video containing Copyright protected Material or illegal content, you are seen as contributor of this content with all consequences.
So imagine going to jail because you clicked the wrong video... This is as stupid as it sounds and needs to change. Sadly German public is not carrying about this enough. I hope PeerTube will become more popular one day so that people are confronted to this insane law more frequently.
This weird type of humor is something the fediverse still has to learn
I don't know any of these sides, but since "conservative" doesn't really have a real definition it's technically correct.
Since I think the answer is pretty much complete I just want to link you a tutorial/article giving a short overview and introduction:
https://www.pluralsight.com/blog/it-ops/linux-file-permissions
One more thing, always remember that for Linux everything is a file (a path, a program and well a file like an image) therefore everything can be restricted with this.
I don't know how realistic such concerns are but that does not explain why any discussion about this topic is suppressed. If admins of Lemmy world really have fears about this then it should be discussed wildly to show how far copyright mafia had made it.
TL;DR
There is a functionality in Mastodon that enables it to get verification from any other website (e.g. the website from the Washington Post or your personal website) that the specific mastodon profile is know by this website.
You are not verified by Mastodon or "the network" your verified by the external source.
My opinion: I still think creating and hosting your own mastodon instance for organisations like the Washington Post is the superior way for providing prove to people that these accounts are officiall (like German and Netherland government is doing it), but for smaller organizations or individuals that can be to much of an overhead.
This is just a guess but it could be that (re)setting the texture of an control node May also reset it's size since I think it tries to stick as close as possible on the original texture resolution.
Is the size a different when you set it to a different texture? Maybe the same image but with lower res?
From what I read technically "Android" is used as the most popular smartphone OS in China. But that's only because android is the foundation of costume Chinese OS that comes without any google services (nice) but is also highly restricted against side loading. Of course like always ways should exist to workaround those restrictions.
But to be honest getting information about all the restrictions people in china need to suffer from getting harder l with every day since they get encapsulated more and more.
I don't know if this was just a joke or you really mean it that way.
I would partially agree that there are a lot of similarities between Mao and Trump, but current situation in USA is nowhere near current situation in china.
In general I would recommend any Debian derivate for beginners that just don't care about how their computer is operating. So if this is really just a question regarding eight Fedora or Linux Mint then I would say Linux Mint because it's a Debian derivative.
That's simply because chances are high stat you will at least find a Deb package for any proprietary software you might want to use. Making it "easier" for the user.
If you install the system for your friend you're free to change the Desctop environment to everything you want.
