A German state is ditching Windows and Microsoft Office for Linux and LibreOffice on the 30,000 PCs it uses for local government functions (www.theregister.com)

Schleswig-Holstein, Germany’s most northern state, is starting its switch from Microsoft Office to LibreOffice, and is planning to move from Windows to Linux on the 30,000 PCs it uses for local government functions....

Thoughts on a few recent games

Mirror’s Edge - This is a game I’ve been meaning to play for some time. A few years back I played the first couple of levels on a friend’s PS3 and recalled it being a fun experience. So when it went on sale for under £2 on Steam I couldn’t say no. It holds up exceptionally well for a game from 2008! The stylised...

It’s a shame they never made a sequel

But they did make a more open world reboot/prequel

My main issue with the game was actually just the grappling hook. For a parkour game. It felt cheap having to use one, and dumb that you could only use it in specific poibts rather than anywhere.

Otherwise, being open world makes it at least worth a play.

Completely agree about the Strategy Guide nature of those crash games. Some of the levels you’d have to go all the way to the end, just to run all the way back to the beginning.

In a linear game like crash, often with one way ledges, I wouldn’t have even considered going backwards most times.

Nonetheless, Naughty Dog always puts out hits

I would really like to automate my workflow and organize my library, but I like to seed things forever. How do you automatically retrieve metadata to reorganize folders and filenames, while still being able to seed? Is creating a second copy of the files the only way, or is there something I’m missing?

I’ve started reading the guide on the subject. So now my problem is that I have different zfs datasets separating my library, and I suspect hardlinks won’t work across them. So I’ll have to rethink how I organize my filesystem.

Saying he was the Messiah in and of itself was subversive to established thought.

The Jews at the time thought the Messiah would come in clad in armor, sword in hand, on a white horse, come to slay their enemies.

Instead he rolled up humbly on a donkey talking nonsense like “love each other, treat others kindly”

The normal phrase is “Uncle Tom” based on the character from Uncle Tom’s Cabin. It’s used to describe a black person who sells out other black people. Both Uncle Ruckus and Tom from the Boondocks are based on this idea.

But this is a double burn referencing Clarence Thomas, the supreme court judge who is probably the most famous example of an Uncle Tom.
