When you want to feel special but not enough to go to the effort of using FreeBSD

It absolutely isn’t, but it’s good that he’s saying so anyway.

You have to wonder how people are so willing to damage their reputations. I just can’t imagine stooping so low as to invite Pinker on to my podcast.

Legit heroes resigned. This coward should be put in stocks and subsequently run out of public life.

Wat?

Wanting someone with disastrous mental health issues to not be capable of launching a nuclear strike isn’t ableism.

Would you loan a gun to a friend who’s been really depressed lately? According to you, you should.

Oh, I forgot that Truman, the only person in history to actually use nuclear weapons, famously only did so because he had depression. Or he was a perfectly mentally well person who was also a racist to the extent that he didn’t care about the lives of Japanese children. One of those. I always get it confused.

Anyway, the answer to who I would loan a gun to and who should be capable of launching a nuclear strike is the same: no one. But I would trust your averaged depressed person with the nuclear codes more than I would Trump. To be clear: if Trump has a mental illness, that is not the thing that is wrong with him. What’s wrong with him is that he’s a fascist.

I had a co-worker who said he didn’t want a woman to be president because “she’d start a war every month.” I guess he’s not really misogynist like I thought.

It’s always disappointing to see how much people on here hate people with mental disabilities. Under no circumstances would anyone be OK with comparing Donald Trump to another minority. I think even insulting him by calling him fat is perceived as too gauche. But ableism? 100% OK by most of Lemmy.

Follow the guidelines as mentioned in freedesktop

Which guidelines are you talking about? Searching for “proxy” and “environment variables” didn’t pull up anything I saw that would be relevant in this case. I’ve been using linux for a couple of decades now and I’m not sure what rule is being broken here.

It sounds like you didn’t have a proxy set in your environment variables, but you did have one set through another means. It’s somewhat standard practice to have fall-through settings, where if settings aren’t set in one place, a program looks in another place, then maybe another, etc. Now admittedly it would be nice to have a way to disable functionality entirely, but usually that kind of thing happens with command line flags.

I get that it’s frustrating to deal with a problem like this, but ultimately your environment was misconfigured, and that’s going to break some software.

https://massgrave.dev/ works just fine with ltsc as well and https://www.pcrf.net/ can always use more money

It’s very funny to take this tack when you are basically claiming to be the smartest person in the country, the only one to see the plain truth of the situation

I can’t think of Reagan’s shooter’s name, either. That isn’t proof it was staged.

Love that straight up QAnon level shit is getting the majority of upvotes here. Good sign, the future is bright

How did the breaker not trip on that? It had one job

Not quite the same thing, but there’s a project that lets you use TPM to protect your host keys: https://github.com/Foxboron/ssh-tpm-agent

[edit: its primary function is to work with clients but buried in the readme it also explains how to use it for host keys]

A billionaire who is 61 is very likely to outlive 75, even if they’re fat.

I’ve been happy with btrfs. No issues with gaming. There’s even a pretty good Windows driver, which I’ve used successfully to transfer data between Linux & Windows. Though I haven’t installed Windows itself to btrfs, which is apparently possible!

A fingerprint is a password you leave a copy of on everything you touch.

Don’t go to https://massgrave.dev/ and follow the instructions there, that would be copyright infringement and would deprive an already insanely wealthy corporation of some funds.

The meme text itself refers to “frequent” updates. Seems weird to compare apples to oranges, since release updates are not frequent. Even still, updating from buster to bookworm was relatively painless; certainly not 3 hours of reconfiguration. Before that, I was on Ubuntu, and the release updates were also painless; I remember multiple times not needing to do anything except uncomment the sources.list(.d) changes.

[edit: Another quick point. Since Debian/Ubuntu manage configuration for you to some extent, you don’t need to fix configuration files as often as you would need to on Arch, hence not needing to do ~20+ config changes for two years of updates all at once.]
