Doing it for personal use, without profit or gain, is supposedly illegal. Doing it for profit certainly appears to be legal.

It’s really shocking to me, from the US, that this is a compulsory fee and not a tax. It’s like they want people to hate and resent it. I guess it hurts poor people? IDK.

If the app is running on the same machine Windows is you haven’t gone far enough, that’s all i’ll say.

We saw a very sophisticated attack on Linux earlier this year with the XZ exploit. That stuff is terrifying and the sort of thing people should be worried about. SELinux is tame, by comparison.

sudo !!

Will also run the previous command with sudo, fwiw.

Yeah that telecommunications part is working out great right now, huh? Well, i guess we just gotta keep fighting them.

I had a very similar experience. Read about it. Mined a couple coins just to try it. Said “Well that’ll never go anywhere”. I think i still had them years later but by the time i remembered i couldn’t find where the wallet ended to. I think it’s gone, now.

Honestly this is very clarifying and we should be jumping on this as a tool to further understanding of our cause. Not because the shooter was one of ours but because support for him is common ground we can use to talk to everyone who we want to talk to.

I think, taking the leaked manifesto as legit here, the guy was aware of this. One of the lines basically says “it seems obvious we need to take matters into our own hands and I guess I have to be the first to do it”.

That said, i think this works because it’s not just propaganda of the deed. These masters of the world are still only human. They have manipulated the world so they get to decide what happens to who, when, and accept no input from anyone else. Well, when they use that power to cause millions of excess deaths it’s no surprise their victims will (eventually, after much patience) simply step outside the social contract to deal with them.

Maybe interpol doesn’t know China is straight up kidnapping people of the street in foreign (non-China) countries? Maybe they want to do something about that?

No?

Okay, then. Of course they’re prioritizing someone downloading some jpgs, why would i think differently?

Russia fucking sucks but this, at least, is true. (The West sucks too, don’t get me wrong. I ain’t going to Russia but i will use their search engine.)

That’s… not really true? Or at least i haven’t run into that problem.

As in Wayland yes. X does have color correction stuff, which is the most important part.

It’s kind of embarrassing they still don’t have this tbh.

If this guy could focus on what he’s good at and keep his damn mouth shut he wouldn’t be in this situation.

That is a flaw. Flatpak is great where it works but Flatpak doesn’t solve all problems, neither does any one solution except os level modification. It can be a last resort by it should be a last resort that works. The layering system could be put together such that you don’t get side effects of installing packages like that. It might be tough to fix but that doesn’t make it not a flaw.

Once you fire up a webpage it’ll just dump garbage all over the couch.

It isn’t, though. Package layering modifies the install itself. See: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-silverblue/getting-started/#_flatpak_command_line

The big problem with the way ostree works is that installing things has side effects. Every item you install with ostree makes all future items slower to install, including regular os updates. This is a significant flaw in the way they designed it and really makes immutable oses less attractive.

Immutable is fantastic in theory. Where it falls apart is having to basically rebuild the whole distro every time you want to make a change. It should be there your base distro is immutable, then any extra changes go on an additional mutable layer but that would be difficult to set up. (You’d need a package manager like Nixos or something.)

There are hundreds of Linux developers, including companies like Red Hat, Intel, IBM, Google, and more. You want all these people to up and move to… where? Somewhere. Russia, or a Russian ally presumably but hell if i know. Anyway you want them all to move so a handful of people working for Russian weapons manufacturing companies can keep maintaining pieces of the Linux kernel?

This is obviously a non-serious suggestion.
