I've been making my Quickemu project macOS-compatible; meaning it can run on a macOS host 🍎

Quickemu is a project to quickly create and run optimised Linux, macOS and Windows virtual machines 👍

Here's my test case in action:

This is NixOS ❄️ running a virtual machine of macOS Ventura 🍏 via Quickemu, which is running a virtual machine of Aline Linux 🐧 via Quickemu

The project is here: https://github.com/quickemu-project/quickemu

Please please PLEASE make it possible for me to have a virtual MacOS machine that just runs iMessage for those times I need to chat with my family 🙏🏾
Getting a new laptop from @frameworkcomputer in a week and itching to finally test NixOS out, but I’m coming from a MacBook Pro.

Hi! I'm back from RustNL! Taking it light today (definitely still exhausted) but I'm feeling ready for another . Let's take a look at the PRs that our community has made and reviewed for us this week :) There was a request to check the website repo, so let's start there! 9 PRs are ready, so that's a great call: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy-website/pulls?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Apr+label%3AS-Ready-For-Final-Review

Sometimes I need to watch a video on youtube.

Even if I quickly go fullscreen, there's enough time to be enticed by the algorithmically-addictive video on the side menu.

What browser magic can I most simply implement to hide the side menu?

There's an extension called "Redirector" which can pretty easily redirect links to Youtube videos to an Invidious instance of your choice instead with a rule like .*youtube.com/watch?v=(.*) -> https://invidious.flokinet.to/watch?v=$1 (set it to pattern type "regular expression" if you use that one.)

It's strange that the Invidious UI is so much better, but until Google improves their version I feel justified in doing this.

@itsfoss for the real year of Linux to finally come, there needs to be an effort to make GUI apps for most operations, now done in terminal, standard. I've used Linux for decades, and am more than comfortable with terminal, but most Windows users are not. It's fine to keep the terminal as is, but there needs to be a way for point-and-click people to be comfortable.

French chemist Antoine Lavoisier died in 1794.

He is best known for his development of the law of conservation of mass, which states that mass is neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions. This principle helped to debunk the phlogiston theory, which was a prevailing theory at the time that suggested substances released a material called "phlogiston" when they burned. He also made significant contributions in understanding respiration as a form of combustion.

Hand sketch engraving made by madamme Lavoisier in the 18th century featured in "Traité élémentaire de chimie" . Lavoisier performed his classic twelve-day experiment in 1779 which has become famous in history. First, Lavoisier heated pure mercury in a swan-necked retort over a charcoal furnace for twelve days. A red oxide of mercury was formed on the surface of the mercury in the retort. When no more red powder was formed, Lavoisier noticed that about one-fifth of the air had been used up and that the remaining gas did not support life or burning. Lavoisier called this latter gas azote. He removed the red oxide of mercury carefully and heated it in a similar retort. He obtained exactly the same volume of gas as disappeared in the last experiment. He found that the gas caused flames to burn brilliantly, and small animals were active in it as Joseph Priestley had noticed in his experiment. Finally, on mixing the two types of gas, i.e. the gas left in the first experiment, and that given out in the second experiment, he got a mixture similar to air in all respects. In his experiments Lavoisier analysed air into two constituents: the one which supports life and combustion, and is one-fifth by volume of air he called oxygen, the other four-fifths which does not he called azote. This latter gas is now called nitrogen. From the two gases he synthesised something that has the characteristics of air.

Navigating Online Class Accreditation and Legitimacy: A Comprehensive Guide
Introduction: In recent years, the landscape of education has undergone a significant transformation with the rise of online learning platforms. As more students opt for the convenience and flexibility of online classes, questions regarding accreditation and legitimacy have become increasingly prevalent. In this blog, we will delve into the nuances of online class accreditation and legitimacy, exploring what these terms mean, why they matter, and how students can navigate them effectively to make informed decisions about their education.

As students navigate the realm of online education, resources like Take My Course offer valuable assistance in managing academic responsibilities efficiently. Whether seeking help with coursework or scheduling, platforms like these provide personalized support tailored to individual needs, contributing to a smoother learning journey.

Understanding Accreditation: Accreditation serves as a crucial indicator of the quality and legitimacy of an educational institution or program. It is a voluntary process through which institutions undergo rigorous evaluation by accrediting agencies to ensure that they meet established standards of academic excellence and integrity. For online classes, accreditation provides assurance to students, employers, and other stakeholders that the education they receive meets recognized standards of quality and rigor.

For nursing students, accessing reliable academic support services such as Nursing Dissertation Help can be instrumental in achieving academic success. From crafting dissertations to refining research skills, these services offer specialized assistance that aligns with the unique requirements of nursing education.

The Importance of Accreditation in Online Learning: In the realm of online education, accreditation plays a pivotal role in establishing credibility and trust. Accredited online programs are recognized by employers and academic institutions alike, making it easier for students to transfer credits, pursue further education, and secure employment opportunities. Moreover, accreditation ensures that students receive a high-quality education that aligns with industry standards and best practices.

Evaluating Legitimacy: While accreditation serves as a key indicator of legitimacy, it is not the only factor to consider when assessing the credibility of an online class. Legitimacy encompasses a broader range of factors, including the reputation of the institution or platform, the qualifications of instructors, the availability of student support services, and the transparency of policies and procedures. Students should conduct thorough research and due diligence to ensure that the online class they choose is reputable and trustworthy.

Navigating Accreditation and Legitimacy: When exploring online class options, students should prioritize accredited programs offered by reputable institutions or platforms. They should verify the accreditation status of the program through recognized accrediting agencies and research the institution's reputation and track record. Additionally, students should look for indicators of legitimacy, such as qualified instructors, robust student support services, and clear communication channels.

In courses like Remote Collaboration and Evidence-based Care, where practical application is paramount, having access to supplementary resources can enhance the learning experience. Platforms offering collaborative tools and evidence-based resources empower students to engage actively in their studies, fostering a deeper understanding of course material and promoting academic growth.

Conclusion: In the rapidly evolving landscape of online education, navigating accreditation and legitimacy is essential for students seeking to make informed decisions about their academic pursuits. By understanding the significance of accreditation, evaluating the legitimacy of online classes, and conducting thorough research, students can confidently embark on their educational journey with the assurance that they are investing in a quality and reputable program.

why does @firefox have trackers like Adjust in it? that's rubbish from a browser that is supposed to be privacy and user friendly

I recommend LibreWolf instead of Firefox

d_k_bo,

FIY, the @firefox that you tagged is actually the lemmy community !firefox. If you mention the community on mastodon, it is rendered like a new post on lemmy. This looks weird and feels spammy for many lemmy users.

@bevy now has working groups! These are bottom-up initiatives that provide a space for contributors to collaborate and plan complex but scoped initiatives. To make one, you need 1) at least two other enthusiastic collaborators 2) the blessing of project leadership for the direction of your work.

Make a proposal, write-up a design doc (however you want), run it by the experts in the space and you're off to the races! I'm really keen to see these play out. We have five to start...

I just started my first day as a professional (well, engine dev) for @bevy.

Super exciting to have the bandwidth to start putting my plans into motion. I decided that I want to do a daily status update in engine-dev, and let folks track my current areas of focus using a GitHub project board.

Today was focused on laying out my priorities and tasks, then diving straight into the thorniest project management challenges we have (see below).
