i’d avoid BIOS-based RAID… it doesn’t really offer many benefits over linux-based raid like MDADM, and MDADM offers a LOT of up-sides for portability, repairability, diagnostics, etc

let’s not go too far though… the holders of h264/h265 did put a lot of money and effort into developing the codec: a new actual thing… they are not patent trolls, who by definition produce nothing new other than legal mess
i’d say that we need a way of communicating and making group decisions, but government is an organisation that makes the decisions of the group… a government isn’t a process; a government is an entity… if your group decision making is a process rather than delegated power, then you don’t have a government but you may be able to effectively run your society
of course, but they are complex problems and you shouldn’t poo poo a potential mitigation to 1 because it negatively impacts another
the solutions to complex problems shouldn’t require being solutions to every complex problem
the plastic problem is separate from the carbon problem though… we don’t ban plastics because we’re concerned about climate change; we ban them because we are worried that microplastics are causing significant health effects to both humans and most other animals
wake up, time for some SYN 😈
zero days and all sorts of things don’t get fixed in updates… the fact that the software with the security issue has access to write to disk in a manner that can be executed is also a huge problem
wordpress is only low maintenance if you don’t care about or are ignorant to security
and also the flip side: who the fuck cares if it’s flat and the government is lying about it?
add tailscale and you’re golden
as a linux professional, congrats you’re a junior and have a lot to learn about the world
and literally literally means literally but now we use it to mean figuratively
turns out language is about use, not origin
Hamas terrorist attacks also fall into that definition
yup you’re absolutely right and nobody here is disputing that… this isn’t a black and white one side good one side bad situation: BOTH hamas and israel are fucking awful here… you’re also probably going to say that it’s hamas’s fault that civilians are being killed because they’re using them as human shields… also right! however, that doesn’t absolve israel of all responsibility: there’s a lot more they could be doing to reduce the civilian casualties
civilians had chosen to cooperate
yeah cool how about you leave your home and basically everything you own so that it can be bombed to shit and see if you just cooperate… don’t blame the people who are just bystanders
that word doesn’t mean what you think it means
actually, i think it’s you that doesn’t understand what the word means so here’s the definition:
Genocide is the intentional destruction of a people in whole or in part. In 1948, the United Nations Genocide Convention defined genocide as any of five “acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group”. These five acts were: killing members of the group, causing them serious bodily or mental harm, imposing living conditions intended to destroy the group, preventing births, and forcibly transferring children out of the group. Victims are targeted because of their real or perceived membership of a group, not randomly.
partial targeting is still genocide
are as likely to die from covid, as unvaccinated elderly people
and that’s the bit of grey that some people seem to latch onto: some vaccines (like the COVID vaccines) don’t prevent disease: they reduce the likelihood or severity of disease. that doesn’t mean they don’t work, it just means that they only work most of the time… which is a whole shit load better than none of the time
depends which “you” you’re talking about
makes no sense for slovakia in the next few years that’s for sure
but for fico…
if he can get political points by spewing russian BS that russia then backs up (both directly and indirectly) then that helps him personally politically
and who knows if he’s getting something compensatory from russia for it
re peertube discovery, i saw this the other day:
framasoft developed both peertube, and this… i assume to address that exact concern
honestly outside of israel and palestine it’s worrisome that anyone considers either side their team
its a super complex situation and both sides are fucking monstrous, but inside either country it becomes real simple: the other side legitimately might end specifically my life through nothing but random misfortune
outside of that, i don’t see how anyone can think there’s 1 side that’s in the right
probably best not to say “given their initial claim” given that the source is a friend who didn’t say where they’d seen the info
so you may have misinterpreted what they were saying (someone claimed rather than reliable israeli sources claim), they could have misinterpreted what the source was saying, the source could have been exactly like this post and subject to similar accidental misinterpretation, or it could be just straight up misinformation: either accidental or intentional
given the amount of misinformation swirling about the whole situation, i’d probably go with “i had heard” or “i think someone mentioned somewhere” etc
kinda the same reason people suggest something like linux mint over slackware, gentoo, arch, etc… mint is easy to install and is preconfigured to be an easy to use user desktop environment. you can configure any other option to be have like that, but they tend to be a bit more “DIY”, which is great if you know what you’re doing!
dedicated NAS OSes will have good software out of the box that make it easy to configure and manage various common disk-related configurations (RAID, SMB, NFS, etc). you can certainly do all this yourself, but it might not have a pretty, unified user interface, or you might have to deal with software that isn’t compatible with some version of a library that’s in your distro of choice… all resolvable things, but they take time to solve: anywhere from installing a package manually to applying a kernel patch and recompiling the kernel to get something to work
