Your mom needs to be introduced to George Carlin, starting with his classic Class Clown album. The section leading up to and including the Seven Words You Can’t Say on TV (at the time it was recorded in the mid 1970s) particularly addresses how words themselves are just a collection of meaningless syllables without the intent ascribed to them.
Methinks you have too much faith in those wielding the power to demand this. Examples abound of assholes - anyone from forum mods to police officers - abusing their power against those they look down upon. Yeah, it often comes back on them eventually, but not always, and in the meantime the lives of those they target can be made a living hell if they so choose.
“Questionable activity” is an easily abused term for power-tripping assholes. Especially with right-wing politics becoming so prevalent world-wide, it’s easy (for example) to imagine a scenario where a group of LGBTQ+ types are targeted for harassment - being forced to choose between losing their safe haven or outing themselves & putting themselves at risk of far worse.
“Evidence” being so vague and malleable a term that it’s insanely easy to abuse.
Thing is Discord will have no problems getting them to do it. By the time any legal proceedings against it work their way through the legal system, the damage will long since have been done. Discord will have made the money from the data they collected, the AI models will be done, and the need for more pictures will be non-existent.
I’ve tried watching it at least 3x now - it’s just such a slow build that by somewhere around ep 4-5 I stop watching & have to start over again when going back months later. It was interesting, but boring at the same time.
Ah, left the important bit out - good call, then.
She did. You know it. You just don’t want to know if you missed out on something good.
Players can be expensive, but the most significant reason is probably having to get up and switch discs to watch something else. The vast majority of consumers have no idea how to rip a disc, nor the know-how required to set up a media server.
Between the wide prevalence of ad-blockers, the multitude of privacy-enhancing extensions and options, the absolutely minimal useful marketing data to be gleaned from a visitor to their site, and their need to keep the lights on while supplying the world with the fruits of their significant work for free… I’m fine with that.
It’s not like they’re injecting stalkerware onto your OS installs.
I didn’t mean to imply you didn’t have priorities, just that a couple of them seemed to be conflicting. To me, what you described called more for reliability than cutting edge. I understand your concern with getting security updates expediently, but you can get those with less system stability risk using a more standard distro.
I haven’t used a SUSE in a very long time, but as I recall Tumbleweed is an official product of theirs. I’ve not heard of Rhino until now, which gives me pause in considering it - let alone the fact it’s not backed by a known significant team. There’s nothing wrong with that, but when setting up a server like you’re describing I’d rather it not require a significant amount of time at random once I’ve got it up and running, which is what can happen when relying upon less vetted software.
It’s your choice, obviously. Rhino looks like it might make a nice desktop to play with, but I personally would really be hesitant to use it for a server because I just don’t have the time to deal with problems at random - I’ve got enough of those already in my life. Your priorities are obviously different, and there’s no denying the fact that even things going awry on your server can be a plus from a learning perspective. I would really be concerned with the project being abandoned since it’s just a year old, tho.
Good luck whichever way you choose to go.
I’m confused. Your OP seems to describe wanting something stable and “fault-tolerant,” but then you go and ask about an unofficial rolling distro? I think you should figure out what your priorities are first.
Yeah, that’s actually a very good point. Guess I could probably adapt more easily than I was imagining.
In the comics (at least those from my decades ago childhood), it’s depicted as him seeing the same as normal people do - just through stuff. As such, I’ve always assumed it’s not actually X-Rays proper & they just used that phrase to convey the concept of seeing through solid objects.
He probably didn’t have a choice no matter when he got the power - I doubt he knew how to control it right off the bat.
The point was he has “X-Ray” vision, which lets him see through solid objects. Ergo, he likely couldn’t help seeing them from time to time until he learned to control that power.
What question?
I think George Michael’s Freedom hit that mark like three decades ago. Became a huge hit (one of my all-time favorite songs). Still hasn’t changed a thing because the execs don’t care as long as it sells, and they get their money.
Tomorrow never comes.
