Gentoo goes Binary (packages) (www.gentoo.org)

To speed up working with slow hardware and for overall convenience, we’re now also offering binary packages for download and direct installation! For most architectures, this is limited to the core system and weekly updates - not so for amd64 and arm64 however. There we’ve got a stunning >20 GByte of packages on our mirrors,...

No. But "bin" implies "binary" (already compiled).

'The Wedding': Iranian spy plot to kill two news presenters in London uncovered by double agent (www.itv.com)

Iranian spies offered a people-smuggler $200,000 (around £158,290) to assassinate two news presenters codenamed “the bride and the groom” outside their London studio, to show critics of the regime they “could do harm to them at any time”....

“They accuse Iran of committing any kidnap or assassination [on television] and we must finish them and make an example of them to anyone who will run the channel after them, so anyone who will take their place in the channel will learn a lesson from what happened to them,”

Big brain time.

The part where they say that using Linux instead of Windows is like leaving the US for Canada when Trump gets elected, and apparently it's bad because it means you don't help improve things for Windows (lol).

I know it sounds just like a joke, but it isn't. Tim Sweeney is really such a moron. Source: https://twitter.com/timsweeneyepic/status/964284402741149698

Blasphemy and racism are two very different things.

Blasphemy is a human right.

Besides, there are already laws against hate speech.

That's a nice word salad to say you support blasphemy laws.

Silejonu,

So you unambiguously said you support a blasphemy law, but somehow you don't support blasphemy laws? Wake up.

You don't. Seriously. The point of an ergonomic keyboard is to touch-type. You won't learn to do that if you look at your keyboard.

Print your keyboard layout on a sheet of paper, and hang it next to your monitor. Now when you want to type a character, look it up on your sheet, and without looking at your fingers, type it. Try to remember the position like "left index finger, two lines above the rest line".

If you're basically recreating Linux Mint from scratch, yes.

Linux can be heavily modified, and removing Snap from Ubuntu is no exception. But it's an involved process.

What do you think about this? (www.youtube.com)

Since i see so much linux talk on lemmy i got curious and watched a video about the common distros. How true is the information in this video? The person hardly describes why debian and arch are just better than every other distro. At least i’m definitely now curious about Mint or something for gaming.

The thing is Snaps are pushed on the desktop, and the server world already uses containers like Docker, so there isn't much Snap does that's truly unique and useful.

Fedora is not the beta of anything, nor is CentOS Stream.

Fedora is a stable desktop-focused distribution, with a 6 months release cycle. CentOS Stream and RHEL are forked from Fedora at some point.

CentOS Stream receives stable updates at the same time as RHEL. Some packages get minor updates during the lifetime of RHEL. When it's the case, they get pushed in the next RHEL minor release, but get pushed immediately on CentOS Stream. In any case, they are stable updates, and scheduled for inclusion in RHEL. They have already been tested.

I suspect DoT and DoH still go through, though? I mean you can always block the port 853 for DoT, but DoH is another story.

I see. I may try to do something similar but towards Unbound on my OPNSense router, if that's possible.

Try this:

sudo dnf update
sudo dnf install https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm
sudo dnf groupupdate core
sudo dnf swap ffmpeg-free ffmpeg --allowerasing
sudo dnf groupupdate multimedia --setop="install_weak_deps=False" --exclude=PackageKit-gstreamer-plugin
sudo dnf groupupdate sound-and-video

You should also add the hardware accelerated codecs, by following the appropriate section depending on your hardware:

Make sure to reboot.

If this still does not work, install Celluloid and enjoy the superiority of mpv.

Can you run GNOME Videos in the command line and copy/paste the error output when it crashes?

See my comment for the solution.

That's an Estonia thing, not a Europe thing. Estonia is notorious for being the land of IT. In the rest of Europe, IT is heavily male-dominated. I just finished an IT tech/sysadmin training in France: out of 15 people, 3 were women, and it was probably one of the best ratio they've ever had. It seems there are a bit more women in the programming courses recently, though, but they're still a minority.

At my current job, out of a little over 100 people in various IT teams, 10 are women.

I use a DualSense, an 8BitDo Pro2, and a Switch Pro controller.

My favourite by far is the DualSense: motion control works (unlike the 8BitDo), and the touchpad is really useful to control the mouse cursor in menus. The buttons are also shorter and real more reactive. It's on the bigger size, which may or may not be a good thing for you. I have smaller hands, so for me it's not as comfortable as the 8BitDo, but it's definitely bearable, and I still use it over my 8BitDo Pro2.

The Switch Pro controller is a pain in some games (last time I tried, it was so bugged it was unusable with Dead Cells), and I don't see any real advantage it would have over an 8BitDo Pro2. Maybe the motion control? I don't know if it works or not, I have never tested it.

Oh, yes, I forgot that. It's been a while I have touched my Switch.

For your links (I believe it works with files too), check out Heimdall. It's not offline, but it's FOSS and selfhosted.

No you don't.

rm -fr / requires the flag, but rm -fr /* does not.

Any idea what Google are doing? Is this because I dont use Chrome (use Firefox)? I've no adblockers. (lemmy.world)

So this started coming up today. On every video. I can (so far) click the “x” and remove it to watch (still see 2 ads before the video, and one after 4 minutes - ruins music on YT), but did click the “Report issue” only for the dialogue box not to work....

Did you update your filters?

I had the pop-up today, updated my filters then reloaded the page, and the warning was gone.

No, you don't understand, it's easy:

  • if the government punishes you for what you said, it's an attack on Free Speech™
  • if woke Twitter cancels you for what you said, it's an attack on Free Speech™
  • if a far-right/Republican shoots you down for what you said, it's just the consequences of your Free Speech™
  • if you're writing a book about sexual education, it's not Free Speech™ anymore, and you should be censored

Easy, huh? /s
