brb I’m just going to take a few minutes to go through my records and see if any of my recent upvotes need revising in light of your latest comment.

Worst of all, root access is often granted to humans — a species known to be vulnerable to the most idiotic phishing scams you could imagine.

Debian is still the best at being Debian. I rate it the least likely to give me any unpleasant surprises.

Yeah making jam is quite easy. Basically just add some sugar and pectin and put it on the stove until it’s jam.

Otherwise, put them in the freezer.

If there’s a sign saying “do not feed the alligators” you can guess that it’s probably because they had a problem with too many people feeding the alligators. There’s no reason to ask if that means it’s okay to feed the crocodiles.

For a serious answer I suppose you’d need to read several books about the history of Israel and its relationship with Europe, the semiotic position of the term Zionism in contemporary political discourse, and methodologies for dealing with problematic topics in online communities.

But in short I’d say that the more evil is done in the name of Zionism, the more the name itself becomes perceived as synonymous with it, and there’s a lot of that going on these days.

I have only one strict rule: I see the Moomin comic, I upvote it.

arson, n. The crime of deliberately starting a fire with intent to cause damage.

The dictionary confirms my understanding that “unintentional arson” is a contradiction in terms. We must therefore find the defendant not guilty.

If you’re only going to watch one video this week about urban planning in Prague, this one is a fine choice.

Mostly I just install Skyrim mods manually because I’m insane I guess, but for some games I like to run Mod Organizer 2 under proton. Your whole linux filesystem can be made accessible to windows programs, not sure if it is by default. But anyway since we’re talking steam games here the game itself normally will be in the same place as usual, as far as windows programs know.

If they go through with this I’ll switch to Hannah Montana Linux.

Don’t do it at this time of year.

You’re not really living with as much free software as possible until you’ve installed all of the 103818 packages in debian.

For me it was when we all started having regular Satanic death metal sex parties, the left wing was pretty boring before that.

Translation is something the LLMs are pretty good at. It makes sense to use them for it, though obviously it should be a separate product and not part of Firefox.

The rest looks completely useless to me.

Is there even a single OECD government that’s firmly opposed to what Israel is doing, firmly opposed to what Russia is doing, and firmly opposed to fossil fuels? Asking for that doesn’t seem like too much.

Hm, someone claiming to be Vaxry says it’s real, it’s not April fool’s day, the link is to the domain that’s on their github page, it’s still up however many hours later… well that was unexpected.
