lemmyreader,

Thanks for the nuanced comment. Of course the signs don’t only say ‘stop killing of children in Gaza’, but often ‘from the river to the sea’, which of course is antisemitism.

Of course antisemitism ? That is what the repeated front-page news of mainstream media tried to make me believe a while ago, and then lots of politicians started to believe that as well, even banning that sentence in some countries. Here’s some information on it :

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/From_the_river_to_the_sea

Many Palestinian activists have called it “a call for peace and equality” after decades of Israeli military rule over Palestinians while for Jews it is seen as a call for the “destruction” of Israel.

A glitch in the Fediverse I guess. Here’s my view. https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/239a07d2-50e0-4842-abfa-3f9982c07046.png

They are not pioneers, they are Microsoft funded group (at the beginning, at least)

In the beginning in 1997 GNOME was a direct response to KDE using Qt toolkit with a license that GNU with RMS did not like at all. Not sure why you mention Microsoft and funded ? When I search for it I see that M$ gave 10K to GNOME in 2022, more than two decades later.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_they_came_

“First they came …” (German: Zuerst kamen sie …) is the poetic form of a 1946 post-war confessional prose by the German Lutheran pastor Martin Niemöller (1892–1984). It is about the silence of German intellectuals and clergy — including, by his own admission, Niemöller himself—following the Nazis’ rise to power and subsequent incremental purging of their chosen targets, group after group. Many variations and adaptations in the spirit of the original have been published in the English language. It deals with themes of persecution, guilt, repentance, solidarity, and personal responsibility.

American Motorcyclist Association Urges DOT to Act on Automated Driver System Regulations Following Tragic Collision (americanmotorcyclist.com)

PICKERINGTON, Ohio (April 26, 2024) — In the wake of the most recent tragedy involving a fatal collision between a Tesla vehicle in autopilot mode and a motorcyclist in Washington state, the American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) once again urges the Department of Transportation (DOT) to strengthen Automated Driving System...

lemmyreader,

I think the progress we’ve made on driverless vehicles is pretty amazing and I really want to live in a world where they work - but we’re not there yet and some idiots are under the impression we are.

Who is the “we” you mentioned three times ?

lemmyreader,

Indeed useful to not having to share passwords. I think sudo historically started as a way to let some users in a company for example manage printer server settings without having a root password. (And I believe it was Ubuntu in 2004 which promoted sudo and forced the default user after an installation to use sudo to perform root commands).

lemmyreader,

Actually, i thought about merging rdo and ssu, both a bit over 100 loc in C.

Found ssu here : github.com/illiliti/ssu Can’t find rdo. What is it ?

lemmyreader,

Thanks

lemmyreader,

The project is based on CSS and HTML files. I guess deploying would mean putting it in the right place (Say : /var/www/html/) and using it with your web-server software or at your hosting provider.

Exactly, and governments and companies need to acknowledge that privatizing health was a very bad idea to begin with. People deserve the best health support in this “crazy” world.

lemmyreader,

On the desktop it does. But on Android things are maybe different ? Not directly related but I remember (long time ago) wanting to tether from an Android phone with Mullvad VPN app in use, to a computer, only to find out that the Android defaults (In Android not in the Mullvad app) needed a button swiped to make it work correctly on the other device.

lemmyreader,

Well, I didn’t see the other comments till now, and wrote Upvoted as an alternative to Insightful which I was intending it to sound. I appreciated your comment because I think Google likely have their own priorities.

lemmyreader,

All fine. Your comment where you mentioned autistic suddenly made me “understand” the let-s-call-them misunderstandings in this thread. And I agree about the toxic world, but we’re all in the same boat, so I’d say we may as well be nice to each other at least a few seconds per day. Sometimes small things can make a big difference.

lemmyreader,

Very nice.

lemmyreader,

I’ve heard that on Microsoft OS the root user is named Administrator (and on some BSD OS root is called Charlie!), so yes.

lemmyreader,

No worries. When I saw the image on Mastodon I thought I did not get it but still looks funny.

  • “RunAs” is apparently the Windows equivalence of sudo in Linux.
  • Administrator in Windows == root in Linux.
  • Furries are popular among some users on the Fediverse, for reasons.

Hey Battery, are you OK? You've been saying 0% for 15 min now. (lemmy.world)

Running a Gigabyte U4UD, been having battery problems for months now, and the battery health only reports 50% capacity. Started playing Battlefront and got distracted and saw my battery looks like this now. Been doing this for 15 min, so either my battery is magical… or the Clevo design is flawed. Seeing how long she goes for...

lemmyreader,

The Ubuntu laptop had to connect to company vpn. It were using openconnect-network-manager-gnome thingy to do that. Recently the company upgraded their vpn software which is sorta incompatible with openconnect and requires a modified user agent string for it to prompt for 2FA keys. package in ubuntu 22.04 is too old to modify that in the gui.

If you have a good idea what I could have tried let me know, love to hear new ideas.

Hmm, tough one. Suggesting to post your question as a new post in relevant Lemmy /c/ or StackExchange and so on. Here as a not so new comment of a comment it will get little exposure I guess.
