The “don’t break userspace” is a kernel rule. It’s ok to break userspace within (like on library upgrades). The equivalent for Linux would be breaking kernel space, which they do… very often. It’s the reason DKMS exists and why Nvidia can be such a hassle

Wow way to make assumptions huh

It’s a fountain pen

Imagine installing Arch without having to bindmount dev, proc and sys smh my head

Stronger compartmentalization

Fewer

I’d say the current Spanish government is pretty progressive, at least from what I can tell

It doesn’t only refer to those laying the path, but also to those that enable and make alliances with fascists because it’s the convenient thing to do or some of the goals align. E.g. our centrist or rather formally centrist party is sometimes referred as that because they shift the discussion to the right and enact anti-social policies that drive people to the extremist parties though they don’t coalise.

In German, these people and groups are called “Steigbügelhalter”.

Yeah, this one is on Kent… again.

He posted on Patreon that there’ll be a DKMS module. In my opinion, this should have been the option from the very beginning and upstreaming at a later point in time. It would have avoided a lot of drama. And now bcachefs is kind of tainted. The only way I ever see it back in mainline is there is an independent downstream of Kent’s kernel that has no connection to him whatsoever.

Shame because I had very good experience with the filesystem. Definitely better than when btrfs was new. But Linus is unfortunately right; Kent is unable to follow agreed collaboration rules.

Unfortunate situation that could have been avoided entirely. Though I don’t want to be too harsh on Kent. He spent a lot of time and work on bcachefs and it’s his most important project. As such, he’s more passionate about all of this. But the same can be said for Linus and the kernel on the other side.

PipeWire my beloved 😍

I can use WIFI with Airplane mode, is my IMEI being transferred to any place in this situation?

No

Can you elaborate how it is compared with MAC? What might happen to how cell tower compares IMEI and MAC when I spoof MAC?

A cell tower doesn’t care about your MAC. In fact you can have devices without a MAC in a mobile network (like dumbphones). However, a malicious entity might be able to correlate these two with a setup where he controls both cellular and Wi-Fi equipment.

Radio here refers to your mobile (non-wifi) wireless connection, though technically, Wi-Fi is also radio and can be used for triangulation purposes by access points. Technically speaking, any communications method that uses electromagnetic waves is radio, regardless of modulation and data encoding.

Does this mean our IMEI is identified by cell tower as long as the airplane mode is off?

The IMEI is how the cell tower differentiates the individual network participants. It can be compared to a MAC address.

These statements come a lot easier as a former diplomat. Let’s see if any of the current bunch have the balls to say it

Plastic is such a fucking disease. There are so few items you can buy in a supermarket that aren’t somehow covered in it. I get it, it’s super convenient. Which is why as long as it’s legal, the situation won’t change.

I think heavy taxes on plastic could change the situation; if plastic packaging isn’t economically viable, alternatives will be used.

This would be totally unpopular I’m sure, so it will probably won’t come before climate change killed us.

Yeah, this is the thing that’s ignored because it would let the whole narrative collapse.

Either you can’t deport them because they’re American citizens, or you can’t deport them because they’re not subject to your laws anyway. But in the end, this would just lead to (more) unlawful / illegal deportations.

Have you never gone back to your door to see if you actually did lock it?

Edit: tough crowd tonight huh

Can’t blame them honestly.

I live comfortably here, but that’s because my income is rather good. Is nice here if you make little or a lot. Anyone else is under huge pressure from taxes and other financial obligations like health insurance, retirement insurance and unemployment insurance. Around 60k - 65k gross income per year is where it hurts the most, where parts of your income are in the 40% tax bracket but you’re still in public health insurance. As a single, you’ll get a little less than 40k net out of that (2022 numbers, now probably worse because health insurance got more expensive). Rent close to the big cities is often over 1000 per month, buying at the moment out of the question.

All of this gets you… Germany, which isn’t bad but also not Spain for example (where I live / spent time both in bigger cities as well as in a village). Hell, even the Dutch at least have bikable cities. So… it’s not terrible, but it also doesn’t really excel…

Passengers brought this upon themselves as well to be fair. Everybody loved it when they offered cheap rides. Omg upsetting an old encrusted business, just like streaming! Just worse because here, workers were also exploited, and it was obvious that at one point, people would get squeezed.

Btw here in Germany, it never really took off because of the strong laws regarding transportation that were not changed for Uber IIRC. I remember people complaining.

Yeah this is the thing. Trump isn’t where things went south, but he sure accelerated it. In a working democracy, he would have been laughed out of the room. But decades of neocon politics have deteriorated the American society so much in so many aspects that he got elected

“luckily, I have 50, so this doesn’t apply to me.”
