Fun fact: Conguito character was created in 1960s and influenced by recent Congo independence.

ExLisper,

I mean I always knew that Oscars were mostly about hype and not actual artistic value but getting offended that the most hyped movie of the year didn’t get all the nominations is just weird. Mattel run multi-million, non traditional marketing campaign and got a lot of people exited about the movie. It doesn’t say anything about the acting or directing in it.

ExLisper,

It’s a matter of taste.

ExLisper,

Everyone can leave it open or close it after use. It’s up to them. The next person will know what to do with it in both cases.

ExLisper, (edited )

As it’s name implies, it’s a crime. As such it’s not legitimate but it’s also not a sin. It’s up to each individual and his morality to decide if he wants to be a criminal or not and it’s up to the society to stop criminal behaviors that have negative impact on it as a whole.

ExLisper,

It doesn’t matter, the roll works in both cases. If someone disagrees be the bigger person and just agree with them.

ExLisper,

Sorry, all judgements are final. No returns or appeals.

ExLisper,

Yay. Just don’t watch it if you don’t like it.

ExLisper,

As Sci-Fi? Clearly Star Trek. It’s actual Sci-Fi when Star Wars is just fantasy in space. As franchises both have better and worse movies/shows and can’t be compared objectively.

ExLisper,

I’m pretty sure what he sold was not the code but access to this play store account so that the new owner can push updated version to his current users.

ExLisper,

There were multiple reports about sleazy companies reaching out to developers of popular apps and Chrome addons and offering them money for their accounts. The money is really good but there’s still a lot of devs that can say ‘no’. They will just use to track some people, it’s not a completely new business that will grow and earn them money like Instagram or something.

ExLisper,

Oh my, now they are trying to Marie Curie Linus Torvalds.

ExLisper, (edited )

Marie Curie was Polish but the French pretty much convinced the whole world she was French.

Not to argue about a joke but Linux was ‘better’ because it was free, not because it was technically better. By the time it got actually better than UNIX tons of people have worked on it, not just couple of drunk guys. I think someone just misread what the article says and missed the ‘not’ in ‘need not be expensive’. But if people find it funny it’s cool, it’s not for me to judge anyone’s sense of humour.

ExLisper,

You’re understanding of the concept of nationality seems very basic. There are many different minorities in different countries and sometimes they will identify solely as citizens of this minorities (like Russians in Latvia for example), sometimes they will identify as citizens of the country in which they were born and raised (like some minorities in USA) and sometimes both (like other minorities in USA). The fact that Linus speaks Swedish doesn’t mean anything and he doesn’t even hold Swedish citizenship AFAIK. He holds Finnish and American citizenships so unless you can show me his statements claiming he’s Swedish your arguments here are pointless.

ExLisper,

Yep, typical Marie Curie intent. I guess Swedes don’t have enough famous people.

ExLisper, (edited )

It’s not for you to decide based on arbitrarily chosen data points. If Linus says he’s Finnish (another commenter said he does) then that’s it. Also, think how strange it is to insist that someone has one ethnicity or another. Categorizing people like that based on their genes or language is sooo previous century. Time to move on my friend, time to move on.

ExLisper,

What? You’re confused. I’m saying he’s a Finn. The other guy says he’s Swedish.

XOrg Server and Xwayland Patched Against Multiple Security Vulnerabilities - 9to5Linux (9to5linux.com)

Even if your distro is using Wayland by default, the Xwayland implementation is probably still used for compatibility with X11 apps, so you still need to patch your systems and make sure that the latest version is installed.

ExLisper,

Yeah, they lied. X being dead and full of security issues is just a FUD. Keep calm and carry on using X.

ExLisper,

Come on people, it’s funny. Blind chicken and everything.

ExLisper,

I’m not saying we should just ignore it. I’m saying that it took the time it took (a decade) for Wayland to become a thing because most people don’t need it. Some people do and it’s not getting traction but most people can still safely ignore it.

ExLisper,

This is exactly what will not happen. They clearly talking about different certificate. Read the article.

ExLisper, (edited )

You either can tell that the same certificate was used 1000000 times in one day which means they are being tracked or you don’t track it and one leaked cert can be used by all the minors in Spain. So it’s either useless of bad for privacy.

ExLisper,

BTW Conquistadores Adventum is a really good show about the colonization of Americas. It shows how tough the sailing was but also how brutal the conquest was and tells the stories of people behind it.
