Well, there’s REISUB https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key

I see, makes some sense

Shouldn’t it at least be (potential yearly wage*50 + potential pension) adjusted for inflation?

My shitty napkin calculations puts that at about 750k, which still isn’t a lot, but a helluva lot more than he actually got.

$7.5 * 40h * 45weeks * 50years = lost wages = 675k Wages * 0.1 = pension = 67.5k

Hello, fellow SN enjoyer! That’s where I first heard it as well

They were revealed to brag to ad sellers about having access to tons of sensitive information about its customers, by spying on e.g. ambient conversations through smartphones and smart TVs, right?

Or was it them who requested customers install an xfinity root certificate on their phone, without telling it would enable xfinity to man-in-the-middle all their internet activity?

Funny, it’s almost like fucking around with peoples’ privacy and security inevitably leads to finding out

I’m not a native English speaker, so there may be some nuance I miss out on. But as far as I can tell, the implication of what you wrote was

• “Cuba is isolated because it wants to be”
• “Doctors are fleeing Cuba in large numbers”
• “Conditions are bad in Cuba”
• “The US gets alot of doctors from abroad”

I have good knowledge on point 1, limited knowledge on points 2&4, and somewhat decent info about point 2. I’m not disputing points 2,3&4.

It’s very misleading to say that “Cuba is keeping itself isolated”. Each year the UN votes to end the embargo/isolation imposed on Cuba by the US, with the vast majority of countries voting in favour of ending the blockade each time.

In the latest vote, in November, only Israel and USA voted against ending the blockade. Ukraine abstained. 187 member states voted in favour of ending the blockade

Make no mistake, the US is what has kept Cuba unjustly isolated for the past decades. Source: https://news.un.org/en/story/2023/11/1143112

The US sees anything that could shake their narrative of the world as a threat, even when that ‘threat’ is unfounded, and they massively abuse their economic and military power around the globe to keep others in line.

That’s unfortunate. I’m not sure what the situation is at your location, but here in Norway literally every type of work from cleaning shores, through industry and even CEOs, have their respective union. So there might be a relevant union for your workplace, still. Safety for the employees lies in numbers.

In the short term though, I’d recommend reaching out to a local/regional union-of-interest, like a “disabilities-in-the-workplace” watchdog organization.

Your boss&CO sound willing to infantilize you, if it becomes a case, so solid evidence of their conduct is important. though let’s hope your emails solved it, and makes them realize their wrongs.

Keep recordings of all work meetings the coming year

• keep your phone in your pocket, make sure your phone mic is pointed in the right direction, and test sound quality beforehand. Garble is not useful for anything.
• if possible, you should have a ‘panic’ button sequence on your phone, to hide/stop recording.
• do not admit you have faults not caused by your condition, on tape!
• You have the right to know who will be part of a meeting, and what the meeting is about, beforehand. They can still spring a meeting on you, if they don’t care.

Are you in a union with your coworkers?

If so, if you get called into any (non-open-to-everyone) meetings the coming weeks/months, make sure your union rep is right there with you.

If not, you should unionize

Hallais👋

Oh shit it Dutch? Didn’t intend to offend, friend.

I can usually kinda tell what a Dutch text says (am norwegian), but this time it was particularly difficult

That gen’d? Looks neat apart from text

Definitely the transition from QT5 to QT6. It Looks identical, but has better wayland support and performance.

There are also a few new and hot features which I can’t recount at the moment (it’s 4:30 in the morning), but the pointieststick blog should have the droids you’re searching for

Niceeeee! I’ve tested a few KF6 apps in a rawhide+nightly copr distrobox on Kinoite, and they’re quick

Thanks, TIL!

I’m working on free software to do real-time translation of speeches at conferences and such, from Norwegian to English or {insert language}.

Using Whisper and TTS on a server, and a web interface accessed on the participants’ smartphone/device.

True, although this can be alliviated by working in a worker-owned cooperative business

You can download configuration files (wireguard preferably) from your protonvpn account in a web browser.

Open the network manager (idk what steam mode uses, this should work in desktop mode) and add a wireguard connection.

Add the private key, add the peer and its public key, add the dns. Save.

When you need it, simply connect to it like a regular network, in addition to your wifi of course.

This has served me well on Fedora Atomic workstation with KDE for years :)

I’ve also used a pinetime running infinitime for the past year, and I agree that it’s not exactly feature rich. I like it though.

I’ve heard that ‘bangle.js’ is an open source watch as well, with a decent feature set.

Hurray! So much land was lost to too few hands the pas centuries, particularly under the military dictatorship
