I’ve never heard anyone say that Flatpaks could result in losing access to the terminal.

My only problem with Flatpaks are the lack of digital signature, neither from the repository nor the uploader. Other major package managers do use digital signatures, and Flatpaks should too.

OBS worked pretty well for me last time I used it, using the basic package Debian provided.

This doesn’t change the fact that 47 is the current problem, and is the one currently talking about nuclear war. No matter how bad Biden would have been on this issue, he is currently irrelevant.

We’re talking about nuclear war right now.

My problem with that theme is that it doesn’t highlight any buttons. I believe all buttons should have borders, especially the ones the titlebar. This helps distinguish a noninteractive label from an interactive clickable button.

This survey doesn’t distinguish between levels of cloud service provider, so I was a little confused.

Virtual private servers, cloud virtual servers (like AWS), cloud-based software where you provide code or a program and the cloud system runs it on a server of its choosing, and cloud-based systems where someone else provides the software (like Google Docs).

Kanopy looks like they use Widevine DRM. I will continue using other DRM-free sources.

Turn signals are not optional.

I like git add because then you can do git diff --staged

I can’t seem to upload images, but if you image-search for:

“we’ve completed our review and found this account’s activity goes against whatsapp’s terms of service”

You will find screenshots you can download and use as fake proof that you are banned.

When I had to contact Facebook to get an account unlocked, they took about a month to respond to each email, and never did unlock the account no matter how much proof I sent them. I expect WhatsApp is similar, since it’s owned by the same company. So just say that they hardly respond, and they say things they’ve already said, ask you to try things you’ve already tried, or they ask for documents you’ve already sent them.

Why were you banned? Maybe you accidentally signed in on a phishing page, and they sent spam using your account. Maybe you created an account, and your first action was to contact a person you hadn’t contacted before (obviously), and it was marked as spam. Maybe you signed up on an IP address previously used by a spam-sending datacenter (this happened a lot to me at my old house). Maybe your phone number was banned from WhatsApp before you got it, but you already gave it to too many people to be able to change it.

When I worked on OpenStack for a few years, 80% of the bugs I fixed were type errors that could have been prevented by Python being staticly typed.

That is not a reasonable living condition. I can’t pretend that it’s normal to live like that. A person deserves way more than 15m^2 of space.

If you’re trans: Start making plans to flee. You don’t have to carry them out right now. But do get a passport, even if it has to have your deadname. Canada or Mexico probably wouldn’t accept a US refugee just for being trans right now, but that will change in the future.

If you’re an immigrant, or even a permanent resident: It’s unsafe in the US right now. I wouldn’t fault you if you left today. However, everyone’s circumstances are different. Maybe you want to stay and support your spouse and kids who are citizens, and you’re willing to risk your life to do it. It depends on the circumstances.

Anyone else: Stay and fight.

Jellyfin depends on proprietary Microsoft .NET, even on Linux.

It’s still better than Plex and Emby, which are fully proprietary, and have no source code. But I will stick with sshfs with kodi, and nginx plus mpv for now.

Sure, here are some:

The main feature would be that if flathub (or a hacker with access to flathub) acted maliciously, digital signatures would prevent them from issuing malware infested updates to flatpaks. Only the software’s originator would have the cryptographic key needed to sign releases of the software.

The risk of dependency vulnerabilities is real.

Also, flatpak packages are not digitally signed, unlike apt and all other major Linux distro package managers.

One woman told me that she identifies as bisexual, even though she is attracted to all genders including non-binary, because she has two “modes” of dating. When dating women, she prefers to be the pursuer. When dating men, she prefers to be the pursued. I’m not sure which way she usually went with enbies.

There are no useful quantum computers. If you disagree, provide a citation.

The quantum computers that exist can’t solve anything that can’t be done better and faster by a normal computer.
