What's the problem with Moodle or Canvas? A lot of universities use one of these and usability-wise, they are fine.

I also take some used needles and a singular crack pipe and orderly lay them on the cigarette-burned rug. My family would say they really tie the basement together.

What's stopping banks from creating FOSS (or atleast open-source) banking solutions (apps)? in c/[email protected]

Are there any downsides to opening up the server-side code too? Would it also compromise other banks' security, since these banks need to interoperate?

What's stopping banks from creating FOSS (or atleast open-source) banking solutions (apps)? (fost.hu)
 

cross-posted from: https://fost.hu/post/226135

Let's say, I create a bank with the caveat that all of my banking phone apps and webapps are FOSS (or if they depend on non-free components — banks probably do to communicate with each other —, then just OSS). Am I going to be behind the competition by doing this?

If the most secure crypto algorithms are the ones that are public, can we ensure the security of a bank's apps by publicizing it?

Are they not doing this because they secretly collect a lot of data (on top of your payment history because of the centralized nature of card payments) through these apps?

EDIT: Clarifying question: Is there a technical reason they don't publicize their code or is it just purely corporate greed and nothing else?

3rd party discord client? in c/[email protected]

Check out Armcord. It's a 3rd party client with many customization choices (mainly due to the fact that it bundles Vencord and Shelter client mods).

What is your workflow on eBooks? Do you anotate them? Are there any open standards that are useful? in c/[email protected]

Jailbroken Amazon Kindle Paperwhite 2 with Koreader installed. Never really bothered to take notes while reading (let alone sync them), so I'm gonna follow this thread.

I download my books from Soulseek and manage/transfer them using Calibre.
