Wow, all the corrupt, disgraced former politicians hate him. I guess that’s a sort of endorsement.

There’s a death star on the other side of the fence.

Or to copy something and modify it 30 times.

This seems like a very bad idea. I think we just need more lisp and less AI.

That’s crazy.

Since GPUs got into the TFLOP range I often think of this old magazine cover:

Zero chance this company replaced him with an AI that actually does anything useful.

I was a pretty experienced programmer when I first read SICP, but I still found it incredibly valuable. I’d recommend it to anyone.

It’s such a good idea. I can’t believe they didn’t think of it sooner.

I don’t disagree exactly, but I’d argue that you’re contributing to the project even if you’re just reporting bugs or helping others with it on e.g. Lemmy.

I could see avoiding all of that pragmatically in order to use some obscure, critical software, but not something you use every day and for which there are reasonable alternatives.

This is what I came here to say. This is a sovereignty issue they could solve with a miniscule portion of their defense budgets.

It’s kind of absurd. When you buy a TV, the bloated adware at least helps lower the price. Imagine paying extra for it.

Fair enough, most of that isn’t something a user should have to worry about.

VT is just Virtual Terminals. You always have one of them active, and in most distros you can switch to others by Ctrl-Alt-F1 through F12. In some distos it’s just Alt-F1.

So if you press Ctrl-Alt-F2 you should be brought to a text login. For crazy historical reasons you may have to either press Ctrl-Alt-F1 or Ctrl-Alt-F7 to get back to your usual graphical session.

I use Orgzly, but that’s mostly because I sync it with Emacs on other devices. I tend to organise things in a tree, but it’s quite flexible.

I would try:

• see if you can get logs of the resume process
• suspend from a text VT and see if that changes the behaviour
• boot into single user mode and try suspend from there
• boot an older LTS or a newer test kernel and see if it has the same problem

I just started using finamp a couple of weeks ago and this inspired me to install the beta.

If I find any problems I’ll try to get involved on the repository. Discord is a bit of a turnoff though.

I use gnome-session-inhibit quite a bit, but it’s hard to imagine a good way to automate it.

Sometimes I inhibit idle to keep something on screen, and sometimes I just inhibit suspend so something can complete.

It probably doesn’t make sense for the terminal to have anything more than a protocol to control it. The only real benefit to that would be in remote sessions, and it’s not really clear how it should work when multiple machines are involved.

A GPU is forever

It sounds like you’d benefit from having a project in mind. I always learned programming languages by building something I wanted, or by tinkering on someone else’s project.

The immigration rhetoric is largely kayfabe.

I think it’s the same with the tariffs. In fact, I think it’s the same with everything he promises. He’ll do a token amount of each horrible thing before he gets bored of it or it becomes obviously impractical (see: wall building).

Mostly he’ll just make everything slightly worse and do a lot of corruption for him and his friends. Just a little light kleptocracy.

This as close to actual England as EPCOT England has ever been.

I case you haven’t seen it, there’s a famous photo giving that same vibe that would go around on Reddit regularly:
