taanegl,

I’m just hoping this paves the way to code with Southern dialect

Starting to use "soulseek" do I need VPN

So I use a VPN when torrenting as per usual but with Soulseek I wish to share my music with others and that requires me to open a port. I have no problem doing so I just do not pay for a VPN that can do this at the current price I am paying. Is it possible/what are the chances of me getting in trouble ISP wise from using...

taanegl,

Bro, don’t crap on SoulSeek. Music collectors all over the world use it. You can find some rare gems on there you won’t find in Spotify, Tidal, YouTube or any other music platform.

And comparing it to limewire is kind of unfair.

taanegl,

The Sapmi are really taking up the fight here, you guys, not just for them, but for Norwegians as well.

For some context, the windmills in Norway are EXTREMELY disliked. Partly because trusting cost cutting European companies was a mistake (they are proned to error have a tendency to fall apart) and partly because they make the Norwegian landscape look ugly AF.

Fun fact about Norwegians, is that we are suppusedly “national romantics”, in that norwegians supposedly worship the forests , the mountains, the fjords… until the deforestation, wanting to dump coals in the fjords, the fucking cruise liner tourism my fucking GOD the cruise liner tourism…

Suffice to say, our neo-liberal parties are a bunch of toadies. I and many other Norwegians thank the Sapmi for checking the powers that be. But we still gotta protest, we still gotta make sure collective power isn’t trumped by elitism.

Also, the government “gave back” a ton of land to a Baron family, which was acquired by the Norwegian government because all nature belongs to Norwegians. Its now being defrosted as we speak. See how neo-liberalism is also fucking up Norway?

This is it. It’s for your late sipping Starbucks developer, who needs buttons to click… those luscious, UX’y buttons… I WANNA CLICK THEM!

Okay, so I’m the target demographic. Guilty. Although nowadays I use nspawn, like the maniac I am.

taanegl,

Well, fuck. They just made Ubuntu the most relevant distro. Not like it wasn’t before, but now they knocked it up a notch - BAM!

taanegl,

Listen, we here are Orphan Crushing Incorporated are a family business…

taanegl,

Historically speaking, IME has been a low hanging fruit of attack vectors and intel has arguably speaking had worse problems with security vulnerabilities on hardware and firmware levels than say AMD or ARM. A bit anecdotal, but there you are.

taanegl, (edited )

AMD and ARM also have their remote standards, but none as distrusted as IME.

Also, remember that vulnerability where IME could be enabled through the internet by a malicious actor? That was fun…

I can see this being useful for NixOS. It’s still a glimmer in the postman’s eye, and we’re WAITING for systemd src to come with certain options to make the attaching and reattaching of systemd easier.

But I could easily see nixpkgs implement functions that allow nixos-rebuild switch to use either live patching method, or even implementing one specifically for NixOS.

This would be twice as neat, because switch is already magical in how it shifts from one system to another. If you could then also live patch the kernel? It just adds another super power.

It’s not just that, but this lawyer team is like a super lawyer team, who knows the legaleese regarding apartheid. They are the perfect candidates to represent Palestine in international courts.

taanegl,

I just don’t know.

taanegl,

Just New York and California alone. If the expected turnout is in the millions, one can only hope IBM isn’t behind the cloud infrastructure - word to Obama care.

taanegl,

They took our jobs!

taanegl,

I have a high pressure water system at the ready. Remember: if it isn’t peeling skin off flesh, it’s not effective enough.

taanegl,

Scuse?

taanegl,

They just want you to know they won’t be going soft on you.

taanegl,

Could I ask for an explanation of why you’re leaving? I’m a bit in the dark here.

taanegl,

I’m sorry, but you just lost your job and have had your priveliges revoked. Don’t worry though. All you need to do is meet a local liberal for retraining to get it back. We will furnish you with a church and talking points so that you may return to the labour force.

Have a lovely day, and remember: if it’s gotta be complex, make it military industrial.

taanegl,

How come I take the south African government less seriously? Oh yeah, the centralisation of power, the centralisation of wealth, the vast amount of unemployment, poverty and corruption. I mean, who do they think they are? The US?

Is Ubuntu deserving the hate? (lemmy.ml)

Long story short, I have a desktop with Fedora, lovely, fast, sleek and surprisingly reliable for a near rolling distro (it failed me only once back around Fedora 34 or something where it nuked Grub). Tried to install on a 2012 i7 MacBook Air… what a slog!!! Surprisingly Ubuntu runs very smooth on it. I have been bothering all...

taanegl,

Snaps are centralised packaging, a’la Apple App Store or Google Play. Now if someone forked snapd, added third party repo and made It so you could select which repo is the main one, that’d be a start.

But as long as Canonical commits to a centralised form of distribution with no third party support I’m going to advise desktop users to stay away from Ubuntu.

Look, it’s a low level employee of a faceless corporation!

GET 'IM!

Jokes aside, thanks for the transparency, and salute to you and your coworkers for trying to weather the storm caused by “shifting paradigms”… that’s what they call it, right? I know the execs can shift my paradigm, that’s for sure.

Peace and love.

taanegl,

Biden sucks… but vote for him. I mean the two party system sucks, first passed the post sucks, gerrymandering sucks… but the republican party sucks even more. I’d rather have a dottering old liberal than an outright fascist, and at the same time the system won’t be reformed because of an election cycle. People need to organise, get off their lazy butts. But since you ain’t doing that, there’s only one thing to do.

Vote Biden. Don’t be dumb. It’s like the only sane alternative, no matter how insane that sounds.
