Git = bittorrent

GitHub = the pirate bay

Code = content

Even that’s not the perfect analogy but it’s better than the OP.

I fuckin hate cops as much as the next person but people love to spout this fact, but there is literally only 1 police department ever that has been documented doing this, and it was the one police department in Connecticut.

However the court did in fact rule it was legal, yes.

But the way everyone talks about it you’d think this was some super widespread policy that many departments use. And as far as I can tell there’s only ever been the 1 example. It’s the same case that every single article about it refers to.

Every time you’re excluding something you’re excluding updating a package, while updating all the others. Then if the new packages depend on the newer version of the package you didn’t upgrade by excluding it, things break. That’s what’s happened here. Every time you use exclude to upgrade something you’re essentially breaking your system worse. That’s what the other person means by “partial upgrading”

And now that message says it’s going to completely remove your desktop environment so you’re gonna have no desktop, just a cli shell.

At this point the easiest thing would probably be to back up your home directory and whatever else you want to keep and just reinstall the system. Any other process to try and fix it is going to require more trouble and time than it would take to just reinstall unfortunately. There may not even be a way to successfully unbreak your system.

He still added bike lanes that weren’t there before no? How is that harming personal non-car transit? Maybe go to city council meetings and ask that double parking in bike lanes be enforced. I would certainly think the city wants to make money from fines.

Also how many people are riding around on rollerblades? The “hexagonal bullshit” makes the bike lanes distinct and noticeable increasing awareness and also gives tactile feedback if a driver starts driving on the bike lane. Yeah it sucks for skateboarders but the tradeoffs are worth it, especially because again, how many skateboarders are there really? Some municipalities don’t even allow skateboards in bike lanes because the drastic speed difference between them and bikes tends to cause issues.

Could the bike lanes be better? Absolutely, they could be actually protected bike lanes like you pointed out but don’t let perfect be the enemy of good, they don’t “suck”. And 0 pedestrian deaths over the span of a few years is very very good.

Nero’s Soundtrax application, bundled in the Nero Multimedia Suite, is capable of encoding and decoding this format into several others.

If you’re willing to run a windows VM you could probably convert them back to normal MP3s.

Ah yes the good ol’ LPT ports. Back in the days of pin printers and them catching on fire. Good times.

Lol you are the only person with a brain in this thread. This entire service they’re advertising sounds like a scam.

People really think these apps are bypassing the Android OS protections that show the microphone icon when the mic is listening?

And what apps are widespread enough that it can capture a wide enough range of people to target the things their customers would want while also not getting discovered or someone working for the app disclosing it?

None of this passes the sniff test.

Oh that’s pretty nifty, thanks for the comment. Sorry wasn’t trying to minimize the tool, I was simply referring to the orchestration/config management aspect of it when I looked it up real quick.

I used to be responsible for configurations of 40,000 (yes forty thousand) VMs for a large company using puppet and then later using Ansible and that was an interesting challenge. I’ve been out of the configuration management game for a few years now though so I’m pretty out of the loop. Was familiar with spacewalk back in the day too.

I’ll have to check Uyuni out, thanks for sharing!

And yet it’s still important to strike down their bullshit reasoning so that normies can see the argument for what it truly is.

Instead of indiscriminately bombing thousands of people, maybe send in troops to clear out the areas they’re concerned about?

I dunno why this is some crazy unthought of idea?

Hibernation into swap files backed by Btrfs are now supported.

I know Btrfs people have been waiting for this for quite a while.

Can’t steal something you don’t own. And people should never forget you don’t own anything on these platforms.

The days of everything having a 30 pin adapter. What a wild time.

A Russia apologist, Surprise Surprise. I’m shocked, shocked I tell you…

It’s amazing, and there’s a reason Firefox has had it as the default for years.

They think that any resource required for life should not be bought and paid for. Which I agree with to some extent.

But have this same attitude about “you can do whatever you want” in a survival situation, Im leaving your ass to starve if you don’t contribute and are capable of doing so.

IMO there is a difference between “being able to explore professions and skills you want” and “being a complete drag on society who contributes nothing.” and some of that nuance gets lost in posts like this IMO.

Seems it just runs Salt/Saltstack?

Corporations already do hold onto buildings without using them. Because typically real estate goes up in value, especially when there’s scarcity, which there will be if corporations are holding property. This isn’t the solution you think it is.

There are apps which offer user specific filters. I highly suggest switching to one. It’s made my lemmy experience much better.

Unlike the rest of our legal system that presumes innocence by default, IP law does the opposite.

The criminal legal system is built on the presumption of innocence. The civil legal system, which the DMCA falls under, certainly does not put presumption of innocence first in MANY circumstances.
