For those objecting to this it’s absolutely true. Fight Nazis, with guns when necessary, but do not be misled into believing they are wholly alien or inhuman. That’s how you end up living in the middle of a bunch of Nazis without realizing their Nazis.

Oh you know…

Using json for IPC but a binary format for log files sounds insane to me, but alright.

Yet both liberals and conservatives (in your sense of the words) say this.

For running applications: in addition to Flatpak (which is “cross platform” in that it works on most/all distros) there’s also Appimage. Appimage is the most like downloading a Windows application (technically it’s even more Mac-like) because you download a self contained program that just works. Not every application has a Flatpak or Appimage option, though.

I believe Xbox One controllers work if wired or fully Bluetooth out of the box, but if you use the dongle you need some software to handle it. I use “zone”, it’s kind of a pain to set up but honestly no more than (say) the Windows software to get PlayStation controllers working.

Protondb is primarily concerned with Proton, Valve’s customized version of Wine, so by default that means games run through Steam. (Of which there is a native Linux client.) If you want to use other games, ex ones that require EA’s launcher thing, then a tool to help make that happen is Lutris. It will help manage your games and launchers and customized Wine installs, including some automatic tweaks to make things work better (or at all). Steam gets official developer support for Linux so it’s generally the easiest experience.

Well there’s no way to fact check this so i guess it’ll have to stand.

Blue check on Twitter… Someone who’s paying $10/mo to the world’s richest person has an overinflated sense of importance… well… What’re you gonna do?

Technically i think the worst they could do would be to record your screen. (Barring some extra fancy exploits or something.)

That depends on how you speed it up. For example, the Covid vaccines were “accelerated” compared to normal vaccines but they did that by spending additional money to run the steps of the process in parallel. Normally they don’t do that because if one of the steps fail they have to go back and those parallel processes are wasted. For the Covid vaccines, the financial waste was deemed worth it to get the speed up of parallelization.

Communal housing world solve many problems.

It’s still actually pretty sketchy, depending on exactly what you want to do. Strict regex still won’t be able to match correctly if you want to match what an HTML parser considers the opening tag, though fancier regex will. If you’re just looking for the tags in the HTML document as a flat document it’s doable, though. (Mostly.)

I would say it’s more like: “How can I do X?” “Here are some reasons you can’t do Y.”

The answers should have been “Here are some reasons doing X is hard, but here’s an attempt at it anyway and also some more robust alternatives to doing X.” That would have been an excellent answer. (If you go down far enough you do start to see things like this but they’re hindered by people still responding that you can’t do Y or downvoting because they don’t understand what’s happening.)

They could turn on end to end encryption and the fact that they aren’t doing that is telling imo.

I don’t want to argue against mental health services, i think mental health services could be helpful. However, i do want to point something out here: saying this is a mental health problem really doesn’t make sense. You know a group that has mental health problems? Women. You know who else? Black people. You know who barely do any mass shootings? Either of those groups. We’re not (just) talking mental health issues, we’re talking about people who view “shooting up a school” as an appropriate way to resolve their social grievances. You can help that with mental health services, you can take their power away by blocking easy access to guns, but that’s a pretty big component here as well.

They just don’t like Harris and they don’t have any reason why that they can talk about in public.

I’d say “he’s gonna lie” is the free space on the bingo but there’s a lot of competition…

Signal is E2EE encrypted (similar to Telegram’s secret chats but probably better) so it’s less vulnerable. If people know about it they can ask Signal to ban you, but they can’t just passively spy on everything.

That said, XMPP is better still IMO.

(Edit: centralization isn’t as big a problem as you might think with Signal. The wealthy own the whole world now. You can’t set up somewhere outside their jurisdiction, you can only stay ahead of them as they force people to stop hosting you. Sending a takedown to Signal is the same as sending it to your hosting provider, do not fool yourself. )

I am not a lawyer but as far as I know: it super isn’t. It’s also illegal for compounding pharmacies to make, where I live.

Man, in lots of places the you can’t even get the name brand so at least there’s that.

I have heard, don’t know how true it is, that hospital pharmacies have first shot at the supplies so they’re less affected by stuff like this. For what that’s worth.
