Counterpoint.

I’ve avoided ads for 30 years now, I’m not stopping now. I would happily send shows I watch a couple bucks an episode and still pirate them so I can avoid ads of products I will never buy. But they don’t give you a way to do that.

So… RSS?

IT’S NOT ABOUT THE FUCKING TARIFFS!!!

For fuck’s sake, Canada is boycotting US goods because of that 51st state bullshit. Threatening our sovereignty makes banning American liquor decidedly NOT a “disproportionate response”. Where do these fucking reporters come up with this shit?

This Xitter thread seems like utter bullshit.

I have a hard time feeling sorry for a cybertruck owner

I’ve been using the same windows/dockur setup for a couple years that they outline in the Winapp docs. It uses KVM via a docker cap you give it permission for in the docker compose.

It should work with this Winapp thing, but I haven’t gotten much success so far trying to connect it. I’ve just been RDPing into them but I’d have liked to just pull the relevant windows alone, more like Terminal Service Applications.

Yah, I dinked with this for far too long on several docker-based windows installs I have around the network including localhost on a non-standard port. Fails to set up and gives no messages to follow up when it does. I can connect to them fine with a normal xfreerdp command.

I tried Kinoite a while back and the included Box Buddy couldn’t clone containers. I took it all the way back to the docker command that was cloning and it would just fail out. Same version of Box Buddy/Distrobox/docker on regular Fedora worked fine. Pinged the developer of Box Buddy and he figured it was something about how Kinoite worked that was messing with it and I should ask the Kinoite maintainers. At that point my curiosity was exhausted and I’d run into the software install annoyances with rpm-ostree based distros, and just went back to Fedora.

And then they’ll have to deal with a demographic problem as the ones that know how good code looks and how to fix it retire.

Moving cows is very much like what they describe here. You can roar around on a quad and work them up, and make it very difficult, or you can calmly target lead animals and move them with slight movements. As little as shifting your weight from one foot to the other or raising an arm at the right time will change their directions, even split them from the herd. And they will watch your eyes to see if you’re targetting them. Generations of handling have given them the same sort of attention to body cues that dogs have.

Age can also change how you handle an animal 180*. Calves will always try to pass you, so you don’t push them the direction you want them to go, you walk away from that direction and they will run past you towards it. If you’re far enough back, you might be able to get them pressured up enough to try to get away in that direction, but there will always be one that tries to circle behind you, out of sight. He will run back to the rest of them as soon as you pressure him though.

They’ll also know when you’re not maneuverable and change their escape tactics. On foot, they use speed or intimidation, on quad, they use sharp turns. On horseback, they try all three a couple times and get beaten out by the horse every way, then just do exactly what you want because they don’t have anything else.

Carmen Ortiz murdered Aaron Swartz over much, much less infringement than this.

If you say so. MX is a Debian base, so it’s more a testament to Debian’s reliability.

There was a pretty good indication that Manjaro was click-botting it a few years back, then Mint, and now MX. While I actually like Manjaro, that team is totally not above having done such a thing. And pretty much as soon as the rumors about that started, it mysteriously started dropping in the ranking…

Why? For a long time, DW was considered a source of distro recommendation and popularity. With these “attacks”, it’s become a community joke and not considered much of a real indication.

Distrowatch has been gamed for years.

I rarely see any references to MX in Linux forums, I don’t think it’s anywhere near as popular as DW would indicate.
