'It's a mess': Biden turns to family on his path forward after his disastrous debate (www.nbcnews.com)

Moreover, according to a senior Democratic official, the party leadership would have much more control over choosing a replacement if Biden were to drop out after receiving the nomination than if he did so beforehand. Once a candidate is officially nominated, there is a process for the Democratic National Committee members to...

Worst is UTC vs IAT

uis ,

UTC is timezone too. It has leap seconds. IAT is atomic time. It is perfect.

uis ,

Isn’t that UT0?

uis ,

UTC is expressed using positive or negative offset from IAT

uis OP ,

/bin and /usr/bin (or sbin) have never been well separated, to the point where many distributions just symlink to /usr anyway.

They were(see FHS) and you show exactly how broken it became.

/usr supposed to have files that are needed only after first part of boot procees before mounting filesystems.

uis OP , (edited )

Think about booting over network. Or having /usr on another drive. Including even network drive. Think about dumb terminals(wrong cetury) thin clients. For example they can use small disk to quickly boot wihout downloading kernel and initramfs and use NFS for /usr and /home.

uis OP ,

And use bigger bandaid. Meanwhile initramfs and split-usr would greatly complement each other.

uis OP ,

True, network boot is not best example. Shared /usr is much better one. For example if you are school that wants to buy 100 thin clients for very cheap.

uis ,

Not as easy as Gentoo based on what I heard. But installing Gentoo takes quite some time.

uis ,

True. It also had binary packages for huge packages like firefox and libreoffice for a very long time.

uis ,

If you say for example that Cuba under Castro had a successful literacy program, then there are people who will accuse you of being a tankie just for that.

$COUNTRY had a successful literacy program under $LEFT_GOVERMENT.

There is russian meme “voting for stool just to vote against UR”.

uis ,

Does not load from Russia, broken when loaded through tor. I don’t understand Spanish, but looks legit.

uis ,

Maybe opposite? Maybe women live lomger because they retire earlier?

uis ,

Look in this thread: lemmy.sdf.org/comment/12482757

uis ,

Why from that side of beaver curve?

uis ,

Ah. Makes sense.

uis ,

And it’s just one year! Damn, 20th century was very full of events. And 21st century started with Putino-Ukrainian war.

uis ,
uis ,

So everyone who do not fight for Putin’s yacts and palaces are pussies too?

uis ,

Telegram is basically the safest place in Russia’s digital space.

Yep. Alternatives are:

  1. Mailru trash - comrade major knows everything
  2. VK trash - comrade major knows everything
  3. Whatsapp - comrade major knows your phone number, which means he knows who you are

Everything else is not popular.

these people must have been living under a rock

Russians are very advanced when it comes to the internet.

Putin does try to bring Russia into stone age. Russians are very advanced thanks for 1990-2016 period when goverment didn’t try to destroy internet.

They spend more time in it because real life sucks more than in other countries.

This is true. We probably have second worst healthcare after America.

uis ,

He meant it is not controlled by FSB like VK and mailru shit and doesn’t show phone number to entire world like whatsapp.

uis , (edited )

lavender.ltgc.i2p exists. It’s Lemmy instance avaliable from i2p and tor. But it’s mostly pony instance.

uis ,

A subset of society that’s marginalized at best and killed at the worst doesn’t care about who can read and influence their communication? That seems highly shortsighted to me.

https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fupload.wikimedia.org%2Fwikipedia%2Fcommons%2F2%2F21%2FAlexey_Navalny_%2528cropped%2529_2.jpg

That we know of. Given that the company behind Telegram has been involved in various sketchy situations I wouldn’t bet my wellbeing on a service that might or might not share information with a corrupt government…

Share informarion with Putin? No, very unlikely. Ban opposition channels during elections? Confirmed yes.

Apple banned opposition’s apps durung elections too. And Google.

uis ,

Not sure about Signal. I remember times when it was phone number focused. Having visible phone number in Russia means FSB might knock on your door.

The only thing better than telegram I can think of and relatively popular is Matrix. But even in my university I don’t know about anyone else, who uses it.

uis ,

Linking to upstream source instead of copying answer that will be outdated is neither gatekeeping nor “RTFM toxicity”

uis ,

have you tried running sfc /scannow?

To be fair this is kinda “did you try to reboot?” kind of answer. Stupid, but effective.

Just reinstall!

IT’S TIME TO REINSTALL ШINDOWS! This is why I love Linux community, especially Gentoo. Reinstalling system is rarely considered to be valid answer.

uis ,

Fedora usb creation is a nightmare and can potentially f up your bios if something goes wrong.

I have to ask obvious question first. How?

uis ,

Why shouldn’t VR work without Novidia?

uis ,

Snappy and bloaty

uis ,

If you have cutting edge hardware

If you have cutting edge hardware, you would probably need linux-next kernel. Otherwise you don’t have cutting edge hardware.

uis ,

I’m not sure what you mean by broken bios. If you has broken bios, you wouldn’t be able to reinstall Mac OS.

Also any formatting tool in any OS should be able to turn bootable USB stick back to storage only USB stick. Windows, Linux, Mac, Haiku, *BSD, original Unix. Anything.

Disclamer: last time I used OpenSUSE was very long time ago. Probably somewhere in 2018.

When I switched back to Gentoo, Gentoo had more packages in base repo, was more configurable and easier to fix and felt more convenient to me(especially for development). Also easier on resources in casual use. It was important to me since at the time my system had very small amount of RAM, while I wanted to host minecraft server with many mods and play on it with friends. Installing cross-compilers is very easy with crossdev. And I think there were problems with having multiple versions of gcc installed. The only downside I can think of is slower update process(especially compiling firefox/chromium/libreoffice/rust), but in return you get the system, which if breaks, you know how to fix it.

Would I recommend Gentoo to everyone who wants to install Linux on their own regular x86 computers and be what people call a regular user and doesn’t want to understand how system works? Rather no.

Would I recommend Gentoo for someone who wants to install Linux for their granny and already knows Linux or even has Gentoo? Rather yes, stereotypical granny doesn’t care about distro, she only needs browser and working sound.

Would I recommend Gentoo for any kind of developers(except webdevs, they are separate species)? Absolutely.

For gamers? It is one of reasons I choose Gentoo.

For tinkerers? You know the answer.

For wierd ARM/MIPS/RISC-V/ELBRUS computer? Very yes.

uis ,

OpenSUSE Thumbleweed or KDE Neon.

uis ,

It was counterpoint to “send you in a ring without actually telling me how to install”. It does.

I also agree that installing it is rather lengthy.

uis ,

I’m not sure why you think snaps are snappy. They aren’t.

It is pun. Snaps are bloaty and not snappy.

As a heavy gamer, never say those words 😂

Well, recommendation isn’t based only on being gamer. But I noticed heavy gamers tend to more proactive in learning how their system works and tweak their system to their needs. I got one converted into Arch user. It’s like heavy gamers have attention and initiative.

and as IT student, this is really interesting.

It was interesting even to some school students. I think I first Installed Gentoo somewhere in 6th grade.

How well do containers

Should be fine. Long time ago I tried to use lxc. It worked.

virtual machines

KVM works really well, I didn’t try Xen.

and flatpaks work?

Didn’t need, didn’t try. There is nothing preventing them from working.

I was thinking about learning self hosting, emacs, and xmonad on a pi4.

I am running Gentoo 24/7 on noname chinese TV box on Allwinner A10 with 1GB of RAM. I wrote device tree myself and compiled mainline u-boot. Most of packages I precompile on my desktop with crossdev, that has exactly same make.conf. Same for Rock64 SBC, but it’s sitting powered off. Also I did small modifications to devicetree for it as well. I can answer some qutsions.

TV box runs tor node 24/7 and private search of fimfarchive.

Personal experience. Go search for linux users among football fans. Both footballs. You won’t find as often.

uis ,

I am sure Win7 installer has it and if, I didn’t get early dementia, Win10 installer has too.

uis ,

Ok. Marvel fans then.

uis ,

on the basis of evergreening IP laws (a fair complaint, imo)

Hard to disagree. Nature isn’t something to patent.

Both are titans on whoose shoulders we stand.

From LKML:

So I’m going to have a HARD REQUIREMENT that any compiler complaints need to be really really sane. They need to detect when people do things like this on purpose, and they need to SHUT THE ^&% UP about the fact that wrap-around happens.

Any tool that is so stupid as to complain about wrap-around in the above is a BROKEN TOOL THAT NEEDS TO BE IGNORED.

Really. This is non-negotiable.

And no, the answer is ABSOLUTELY NOT to add cognitive load on kernel developers by adding yet more random helper types and/or functions.

We already expect a lot of kernel developers. We should not add on to that burden because of your pet project.

Be the solution, not the problem.

Is he asshole?
