Okay, sure, but how often does it spam ads?
Does it keep asking me to register for something that either shouldn’t need registering or exist at all? Does it tell me to subscribe for a service every time I open up the terminal?
We all need one or two ads, as a treat.
I like Matthew 7
Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you. Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? You hypocrite! First take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye…
Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus you will recognize them by their fruits.
Or Matthew 22:34-40
But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together. And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question to test him. “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.”
I’m pretty certain that you can turn Relay off in your account settings.
Its range is also only 180 miles. The smaller battery definitely helps keep the cost down.
This car might not be for me but I definitely see its value and hope they’re successful.
I see three possible reasons:
He’s dead
El Salvador and the US don’t want anyone to speak about what’s going on in the prison
Trump wants to use this as a test. If he can get away with this, he can get away with sending most anyone.
Yes.
But they didn’t say they can’t get him back. They said they won’t get him back. The Trump administration argues that the courts cannot order them to bring him back to the US as he is not on US land.
My personal guess is that he’s already dead. They put him in a prison with the same people who wanted to murder him.
They could still use whatever config format they wanted - this would just be for providing their config schema. It also doesn’t need to be YAML, that’s just the easiest one for me to type on my phone. In fact, I think most schema validation programs rely on JSON as it is.
I also don’t think programs should be required to provide it. Many core programs and kernel modules would likely take years if they ever were able to add it just to avoid the risk of mistakes causing any major issues, especially if they haven’t needed an update in years. There are also many config files that use their own nonstandardized schema. A possibility is that they could be allowed to provide a CLI tool which could update the config or they could just ignore it entirely.
But creating a common schema for… well, the config schema would make it easier for systems to provide a frontend interface for updating your configs.
Seriously - Linux needs a standardized config schema spec. Something that programs should provide which an application can read and provide a frontend interface for the users to adjust config files.
Could be something like:
schema_version: 1.0
application:
name: Poo Analyzer
icon_path: /etc/pooanalyzer/images/icon.png
description: Analyzes photos of poo
schema:
- config_file:
path: /etc/pooanalyzer/conf/poo.conf
conf_type: ini
configs:
- field: poo_directory
type: dir_path
name: Poo Image Directory
description: Directory of Poo Images
icon_path: /etc/pooanalyzer/images/poo.png
- field: poo_type
type: list
name: Poo Types
description: Types of Poo to Analyze
values:
- dog
- cat
- human
- brown bear
icon_path: /etc/pooanalyzer/images/animal.png
...
Any distro could then create any frontend they’d like to manage this - the user could even install their own.
Yeah something like that should be doable but it would require that programs provide a schema and the OS to have a way for the programs to “announce” themselves so it can be aware of the configuration files and the schema.
I’m sure some project could create a GUI that could cover the most common applications, though.
It’s always fun trying to set up a program, learning the config syntax, running it, having it fail, and then spending an hour debugging before you realize it never even read your config changes because you were supposed to use one of the other half dozen conf files it has spread all across your drive. Is it under /etc/, /usr/local/etc/, /opt/, or your home directory?
And, in the meantime, you’ll only destroy your OS maybe a few dozen times!
There are existing standards. The issue is that there are too many different standards and some programs will choose to make their conf files half standardized, half unique.
There’s INI, YAML, JSON, XML, TOML, etc.
Honestly, the Linux team needs to just choose one of these formats, declare it the gold standard, and slowly migrate the config files for most core components over to it. By declaring a standard, you’ll eventually get the developers of most major third-party tools and components to eventually migrate.
Apparently it’s Athena Linux. At least, that’s what the hackable vacuums use.
Fwiw, the President can’t just “declare” that a group is a domestic terrorist organization. That’s a violation of the Fifth Amendment.
We’ve been able to get away with declaring foreign groups as terrorist organizations because they’re not based in America so the government can claim the Constitution doesn’t apply to them.
Of course, we all also know this won’t stop Trump…
