Also they’re using “Packerl” for package that’s probably Austria. Maybe Switzerland it’s not like I’m a specialist in mountain gibberish.

As a native speaker of mountain gibberish I can tell you that’s not ours. Either Austria or maybe Bavaria. Their gibberish seems similar to me sometimes.

I think it’s Austria. “Packerl”

The size difference is not significant. This is about the maintenance burden. When you need to change some of the code where CPU architecture specific things happen you always have to consider what to do with the code path or the compiler flags that concern 486 CPUs.

Here is the announcement by the maintainer Ingo Molnar where he lists some of the things he can now remove and stop worrying about: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/

The title isn’t very good. The Bundesamt für Verfassungsschutz (BfV, Office for the Protection of the Constitution) found the party AfD to be “proven right-wing extremist”, not the far right in general. The BfV doesn’t look at parts of the political spectrum, they look at specific organisations.

Other parts of the far right are evaluated separately. The party NPD was almost banned before (only didn’t happen because the court ultimately found they were too small to be a danger to the constitution). “Der III Weg” and “Identitäre Bewegung” are evaluated separately. “Die Rechte” was evaluated separately but recently disbanded.

This sort of precision is important, because it shows that there is an orderly process in defence of democracy happening, and not just a random repression of viewpoints as Rubio would have you believe.

Or they could just have been infected. Especially the ones on Windows 8, which has been EoL for over a year.

Hey OP, regarding Minecraft: It’s a Java program that uses OpenGL for rendering. Therefore it’s not a Windows game, but inherently cross platform. Here’s the official .deb package https://launcher.mojang.com/download/Minecraft.deb

the school’s IT

I wonder if that even exists. A mix of Windows 8 (EoL) and 10 (almost EoL) running on Haswells with students freely installing Roblox… all gives an unmaintained vibe.

I like how their release announcements always kind of read like press releases. Even when it’s just the third maintenance release for some normal release train.

If you’re not informed and take Trump at his word, I can see how you might end up thinking the tariffs were a country-to-country transaction, like literally China paying the USA.

In that case you wouldn’t necessarily arrive at the conclusion that the cost has to be passed on, along the value chain.

But on the other hand I don’t have a good track record of estimating what uninformed people who don’t care to seek information think…

I didn’t see any image credit for the bunny picture or the other rodent with the hood. So I don’t think the original creator’s credit was removed, only some remixer who didn’t give credit lost his unjustified watermark.

You’re not alone in this:

When Debian upgrades to this kernel version you might run into the issue again. Unless there is a fix deployed before then.

I wanted a mainstream option but not Ubuntu, and one that was preferably offered with KDE Plasma pre-packaged.

So I ended up deciding between Debian and Fedora, and what tipped me to Fedora was thinking: Well SELinux sounds neat, quite close to what I learned about Mandatory Access Control in the lectures, and besides, maybe it will be useful in my work knowing one that is close to RHEL.

Now I work in a network team that has been using Debian for 30 years, lol. Kind of ironic, but I don’t regret it, now I just know both.

And fighting SELinux was kind of fun too. I modified my local policies so that systemd can run screen because I wanted to create a Minecraft service to which I could connect as admin, even if it was started by systemd.

2. Ah that makes sense then. I was confused why you would wipe your ESP over and over when it was shared.

I don’t know why it comes off as hostile, it wasn’t intended that way. Sorry for not expressing it better!

If the last sentence came across badly, that was more meant to be incredulous that people accept all these workaround instead. There are other comments in here that go to ridiculous lengths to enforce separation, like using the UEFI boot menu to select a disk manually. To me even having two ESPs seems overly cautious, and against the design philosophy. Sharing one ESP is really not an issue (at least as long as you know you’re doing it, as you unfortunately found out the hard way).

First of all: You don’t have to reinstall Windows to get it’s bootmgr EFI and supporting files back into the ESP. Installing those from the CLI in from a booted install media is possible, I did it before. You can even install all of Windows manually if you ever need to, it’s just annoying to do with the windows command line tools.

Secondly: I’m not familiar with all distro installers, but surely you can just not format the ESP? Worst case scenario you’d have to use manual formatting I guess, but it’s not that difficult.

Thirdly: You said Grub doesn’t show the disk. If you mean the Grub command interface didn’t show the disk, then the issue is deeper, at a UEFI or hardware level. If you mean there are no boot entries for a Windows install to be selected, then it could be that they were not generated because the Windows bootmgr EFI was not found when Grub got installed. Sometimes just booting back into Linux and running os-prober again might be enough, if the Windows bootmgr EFI is still around. On my distro the os-proper is automatically run when I run grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

I’ve always used a shared ESP for my dual boot systems and I certainly don’t reinstall one OS as the result of a change with the other.

I’m using Libre Office at my job. Whenever I can get away with it I use the open document format as well.

Looks okay to me. Not sure how important the last two are to be honest, but I included them for completeness

The marketing statements on the website say the right things too, but they are secondary to the above, obviously:

Openness

OpenCloud is and remains open source software. This means that you can download and use the source code free of charge and without obligation. We welcome and encourage any kind of participation in the work on OpenCloud in the spirit of open source collaboration.

OpenCloud GmbH also offers paid builds of OpenCloud for use in environments where support, professional services and other services are required.

Who are we?

OpenCloud GmbH is a young company founded under the umbrella of the Heinlein Group and employs a team of developers who are familiar with the project code.

The combination of the Heinlein Group’s many years of experience in the open source business and the unwavering enthusiasm of the developers, most of whom have many years of open source experience, provides the perfect foundation for an active project. And we warmly invite everyone to join us!

The foundation

The basis of the project is a fork of a widely used open source project whose components are co-developed by developers from the science organization CERN and other active participants. OpenCloud is now being continuously developed independently by the OpenCloud community and published under the Apache 2.0 and AGPL-3.0 licenses.

In the spirit of reusability of code under free licenses, we are grateful for the strong foundation on which we are building.

Found it on Twitter… but I guess that doesn’t help.

Maybe it’s easier to download, but I haven’t tried from either site before. I’ll drop the link in case anybody wants to try.

Since you didn’t link the video, here it is on reddit.

I can see the headbutt, it’s at second 12.

Still an insane overreaction of course, but the truth is important.

I don’t get it. If your position is that a temporary downturn is necessary then the question seems very sensible. And somehow Trump says it is necessary but asking about the maximum extent he’d go for is very stupid?

Ha look at that, it’s the same way I’m looking at people dropping the “c” from a German “sch”
