Since the right wing stuff still gets pushed to the front page
I find this hard to believe since it goes against my decades long personal experience using YouTube. The moment I click on a “Ben Shapiro destroys” video, sure - I get plenty more in my feed. But they also go away when I stop engaging. In my experience, YouTube does a great job of recommending me the kind of content I actually like to watch.
A few months ago, a new terminal emulator was released. It's called ghostty, and it has been a highly anticipated terminal emulator for a while, especially due to the coverage that it received from ThePrimeagen, who had been using for a while, while it was in private beta.
I give it a spin every month or so to see how it’s getting on. I’m on macOS.
Every time I walk away unimpressed, despite its maker’s very deserved esteemed reputation.
I’m probably not seeing something. What I do see, however, is that I can’t search my scrollback history, nor can I select text without a mouse.
Also, pressing cmd+, on macOS opens the config inside TextEditor (yes, a separate GUI app) rather than in $EDITOR. It’s a small thing but I couldn’t figure out how to change it. Coming from Kitty, this drove me mad.
I’m not sure who Ghostty is for. My feeling is it’s aiming to be an excellent, polished experience for casual terminal users. But I didn’t see anything that Kitty or just tmux anywhere can’t do.
Pretty sure they blocked me after I commented, so no screenshot.
The US essentially has no restrictions on what parents can do to their children, or pay to have done to them. These companies will show up at night, and take a child out of their bed at night. They explicitly tell parents not to warn the kid what will happen.
Imagine being woken up in the middle of the night, maybe forced to quickly pack, and then be loaded in a van. You have no idea where you are going or why or who or what is going on. You get taken to a facility which is basically a cult. You might be dumped out in rural Utah, with people that have zero training in wilderness safety, who might punish you by denying you food and water.
Children die in these places all the fucking time. There generally is no state or federal oversight of these facilities - so there aren’t really investigations. These places are havens for child predators.
When I was sexually abused at a similar facility and tried to report it - I was placed on heavy doses of antipsychotics in retaliation. They drugged me unconscious, and then punished me for sleeping during “class.” As an adult, I have involuntary shakes and movements associated with the medical malpractice enacted on me.
These places don’t get investigated, they don’t get shut down. I think Utah is one of the only states with any form of agency that watches over these places. Child protective services won’t go in, health care agencies won’t go in.
Children have no rights in the US. They are the property of their parents, to be disposed of as they wish. And fuckers like this agency are delighted to kidnap children that their parents can’t be assed to parent.
The "troubled teen industry" in Utah— congregant care centers where kids can be sent for months or years for treatment—may be in line for more state oversightBrian Mullahy, KUTV (KUTV)

Apologies for contributing to that feeling, definitely wasn’t my intention to upset you!
For those who haven’t read it and are unfamiliar with the horrific teen abuse industry this comic depicts, it’s quite a fucking journey.
wtf
is this real? I didn't read past whenvhe was given anti lice to shower, but can you tell me : are yhe parents responsible for this ?
The parents often truly do not understand how bad these camps are and are often deceived by the institutions themselves. Part of the strategy is to make the treatment so outlandish and to use such strange terminology that the kids can’t properly communicate the abuse without sounding insane. Then they keep telling the parents “no matter what don’t listen to them. They will lie to get out of this. They need to finish it, to see it through, or they will end up in juvie on worse.”
It’s horrific
When your kid has behavioral issues that start spiraling out of control, it can put a ton of strain on you and your family, especially if there isn’t a mental health diagnosis (often ignored and even then not a given!). It canbecome all consuming. You can’t send them to hang out with friends, you can’t send them to school, you can’t do anything without them likely lashing out or otherwise causing issues that disrupt everyone's life constantly. That does not mean the kid is doing something wrong, the reality is just that it can be incredibly difficult to deal with day in and day out for.
At some point you’ll look for anyone that says “I can fix this. We can teach your kids what they need to learn.”
But don't the kids who finish take revenge on the institutes a couple of years later when they are adults and realize how fucked up it is?
I mean, at least sue them or something? It said it existed 40 years.
I made it to chapter 60 over the last 90 minutes.
I can’t even describe how angry I feel about that. Expletives don’t fit. I’m not big on death penalty, but I think these people deserve it - more than some who are sentenced to death.
I also am feeling incredibly grateful that my parents didn’t get caught up in the scam.
Thank you for sharing this. Probably one of the hardest reads of my life, it's incredibly powerful and well written so it conveys the horrors of the experience in an almost visceral way.
It also really helped me understand at a much more personal level how these addiction/reeducation camps and cults break people mentally and emotionally.
Sure, you read about these kinds of things happening in the news, but it never hit home for me what that experience is like until reading this.
Thank you.
Cambridge researchers urge public health bodies like the NHS to provide trustworthy, research-driven alternatives to platforms driven by profit.Women deserve better than to have their menstrual tracking data treated as consumer data - Prof Gina Neff
Smartphone apps that track menstrual cycles are a “gold mine” for consumer profiling, collecting information on everything from exercise, diet and medication to sexual preferences, hormone levels and contraception use.
This is according to a new report from the University of Cambridge’s Minderoo Centre for Technology and Democracy, which argues that the financial worth of this data is “vastly underestimated” by users who supply profit-driven companies with highly intimate details in a market lacking in regulation.
The report’s authors caution that cycle tracking app (CTA) data in the wrong hands could result in risks to job prospects, workplace monitoring, health insurance discrimination and cyberstalking – and limit access to abortion.
They call for better governance of the booming ‘femtech’ industry to protect users when their data is sold at scale, arguing that apps must provide clear consent options rather than all-or-nothing data collection, and urge public health bodies to launch alternatives to commercial CTAs.
In this report we map the existing and future harms of tracking menstrual cycles by Femtech companies and suggest ways to mitigate the risks to individuals and society.MCTD Cambridge (mctd.ac.uk)

Everyone talks about how evil browser fingerprinting is, and it is, but I don't get why people are only blaming the companies doing it and not putting equal blame on browsers for letting it happen.
Go to Am I Unique and look at the kind of data browsers let JavaScript access unconditionally with no user prompting. Here's a selection of ridiculous ones that pretty much no website needs:
If you're wondering how sensors are used to fingerprint you, I think it has to do with manufacturing imperfections that skew their readings in unique ways for each device, but websites could just as easily straight up record those sensors without you knowing. It's not a lot of data all things considered so you likely wouldn't notice.
Also, canvas and webGL rendering differences are each more than enough to 100% identify your browser instance. Not a bit of effort put into making their results more consistent I guess.
All of these are accessible to any website by default. Actually, there's not even a way to turn most of these off. WHY?! All of these are niche features that only a tiny fraction of websites need. Browser companies know that fingerprinting is a problem and have done nothing about it. Not even Firefox.
Why is the web, where you're by far the most likely to execute malicious code, not built on zero trust policies? Let me allow the functionality I need on a per site basis.
Fuck everything about modern websites.

Another user in this thread suggested DMZing, so combine your advice with theirs and boom. It’s not uncommon, and it’s fine if you firewall the box yourself. Most people don’t knowingly choose to use a firewall that they don’t intend to work, like you would.

There’s more than one way to use docker. Spinning up an official mysql image using the official docker run OR docker compose calls suggested by the docs would start up a server wide open to the entire internet if DMZ’d.
According to Wikipedia, the Pantsir shoots small missiles with radar or optical guidance. No idea why it missed.
I watch this one history yt channel that goes through the moment to moment details of various battles. One thing I learned from that is that things just go wrong all the time in wars. Missiles fail to launch, radars malfunction or aren't properly calibrated, a manufacturing defect turns a potent weapon into a dud, etc.
DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Newsweek that the City of Glendale's decision was "deeply disturbing," and accused state officials of siding with criminals over public safety after unrest in Los Angeles.
Just so people are aware, this is the same rhetoric/same regurgitated talking points being used against "progressive" policies in blue cities within red states all over the country.
They are banking on an escalation of physical violence and confrontation that they will use as an excuse to establish a permanent federal and military force in California that will not be subject to any California state laws.
Why do I believe that? Because its how it happened in my own city to establish a permanent state police force that can't be regulated by any city or local ordinance.
They instigate and then argue that progressive policies have resulted in an emergency and chaos, that leaves them no choice but to step in and fix things by taking control.

it’s just an example of state overreach in a violent manner. one of many. none are appropriate when one truly considers things like “rights” etc.
the civil war was probably the last time the state was able to “legit” use violence because it was to quell an actual secession by a formal militia of more than a million traitors and terrorists.
Asserting that the state has no legitimate interest in using limited violence (i.e. tear gas) to execute lawful search and arrest warrants against heavily-armed, recalcitrant pedophiles is truly one of the takes of all time.
The Bundy standoff, the SLA, and the Waco Siege are categorically different from the firebombing of Philly or the Tulsa Massacre to anyone with a brain.

I'm pretty happy with Downie (and Permute to directly convert media to whatever format I like). So far it downloads everything I throw at it. And you can create custom download handlers (using JavaScript) to make it work (without interaction) with sites that are currently not supported and would spawn the user-interactive downloader.
If you just want to download and don't care about a nice GUI, yt-dlp probably has similar features.

ArchivedOn June 4, during a meeting with government officials, Vladimir Putin stated that all public services must be moved to the national messenger app called Max. According to Minister of Digital Development Maksut Shadayev, the multiplatform system is already operational.
[...]
The Max app — a Russian equivalent of China’s WeChat — was unveiled by the tech giant VK in late March. At present, it features a messenger, a chatbot builder, a payment system, and mini-apps. On June 5, VTB’s digital bank launched on the platform.
To register, a Belarusian or Russian SIM card is required — which, as The Insider noted, foreigners can no longer obtain without submitting biometric data.
As stated in the Max app’s privacy policy, the platform will collect data on:
- user devices
- IP address
- operating system
- browser
- location
- internet provider
- contacts from the address book
- all user activity within the service
- information obtained through the camera or microphone, if the user grants the app access (most users will, for example, in order to record voice messages)
Other messaging apps collect such data as well, but there's a catch. The Max app's privacy policy explicitly states that it may share this data with the “company's partners” as well as with “any government or local authority.”

If you're seeing this, you are a part of the Fediverse.With me today is Booteille! Booteille was a volunteer to Framasoft for 3 years, then became a co-president, a volunteer position as well, and then got hired by Framasoft and stepped down from his volunteer position . Booteille seems to wear many different hats around Framasoft. From interviews, conventions, building donation campaigns, to sysadmin tasks, website tweaks, etc.
Booteille describes their goal with Framasoft is "to help as much as I can the organisation in our goals: raising awareness about digital issues and helping to build a society fitting our values."
I'm very excited to finally have this show as we've had to reschedule numerous times. Schedule conflicts, then I was sick for weeks, and booteille is finally getting over being sick as well.

This isn't the strength of gpt-o4 the model has been optimised for tool use as an agent. That's why its so good at image gen relative to their models it uses tools to construct an image piece by piece similar to a human. Also probably poor system prompting. A LLM is not a universal thinking machine its a a universal process machine. An LLM understands the process and uses tools to accomplish the process hence its strengths in writing code (especially as an agent).
Its similar to how a monkey is infinitely better at remembering a sequence of numbers than a human ever could but is totally incapable of even comprehending writing down numbers.

Corporate VPN startup Tailscale secures $230 million CAD Series C on back of “surprising” growthPennarun confirmed the company had been approached by potential acquirers, but told BetaKit that the company intends to grow as a private company and work towards an initial public offering (IPO).
“Tailscale intends to remain independent and we are on a likely IPO track, although any IPO is several years out,” Pennarun said. “Meanwhile, we have an extremely efficient business model, rapid revenue acceleration, and a long runway that allows us to become profitable when needed, which means we can weather all kinds of economic storms.”

I just find the constant grind against profitability and capitalism to be a bit worn. I guess you could say I am fully ensconced in capitalism as I run three tax paying, for profit businesses. The issues I take with capitalism is unbridled, uncontrolled greed...when we place profit over principal. By all means tho, make yo' paper son.

The agreement allowed detainees to be housed at the Glendale Police Department facility, which provided access to virtual and in-person visitation.City leaders acknowledged the change could make family visits more difficult, and warned that access to legal representation might be more limited at other facilities.

Hello, recent Reddit convert here and I'm loving it. You even inspired me to figure out how to fully dump Windows and install LineageOS.
One thing I can't understand is the level of acrimony toward LLMs. I see things like "stochastic parrot", "glorified autocomplete", etc. If you need an example, the comments section for the post on Apple saying LLMs don't reason is a doozy of angry people: infosec.pub/post/29574988
While I didn't expect a community of vibecoders, I am genuinely curious about why LLMs strike such an emotional response with this crowd. It's a tool that has gone from interesting (GPT3) to terrifying (Veo 3) in a few years and I am personally concerned about many of the safety/control issues in the future.
So I ask: what is the real reason this is such an emotional topic for you in particular? My personal guess is that the claims about replacing software engineers is the biggest issue, but help me understand.

Package manager is a thing that keeps organized all programs on your pc, normally you would have to go to site, download .deb or .tar.xz and etc. package manager takes cares of doing that and manager also integrates this package with system, so when theres update and something is added or deleted, package manager will take care of all.
Okay, so if its only downloading then why AUR has 97587 packages, and XBPS-SRC (void linux - aur alternative kinda) has much less? It's because AUR is community, anyone can maintain some package, XBPS-SRC also has community but by pulling requests to merge TEMPLATES, but that doesn't mean u can't add your own TEMPLATES.
Wait, wait, wait, what are TEMPLATES?
Its kind of script which makes Package manager do its thing. Templates in XBPS-src and "PKGBUILD?" in AUR are similar.
We have to tell in this script: what package, what version, give link to download and etc.
Example of TEMPLATE in XBPS-SRC for DISCORD:
# Template file for 'discord'
pkgname=discord
version=0.0.96

}I hope you don't use AUR blindly and just do yay -S something without looking what pkgbuild is doing, it might be dangerous not knowing what program can do and what script that is downloading it too right? XBPS-SRC learns you how to maintain packages.
Also theres way to share Templates with other by importing REPO of some templates, like librewolf-void repo and etc. So there's way to share packages.
So this is my way to conveince you to use void linux 😀. IN MY OPINION, void is what people think arch is. A diy distro with learning curve to understand how OS works. ARCH is great!, but void gives you more knowledge of what things systemd takes care.
To make thing little bit funnier theres easy and really nice (experimental and not official) script of installing void :
https://github.com/kkrruumm/void-install-scriptSOURCES:
https://xbps-src-tutorials.github.io/packaging/j4-dmenu-desktop.html
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages
XBPS-SRC does not look like an alternative to AUR at all. It looks like Voids alternative to gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux… - where Arch maintains all its packages. Nor is comparing the number of packages in AUR to Void main repos a good idea - Arch has its own main repos that are a better equivalent. The Void templates do not look dissimilar form what a PKGBUILD file is either and you can do the same things with writing your own PKGBUILD or pulling them from repos if you really want to. I don't see how void is any better then Arch in anything you have described here. IMO it just looks like it does more of the same things with a bit difference in syntax/commands you run. Nothing you have said here is really a solid argument for using Void or Arch at all.
The AUR is not even that great. I think most people seem to get confused between what is in the AUR and the main packages since they just use tools like yay that install from both. But most people only use a couple of packages from the AUR - it is the package selection in the main repos which is what is so nice about Arch. The AUR is just nice for more niche things that have not made it into the main repos yet.
I hope u don’t use AUR blindly and just do yay -S something without looking what pkgbuild is doing, it might be dangerous not knowing what program can do and what script that is downloading it too right?
Same goes for Void? Most people wont read the source of third party packages they install. No matter what distro they are on. AUR tooling does try to help with this but most people ignore it. Same will go for Void. It is not a distro problem - just a humans are lazy problem. Plus even if people did read them there is only a small subset of people that actually understand them enough to spot obviously malicious packages - though that can spot hidden malicious packages are vastly smaller.
Thank you for your comment, maybe people wont read 1:1 code, atleast they will learn how this kinda works, because now they just install things, but looking at templates they can actually understand its kinda simple script and get the idea of how it works. Also i wasn't comparing exactly xbps main void repos to AUR but overall xbps-src to aur, which can be similar because people can share templates, anyway we should still understand what package manager does and what download scripts are doing. Also void has runit so this mean u have to get more simple programs to run system like seatd dbus and etc. So overall i 2 arguments of void being better in understand of OS is actually knowing how to maintain packages and how system works from boot. Anyway i understand it is your opinion, all i can is tell u my opinion.
Edit: when i used systemd my system booted in 13sec, now on runit its 8sec, not really important thing but still

Ok I'll take this as my opportunity to rant about a pet peeve.
Wearing a harness in this style of elevating work platform is more dangerous than not wearing one, and having a requirement to do so is part of what's wrong with work health and safety.
The only way someone falls out of this, beyond mechanical failure or tipping, is if they lean so far over the railing they fall out of it.
If I need to wear a harness in this, you need to wear one whenever you walk next to a balcony.
I have two wireless mice. One is a really good mouse that served me for years until it got too beat up, and now the scroll wheel doesn't work very well. The other is a newer HP mouse (specifically HP 280 Silent Wireless Mouse, product number 19u64AA) that is a bloody piece of shit and I hate it.
The HP mouse currently has two main issues with it. 1, it doesn't "sleep" or turn itself off after a period of inactivity. It just stays on, even if the usb dongle is disconnected, until the battery just dies on it. 2, it's clicking software/firmware had a fucking stroke or some shit. It only clicks on the active screen; so for example, if I have Firefox open and fullscreen, it will not click on the task bar on the bottom of my screen at all. It won't even register that it's hovering over something down there, it just refuses. That, and the middle click won't work. It's genuinely annoying, because the mouse used to work with no issues. I have no idea what caused this, and my conspiracy theory is that HP just kills mice that are alive for too long, because this is fucking horse shit. I do not recommend this fucking mouse at all for this.
What's funny is, I tried both my previous mouse (the one with the broken scroll wheel), and my desktop's wired mouse, and both worked excellently. No issues at all, unable to replicate the issues experienced by my HP mouse. Crawling through the journalctl logs don't show anything wrong with any of the mice, at least not that my noob ass could tell, and the HP support page for the 280 doesn't have a fucking user manual for it. There just doesn't seem to be one at all, not one I can find at least.
Anyways, /rant. How can I see what's wrong with the 280, or fix what might be wrong with it (or factory reset the mouse, if that's a thing)? Alternatively, how can I fix my other mouse's scroll wheel (Victsing Wireless Mouse model PC106A my beloved)?
Edit: Forgot to mention, on Linux mint 22.1 cinnamon, on an HP laptop oddly enough (you would think HP accessories would work with HP products). if you need any information, journalctl, inxi, my fucking social security number, whatever, lmk.

I just got home and tried a thing on your behalf, using a perfectly good wired mouse of mine.
I simulated my suspicion that the mouse wheel click button might be shorted out, by holding the wheel button down while trying to left click on the taskbar.
Sure enough, in that condition, it doesn't recognize the left click on the taskbar.
I am pretty sure your wheel click button is shorted out and the system thinks you're constantly holding it down.

Microsoft and Asus are launching two new Xbox Ally handhelds later this year. Both devices will include a new fullscreen Xbox experience on Windows.Tom Warren (The Verge)
I mean conservative estimates have over 20 million people using game pass and the steam deck is getting long in the tooth technology wise - valve has also made it very clear there are no plans to release a new one any time soon, if ever.
Also, Ilove my steam deck so much, but it is not the most user-friendly for newbies sometimes. You have to be comfortable troubleshooting occasionally, especially if you ever plan on using desktop mode. Which is not required of course, but you are leaving a lot of the appeal of the device in the first place on the table if you don’t use that ever.
I fucking hate Microsoft, I am over the Xbox ecosystem, but ultimately this will be a very pick up and play device. It will likely sell at least half decently (likely underperform their estimates as always). I think anybody saying it’s doomed to fail however is honestly not up to date on the current state of gaming.
If I had to ignorantly shoot from the hip, I would say they will probably sell ~500,000-1mill units
Well, at least the base model Xbox Ally has essentially the same SoC as the Steam Deck. The Z2 A has 4 Zen 2 cores and 8 RDNA 2 CUs. It will be configurable up to 20 watts TDP instead of 15 on the Deck, but that's it. So much for "long in the tooth technology wise".
Sure, the Z2 Extreme variant will be more powerful, but it'll also be in a different price category (800-900,-€).
And in terms of user-friendliness: the Xbox Ally will run Windows. It won't launch into the regular desktop shell (by default), and it won't have as many services running in the background which might help with performance and battery life, and you'll probably be able to update drivers and Windows through it. Maybe it will have some preconfigured scripts/shortcuts to install Steam, Battle.net etc. But that's it. Expect to fall back to the desktop mode (or open a browser, terminal and Explorer window in the new gaming mode) for anything more advanced like installing emulators.
In terms of pick up and play this won't be much different to the Steam Deck, with the one exception being Game Pass - but even then don't expect any of the more demanding titles to run well.
the steam deck is getting long in the tooth technology wise
lolwut? The Deck was released only three years ago.
And how long do you think a $300-$400 handheld PC is supposed to stay on the cutting edge?
You can already see its ability to play AAA games slipping. It’s an incredibly impressive machine but the days of BG3/cyberpunk/etc. dropping on it and being solid experiences are wrapping up. I’m sure it has several years of viability in store but come on.

The steamdeck has matured and because of its architecture there is no meaningful upgrade or change you can do to it yourself besides storage.
Valve has made it very clear they have no plans to release another one, the OLED was their final refresh of the design. Their focus in that arena is on bringing steamOS to different platforms, perhaps another round of Steam machines, but they have explicitly said they are not taking another crack at mobile hardware right now.
I get you are excited about the steamdeck, I love mine as well. But they have been abundantly clear on this matter. No speculation required
Even if you're correct, it's still too early, anyway. That's my point.
The DS had a seven-year lifespan and the original Switch had eight. Even living room console have an average near decade long lifespan. So, of course Valve isn’t going to throw their money into a second generation.
The DS had countless iterations and refreshes. The Switch was Nintendo's flagship product. I also never said the steamdeck was useless or done. You know I didn't, yet you pretend like I'm treating it as if its practically e-waste. I was very specific/nuanced in how I talked about it. I don't know why this is such an important hill for you to die on but I think I'm being more than fair to the deck.
If I didn't think I could find good use for the steam deck for at least 5+ years then I wouldn't have bought one. But like the Xbox Series S it is starting to show some age on more demanding titles. It is just reality, and for many people that's not really a big deal. But for some it is.
But like the Xbox Series S it is starting to show some age on more demanding titles.
Sounds like this is more of the fault of the AAA publishers than the console makers.
Dude come on why are you making me be so prescriptive? Stop looking for holes and try to infer meaning/understand what I am actually saying. This isn't a formal debate, you don't need to score points. We are trying to reach mutual understanding.
Yes it matters in the grand sense of things. I care about the state of the industry and gaming.
It does not matter re: the subject I am talking about, i.e. whether or not the steamdeck is getting older/its AAA capabilities. I am talking about realties, you are trying to make this a discussion about values and developers. This is an assessment of the steamdeck as hardware.
My friend is working on adding ActivityPub support to his blog platform (BDServer) so people can follow/comment from Mastodon, Lemmy, etc.
Current status: Lemmy and Misskey can find and follow his account (@blenderdumbass@blenderdumbass.org), but Mastodon can't find it at all, even though he sees proper ActivityPub requests hitting his server.

Linux Mint 22.2 adds fingerprint login and authentication support through a new desktop app called Fingwit, which boasts 'smarter' PAM integration.Joey Sneddon (OMG! Ubuntu!)
This only really works for people who have hardware whose fingerprint readers are supported by upstream fprintd; would be interesting if they (or another distro; haven't seen anybody implement this yet) add a "just works" option for installing and setting up e.g. libfprint-tod-vfs0090 or python-validity (which I use on two of my machines actually), similar to how some distros (Mint included I believe, but haven't dealt with it in a while) give you an option for installing Nvidia proprietary drivers (or just make it work out of the box).
However these drivers are extremely sketch at times so... I guess there's some good out of it not being preconfigured for people (because you have to look into it yourself and realize just how terrifying they are, both security and stability wise, python-validity especially)...
(though now I'm on NixOS where I have it pretty much "just work" through not that much effort, at least not as much as on Arch, and definitely not as much as on Mint which was painful because PPA fuckery)
libfprint TOD driver for Validity Sensors 0090. Contribute to 3v1n0/libfprint-tod-vfs0090 development by creating an account on GitHub.GitHub
Fingerprint sensors have been an interesting hurdle for Linux distros. Not one I necessarily would have anticipated either. The biggest question seems to come down to their security as well, given that there have been exposed flaws in the design of biometric hardware that tries to generalize its compatibility.
Microsoft has defined SDCP as a strong standard for TPM/Windows, but there isn't an equivalent for Linux. Match on chip sensors have made things a bit easier, but there isn't a standard way to communicate the validated authentication to the OS, usually relying on TLS.

I've been on the fence since I've been trying Hyprland. What I want out of a window manager / DE is lots of window customization settings (borders, animations, etc.), & having configuration inside one file or one directory with hot-reloading (I'm switching from KDE since its config files all over the place). Hyprland is very popular among WM users with a large ecosystem, though I prefer stacking rather than tiling. I can make it work with some window rules, and shell scripts using hyprctl & jq.
I'm wondering how many little things I will need to fix / figure out. For instance, when I open the firefox bookmarks library with CTRL SHIFT O. When that window is open but not focused, and not on top, if I press CTRL SHIFT O again on a DE it comes back to the top, but not on Hyprland. I could probably find a fix for that?
I might be answering my own question but I really want to hear thoughts.
hyprctl is a utility for controlling some parts of the compositor from a CLI or a script. It should automatically be installed along with Hyprland.wiki.hyprland.org
1st turnoff for me was the creator added this anime background which overwrote whatever background you had. I found the file and wrote a hook to automatically delete it on update reverting to mt background, only to find that there was a condig option to do the same thing
2nd The maintainer is a bigot and I won't support bigotted projects when there are other (better) options like sway which I know use.
TLDR: Creator violates Wheatons Law. I don't like that.
There's an option in the config to replace the default anime background by a more sober one with the hyprland logo (wish I had know that BEFORE doing a presentation on a large second screen for the first time and realizing that hyprpaper kept my custom background on my workspaces but defaulted to the anime wallpaper on the second screen because in hyprpaper backgrounds are configured per screen 😂 ). And no matter whether you use that option or not, it shouldn't overwrite the background you choose. It's displayed only if you don't have any background configured. Otherwise it's either a bug or misconfiguration in hyprpaper.
Definitely not going to defend the dev on the other stuff.

252 of that 592 used memory is buffers/cache, not application memory. That is used by the kernel for kernel buffers and the filesystem cache - IE files read by something at some point. The kernel keeps them in memory in case they are needed again to speed up file reads. You can effectively ignore these vales as they will always grow to fill your ram and will be evicted when programs require memory and there is not enough free.
These tools are not lieing to you, just telling you something other then what you are reading into them. Tracking and reporting on what is using memory is a complex topic and here used is just what is physically allocate. It doesn't mean much over all as it always tends to be full of your system has been running for a decent amount of time. Available is typically the more useful one to look at as it is an estimate about how much the kernel can reclaim now if an application request it without needing to swap things out.

Seriously tho. This person is arguing that a checkers program is "AI". It kinda demonstrates the loooong history of this grift.
Yeah that’s exactly what I took from the above comment as well.
I have a pretty simple bar: until we’re debating the ethics of turning it off or otherwise giving it rights, it isn’t intelligent. No it’s not scientific, but it’s a hell of a lot more consistent than what all the AI evangelists espouse. And frankly if we’re talking about the ethics of how to treat something we consider intelligent, we have to go beyond pure scientific benchmarks anyway. It becomes a philosophy/ethics discussion.

Many things still don’t work for me just a black screen. I try from time to time. I’m using bottles and disabled X11 permissions in flatpak to test wayland. I only play older titles (pre-2010). The oldest game I have is Total Annihilation (1997), and I also have Anno 1602 (1998). Neither game runs on Wayland, and they’re not the only ones. Some games do work, like majesty 2, but it has broken camera movement with the mouse. Wayland and wndows are too different to make certain behaviors match, so Xwayland is still needed for some applications.

HyperCard was basically the viewer/player for HyperCard stacks/files. HyperStudio was the program used to make them.
This is incorrect. The HyperCard application could both create and play back HyperCard stacks. It could also export them as stand-alone applications which people could use without needing to run HyperCard.
::: spoiler HyperStudio was something else, not shipped by Apple.
The author describes it here:
It was inspired by HyperCard and Ted Nelson’s ideas of hypertext and hypermedia. But whereas HyperCard was a database of alphanumeric data controlled by a scripting language, HyperStudio was founded on the idea of the primary layer being a paint program, and linking (“hyper-”) media (“studio”) together in an object-oriented, rather than lexical (program language), environment. The result was a program that is its own category of software. That is to say, HyperStudio has an extremely unique environment, and although it can create videos, presentations, animations and comic-style (graphic novel) digital stories, it is neither movie-making software, presentation software, and animation program, nor a comic-book maker. It is HyperStudio and no other program has ever duplicated or even successfully approximated its functionality.
see also en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HyperStu…
:::
I should admit that it’s been years since I messed around with old Macintosh or looked into the old Mac retro sites, it’s probably out there somewhere…
You can use HyperCard on an emulated Mac in a web browser at system7.app/ - it's in the Multimedia folder there 😀
Interesting. I only recall 2 programs when I took the HyperStudio class, where the HyperCard Player was free for all to use, but couldn't make projects.
HyperStudio was the paid program that the school had paid licensing fees to use, and as such we weren't allowed to copy that software.
Maybe I missed the original HyperCard itself, we were only allowed to copy and share HyperCard Player, which most definitely could not create projects, only play them.
The moderators of a pro-artificial intelligence Reddit community announced that they have been quietly banning “a bunch of schizoposters” who believe “they've made some sort of incredible discovery or created a god or become a god,” highlighting a new type of chatbot-fueled delusion that started getting attention in early May.“LLMs [Large language models] today are ego-reinforcing glazing-machines that reinforce unstable and narcissistic personalities,” one of the moderators of r/accelerate, wrote in an announcement. “There is a lot more crazy people than people realise. And AI is rizzing them up in a very unhealthy way at the moment.”
The moderator said that it has banned “over 100” people for this reason already, and that they’ve seen an “uptick” in this type of user this month.
The moderator explains that r/accelerate “was formed to basically be r/singularity without the decels.” r/singularity, which is named after the theoretical point in time when AI surpasses human intelligence and rapidly accelerates its own development, is another Reddit community dedicated to artificial intelligence, but that is sometimes critical or fearful of what the singularity will mean for humanity. “Decels” is short for the pejorative “decelerationists,” who pro-AI people think are needlessly slowing down or sabotaging AI’s development and the inevitable march towards AI utopia. r/accelerate’s Reddit page claims that it’s a “pro-singularity, pro-AI alternative to r/singularity, r/technology, r/futurology and r/artificial, which have become increasingly populated with technology decelerationists, luddites, and Artificial Intelligence opponents.”
The behavior that the r/accelerate moderator is describing got a lot of attention earlier in May because of a post on the r/ChatGPT Reddit community about “Chatgpt induced psychosis,”

GNU Octave version 10.2.0 has been released and is now available for download. An official Windows binary installer is available. For ma...octave.org
For one thing it will run a lot of existing and proven Matlab code.
Another is that Octave and Matlab syntax is ambiguous about functions vs indexes (has pros and cons).
And don't get me wrong (I use jupyter and python a lot and really do like it) but numpy can get fundamentally weird in the way indexing maps to memory in ways that I don't remember happening back when I mostly used Octave.
For me the major advantage of python is having access to other non-numerical things. It's so difficult to do anything not-numerics in Octave and Matlab or to use even basic data structures like lists and trees. Python is sort of a basic object language that makes some of the things that would otherwise make you scream for Lisp possible. That's worth the numpy annoyances. Otherwise I would probably be using julia.
While everyone’s getting hyped about “digital gold” and “financial freedom,” BlackRock is sitting there with over 530,000 Bitcoin — that’s more than half a million coins — laughing all the way to the…HR NEWS (Medium)

American Werewolf in London
The title alone makes it sound like a cheesy 80s goofy movie...and it kinda is. But the practical effects are right up there with The Thing. It makes you invested in the characters and the main conflict is really tough. It's more dark and gritty than you would expect, especially near the end. The werewolf transformation scene has some of the best practical effects in film. It's stomach churning.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but the commands would apply within the zsh, which is a bash alternative, not within the programmes running themselves?
Or are you saying its sus because its illogical/confusing to have opposite uses for tgebsame shirt cut? I can see that as people using a terminal and launching vim would constantly be working against "muscle memory" each time they switch which would be annoying! Being familiar with keyboard shortcuts is what can make terminal based workflows so fast.

Would you like some pie? Check it out here: piefed.ca/What is PieFed
PieFed follows a similar format as Lemmy and Mbin. Those that are familiar with Lemmy will find it very similar, with some additional features including topic lists, optional private voting, new mod and admin tools, crosspost de-duplication, community wikis, etc. Thanks to how the fediverse works, you can use either lemmy.ca or piefed.ca to interact freely!
We will put together some guides on our non-profit's website at some point. In the meantime, we have created !newtopiefed@piefed.ca for us to learn from each other. There is also the official !piefed_help@piefed.social community which has a similar purpose.
We have done some testing and we are learning as we go, but please bear with us while this new platform gets going 🙂

So lemmy.ca and piefed.ca have different feeds altogether when I view them, are they two separate things then?
Separate things, just the same admin I guess. You can follow the same communities from either one.
I have a Mastodon account and I haven’t sorted out any way to post on/read lemmy content with it
On Mastodon, follow the account for this community, just Mastodon uses @ instead of ! so it's @fediverse@lemmy.world and you can post to the community by mentioning it
You can paste URLs of Lemmy posts/comments into the search bar of Mastodon to pull it up. Just make sure you use the real URL and not a mirror, so you need to get the URL from Lemmy's Fediverse icon

Like I'm not one of THOSE. I know higher = better with framerates.
BUT. I'm also old. And depending on when you ask me, I'll name The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask as my favourite game of all time.
The original release of that game ran at a glorious twenty frames per second. No, not thirty. No, not even twenty-four like cinema. Twenty. And sometimes it'd choke on those too!
.... And yet. It never felt bad to play. Sure, it's better at 30FPS on the 3DS remake. Or at 60FPS in the fanmade recomp port. But the 20FPS original is still absolutely playable.
Yet like.
I was playing Fallout 4, right? And when I got to Boston it started lagging in places, because, well, it's Fallout 4. It always lags in places. The lag felt awful, like it really messed with the gamefeel. But checking the FPS counter it was at... 45.
And I'm like -- Why does THIS game, at forty-five frames a second, FEEL so much more stuttery and choked up than ye olde video games felt at twenty?

My favorite game of all time is Descent, PC version to be specific, I didn't have a PlayStation when I first played it.
The first time I tried it, I had a 386sx 20MHz, and Descent, with the graphics configured at absolute lowest size and quality, would run at a whopping 3 frames per second!
I knew it was basically unplayable on my home PC, but did that stop me? Fuck no, I took the 3 floppy disks installer to school and installed it on their 486dx 66MHz computers!
I knew it would just be a matter of time before I got a chance to upgrade my own computer at home.
I still enjoy playing the game even to this day, and have even successfully cross compiled the source code to run natively on Linux.
But yeah I feel you on a variety of levels regarding the framerate thing. Descent at 3 frames per second is absolutely unplayable, but 20 frames per second is acceptable. But in the world of Descent, especially with modern upgraded ports, the more frames the better 👍
I haven't actually played Free Space before, but I did manage to get a copy and archive it a few years ago.
I also got a copy of Overload and briefly tried that, but on my current hardware it only runs at about 3 frames per second...
The Descent developers were really ahead of their time and pushing gaming to the extreme!
Vertigo was actually an expansion on Descent 2, I made the NoCD patch for it via a carefully hex edited mod based on another NoCD patch for the original Descent 2.
Any which way, yeah, anyone with vertigo wouldn't be comfortable or oriented in any way if they're watching or playing the game, no matter what version.

Thanks for answering.
"I don't have any evidence, I just think so, and I'm old" is enough for me to understand your mentality.
Is it wrong to enjoy art made by bad people? I think it's a very complicated question and the answers will definitely have a lot of variation between people. What if it really is a good art? Or just enjoyable? Should everyone avoid it? People still listen music by Michael Jackson, for example, are they bad because of it?
My own approach is that qualities of what someone creates don't need to be inseparably tied to the personality or views of the author. Everyone can enjoy what they like without the obligation to find out details of the author and adjust their preference based on that. It's fine to make them aware of the problems, it's not fine to make them feel bad because they like something that is not wrong on its own. If you dislike the author enough for it to spoil their works for you, good for you. I also feel this way about some authors. But don't require it from other people.
That's my take. I'm curious, what's yours?
To be fair, your dad was probably just as scared of your teacher. Same with the principal.
If I hadn't had a dad who was a school counselor in my district used for all the worst problem kids I think I would have had a different experience. I wasn't a bad kid, but I was a weird one. As a result I got to see behind the curtain a little and think office politics plays a bigger part of why kids get in trouble than anything else (well, except actual parent involvement and how you raise your kids). Now that you mention this I think I'll take my youngest to get her eyes examined just to be safe.
Nah, if you knew my dad at the time, he insisted there was nothing wrong with my vision. I actually was already a pretty intelligent kid, mostly from book learning at the time.
Book learning worked great for me, but only because the book was close to my face, which works fine for nearsighted people. So my dad was convinced, my vision was fine.
I was disappointed at my dad for quite a few years, but ultimately had to let my anger go.
A few years later, dad asked me why I didn't tell them I had bad vision. All I could tell him was "I didn't know, until I finally got to see good vision."
I've been testing this OS for a bit, but I'm having trouble where drives are shutting down prematurely, as if the power management is too aggressive when it comes to external USB drives.
My USB hard drive will shut down on whatever timer Linux is using, despite my VirtualBox machine actively using it via Shared Folders. I have to use the Linux host and Caja to wake the drive back up. Like what the hell?
My USB DVD drive will spin up stupid fast to buffer a lot of DVD video, then Linux spins the drive down and turns it off. Then the next time it needs data, the drive has to spin up stupid high speed again, causing the video to freeze frequently while the drive spins back up, way too fast no less for the task. Why not a simple consistent speed and keep the drive running while watching a movie? VLC if that matters, on the host Linux.
Is this a power management configuration issue? Are these somehow the same issue, or are they two separate issues?
What should I do to resolve/reconfigure?
Well shit, I figured out what the real issue was.
I'm on a laptop with only 3 USB ports, and I'm running a physical laptop hard drive on an adapter on one USB port, and a laptop CD/DVD drive on another adapter on another port.
Obviously that's probably pushing the power limits of the USB power, but it's worked before, so I didn't see why it wasn't quite working right now.
But this time I was trying a different DVD drive, an HP TS-T633P slot loader drive. Apparently that drive is extra power hungry compared to a conventional laptop drive, so I dug out my old tray loader drive.
Apparently the slot loader drive was competing with the hard drive for power, and they were apparently taking turns robbing power from each other. The system is perfectly happy with the tray loader drive though, no reconfiguration necessary!

While I agree with your assertion in theory, I cannot agree that windows doesn't mess with grub. I have had 5 different issues with grub being overwritten, 1 was because windows and Linux were on the same drive, but the other 4 was simply because I launched windows through grub.
My advice for people dual booting is to never launch windows through grub and instead change your boot order in bios, this has made all of my boot related issues go away.

It's a bit diffident when you don't have big megacorp subsidies (Meta, Google, various local-market apps, etc) & have to buy all hardware from third parties. And perhaps not have planned obsolescence. And upsales. And ad revenue. And frown upon slave or unhappy workforce & other negative society impacts.
Also it looks like an ok phone, low spec cameras, but still the usual dimensions, OLED, enough RAM & CPU to be usable in desktop mode, Linux.
I see your point, but... I don't know. Nowadays, attention is a prime commodity. The easier something is to consume, the more people it will reach. And while that doesn't matter as much in entertainment media, it has to be considered when designing for more important topics. Thus, media has to be designed to be read efficiently.
I don't love how media is designed nowadays, precisely because it is monotonous and boring often, but I don't long for the days when I had to look an entire page over for the bit of information I'm after. A balance can be struck through clear layout design and following trends that respect hierarchy. Maximalism does neither.
Though, I feel like I have to differentiate artistic media from informative media. Art can go bonkers, in fact art should challenge established tropes, but design should prioritize function over form, keeping in mind there is some room for aesthetics in there.
Again, I'm approaching this from an efficiency and ease of use point of view.
Ah, thanks! Didn't know that. I guess it wont have an effect then and can be ignored.
Edit: fixed up wording.

What is Ghost?
Yet another site or project where you read endless paragraphs that talk abstractly about ideas and concepts instead of just showcasing what the delivered product/app actually is or looks like. Drives me up the goddamn wall sometimes. Why should I be interested, you know what I'm saying?
Edit: alright guys, every person doesn't have to reply saying what it is. I'm not actually interested anymore. My point was to whine about how it wasn't clear from their home page. 👍 When I realized it was too hard to figure out what this is, I lost interest.

OP linked to an entry in their newsletter. If you check out their site, they are being pretty clear that they're in the business of "Independent technology for modern publishing", stating in pretty big letters that "Ghost is a powerful app for professional publishers to create, share, and grow a business around their content. It comes with modern tools to build a website, publish content, send newsletters & offer paid subscriptions to members.".
Reading their newsletters would get boring fast if they started every single one of them with repeating what they are.

Just wondering.
Are there minimalists here who tailor the distro used to their pc or sbc? Custom kernel. Swap default programs for simpler ones. That kind of stuff.
Are there examples of someone using (for instance) buildroot to create a custom 'distro' as daily driver?
If so. Curious about the technical details but also the 'why?' question.
Hi everyone, I'm planning on moving from w11 to kubuntu (lts release - 24.04). I'm a gamer at heart, a game designer by education, and wanting to get away from Windows. I could really use some top tips, best practices, and things to look out for. I have run Linux on a Chromebook, but never as my primary PC.
I'm preparing by copying tax info, critical documents, game prototypes, and D&D documents to a USB.
Then run Linus from a different USB on restart?
Thank you for your help, and any references to specific how-to's 😅.
