also, for context this seems to be a 2 years old beef

Tl;Dr: eche|off remembers zlatin and sends him away even before he could have wrote any hateful thoughts. then zlatinb introduces himself and shows his hate towards everyone not a straight white male. then also sends messages that are just otherwise weird, and basically speaks with himself, like an insane abuser does at his ex’s house right after a breakup. and channel members just handle him accordingly, by not responding to him and waiting for him to calm down and go away

then he puts it in a paste, and announces it publicly and proudly.

but Xeha also has a few interesting points, if what he says can be believed

also, does his praise of the C++ i2pd mean that it’s devs have similar beliefs, or is it because they haven’t said any “woke” thing yet?

perhaps systemrescue? It’s an arch based distro, but maybe built differently for better stability. it also does not attempt to start real graphics until you type startx

pressing the power button (to discharge all capacitors)

I think that does not happen anymore in modern PCs. I still always do it, but then I also wait a minute or more after pulling the plug

that sounds interesting, I should try it sometime

surely. until sites start breaking hard and severe security vulnerabilities get found. without maintenance it won’t be all that useful

m… me? sorry for offending you. I prefer keeping my phone charged instead of letting it comlletely discharge. no I’m not living on it, I’m living on my desktop.

also I only read lemmy on the phone.

who tf lets their phone discharge midday. does the battery only last 2 hours?

what happens exactly when you try to sleep it?

what does systemd-inhibit --list say when you can’t sleep it?

also, recently I learned that the system can’t sleep if a FUSE file system (like NTFS on linux) has file activity right when going down (e.g. a large file was being copied or written).
how did you install firefox, to where (which filesystem), and what ff version?

selfhosting libreoffice? what do you mean?

did you check it with VLC, or another player that uses hardware accelerated decoding?

not necessarily, package managers tend to overwrite existing files on the same path, if you end up having installing such a package. but that shouldn’t apply to /usr/local

thats fair, but that shouldn’t make you avoid sensible freedesktop dirs just out of spite.

a distro package is way overkill for this, and its also better to not litter the home directory with yet anothet dotdir, that’s why .local/bin is a good place, also recommended by systemd the freedesktop base directory standard: https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/latest/

I don’t trust ladybird’s dev. he is vocally against a minority, calling their existence politics

so anyone reading this, the post was about pewdiepie doing some video about switching to Linux. I guess OP got scared about the comments and decided to get destructive… I should really set up my website autoarchiver script because this linkrot thing gets boring real quick

they are forcing it. if you are not determined, you won’t be able to get an offline account. many are not determined. many don’t even realize that it’s not for their benefit, even after onedrive starts announcing it daily that their drive is full

Why even bother theorizing that BitLocker may be compromised when they’re removing local accounts for consumers and forcing the key to be uploaded to their servers anyway?

yeah, with that, it’s basically compromised, but maybe not bitlocker itself but the key storage

where I live they never really taught conputer literacy. some places teach ms office and that’s it

they’re not doing this for your security. They want to know that your computer is a “trusted platform”.

security in terms of Trusted Computing is never about your security, and neither about your trust

EDIT: Further lunatic conspiracy theories: BitLocker is/will be backdoored so Microsoft forcing you into that ecosystem further guarantees they have access to your system. This all stinks to me, like your landlord telling you how you can arrange the furniture in your own apartment.

a backup of your bitlocker key is in your Microsoft account, and normally nowhere else. It’s pretty easy for Microsoft to lock you out of your ow computer and data completely, if they wanted. Because you supposedly violated a license, or the terms of use or anything. just sayin’, Microsoft already has (and had for a few years now) a scandal about extorting for your personal phone number by locking down your account a few days after registration, until you hand it over. and even there they justify it with a ToS violation, which is just a lie
