You know what's funny? It's not the independent repair shops stealing your data, it's the "official" ones. https://www.theverge.com/2021/6/7/22522560/apple-repair-multimillion-iphone-nude-photos-privacy-settlement-pegatron

Those "bootleg" screens often are genuine, but Apple makes features not work unless paired. You can literally swap the screens of two fresh out of the box iPhones and they won't work. Swap them back, they work fine. Don't defend their practices, and don't believe the lies about repair they've been feeding you for years.

In France. They standardized the designs so each one isn't a one-off and they trained more people to work in the field.

Imagine paying for Windows. What a waste of money.

Just use whatever distro Stallman does, you'll be fine. If it's good enough for him, it should be good enough for you.

Try the other UI layouts, like the notebook bar. LO can look pretty close to MS office if you change the settings some.

For the window corners thing, meta+left or right should let you move it to somewhere you can grab it.

This is correct. You can also omit the parentheses on the function call in Lua if the only argument is a table or string literal.

Uhh, I was referring to the new ones France has been building, not the old ones...

What about a web server or a file server? Both are very much on-demand, so they're chock full of idle time. Even NextCloud has a ton of idle time.

Edit: As an aside, I love your profile pic, it's a cool wizard :)

Industry gives off greenhouse gasses that cause more sunlight to be trapped. It also gives off aerosols that reflect the light before it gets there, but those are in lesser amounts. This proposal is to release more of those aerosols into the atmosphere to counteract the effects of global warming. "Blocking out the sun" is just a clickbait headline. Read the article.

I think you're mixing up "You shouldn't do this" with "you shouldn't be able to do this". The former is common in Linux, the latter is not. No one is advocating for the latter.

I love the Lua one because it's so true, LuaJIT is magic and Mike Pall is the only one who understands it as its creator.

If I recall correctly, the desktop right click menu was one of the things they fixed in Plasma 6, actually.

Heh. "Guy" has some interesting history. It originally referred to Guy Fawkes, because that was his name. Then it came to mean any person, gender neutral, then it became any man, now gendered, but the neutral definition never went away, so we have both meanings floating around still, but the original meaning, an effigy of Guy Fawkes, died.

(I skipped a few steps in there because they're not relevant between guy Fawkes and any person)

What is the capacity of the Vegas loop as compared to, say, an extra small subway or even an aboveground streetcar?

So, I think it depends on what you want out of the tag system. If you want it to be a global tag that tags a post similar to how they're used on tumblr or something like that (I.E: Has meaning not specific to the community it is in), that should be separate from per-community tags, like they're done on reddit.
I think per-community tags should definitely be added, similar to how reddit does them (for a good example of how they are used, see /r/talesfromtechsupport). Global tags, I'm not as sure, and if they are added, I think they should be separate from the per-community ones.
My hesitation for the global tags is that it will create meta-communities, similar to what happens on tumblr, which blurs the line between communities, which makes moderation a little weird.

Storing an AST would be interesting, but it'd require the IDE to support parsing each specific language, so you'd probably want something like an LSP but for just parsing to handle that.

I have it set up. Try the AIO docker image. Once you get it set up, it pretty much just works. You just pick which office suite you want, check a few optional features if you want 'em, and it handles the rest for you. Most importantly, the AIO image is from nextcloud. They test it, it always works because it is the blessed version from them. If you're not a Linux guy, don't try the other installation methods, they're much, much more difficult.

Given the short distance it goes and the fact that it has human drivers currently...I'm doubtful it's going to scale at all. In its current iteration, a small train would have been better in just about every way. I wouldn't praise it for what it will be, praise it for what it is, because Elon Musk loves to promise the moon and stars and not deliver on those promises.

Oh no, the manufacturer of any computer with a windows license paid for it and passed that cost to you. You paid for it.

I think that is a useless mental model. It doesn't help you make decisions except those that lead to revolution. The person you're replying to is trying to point that out. If I want to buy a phone, which should I buy? Your rhetoric says "whichever one will lead to revolution", which really isn't helpful.

An easy start would be Firefox + tree style tabs + auto tab discard, that way you can have your 500 tabs and keep only N loaded (you choose N).

https://kotlinlang.org/docs/maven.html That's not true, you can use Maven if you want!

Okay, that one is hard to grok either way. Confinity and x.com merged, the resulting company, still Confinity, made Elon the CEO, where he was 6 months later fired for incompetence. Elon was the founder of x.com, but not Confinity, so it's more about how pedantic you want to be than anything else. Did the Confinity people found paypal, was it Thiel, under whom the name paypal came about, was it Musk? There's not really a clear answer one way or the other.

Cargo is really simple, which is great, but also limiting. Maven is much more complex, but for good reason - there's use cases, especially around multi-artifact projects and version sharing, where cargo would require either some glue or you run into some interesting edge cases. Usually, Rust isn't used for the kinds of big, wacky projects with a million dependencies that companies write in Java/Kotlin, so those kinds of use cases are considered more unusual.

Gradle, in my opinion, makes itself complex because it's all code, is very brittle, and several of its features just don't work right and require workarounds. When it works, it builds fast and it works well, but getting it to work, and how often you have to get it to work again...not worth it.

Yes, but you, who I assume follow this mindset, do buy things under capitalism, since you must in order to live. How, then, do you decide?

I'm more talking about laptops, you can use it without paying for it on a device you build yourself, albeit with some functionality restricted.

I really wanted Wayland to work for me. I just bought a new ASUS laptop (and ASUS has a great Linux compatibility track record, mind you!), 7th Gen Ryzen+Radeon, all AMD. I figured, let's use Wayland on this one.

I installed KDE Neon, updated the kernel (some stuff is broken on the LTS kernel, no big deal, easy fix), switched to the Wayland session, everything was fine...until I opened any chromium-based app. Crashed kwin, killed the session completely, it recovered, but in a new session. Switched to X11, everything works. Maybe if I grabbed a newer mesa from a PPA it would work, but:

1. Crashing the window manager killing the session is awful and doesn't happen in X11
2. Chromium shouldn't crash the compositor at all
3. Even if it's AMD's new graphics drivers being buggy, that still shouldn't kill the session!

And I know, technically KDE could (and afaik, is) implement session management so that doesn't happen. But to my knowledge, literally 0 WMs/DEs can recover the session after a compositor crash currently, and that's a big deal.

And LMG was supposed to do what about that? I get they've been shitty recently, but how can you blame them for the actions of their fans? They didn't tell their fans to do any of that stuff, they've told their fans to not do it on the past multiple times, what should they have done?

Do you have any evidence that there's a pervasive effort from third party repair to mine your privacy for profit? I'd love to see it.

Also, fine, let's assume they have no way of knowing it's genuine. Why don't they release the tool to pair the OEM screens publicly? It'd only work on the real ones, and they have such a tool, so if it's actually about security, there's no reason not to.
