That’s how it should go, yes.

Does that1 security no-no matter on a single-user system which (almost) never leaves the sight of said user? Or is that just a matter of ‘don’t do this on a server’?

Thank you, that’s a switch I hadn’t looked at. I’ll admit though, I’m on Mint, I have a nice built-in GUI that works nicely.

Um… shouldn’t it be:

sudo su;
apt-get update;
flatpak update;

Or am I missing something?

Not flooding the world with more LLM-related slop really doesn’t sound like that bad a thing. A nation already known for widespread IP theft is better-equipped to double down on that. Then again, I’m one of those people who resembles that meme about the only network-aware appliance I have being a printer, and being ready to disable it if it makes any strange noises.

This is exactly what I was about to say.

Oh, I agree with you. But the more we publicize this, the more pressure we can apply to site devs to support multiple browsers.

Report the error to the company and to Mozilla.

Well, I’ll never see it, unless TI or another American company designs their own version.

Mint here. It looks like Windows and runs the software and hardware I want. Simple as that.

Well, this way the apartheidist will never see the bugs he’s introduced into any of the systems he’s broken.

Did you call Apogee?

I need to go back to IKEA. But I need to make my own too.

I genuinely don’t mind that too much.

I enjoyed parts of Persepolis when I read it the first time. Mind you, that was at the same time for me that In The Shadow of No Towers was still too painful, and I had tried to engage with Maus. I need to go back to it.

She is basically right about people, in my experience.

So we need to defend the First Amendment again. They should probably have constricted the 2nd before the 1st for their own good.

The people absolutely do. It’s the government that’s the biggest problem. Same with Russia and the USA. Frankly, most people on Earth probably just want their work, their bread, and their circuses, and to be left alone outside of that. But there’s a problem - their government stands between us, and sets down rules that oppose those things - like the issues I brought up, among others. I care that they’re oppressive and censorious. I also feel that way about the US federal government, and European governments too.

I don’t hate the people - I try not to really hate anybody. I just don’t want their government’s enforced morals having an impact on the media I enjoy.

I don’t mind that. If they stop importing our movies, we can also block their companies from overtaking domestic film companies. And we can stop importing their cultural values and limitations.

Free Tibet. Free the Uygher Muslim community, free Hong Kong, free Taiwan ROC.

Yes, but 90% of everything is crap. Why should we expect data centers to be any different?

The cult of personality won’t matter once the Christian Nationalist movement takes hold.
