eww, go fuck yourself

Same for GY!BE, I guess

And blockades are universally considered an act of war

but why

seriously. now you basically don’t have access to a large number of packages. sure, waterfox is a good alternative to firefox. but say you do want to install firefox (or any other package that canonical distributes only as a snap), what do you do?

I get that it’s possible to run Kubuntu, or even stock Ubuntu, without snap. that’s the beauty of an open OS, you can do whatever you want with it. I just don’t get why you would want to run a distro that is actively pushing a standard on you that you don’t want

I think that’s what they were saying: it still uses Ubuntu repositories, which use snap. So to install, e.g. Firefox natively, you need to manually meddle with PPAs, or compile from source. The package manger, arguably the biggest strength of any Linux distro, becomes next to useless unless you want to run snaps

Just fucking start collecting the existing taxes on wealth

They are in the law already, they just haven’t been collected in over twenty years

They might not be “the good guys”, and their secondary objectives are despicable, but their first objective is an end to the occupation, and they certainly are a resistance group.

mille, not mile. mille means thousand, so “per mille” means “per thousand”, just as “per cent” means “per hundred”. so 10‰ is 1%

Bringing piracy back to its roots

Generally, no. Some private trackers will give you trouble for it, but it’s not a terrible thing to do. It just means there are less sources of those files for other peers. This could lead to someone not getting the full download and being stuck at 99%, if you’re the only seeder online. For popular torrents, no harm done at all

okay dad, you destroy your back with the chair, what’s your point

The first settlements were established in 1909, and the 1920s/30s were full of Zionist terrorism, bombings and massacres by paramilitaries

LGBTC

Without a doubt. But PhD level thinking requires a kind of introspection that LLMs (currently) just don’t have. And the letter counting thing is a funny example of that inaccuracy

But they don’t recognize their inadequacies, instead spouting confident misinformation

I’ve done that for one or two modules, but if that’s too much, I just do the hackjob solution: have the actual dot files in the repo and include them in the config, so nixos copies then to the store read-only and links them to my home. But I’ve had that come up pretty rarely, tbh. I don’t know if Home-Manager has become more comprehensive or if I’m just not that demanding, but I’ve only had a handful of modules where I needed to do significant tinkering

I use nixos (with Home-Manager), so I have everything in a declarative configuration. I have all of that in a public repo (well not quite all, I have my email setup in a private repo that’s included in the configuration).

God, this is cursed

No, no, let’s instead reduce friction by making it entirely out of steel, and lay down an even, steel surface for it to roll on, maybe in the shape of tracks
