jarfil,

Alternate caption: “Zionists smuggling in settlers before the British mandate ended to have enough votes to create a State of Israel as a safe haven for Holocaust refugees, then getting populated mostly by Jews fleeing Arab countries out of fear of retaliation for having created the State of Israel a day early and having pushed most Palestinians out by force”

jarfil,

How are you supposed to watch her shower first? You’re paying for the time, but you wouldn’t want to, uh, come after someone else.

jarfil,

He didn’t even want to kill all those people, he only wanted to exploit them and then deport everyone to Africa… but the Allies wouldn’t let him conquer enough Africa for all of them, so what was he to do? Killing then wasn’t even his idea, it was Reinhardt’s! He just signed it…

(do I put an /s? it’s historically correct…)

jarfil,

With my face pasted against the window. After a while, all those tiny clouds look like a field of sheep 💤

jarfil,

Ironically, the average total taxation (after you add local, regional, national, etc. taxes) is either lower or at a similar approx. 35% of income.

Americans just get stiffed by where that money goes afterwards.

Discord refuses to remove my phone number attached to my account

Hi, there’s this situation i currently have with discord support, that they refuse to delete my phone number from my account. Basically every time i try to manually remove it, my account gets locked up until i add another phone number in order to continue accessing the service, “for security reasons” with no option for...

jarfil,

Their system has “triggered successfully”, great news everyone! 😃👍

jarfil,

Liftoff works well.

Joinlemmy.org should update the list of apps.

Opinion: Distributions that only change non-system pre-installed software or desktop environment should instead be packages or scripts

The majority of Linux distributions out there seem to be over-engineering their method of distribution. They are not giving us a new distribution of Linux. They are giving us an existing distribution of Linux, but with a different distribution of non-system software (like a different desktop environment or configuration of it)...

jarfil,

Debian would not create and maintain a “core debian” variant just to be installed then receive the extra packages

Debian server minimal, is kind of a “core Debian”. There are netinst versions that can be even smaller. The Debian base image for Docker is even smaller than all that.

There is also an Ubuntu minimal install that you could call “core Ubuntu”.

But more importantly, and I can’t stress this enough: YOU CAN SWITCH DISTROS WITHOUT REINSTALLING. Might need to do some cleanup afterwards, but it’s perfectly doable, more so between Debian based ones.

jarfil,

Not really, I’m not new to containers.

This might blow yours though: I once booted up from a Tomsrtbt disk, installed Debian, added some RedHat packages, and topped it up with some pinned downgrades from Ubuntu.

On bare metal, no containers, no rebooting.

jarfil,

What @exi said. Switching .deb based distros is little more than changing sources, maybe some pinning, doing an upgrade, and optionally a cleanup pass to remove any stranglers.

My main Linux box is a Debian-Ubuntu-Debian upgrade, that hasn’t seen a proper reinstall for like 15 years (switched all the hardware several times, still no clean reinstall).

Switching between non-deb distros is also possible, with a chroot. Like, Gentoo to Fedora. As long as the kernel is compatible with the glibc, it’s basically like running containers, just on slightly hard mode.

jarfil,

I know what I said. Linux upholds the “don’t break userspace” contract pretty well: most kernels, particularly those from generalistic distros built with modules, are compatible with whatever userspace binaries you throw at them. Major version changes in glibc (or equivalent) is where incompatibilities start, but those happen quite rarely, and you can often still force multiple glibc versions to run side by side.

jarfil,

I want GDPR export.

Next, GDPR import of the same data (aka, account migration)

The Blender market is kinda revolutionary and noone really talks about it

All code on the blendermarket is GPL. Yet, it sold over 25 million dollars worth of software. No DRM on the assets, all free software. Free as in freedom, not as in beer. In spite of that, I have not seen once anyone in the blender community complain about piracy, let alone have I seen anyone distribute any software or assets...

jarfil,

Could you link some examples?

Also keep in mind that people can release their work under multiple licenses, so they may upload the same work with a different license (like a privative one) to other markets.

jarfil,

As it should be, no single point of failure.

jarfil,

Indeed. Export and migration are still something pending for Lemmy, as is GDPR compliance (export, rectification, erasure of data).

jarfil,

Can’t kill 8 billion, when half of them are tied to the “no kill” tracks.

Instead of killing one, you’re saving half of humanity! Double it!

jarfil,

the karma accumulated could be used to improve the rate of exchange for Reddit gold into real-world money (possibly USD)

Oh, so all those people with 10+ year accounts, with tons of karma accumulated over the years, and who deleted their accounts in protest for the API changes… are actually a “good thing” so Reddit doesn’t have to pay top rates for their comments?

Nice move, very nice… /s

jarfil,

I got suspended for “sexualization of minors”. Appealed that I did no such thing, and in response got permanently suspended for “repeated violations”.

So when “they” say you did it, you better believe it, because claiming otherwise is an additional violation 🤦

jarfil,

If you check the mods on that sub, some have north of $100k at the current exchange rate.

jarfil,

Probably can’t be libel if they don’t make it public, just stuff that happens behind closed doors and they can say “no comment”. Would be different if Reddit had a public modlog like Lemmy.

My guess is, after 10 years without a problem, someone around 2 years ago might have marked me for takedown for whatever reason. I always tried to be respectful, but didn’t start self-censoring until they suspended me for “violent content” without even referencing what was the supposed content. I kind of hoped that using Power Delete Suite to blank the account history, and avoiding most polemic topics from then onwards, would keep it safe, but apparently not.

Ironically, an alt account I created to participate in more polemic topics, got zero problems… but they now banned it along the main one, so bye Reddit, so long and thanks for all the fish.

jarfil,

There is no need to get notified, they didn’t steal passwords, just session cookies. Most (all?) servers have invalidated all the user login cookies, but if you are in doubt, just logging out and back in should be enough to get a new cookie.
