Jan 6th made him the worst, say what you want about Buchanan or Jackson but at least they did their atrocities within the system they were elected to uphold.

I’m not talking about the technical rules of legal moves when your king is checked. I’m talking about when there’s checkmate and the victor and the loser are set in stone. Why can’t I capture the king at that point? I can understand why you can’t do so with a resignation because your pieces likely aren’t near the...
Announcing when the enemy’s king is in danger is a mistake. We should stop telling people when they’re in check, shouldn’t correct each other if they put their king into check, and you win by taking their king
What Linux distro do you use? What do you use it for?
Arch Linux, it’s the most maintainable way to run the last versions of the software on my machine, which is useful to me as a developer.
What is your experience with it?
Breakage is rare. When it does happen, though, I can easily unbreak it by downgrading whichever single package lead to the breakage and its dependencies, and adding them to a IgnorePkg directive in my /etc/pacman.conf.
Occasionally, I need to watch out for configuration files installed as .pacnew and upgrade my existing configuration to the new version (usually, it’s only comments that have changed between the current conf version and the .pacnew one, so nothing to do).
Besides that, it works pretty much flawlessly. Arch Linux doesn’t patronize you with a “Don’t worry about that, we’ll handle it for you” attitude like Ubuntu, Fedora, or macOS. And there is no lower-effort way than Arch Linux to run the latest version of all software you have installed.
Why did you switch to Linux?
As a developer, I needed a *nix environment, but my workplace only gave me Windows. Cygwin was a pain to configure, required converting between Windows paths and Cygwin paths every step of the way in order to interoperate with my Windows environment (this was before WSL), and Windows-style line endings made my terminal look weird with some frequency.
I didn’t start with Arch right away, I started with Antergos (a now discontinued Arch installer), which set things up initially and let me work with it from there. Importantly, it didn’t involve a completely separate package manager like Manjaro. If you want to use Arch, don’t start with Manjaro, because if you do, you will probably stay on Manjaro. A list of Arch-based distros is here, if you want to take this approach (Warning: Some people use an Arch installer, which is initially easy, accidentally break everything on an upgrade, and are unable to get it working again, so only do this if you’re committed to fixing your own problems).
Disabled people who are still shielding from Covid have far less trust in the government than the general public and are far more likely to believe it handled the pandemic very badly, a survey has found.
Are we in the middle of a counter-terrorism operation that gives the whole country COVID in an attempt to wipe out all those dangerous, disabled insurgents?
Long story short, I have a desktop with Fedora, lovely, fast, sleek and surprisingly reliable for a near rolling distro (it failed me only once back around Fedora 34 or something where it nuked Grub).

You’re never actually “adding” the whole file unless it’s a brand-new file, git add my-file just adds every patch change for that file without confirmation.
Using git add -p my-file, the same hooks will run as if you staged and committed all changes to my-file.
Edit: Not sure why, but many instances don’t show crossposts out of dbzer0.
In order for a post to show up as a crosspost, it must use the exact same URL, rather than re-uploading it each time. It looks like each crosspost so far has used a separate URL except your !196 crosspost.
I like messing with hexbear users, they have no idea how anything works, they can’t downvote, they’re easy to ban, and they are so damn fun to troll. Buuut they are also very annoying, so I can totally understand the yes.
But obviously that’s a thin facade, they try to call out a SJW user for not being explicitly anti-Hexbear, and after all they posted a defederation vote even though an admin didn’t want to vote yet.
Fauci’s comments reiterate the declaration in January 2022 by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Rochelle Walensky that the fact that COVID-19 predominantly kills people who are “unwell to begin with” is “encouraging news.”
I see. Yep, Firefox + Tampermonkey is the replacement. You’ll need to use Firefox Nightly so you can install an extension collection (that includes Tampermonkey).

They’re actively working on it (watch, don’t post or vote), but Nitter is getting throttled. Nitter is switching to guest accounts and actively tracking rate limits, which is not on the master branch yet.
What do you say to all of the people who use Whatsapp instead of Telegram because its default privacy is better? Privacy is one of the main selling points of WhatsApp, even though Signal has better privacy.
To anyone else waiting until the new vaccine is available in September, consider protecting yourself in the meantime with Covixyl, which is a nasal spray. It doesn’t keep you from getting COVID, but it reduces the viral load for 4 hours, so if you do get COVID, it will be less severe (though you should still get Paxlovid at that point regardless).
anyone got a hook up for dune part 2?
