The broader context makes it clear that he's using the terms "Jew" and "Israeli" synonymously. I think choosing the word "Jew" alone for the headline version of the opinion is unnecessarily provocative, but not outright wrong.
Yes this. I tried this a few times but always ended in me banging against some esoteric issue. For example I tried to nixify a project I had which needs ruby and node. If you think you can spin up any version of ruby you are mistaken. The project removes older versions from time to time. The wrapper to fetch the correct gems from nix to setup the nix-env had really hard problems when gems or npm packages started their own native builds.

I’m a huge fan of the project and will give it a try again at one point. But I decided for now to go fully manual with arch to get a better understanding of most components involved in Linux before using the automatic that is nix.
Is it coincidence that comments are turned off on _all_ videos on YouTube[1] related to the redesigns?

What options do I as a "normie" have to give feedback? Is there really only one way, to use the ancient Bugzilla and hopefully finding a ticket somewhere?

I think that's the clue.

This could simply be mischief with an off-the shelf, gasoline, quad copter with upgraded long range radios. Flashing green strobe would be an FAA navigation light -- if viewed from the other side you would see a flashing red.

All of the natsec and domestic spying theories would be nullified by the thing having nav lights.

I didn’t “conflate” anything with anything. I said regions - the eu and us are similarly sized (geographic and population) regions with a single currency, free trade and freedom of movement. The fact that we call one a “country” is irrelevant.

I also used the example of India.
Also everyone is rational--but isn't it a happy surprise "nation-states" didn't come up again?

That's fascinating. I've never read about a childhood trauma-MS link before. I experienced the former and still have the latter.

Have you read about this anywhere? It sounds like you've thought about it, anyway. What else do you think?
I think one could do a lot more justice to the nuances of the situation than your summary.

1. Saying “whites” like it’s the 20th century is unnecessarily evocative of pre-civil-rights-era vibes.

2. To call it a “global conspiracy” implies there are far more people in on it than actually are.

3. When you choose a word like “perpetuating”, it doesn’t make sense to call out white people alone: the antiracist movement makes it clear that people of all shades “perpetuate” our society’s systemic injustices.

4. Finally, “against people of color” is not even the full scope of the issue: homogeneity breeds weakness, and another pillar of antiracism is a recognition of the strength in diversity.

5. The “sound familiar?” bit at the end is inviting a comparison that would be in incredibly poor taste IMO and smacks of DARVO tactics

Antiracism is a self-serving strategy if one identifies with humanity as a whole. It’s not a wild idea that’s “gaining steam” - people have been writing and speaking these truths for many years.
I'm an happy user of openSUSE tumbleweed. It's a very solid distro and if zypper is too slow for you, you can switch to dnf and it's work fine.
No, the argument is that the incentives aren't really there for other possible groups to commit this crime since they have legal alternatives to what was done. Doesn't make it impossible, just less likely.
Why are people so in love with the QR payment systems vs what Apple Pay has done? I'm not saying to be excited about being beholden to Apple, but their payment system just seems so much more efficient than the whole QR system. What am I missing?
>I want real connectivity built into the device

Cellular networks don't seem fast/cheap enough to upload thirty 100MP images from anywhere you happen to be (or 4K video). 5G is not going to be there all the time when you are out in the woods. Pro photographers often carry a hard drive that you can plug an SD card into to backup your photos immediately in the field. When they get home they plug the drive into a computer and run ingest software (there are a variety of these available) and automatically all their photos are then in a known place ready to be reviewed, edited, etc. It's not wireless, and it takes a little discipline and takes some time to research and set up, but once you have a system it would seem to be fairly painless (haven't tried it yet myself) and would make your photos and video available quickly without having to think about it much.

Honestly, I would rather have the Chinese government track me around rather than the US. Only one of those has the power to ask other countries to fuck me over on their behalf.
The thing is, this sort of activity is already covered under criminal law like you said. The rules from the university form a redundant legal system, and as a result are open to abuses given the lower standards of harm and evidence used.

So, to answer your question, the regulation could sanction people convicted of violent offences when the violent offenses pertain the the university and/or it's members. Therefore:

"The university reserves the right to sanction members of its community who have been convicted of acts of violence, or convicted of making credible threats of violence, against it's members."
I think being honest about what is/isn't a hobby is necessary too, especially for ones that require a lot of equipment.

E.g. watches. There's a lot of places on the Internet to discuss watches, and people that think being "into watches" is a thing. But all you're actually doing 95% of the time is buying watches and discussing what watches one buys. People can get very neurotic over this and develop weird tribal sentiments around it. I've seen this derisively (but also appropriately) coined as "bugmen" behavior. Same idea with craft beer. It's just consumerism in disguise.

Notice I don't mention watchmaking/homebrewing; those are legitimate hobbies.
Great system but I got tired of RPM and switched to an Ubuntu based system
Most pro/under-sink water filters can be recycled. I use a body glove system, and you send back the cartridge for recycling after you've replaced it. I didn't install mine (came with my place), but I think it's around $1000 to get a full system with filter, instant hot water, tap, etc. Drop the instant hot water, and and you're probably down to $500 or less.

If you're concerned about waste, a filter is far preferable to bottles of water or consumer-grade water pitchers, even if there's plastic involved.
Sure, there is an optimal meta-solution if you're able to define which set of trade-offs represent a "winning" solution.

But that's different from other problems where you can simply try to optimize the result itself directly. For example, we probably don't need to have hard discussions of trade-offs when it comes to, I don't know, infant mortality. There's almost no upside to babies dying (assuming you aren't heartless enough to consider less overpopulation to be an "upside").

But with business size, there are many desirable factors and improving any of them reduces another directly opposed but also desireable factor.

Competition is good. Cooperation is also good. Increasing one by definition lowers the other.
What you can relatively easily do is extend the 'installer' config with whatever you want to add there, for instance applications and a desktop environment.

It should be relatively straightforward to also mount /home from a separate USB stick partition, but I haven't tried.

I agree, he should have been more precise on who he blames. he generalized a bit with saying the jews. However, the essence of his writing is somewhat true. He talks about different jews that suffered and asked us to see the compassion in them and what they went through, surely we should be more humanists, I agree with most he said. apart from the generalising part
It's economically valid reasoning but most startups (even one man band) are happy to pay a premium for the cloud.
> I don't see any reason why your software should refuse to run under LTSC, unless it's too reliant on parts of the OS that shouldn't be depended on anyway. I've had games etc run just fine on it.

Which seems to be the standard for a lot of proprietary software. The objectives are to: get the software shipped ASAP, lock in the users.

This often means cutting corner. For instance, if there's a Windows public API to see who's logged in and their permissions that works across OSes they might use that, but you can also check the username directly. Or, what I've seen, they'll check the home directory path and assume that's the user that's logged in. Oops, the home directory moved between OS versions so our "test who's logged in" method only works on Windows ??? and not the more recent versions or even older versions. But that's fine, our customers are paying us $10k/seat and have no alternatives. Some users may find a workaround, but most won't.
Win10 Enterprise updates just fine for me against the public update servers.
I once bought a bottle of expensive fountain pen ink for my sister as a present; the thing that struck me most about it was that they included a hand-written thank you note in the packaging. It was a family business, and I remember it, years later, because it was such a pleasant surprise, and an unexpected one from all of the other commercial encounters I have. It taught me the value of the personal touch and attention to detail for customers.
Since you’re experiencing trauma as a result of learning that new information, I’d like to provide some food for thought on the off chance that it might help you. I do this with the best of intentions; it’s how I would try to look at the situation if it happened to me.

I believe that the way we as a society currently respond to things like abuse often results in way more trauma and victimhood than what victims would experience without that reaction. Needless to say, abuse is unacceptable and deserves punishment. However, I think we would end up with less suffering in the world if we’d become more reserved in deciding what qualifies as abuse, especially when it comes to (otherwise consensual) sex. Morality is subject to fashion after all.

I’m of the opinion that an act is not abusive if it’s not experienced as such, on the condition that the people involved in the act are aware of the possible consequences of it.

In your case, both at the time and up until recently, you didn’t experience the events as abusive but as actually positive. Like you said, the teacher was kind and comforting. What you learnt about him later doesn’t change that fact, and it doesn’t have to reduce him to an abuser.

To put things in perspective: in Ancient Greece, pederast relationships were completely accepted; strongly encouraged even! There’s no evidence that these relationships, a cultural tradition in a highly developed civilization, were experienced as abusive. They were also about love, education, and doing activities together, so it seems like your teacher would fit the definition of an erastês. It’s very possible that he wasn’t evil, just a man looking for love and intimacy in the wrong era/culture.

What I assume has given you trauma is the mere potentiality of sexual abuse, at a time you were suffering actual physical abuse. From what I can gather it didn’t end up actually happening, so there’s no telling whether he wanted more from you, and if he did, whether he would have acted in a way that felt abusive to you at the time (coercion/threatening).

Maybe I’m too open-minded by today’s Western moral standards, but when it comes to youth-adult relationships, I don’t think we should equate sex to abuse. It’s suffering we want to prevent, and suffering is the result of abuse. If you look at it like that, what you experienced and now view as grooming could actually be seen as a way of avoiding abuse.

You might disagree with my definition of abuse and argue that it would’ve been abusive in any case, but again, given the information you provided this is how I would personally look at it in this situation. I hope these different perspectives can help at all.
How do the various pour-over methods compare to espresso machine type coffee?

I've got a strong preference for coffee brewed using an espresso machine (ie high pressure extraction pushed through a tiny hole), but I'm not really sure what the cause is - is it different levels of extracted compounds? Is there any pour-over methods (ie not pressurised) that are similar?
I've been smitten by NixOS ever since I first tried it 2 years ago. Its the first carefree experience I've had with my system. As a side note, this result includes first tiny contributions of mine!

That said, I really hope the community gets their stuff together on Flakes. They're designated as experimental and official document doesn't recommend them, but all the cool kids are already using them everywhere and it is fracturing the efforts and alienating newcomers.
Yes, that is really my take.

Seems like a classic case of "show me the incentives I'll show you the outcome".

You want managers to have more turnover than seems to naturally happen, they'll respond by hiring under-qualified people they can fire and over-qualified people who will move on. It's really a no-brainier solution that any manager who's team isn't meeting the criteria to check the box can implement in order to check the box.
It would still be sharded by top-level domain, though, which would be enough to prevent cross-site tracking. This is specifically for the case where a page looks like: [common top level origin] -> [iframed different origin].
It certainly happened on the desktop, but several Twitter devs said they were going to stop doing it publicly so it seems like it has. Or at least that it eventually sticks.

I am a Suse convert and I advocate loudly for it mostly because you don’t hear much about it, so passion compensates for mindshare. Yast, Zypper, microos (a transactional update rolling spin) are all fantastic products and I’m a huge fan of Tumbleweed gaming systems because you get all of the newest updates for Mesa, Vulcan, etc....and because of the openQA system things are generally better tested than they are in Arch.

Tumbleweed got Gnome 40 stable before Fedora 34 was released and it’s been rock solid for me since day 1. And updates are generally extremely safe because if an update breaks your system you can just rollback to a previous Btrfs snapshot with one command and a reboot, wait a bit and issues are fixed very quickly.
Superficial things like “language”? I honestly can’t tell if you’re trolling.

Fascinating.
Because the output is still CSS, this would lead to a lengthened (redundant) selector though. Also, AFAIK it would be impossible with a class that is not part of your SCSS tree. If you are able to import the library CSS in to your own SCSS, OK, no problem. But that would introduce unneeded complexity.
If using a bundler and one output file, copying the library CSS rules and applying them to your own could maybe even lead to the same output as @extend - a combined selector

.warn, warning

Realistically, those are probably still useful in situations like this, because the authorities can more easily filter out compliant air traffic when they're trying to monitor/investigate something like this. Without it, they'd need to find the needle in a much bigger haystack.

I think the part that's throwing people off (including me) is if I'm looking at that main example, how do I get type completion on this line:

Hello {query.me.name}!

query dot me dot name should all have type completion. And in most TS "frameworks" you have some way to type hint this all out. us TS folk are not seeing the type hints in the example. Maybe it works in VSCode like that, but totally confused how it does.

Believe me, I'm super interested in this project and it would save a ton of time if it's doing what some of us are hoping :)
You will accelerate other people's ends as well, statistically, if you continue to get drunk. Drunkenness is related to so many car crashes, brawls, and other crimes. It's prevalence in society affects everyone else and you are selfishly doing it to the detriment of others.

Real people do not work like "I only drink 8 beers in one sitting once a week every week". In reality, the fact that you binge drink at all, makes you more likely to binge drink when special occasions arise, and this is exactly the reason there's a huge uptick in drunk driving accidents and deaths every holiday on the calendar in countries with large drinking populations. Those people involved in those incidents probably also don't drink to excess every day but rather they drink to excess on occasion and on this occasion they went too far.

Drinking and driving isn't the only dangerous behavior that alcohol consumption makes more likely, it impairs your decision-making skills, it is heavily linked to domestic and public violence, etc.

Drunk driving happens not because people are idiots but because situations press on them until they have very few options and driving while a little intoxicated (what an intoxicated perceives as "a little" is a lot more than a normal person does) is one of the only options left. If you get put in that kind of situation, we all have to suffer for it, not you. Drunk drivers usually kill others and rarely die in crashes.

I frequently see Kindle pricing as higher than print. If ebook prices were 2$ less, I'd be more inclined to buy some. If they were 50% less, I'd buy 10x more. If the author got a higher cut, I'd also be more inclined to give these middlemen my money. As it is, I buy used print books most of the time...

Yes, some of the scientific knowledge is outdated; we know a lot more about whales than we did in the 1850’s. But IMO that makes it an even more fascinating read, because we get to learn how people saw and understood the world back then, and compare-and-contrast it with how we understand things now. And Melville interjects a lot of his own opinions and witty arguments, making clear not only what he believes about whales but also why.

So yes, we no longer define “whale” as “a spouting fish with a horizontal tail”, and if you’re studying the taxonomy of whales maybe don’t use Moby-Dick as a textbook. But if you want to learn about 19th-century whaling, it contains a lot of highly accurate, firsthand experience. And it’s a lot of fun to compare Melville’s lists and descriptions of whale species with those on Wikipedia to see just how much our understanding has changed.
Agreed. Up until last year, I owned both (pre- and post-redesign models). They drove differently. The 2004 was clearly station-wagon-like, and the 2010 was not.

I liked driving the 2004 version more. It just felt faster, likely because it was lower to the ground. But the 2010 looks much more attractive, and the extra vertical space makes it much easier to transport large things. For example, we once fit a full-size washing machine and a full-size dryer in the back of the 2010 after we came across them at a yard sale on a day trip. They would never have fit in the 2004.

All of that said, the 2004 was unlike a station wagon in that there was no third-row seating option. It maxed out at 5 people.
It is a distributed os. What makes it different is that the program is running in part on the other device.

This article was about fashion, so it seems relevant. Other discussions about companies harmful practices often do sound off in the threads about those companies or fields.

I dont think anyone said one was worse than the other until you did - we can actually be against more than one thing at a time and maintain various levels of concerns across more than one thing at a time without constantly bringing up a list of all the bad things in the universe.

Alternative to what others have said, you can use your config to build a custom bootable ISO and use it to setup your new system. Comes very handy if you can't guarantee nice network for setup.
It sounds like nix provides an escape hatch [1] out of the declarative framework into something imperative, e.g. running `apt install $package`. And that seems like it would really ease adoption, since I would assume that it would allow a gradual adoption of the declarative mindset.
