No need to be an ass about it. For those who don't want to sift through an article, the RPi Foundation apparently hired an ex-cop who had been known to use their products to conduct surveillance, and that caused a controversy.

Sir, this is a Wendy's.
That KDE Plasma 5 is finally usable and stable, after having decided to stop pushing the ridiculous plasmoids on the user [...] is like having an old whore finally becoming a respectable woman.
Yeah, I stopped reading here.
Presumably Plasma 6.0, which will fix a large number of remaining Wayland issues via Qt 6.
It's actually quite rare for organs to be able to be donated upon death. The donor needs to either be brain dead but clinically alive, or otherwise the organs need to be harvested very rapidly following death or else they will deteriorate past the point of being viable for donation. So, donating a kidney now would ensure it goes to a person in need, whereas being a registered organ donor and hoping the circumstances of your death will facilitate organ donation will give them about a 1% chance of going to someone.
macOS 10.14 has been EOL for more than 2 years now and basically every Mac released since 2012 is compatible with 10.15. Valve also didn't actively flip a switch and disable functionality; they're just no longer providing updates. I don't think Valve shoulders any blame in this specific case - it's unreasonable to expect any company to indefinitely support platforms that are effectively obsolete.
I assume it's a garbage disposal, I've never heard the term either though.
Are you actively in a relationship with her? If not, then don't. Love and infatuation (which I honestly don't mean any negative connotation by) aren't the same thing, and telling someone who you're not dating that you love them is almost always going to be unwelcome.
Ugh, not this again. I'm very adamantly against piracy and I've personally dumped every one of my Switch ROMs from games I physically own, but these kinds of stunts make me want to pirate Nintendo games purely out of spite. Hopefully this gets thrown out or otherwise resolved quickly. The issue of clean room emulators has been tested before and found to be fair use and to my knowledge there's no legal precedent for Nintendo's claims.
Lossy sort
I think you're seriously overestimating the number of people who would actually benefit from that ease of use.
To your point, I think he also said "deathcon 3".
It appears to be a rule against posting food made from animal products. As someone who doesn't eat animal products myself, I don't particularly enjoy scrolling Reddit or Lemmy and seeing a picture of a meat dish, but it doesn't ruin my day I would never dream of demanding a content warning for it.
To my knowledge CWs are geared towards content that has the potential to trigger past trauma, and I can't understand how a food category could be so broadly traumatic to someone (outside of EDs I guess, which is obviously not the focus of this rule).
The Moscow Times is actually now headquartered in Amsterdam and has been banned in Russia. I wouldn't exactly consider it to have a pro-Russian bias.
The trouble is that "2 AM" now means radically different things depending on where in the world you are, and you lose any ability to be able to intuitively reason about the time in other parts of the world from you.
Except that's not actually an issue in practice. In a real-world conversation you would disambiguate with "Let's get breakfast" or "Let's get dinner" if you're not referring to the immediate future. I honestly can't think of a single time that I've been genuinely confused in this way.
Edit: Also, when would you ever make reservations for breakfast? Unless this is a joke that's gone over my head.
Maybe I'm mistaken on this, but I'm fairly certain the screenshot they describe as "Unity" is just a heavily themed GNOME. Also, I've never seen Xfce stylized as "XFCe." I realize that's not the point of the article, but just something that stood out to me.
It's a very slow moving project by design for better or for worse. There also hasn't been a ton of developer interest in the DE space in supporting it until the last few years since it would necessarily take resources away from other work, and generally X has been "good enough" until recently. I don't have anything to back this up but I suspect that the increased accessibility of gaming on Linux as well as HRR and HDR displays entering the mainstream had a lot to do with this renewed interest.
I looked it up and this is exactly right.
The whole concept of claiming that GNU is the actual OS never made much sense to me. Like yeah, glibc and coreutils are very major components, but so is the init system, and the package manager, and the WM, and the DE... I don't really understand why RMS draws the line at GNU arbitrarily other than to stroke his own ego. Following his underlying logic, shouldn't I call my system Plasma/KWin/pacman/systemd/GNU/Linux?
None of this is directed at you btw, it's just something that always springs to mind for me whenever this topic comes up.
You can "star" repositories on GitHub. I believe this has always been a feature.
Yeah, the stereotype drives me nuts. Like, yes, food is a big part of day-to-day life and sometimes I need to explain when asked why I'm not eating if there's nothing for me at, say, a company event. I try to avoid it as much as possible and just say I'm not hungry.
My uncle-in-law is convinced that the CCP is sending spies and sleeper agents in droves across the border. There's just no way to reason with this level of delusion.
Did you really make an account just to post this comment?
Calling it now, 2024 will be the year of the Hurd desktop.
Ethics may not be fully objective, but claiming that they're fully based on emotion is a ridiculous thing to say. You can make ethical arguments based in reason. Pointing to the war and saying "see, ethics aren't real" is an incredibly naïve conclusion to draw.
Wow, I didn't even realize there any consumer-grade (or dev-grade I guess) RISC-V boards available. Really cool news!
Their black coffee isn't great, but their espresso is good which is what makes it into the sugary drinks. I think the main draw is that it's pretty consistently decent, while with other chains like Dunkin or Wawa you're never quite sure what you're going to get but it's probably not going to be that good. I'll also add that the coffee they sell at grocery stores isn't bad (although it's far from my favorite). I think it's much worse at Starbucks itself because it inevitably ends up burnt pretty shortly after it's brewed.
As far as price, it costs $2 because that's the price that Starbucks determined maximizes profit. From what I've seen at other coffee shops though including Mom and Pop ones, that price point is pretty typical.
Tommy Lee Jones says this in Men in Black, no idea if it was coined before that though.
What the hell is your problem?
Yes, enhanced security is pretty much the entire pitch of Rust. There wouldn't be any reason for it to result in performance enhancements, though.
Somewhat ironically, this article reads a lot like it was written by a generative AI.
It's essentially the commercial version of Wine (although I'm definitely oversimplifying). It's developed by the same company, CodeWeavers.
Was that the infamous Toy Story 2 incident?
Idc, just please don't call me a coder, it makes me sound like I'm a script kiddy.
They still have a 6-seat lead, and even if two or three resignations follow they'll still have a 1-seat buffer on party-line votes.
When these tests are conducted are they typically sent from an email with a non-company domain? I ask because a few months ago my partner received a test which she failed because it was sent from an email under her company's normal domain name. I'm not in IT but I am in software dev and I thought this was pretty unreasonable, since in that scenario (AFAIK) either the company fucked up their email security or the attacker has control over the Exchange server in which case all bets are off anyway.
China owns Apple
???
Yep, Alpine Linux does this as well.
So You Want To Abolish Time Zones
In a nutshell:
Before abolishing time zones:
I want to call my Uncle Steve in Melbourne. What time is it there?
Google tells me it is currently 4:25am there.
It's probably best not to call right now.
After abolishing time zones:
I want to call my Uncle Steve in Melbourne. What time is it there?
It is 04:25 ("four twenty-five") there, same as it is here.
Does that mean I can call him?
I don't know.
