Arch live ISO gives you arch-chroot which does all the binds automatically

That isn’t neccessary. nvidia-open automatically replaced nvidia (same for nvidia-open-dkms, nvidia-open-utils etc) when 590 hit and installing any of those nvidia-580xx packages will ask to remove them because they conflict.

It should be illegal to use pacman without pacman-contrib installed for checkupdates (no risk of partial upgrades) and for comparing and merging .pacnew-files with pacdiff…

While the distinction can be important, the snapshots from right before the update are exactly what you want in this case over some actual but always somewhat outdated real backup

“Doesn’t help” is a bit unspecific for an actual answer.

I simply installed nvidia-580xx-dkms and nvidia-580xx-utils and that was all. If you did not already use the dkms-driver package before you of course also need <your kernel>-headers and dkms (but the latter should be pulled as a dependency for nvidia-580xx-dkms anyway)…

Which automatically asks for the removal of nvidia-open (the standard package for the base linux kernel) or nvidia-open-dkms and nvidia-open-utils that replaced the earlier nvidia, nvidia-dkms, nvidia-utils packages when 590 hit.

PS: If you still have stuff using 32bit add (you might have guessed the scheme by now…) lib32-nvidia-580xx-utils to replace lib32-nvidia-open-utils

nvidia was automatically replaced with nvidia-open (also nvidia-open-lts, nvidia-open-dkms etc).

Simply installing nvidia-580xx-dkms, nvidia-580xx-utils (and lib32-nvidia-580xx-utils because Steam still needs all that 32bit stuff), which automatically removes the 590-open stuff because of conflicts, should be all you need to do.

PS: And of course your kernel’s header package if you did not use dkms before… (dkms should be pulled as a dependency automatically)

What couldn’t Europe do? They are easily ⅔ of NATO in equipment and soldiers. What the US is bringing is mostly the logistics for force projection over-seas. And they increase the number of nukes from enough to destroy the world a few times to a hundred times. Which is totally irrelevant for Europe defending against a country in Europe (that’s where the relevant parts of Russia are) on European soil.

People have spend to much time soaking up US propaganda about how they are all paying for Europe’s defense. Just the non-US part of NATO is still on a completely different level than Russia. And the few categories where they can somewhat compete still requires to value every single piece of ancient ex-soviet equipment as equal to modern western stuff. They also spend (in today’s war time conditions) a fraction of Europe’s 2020s defense budget.

So an actual war with Europe instead of screaming Russian propagandists telling funny fairy tales about being “at war with NATO” for years now is consequence enough.

I wonder if there is a single country in Europe ready to receive the amount of Shahed drones Ukraine receives almost daily.

Yes, all of them in fact. It’s called deterrence.

Nobody is building systems to constanty destroy hundreds of drones each day. Just like no one (but a few very persistent morons) builds walls to keep attackers away. The actual protection is the consequences for the attacker. Guess what Ukraine would pick between ten thousands of anti-air systems (the amount you would need to protect an actual country, not just some points of strategic interest) and EU-/NATO-membership.

There is no glory in prevention. Also the ones saving money by not being prepared are not liable for the chaos and its ramifications.

But we are obviously moronic Europeans, so how would we able to remember such complicated facts like “winter exists”.

PS: Euronews was bought by Alpac Capital, whose CEO is best buddy with Orban. So I would expect a similiar trajectory for their content quality like Politico or other “news” bought by right-wing populists.

“We want to show the automotive industry that sustainable and practical design really is achievable”

Funny to think they don’t know already. But sustainable isn’t the goal, maximising profits is.

The original post says “[…] I am quite certain that some of the wording was NOT originally written in German.”

The “Wenn ich mich festlegen müsste…” part however answers the question if it’s a singular or multiple authors. And it mentions one main author who got additional input from someone else which probably got translated via a translation tool. Then: “How do I come the this conclusion? The cumbersome, highly individual style runs through large parts of the text; however, individual sentences differ greatly in style.” And: “What else is irritating? Sentences densely packed with numerical facts, alternating with entire paragraphs of abstract ideological argumentation, almost clichéd; but without clear reference to the facts, as if the facts had been added later.”

So we have: multiple authors, very different wrting styles, no proper editing to make this one whole text; some expressions probably not originating in German; facts and numbers obviously added independently -again in another style- trying to give it more legitimacy.

Sorry, but where exactly is this all disagreeing with my comment? So yeah. Calling this whole text an AI translation because of singular sentences and expressions that are very obviously by another co-author, just like the also added paragraphs trying to justify the rest with numbers, is desinformation. That’s what I said. And the very discussion you linked says the same.

was written in Russian and machine-translated into German

Don’t spread such easy to debunk desinformation when the full text is publically available.

It’s a whole fucking manifest full of ideological anti-technology bullshit but actually well written phrasing- and grammatical-wise. And then there are a few single sentences between whole elaborate sections added in a very different writing style. One set of “we tried to add numbers and fact to give the rambling some additional legitimacy” and a few singular sentences and expressions that sound strange or wooden in native German, including misspellings.

Claiming the whole text is a translation (and why “machine-translated” even? Just because it’s cool now to use AI?) is idiotic when every native can see instantly that it’s not true. The main author definitely speaks/writes native level German. At times it’s even written overly complex, trying to convey notions of high literature/education.

There are however also clues to suggest additional authors/editing… with at least one co-authors probably being non-native.

Oversimplifying facts to make your argument stick when those claims are really easy to debunk is just feeding the usual conspiracy theory morons.

If the US want to remove itself from influence

But they don’t. They are simply governed by morons who want to replace all that “nonsense” with the only actual influence they understand military force.

Wait… criminalisation doesn’t work and just makes unregulated and black markets grow?

Who would have thought?

Sure, there is a usecase for this. But sperate buffers and varying (and often unintuitive) behavior of software and which buffer is used how is a much bigger hurdle for people not used to it than that “middle-click pasting is confusing” bullshit…

As far as I understand it, this is a (social) media exaggeration. But a lot of the F-35’s capabilities, in particular the stealth and networking that are the main selling point, depend on constant adaptions and updates of the electronic systems.

Sure, we can talk about conspiracy theories of a possible killswitch backdoor hidden in the code. But that wouldn’t even be F-35 specific. The more interesting aspect is logistics/spares and software updates for that very high-maintenance jet with modern electronics.

No, what actually makes sense is a proper unification of different copy/paste buffers that is nowadays still mostly improvised and only achieved through very different 3rd party tools (for me using the panel from xfce it’s xfce4-clipman for example that keeps highlighting text and middle-click buffers synchronised with ctrl-c/ctrl-v or ctrl-insert/shift-insert…).

The problem is not accidently pasting something with a middle-click, but not knowing what is in one buffer, what is in another one and which one a program is using.

I said that diversification isn’t the goal. They have geographic and economic reasons. Actual diversification in military equipment for the sake of it is stupid because the most important thing in war (and the actual much bigger cost) is logistics.

it does not make sense to create blackouts in residential districts

Translated from the weird manifesto: “We do not assume that this has resulted in 100,000 households being disconnected from the grid, but rather that they have only been disconnected from that gas-fired power station’s grid.”

Their planning and reasoning seems to be even wilder than their textual ramblings.

They basically hallucinate that damaging the grid will only cut of the power plant and force the company to buy electricity on short notice somewhere else for much inflated prices.
