I wonder how many of them are going to just defect?

All religious practices are ridiculous. Some are just more damaging than others.
Wut? How am I possibly mistaking anything?
Sorry, not eating meat on Friday is a “lived experience food safety practice?”
Just wait for the exceptions for “spiritual leaders” and government officials.
God doesn’t want you to mix fabrics or eat certain foods on certain days. “Confusing level of control” is on brand.
It’s not about making sense though. It’s about making you do what they want so that you know who is in control.
Yeah inheritance isn’t always the best solution. But even Java, the much maligned example for this, doesn’t do it for the i/o example you give.
They should be using organic locally sourced bullets made by Mom and pop weapons dealers.
As I mentioned in reply to another comment of yours, the main difference in my opinion here is that I am posting this as an individual one-man company compared to something like Oracle. And the Oracle free tier still requires you to sign-up and provide your data. This free version does not have such a commitment.
I don’t care who you are? Nor do I understand why that matters - it’s not you I dislike it’s your ads. You seem a decent fellow. The rules say “no spam” not “no spam unless you’re, like, a super-cool dude with an exciting new project!”
You’re welcome to create a xpipe@lemmy.world community for people who are interested in your product. It’s free to create and you can share all the up-to-date and exciting changes you’re making as much as you like.
You could also just downvote the posts you don’t want to see and move on, you don’t have to read my posts if you don’t like them.
I have. But this is never an effective strategy against fighting spam. Which is why I raised it as a question to the community.
Oracle’s cloud platform has an “always free” plan that self-hosters tend to use - yet I don’t think we’d accept Oracle posting monthly updates in this community. But maybe I’m wrong. Maybe this community should be for ads then?
If users were posting and discussing products that’s something else. That’s a community discussing things they find interesting or useful. Direct advertising is just self-serving. You can pretend it’s not - but we both know it is.
These XPipe posts have gone well beyond “I did a thing” and are starting to feel like I’ve subscribed for release updates that I can’t unsubscribe from for a product I will never use. So at this point it’s spam.
Edit: Well - I guess I could block you as a user - which I don’t really want to… But that seems to be the only option open to me.
That isn’t the question at all. It’s about whether we allow companies to market directly in this community. And apparently we do.
If you decided to devote all your time and energy to a project that was supposed to pay your bills, would you just sit and twiddle your thumbs thinking “if you build it, they will come”? ¯_(ツ)_/¯
No - I would shamelessly advertise it on every platform that let me. Which is what this person is doing. It’s a commercial product - they even call attention to that in their ad.
I would argue that all advertising is bad. This is a commercial product that the author has been sending near monthly updates to linux@ and selfhosting@ communities for some time.
At what point is this just advertising?
is the implicit suggestion that it’s fine to drive faster on weekends and during nighttime?
Yes. This is a classic “the exception makes the rule.”
There will be speed limits posted before and after this area with higher limits that apply at those other times.
I’ve always been uncomfortable lying to children…
I always take somebody’s opinion on HIPAA seriously when they misspell it.

I don’t think the networking part is part that needs solving. Modern AP/routers are pretty easy to configure and setup securely. Dunno - I’m definitely not in the target audience for what you’re doing though.
I was going to ask what was the exact wording of the question, but it’s a cross post from hexbear so I’ll assume nobody knows or cares…
