Short-sightedly.

Of course that’s how sanctions work… against nations. Linux isn’t a country, it’s not an American asset. They could have resisted. Linus chose not to.

Do they? They could have just isolated those commits as sanctioned and added a warning. Linux hates Russians as a Finn, so didn’t need much convincing to remove them.

I would be singing a different tune if our allies invading other countries at the moment were also sanctioned, but that’s not the case.

As it stands, let the individuals escape the nation state punishment. They didn’t start this war, and likely don’t support it.

It’s on sa, so ok.

This is what I’m thinking. The file originally overwrote an older one, I muxed in and synced truehd audio into the original and ended up copying it back after forgetting a subtitle track. It definitely went back and forth with the same name a few times. It’s probably something with the Unix ACLs. Still concerning that it crashes the SMB daemon.

Exactly. All the hype and excitement over a locked down arm ecosystem with evaporating battery life advantages. No thank you. Development efforts are better served elsewhere. I would prefer the Linux community ignore it rather than support it over RISC-V.

It’s almost like the whole customized apps to fit into the GTK framework concept creates too much added work and needs to be rethought.

I don’t understand why someone should choose any GTK variant when they’ll have to refactor and rewrite their application every few years.

You see all of the electric cars on the road now? Tesla saw an opportunity to make money, and it paved a path to lower carbon emissions (eventually). Even the blind chicken catches a worm. Capitalism isn’t all bad, it’s the greed it breeds that’s bad. The world isn’t black and white.

I don’t think he fooled anyone. The guy was literally helping the environment and advancing the space age. Then he started using drugs and went off the rails. He’s like Kanye. His music was good, the creator just went nuts.

A system fault is not the same as a vulnerability. These would have different baseline CVSS 3.1 scores, with the temporal and environmental reducing over time. A medium/low at best for a public endpoint exposing PII.

Remind me to start a batch rekeying service.

Friendly reminder to change your master password. You’re one SIM jack away from having your life locked away for ransom. They didn’t breach the seeds, but next time who knows. I would start migrating and changing 2FA codes just in case. You never know who might be spraying.

After decades of user interfaces and internet access, we’re making things worse rather than better.

Someone at Microsoft realized that hardware will speed up, hiding the fact that the OS is getting bloated and riddled with code that doesn’t directly benefit the user.

The value Windows provides isn’t great enough to deal with this state any longer. In fact, my experience shows it’s slower and just as buggy.

We have technology available to improve experiences, let’s not mix it with profit incentives for once.

If your antenna is strong enough, you can pick up a lot of lower power devices from a long ways off.

This is problem with platform lock in. Be it discord, X, FB groups, Reddit. Communities form and then fragment as the members who realize there are better open options leave.

The users of the web have enough desktop and laptop cpu cycles to spare for passing a few decentralized messages around without killing battery life or performance. We don’t need these experience degrading/dehumanizing ad platforms to underpin our internet. That’s just a narrative peddled by companies who aim to make obscene profit on top of their already obscene profits.

They’re basically the same as regular, but the wattage rating (usually called tdp) is lower.
