Stamets is annoying, I blocked them, but regarding Picard Maneuver I agree

Okay, but there’s no way to know whether that “intelligence official” is telling the truth.

But the burden of proof is on you. At this time, you are simply spreading an unfounded conspiracy theory.

Longtime Arch user, first time Debian enjoyer

As the title says, I’ve been using various flavours of Arch basically since I started with Linux. My very first Linux experience was with Ubuntu, but I quickly switched to Manjaro, then Endeavour, then plain Arch. Recently I’ve done some spring cleaning, reinstalling my OS’s. I have a pretty decent laptop that I got for...

The discs are also digital! The correct terminology would be “virtual”.

Maybe we should really think about a unification. But one originating from Taiwan that brings democracy and liberty to enslaved mainland China.

You see, this is the entirely wrong and often cited cliché that people think of when talking about war between Russia and NATO, but in reality, no such war between superpowers would be fought with nuclear weapons because there is no incentive for it, conventional warfare is much more desirable, even for the losing party. That’s why I think that we shouldn’t be afraid of openly opposing and fighting the People’s Republic in the Taiwan Strait in the defense of the actual China. And even if these autocracies would be stupid enough to use nuclear weapons then we’ve still got systems for intercepting ballistic missiles in-flight in the upper atmosphere. A war between superpowers would not nearly be as disastrous as the Russians and Chinese want you to think.

But can you not also just scale up the defense systems in parallel with the ballistic missiles carrying warheads? If we can expend billions for the construction of thousands of intercontinental missiles, can we then not also build tens of thousands of interceptors, maybe a handful for each potential incoming nuke?

Thank you for this, that’s a real gem!

Too little, too late. Military intervention or nothing, Israel and Gaza need to be taken in by UN peacekeeping forces and a new dialogue needs to be started about how to find a permanent solution for the coexistence of Palestinians and Israelis. If the need exists, maybe even deconstruct the current Israel to make way for a more tolerant and democratic nation that respects people of all origin.

With LineageOS, you pretty much are running AOSP on your phone.

Publicly available data should be accessible to all people, period. Regardless of the personal preferences of any useless billionaire.

Okay, but what about migrating the repository to Codeberg?

But theoretically not that difficult? I mean, the whole point of Unix was that it is written in C and therefore platform-independent. Principally, all you need to port a POSIX Unix OS is a C compiler for the architecture that you’re targeting.

Why should it be? I drive Arch on my desktop and Debian 12 Bookworm on my laptop, they are very different distributions but both serve me very well.

New to Linux? Ubuntu Isn’t Your Only Option (www.howtogeek.com)

Ubuntu’s popularity often makes it the default choice for new Linux users. But there are tons of other Linux operating systems that deserve your attention. As such, I’ve highlighted some Ubuntu alternatives so you can choose based on your needs and requirements—because conformity is boring.

I am kind of afraid of the corporate influence on OpenSUSE. Same for the relationship between Ubuntu and Canonical

Please do not change that, I love being able to copy via drag and drop instead of just moving because this way, my clipboard is not polluted unnecessarily

Wow you’re so weird. Saying something like “science fundamentalism” already proves that you’re an absolute nut job

Kerbal Space Program! Sunk 20 hours into that one over the last two days alone!

This is literally just whataboutism. You must be degenerate if you think that there’s a correlation between the research performance of the listed countries and their patent laws. There are dozens of more useful and much more relevant indicators for why these nations are disadvantaged in this regard. But just stick to your belief that North Korea is what it is because it doesn’t have patent laws lol.

Also, for you to better understand the harm that software patents caused and are causing, consider reading Free Software, Free Society by Richard Stallman.
