Zeppo

That’s a US-only extension mainly used by Facebook and Twitter members.

Also /lib is where some people keep discarded capitalists

That’s what I thought too. This is directory structure, not file systems.

/home is often on a separate volume. You’d want root to be available in a maintenance situation where /home may not be mounted.

I don’t recall the reasons for the addition but /media is newer than /mnt.

Ah, they guy who tried to get Paypal to switch to running on Windows strikes again.

It doesn’t transmit the data; it supposedly stores it locally. The issue is it’s a huge convenient plaintext trove of information if the system is compromised.

Who knows? You could analyze the email to see if the links are legit. The URL suggested appears to be; don’'t follow it by clicking it though.

It’s very simple to have multiple desktop environments installed. You can select which one to use from the login screen, or launch X from a console and then start the DE from the command line.

It would be no problem to remove the office software you’re not using. I doubt that’s connected to any other packages through dependencies.

I assume because it’s more customizable.

This is splendid. 100% fuck DoorDash and UberEats.

Oh, it’s still wildly overvalued. Tesla is worth more than half a dozen other automakers combined, and I don’t see any reason for that. I’m just saying the current price doesn’t really represent a large drop.

Tesla definitely sucks, but headlines like this are so useless. Check out a 5 year chart. Tesla stock hit a 2 year low at the beginning of last year…. that was significant, down to 120. Then it recovered to a fairly average price, where it’s been since then (this made musk the person to “lose” and “gain” record amounts of wealth in a short time). The recent dip hasn’t been extremely significant…. It’s like 245 to 217.

Musk offered an $8 per month price to King as a counteroffer after proposing a higher number. King scoffed at the idea of paying for a blue verification badge at all, which led to Musk gifting the author with an entirely free Twitter Blue subscription.

Wow, I’m sure Stephen King is stoked to be getting a free subscription basically worth nothing rather than paying $96 a year.

Deals on Usenet?

They do now have an extra incentive to manipulate voting to give posts visibility.

I wonder whether he’ll be adjusting the design of the Bezos phallus rocket…

Seems to me it’s likely to make reposts more contentious and lead to more gaming of the voting system.

Huh, okay. I thought it was a quick way to set up a VM - that’s how much I don’t know! I should probably look into it, thanks.

Yeah, that’s really what I haven’t used that seems significant these days - Docker. I used to use VMs a fair bit including the premade ones from MS for IE testing, which I think (?) are the same concept.

This guy throws away one of the most famous brands in the entire world and then says “uh, it’s the Jews!”. Out of all the incredibly stupid things he has said, I still find “And soon we shall bid adieu to the twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds.” especially irritating.
