I think you might have meant "scraped’. I don’t think that AI companies would throw away valuable training data without a goo reason.

Maybe, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it were only kept in memory, being monitor-specific & re-retrievable.
If it’s not stored in a file, perhaps KDE cli tools or debug utilities could help.

I’m still learning japanese, but I think it translates to something like: “First, to the warzone, prime minister.”
I don’t remember having seen から used like that before, but I can’t think of anything else that would make sense.
Edit: fixed transcription.

1·4 months agoDisclaimer: I’m learning Japanese & I don’t know Chinese.
It looks like the original character for the 3rf person pronoun is now the masculine pronoun & the female pronoun is made by substituting the person component (人, I don’t know how to type the left-component form) with the woman component (女).

Linux@lemmy.ml•Debian, encrypted boot, how to increase password attempts?English
3·8 months agoI meant the following:
- Find out the Debian package is too old
- Create Arch Live USB
- Boot Arch Live USB
- Copy GRUB config from the Debian install to the current Arch live system
- Install the up-to-date GRUB while in the Arch environment
The bootloader installer package is distro dependent, the bootloader the package installs isn’t. You can boot Debian no matter if the GRUB is installed from Debian stable, Debian Sid, Arch, Fedora or even FreeBSD. Otherwise, dual booting wouldn’t work.
Like I said, I’ve done that before, though with SystemD Boot instead of GRUB, which was a bit simpler due to how the bootloader is configured.
emerge --ask cake ... [ebuild N ] dev-dotnet/cake-5.0.0 USE="-debug"Huh. Seems like Gentoo really has a cake recipe.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Debian, encrypted boot, how to increase password attempts?English
41·8 months agoAs it’s a bootloader, it should make almost no difference which distribution was used to install it. (I’m not sure if Debian patches their GRUB.) I just used Arch as an example, as it is famous for being up to date. And, no matter where it’s installed from, if you’ve made changes to GRUB’s configuration, you’ll have to copy it over to the live distribution to keep your changes.
Yes, Debian Sid might be more familiar for Debian users, but that’s it.
Edit: You said “get the grub debs from Debian sid”, but installing Sid packages on non-Sid systems isn’t something that you should do.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Debian, encrypted boot, how to increase password attempts?English
52·8 months agoBut bootloaders are distro/OS agnostic. Why wait for Debian, when you could, for example, boot an Arch live ISO to install a newer GRUB?
I don’t use GRUB, but have done the same thing with SystemD Boot before. As GRUB’s configuration system is a bit more complex, you might have to mount your main install to get the correct config file.

But that would be communist!
Don’t you know that a society can’t be truly free unless the ones with power have the freedom to oppress those who don’t?
