Maybe put in the title that it’s for RISC-V? Otherwise people will just say use Mint.

Headless VNC on Mint

I installed x11vnc on Mint and it works fine as long as I have a monitor plugged into the server. I want to run the server without a monitor though. That apparently doesn’t work with Cinnamon. I already bought a dummy plug to simulate a monitor but that seems clunky. Is there a better way? I’m also open to using a different...

Kansas Is About to Pass the Most Extreme Age Verification Law Yet (www.404media.co)

An age verification bill in Kansas that is the most extreme in the country has passed both House and Senate and is on its way to the governor’s desk. The bill will make sites with more than 25 percent adult content liable to heavy fines if they don’t verify that visitors are over the age of 18. It also calls being gay...

I’ve heard a theory that it was a myth based on the transition from hunter gatherers to farming. In the Euphrates and Tigris triangle, living conditions were very favourable for humans and may have seemed like paradise in hindsight. Then population pressure triggered the transition to farming, i.e. toiling “by the sweat of your brow”.

That’s what myths are.

I never understand this obsession with “bloat” when you can buy a 1 TB SSD for € 50.

Do you live in North Korea?

Fixed a typo in my /etc/fstab that prevented the NAS from mounting. I am a bear of little brain. But I’m also proof that you don’t have to be some master hacker to successfully run Linux.

Disney Board Foe Nelson Peltz Questions ‘Woke’ Marvel Films: ‘Why Do I Have to Have a Marvel [Movie] That’s All Women? Why Do I Need an All-Black Cast?’ (variety.com)

Nelson Peltz, the activist investor agitating to win two Disney board seats, criticized the company’s “woke” strategy — specifically questioning Marvel’s “Black Panther” and “The Marvels,” which featured Black and women leads, respectively....

Do you have a few minutes to talk about our Lord and Saviour, Linus Torvalds?

But it makes Baby Jesus cry if you do the deed without an old man in a dress having mumbled some magic words!

You’re a true hero!

With allies like that, who needs enemies?

What’s next? North Korea as chair of the human rights forum?

He already had his payday. The suckers will be left holding the bag when it all inevitably goes south.

It’s refreshing to not have so many Trumpers. They’re still around but not as prevalent. Overall this is just so much friendlier.

Sounds like snake oil to me. If it were that easy to induce fusion, it would have been done long ago.

They won’t even have enough shovels for 10 million soldiers. Guess we’ll be seeing meat waves of guys with pointy sticks, then.

I’m sure that’s what they all look like.

The janitor in your office is planning something too! He went undercover for thirty years just to frame you!

Russia says 60 dead, 145 injured in concert hall raid; Islamic State group claims responsibility (apnews.com)

Assailants burst into a large concert hall in Moscow on Friday and sprayed the crowd with gunfire, killing over 60 people, injuring more than 100 and setting fire to the venue in a brazen attack just days after President Vladimir Putin cemented his grip on power in a highly orchestrated electoral landslide....

But how many people were killed by the attackers and how many by the “security” forces?

Carnage on the streets of Port-au-Prince as world stalls on a promised intervention for Haiti (www.cnn.com)

A woman hustles her young child into a waiting car, half-dragging him as she shields his eyes. Other family members follow with heavy suitcases, averting their eyes too. They’re leaving the city, even though the drive through gang-controlled roads is risky....

Sounds like a veritable libertarian paradise.

NASA should really rethink their policy of sending astronauts on Soyus.

For political reasons. They’re trying to keep the cooperation going.

You’re completely wrong. A Tesla supercharger is a fast charger, so you usually don’t need to wait for more than half an hour to charge. And that’s something you’d only do when you go on a longer trip. If you charge at a level two charger, which does take a couple of hours, you don’t wait around. I usually change at work, i.e. I plug in when i get there in the morning, go to my office and get the car before going to lunch. Zero hassle.

Gaza is getting less than half the humanitarian aid it needs to avoid famine (english.elpais.com)

[The] U.N. World Food Programme estimates that at least 300 trucks of food are needed every day to meet the basic needs of the population. During the first half of March, an average of 159 trucks a day have entered Gaza, representing 40% of the minimum amount required, according to U.N. data. Before the Israeli offensive, an...

So they’re slowing down the genocide to achieve plausible deniability. Right. Gotcha.

The solution is obviously another coup in Guatemala to reduce their power usage

Sure. Twenty shekels well invested.

If a man finds a girl who is a virgin, who is not engaged, and seizes her and lies with her and they are discovered, then the man who lay with her shall give to the girl’s father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall become his wife because he has violated her; he cannot divorce her all his days. Deuteronomy 22:28-29

Who ever said anything about sheep? But it’s fifty shekels anyway. Damn inflation!

Diplomjodler ,

Completely agree. Never once did I think “I wish I was on Windows” since I’ve been using Mint

That’s because the two major VR ecosystems are run by companies that are the antithesis of open source.
