Anywhere with a biosecurity law has signs posted in the most popular languages. And they’ll usually tell you not to bring food or animal products into the country in any form. And there are convenient trash cans in case you did bring something you need to get rid of before you hit customs.
That’s how it should be, yeah. But some people say “well you have to prove that it was service-connected!” and if the service is classified, you can’t.
Really, we should just have universal healthcare so that this isn’t even a question in the first place.

Hi there, I’m on Bazzite KDE and recently somehow lost a my “gaming” folder…? No idea how but must gave been user faulty, e.g me. Therefore wondering if it’s possible to lock certain folders so that this cannot accidentally happen?
So, I’m sure some of you know. If configured, you can use a backing device for Zram for scenarios where Zram can’t compress the data, e.g. when it’s full. For this you can use pretty much any supported partition format, including btrfs, what I realized is that you can used btrfs disk compression on top of that. Question...
If it’s not compressible, it’s not compressible. Algorithm isn’t going to make much difference. Already compressed media, for example, can’t really be compressed. In fact, if you try, you might just find it actually ends up bigger than the original.
It’s normal for a switch to strip a vlan tag when it sends a packet out, so that the endpoint doesn’t have to support vlans. Don’t worry about that. As far as the endpoint is concerned, it’s just normal subnetting.
When it’s on the other vlan, can you even ping it? When you check the packet capture, can you see the ping and response? Where does it get dropped?
Technically this isn’t actually a seafile issue, however the upload client really should have the ability to run checksums to compare the original file to the file that is being synced to the server (or other device)....
Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem. If a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24/7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the US release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate’s service is more valuable.
It was true then and it’s still true today. Services like Steam, Spotify, and Netflix are far more valuable to the consumer than physical distribution.
If you want to support your favorite artists, come out and see them on tour (at non-ticketmaster venues, preferably) and/or buy merch.

I’m not seeing a problem here. Shunning people who support genocide is fine with me.
There’s no gray area, either. Either you’re against genocide or you’re in favor. There’s no “Israel can do a little genocide, as a treat”. That’s still genocide. If you decline to condemn genocide, that’s still on the side of genocide.
If genocide collaborators want to collaborate, let them suffer the consequences.
