Fou

The reason was his phrase: “This is the dirty work that Israel does for all of us,” said in the context of the strike on Iran.

The signatories believe that this could be an incitement to aggression (Article 80a) and violates the principles of peaceful foreign policy enshrined in the Constitution.

The expression “dirty work” caused a particular resonance – the authors of the appeal claim that it repeats the rhetoric of the Nazis, who used the same words to justify Babi Yar in 1942.

@gme wow. now thats a solution.

The stupendously frustrating thing for me is our engineering department is an Atlassian shop. So issue tracking = jira, wiki=Confluence. And the material in Confluence is already aggresively curated and maintained. So create a page in the appropriate place and send a link in teams. how hard is that!?

Lazy. Lazy is what it is. Can't be arsed to figure out the right - and indelible - location.

My advice: run a server (any server) or three, and keep your important / personal stuff there. It can be as simple as a Raspberry Pi with a big external SSD. The PC you use as a desktop environment should be easily built / configured from the base distro into whatever customizations you want, and you can either work with your personal files on the server, or mirror copies of them to your desktop system as appropriate (things like "living documents" should be primarily stored and backed up on servers, things like photo collections etc. can be stored on the server, but copied to the desktop for easy access like rotating wallpaper or whatever.)

If (when, really) any one of your systems goes down, it shouldn't be a big deal. If it's a server, restore from another server mirror / backups. If it's your desktop, install a new desktop and get your customizations off a server.

Of course this is an ideal, but keep in mind that SSDs are not "forever" devices, they do wear out and each single copy of your data will be corrupted some day. Spinning rust is even less reliable, in my experience, although I have one 2TB hard drive that has been online for more than 10 years now. It's mirrored, twice, on SSDs.

I've never learned about servers - never worked in IT, just a simple old hobbyist. Also never used a Raspberry Pi. But thank you! I might get around to reading up on the topic of servers over the winter. My computer has two drives, the original "spinning rust" and an SSD I installed (so quick! so quiet!). My thought is to keep Windows on a partition until I'm sure I like the distro I've chosen.

I have multiple backup drives, from a wee 4Tb Toshiba to a SparQ drive with 1Gb cartridges (a whole gigabyte, how will I ever fill it?). I'm pretty sure I've got everything saved, but I'm equally sure there'll be something I've missed.

We're moving quickly towards a world in which a minority of people (not necessarily countries or nations) have complete monopoly over sophisticated military and surveillance technology. A world in which this privileged group of people and their servile subordinates no longer need a plausible moral reason to justify using violence against those who seek autonomy. A world in which those who refuse to be servile will be assassinated wherever they hide.

What's the best distro for a windows user with some linux experience

I have used linux in a past job (I did not set it up), so im not a total noob with linux. But I am far from an expert. I bought a tablet that had a flavor of linux on it and found myself woefully unprepared trying to navigate the tablet. I was planning to use it for DnD for pdf reading, but it apparently wasn't capable of that bcz it was a rather custom OS. With windows 10 support being dropped by Microsoft in the next few months, I want to transition my desktop to Linux, and I thought I'd get a headstart on that. I have a windows 11 laptop (and I hate it), but im kinda stuck with it for now. So, in the spirit of I am a noob who isn't quite a noob, what do ya'll recommend? p.s. I used Ubuntu for a bit way way back in high school

Edit: I do game dev with Unreal. Another user pointed out that may affect my choice of distro

The solution is simple: don't rent from #Hertz.

You should not be charged for normal wear and tear, and let's not forget this is the same Company that has reported cars stolen that people have returned, have pressed charges and have gotten their own customers arrested, and have attempted to charge full tanks of gas to customers that rented a Tesla.

Seriously. Avoid Hertz like the mother-fucking-plague.

It's literally cheaper to take Uber or Lyft with all the bullshit Hertz likes to pull.

Even in Orlando.


This Is What Happens When Hertz's AI Scanner Finds Damage on Your Rental
