The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

14·6 months agoAs a longtime FLOSS enthusiast, you have no idea how much I love that posts like this are still being made when dev teams get together for a sprint.
I know none of these people, but I like that this kind of spirit (including the kind that posts photos about it) is still such a part of our community.
2·6 months agoFor the record I wasn’t disagreeing with your point or criticizing it at all. Just trying to give some context that might explain what you were observing.
🙂
This would indicate its not a cut and dry as the youtuber suggests and also I would assume he is not a historian(no clue who he is) so its unclear why his opinion or definition of computer program should usurp that of most historians who would recognise a term may change over time and be less well defined initially when inspiring a new technology?
He’s a long-standing member of the tech pundit community (dare I say the Linux community), and in recent years has been exposed as antivax, anti-woke, and a bigot. Before that he was just a confident sounding asshole with sometimes interesting opinions.
Been there, had that conversation.
13·6 months agoI really dislike the implementation of virtual desktops in Windows compared to say Plasma, but it is there, and it gets the job done. I realize this doesn’t solve your other problems.

Win10 similar.
2·6 months agoI can’t say for sure. I think in at least some cases the blackouts are to support local cable tv, which we no longer subscribe to. I don’t think there tend to be games that can be watched only in person, but it’s possible I just don’t know.
Nothing gets you guaranteed hero worship and respect like being able to throw or kick a ball or similar in the US. The economics around it are unsurprisingly huge and complex, as everyone tries to be sure they get their piece.
Wait until you hear about how you cannot pay to watch all the NFL/NBA/MLB/NHL games in your market on a streaming service. Unless something has very recently changed, there’s no method of legitimately paying where you won’t still experience blackouts.
only to find out IRL he’s into lame shit like black capitalism.
Does it mean something other than what is here, or did I miss something offensive in skimming through the entry?
This isn’t one of those lame “now they are the machine” posts is it?
And yes, it is samba, but it’s the only thing I’ve used since it was set like that at default. Why would I look into other ways if it’s working just fine, exactly?
Nothing other than your own personal preference. Across a wide variety of contexts I personally find less headaches with SFTP, but YMMV. There are security and speed arguments, but IIRC there is a lot of variance to those arguments depending on how modern the SMB implementation is and how it’s config’d.
I have no idea why you can’t save your PW, I’ve done it this way since at least 2013, under several distros, on several different hardware setups, and have never had an issue having dolphin save my PW.
Are you in the “I disabled the KDE wallet because I wasn’t sure how to make it not annoying” crowd? It used to be much harder to work with. (I don’t even know if that’s the likely reason you have to keep putting your PW in, but I do use KDE wallet, and I never have to put mine in after initial setup in dolphin.)
Linux - Open Dolphin (or whatever) > Network > Add Network Folder/Find it > Enter creds > Does not automatically mount the drive when booting the computer back up > Must go into fstab to get it to automount > Stop, because that is ridiculous
I put into the dolphin path sftp://myusername@remoteip.address. Then I give it my password, and check the box to save it. Then I right click any folder in the destination and do “add to places” and in the future I just navigate to it like a local folder.
I guess I’m supposed to do it a harder way? I’ve done essentially the same but with smb:// when forced to work with a samba share like an animal.
84·6 months agoRemember folks, it doesn’t have to be the year, it only has to be your year.
Mine was about 19 years ago. I’m no genius, and I haven’t regretted it once. Linux has come a long way since then, while windows is deep in the enshittification trenches now, and has been for years. Your YOTLD can start today if you want it to. Tired of being actively abused by your OS? We’ve been here all along.
And if you are happy where you are, that’s fine too.
I’m so done, I’m out, forever.
Just out of spite I’ll be going windows again too
Hey this isn’t an airport, you don’t need to announce your departure.
I’m at about 19 years since switching - MS reaffirms my decision for me each and every year.
33·7 months agoHint: the reason it’s this way is that the elite control the media. If you’re fighting with your financial equals on the other side, then both sides aren’t getting together to fight the rich.
The focus of this cartoon is, I believe, an Austrailian(?) politician. I think it works though as “generic oligarch” or “Republicans.”
Don’t forget folks:
I can tell you that what I said is accurate with certainty.
It wasn’t my intent to argue with your experience, it just wasn’t the impression I came away with.
streamers were harassed, assaulted, doxed, stalked, and shut out from protests because they were creating evidence that was used to prosecute protesters doing crime.
Yeah I saw some streamers get in to trouble with some specific groups of protestors for that reason, but didn’t see it very often on the streams I was watching. I also listened to some interviews with Portland protestors on the Uprising podcast who felt that was a bit excessive, so didn’t think it was particularly widespread.
For example there is a protest right now in Los Angeles. News coverage exits, but no independent livestreamers.
