so add rice and then you arrive back to the post :)


good to know! thankfully I legit don’t have much sensitive stuff in my computer but will try to keep a good habit of shutting down lol


you type it in on boot


shut down and its encrypted? ofc you also have to have a decrypt password. I use luks so if my computer gets stolen my files arent readable, which is true because they cant leave my house without unplugging it


Linux with LUKS can be configured to decrypt at boot


V for Vendetta
Yeah the exception that proves the rule but still, anarchy-man is cool



Some clients show an excerpt (I ain’t complaining about you putting it in a comment though) so probably to that guy it looked like you just copy/pasted this thing


No, but if it did you could control where your data lived, because people do host their own PDS iirc for bluesky.


AT proto’s PDS architecture does solve that 👀
Edit: I do want to say that after reading this blog post I have become a bit more lenient on ATProto. It seemed rather neutral and objective and found several upsides that I think are worth taking a look at.


Valve could do it.
he wrote the bulk of first three at the same time, iirc, from Dune to Children is a specific story. God emporer was a new thing
I feel like I learned more about linux and my computer by installing arch (before we had the neat installer we have now). So for me, arch is a better learning tool. I do really like nix (havent used it myself, but Im a functional programmer and declarative configuration is my jam) but it’s definitely a better way of managing an installation than arch I imagine. My next distro if arch ever fails me will be an immutable distro, Nix is definitely top 3 for me that I reach for
the other response is correct (i have my Complete Esperanto book right next to me as i type this) but for the common folk around here: essentially like for-jay-oh


What are your thoughts on boycotting using the US dollar? Moral perfectionism in a capitalist society is a difficult road. I urge a more pragmatic approach over dogmatic, and just volunteering or performing mutual aid in your community. Or create open source software yourself.


As an open source software developer, this is a weird hill to die on, and I use and donate to Codeberg every month. I don’t give GitHub one penny and I don’t support anything about GitHub’s AI shit, but I do not mind them eating my costs or other peoples costs for me or them one bit. I’m not at all against having my open source code subsidized by wealthier people.
Sure, go ahead and say “if you’re poor and need github’s free services I won’t use your software” but it’s just weird. Codeberg is not a for-profit corporation, it is wrong to demand them to provide free services. It is not wrong to use to the maximum extent GitHub’s free services, imo, so long as you aren’t giving them money. Bleed em while they let you and all that jazz. It absolutely does cost them, but they don’t care so why should the less fortunate?


I only want to see ai remove code while keeping tests passing. until it can do that what value does it bring


you are an idiot
And this is why i do my best to be the least imposing on workers at stores. I even will fix a stray cart
