I don’t get it either, and what order are you supposed to read it? Does the title come first, or at the end?

I’ve never heard anyone say that Flatpaks could result in losing access to the terminal.

My only problem with Flatpaks are the lack of digital signature, neither from the repository nor the uploader. Other major package managers do use digital signatures, and Flatpaks should too.

OBS worked pretty well for me last time I used it, using the basic package Debian provided.

They should be more neutral in a non-opinion piece. They quote a lot more people saying pro-genocide things than they quote people saying anti-genocide things. They quoted pro-genocide politicians and pro-genocide BBC staff. They did not give the musicians any opportunity to respond to the article.

Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza has inflamed tensions around the world, triggering pro-Palestinian protests in many capitals and on college campuses. Israel and some supporters have described the protests as antisemitic, while critics say Israel uses such descriptions to silence opponents

Let’s consider the two positions mentioned in this paragraph:

1. Israel should stop committing genocide

2. Israel should continue committing genocide, and position 1 is antisemitic

The first position is described as “pro-Palestinian”, as if these protesters support the Palestinian military (Hamas) and want them to win. This is incorrect. These people mostly just want the genocide to end.

The second position is a shitty opinion, but also contains an overt falsehood. It’s an objective fact that it’s false, and that fact should be reported in the story, but it isn’t.

What a shitty article. It’s so heavily biased in favor of genocide.

Your post is blatant disinformation. Undocumented immigrants overwhelmingly vote not at all. Voting illegally in the US is difficult, and often prosecuted.

I live in the US. Most of the people I know are Democrat-aligned. None of them want undocumented immigrants to vote. None of them import undocumented immigrants.

First choice: 292 K

Second choice: 9 C

If we’re talking only outdoor temperature, third choice is 100 F, because air conditioning exists, and my peppers would thrive.

If it’s ambient indoor temperature too, then I pick 9 F, which is unpleasant, but survivable. At 100 F indoors, you will be constantly sweating for the rest of your life.

The cell membrane is the wall of the cell. I know it’s less catchy, but human cells don’t have a cell wall.

X11 has effectively already been deprecated for years, seeing little to no development on it. No one should be surprised.

X11 is complete.

Wayland is incomplete, and is missing essential features like accessibility and automation (ydotool will never have half the features xdotool has).

I haven’t used it in the last several years, but from about 2014-2018 any time I tried to download, it required registration, and any time I tried to register, it just didn’t work. It was some problem with the javascript in their site. Probably related to captcha or something. Yes, I tried multiple computers, multiple browsers, even tried registering on a library’s computer.

Looks like their site is less shit now, but it’s still awful.

I’m the person in the bottom right of this comic.

If you’re certain that only the housing of the connector has changed from old motor to new motor, and each pin inside the housing is the same, then I’d recommend trying a heat gun to melt the waxy adhesive, followed by poking around with a tiny flat screwdriver to unlatch the pins.

But if it were me, I’d just splice the wires. You will need heatshrink or at least electrical tape, a soldering iron, and solder. A good splice can easily handle more current than that little connector.

The first one I knew the model number of was the Macintosh IIsi. It had Mac OS 7. The only games were SimCity, and a few free games we got from a 1 hour free trial of AOL. The only programming language was Apple Script, and it didn’t work right (the sample programs didn’t run).

Mozilla, for example, would sign Firefox’s flatpak with a PGP key that they would disclose on their website. You verify the signature using the RSA algorithm (or any other algorithm for digital signatures. There are a bunch.) Or, you could just trust that your connection wasn’t tampered the first time, then you would have the public key, and it would verify each time that the package came from that same person. Currently, you have to trust every time that your connection isn’t tampered.

Major flatpak providers (Flathub at the very least) would include their PGP public key in the flatpak software repo, and operating system vendors would distribute that key in the flatpak infrastructure for their operating system, which itself is signed by the operating system’s key.

I don’t own this game, but twice I have switched positive reviews to negative for doing this.

Article doesn’t mention my biggest problem with flatpaks, that the packages are not digitally signed. All major Linux distros sign their packages, and flathub should too. I would prefer to see digital signatures from both flathub and the package’s maintainer. I don’t believe flathub has either one currently.

My problem with that theme is that it doesn’t highlight any buttons. I believe all buttons should have borders, especially the ones the titlebar. This helps distinguish a noninteractive label from an interactive clickable button.

This survey doesn’t distinguish between levels of cloud service provider, so I was a little confused.

Virtual private servers, cloud virtual servers (like AWS), cloud-based software where you provide code or a program and the cloud system runs it on a server of its choosing, and cloud-based systems where someone else provides the software (like Google Docs).

I literally cannot use a program that has AI crap integrated into it, because of data security rules in the contracts I have to follow. If I used Windows 11, I would have to never use Notepad, and find a way to remove Explorer. (Explorer creates the desktop icons and taskbar, so good luck with that.)

Windows 11 doesn’t even have a working file manager or text editor anymore. This is not a serious operating system.
