It’s OK though, they offered their top moderators an offer to participate in the IPO and also sent them goodies and snacks, what more do you want ?

“Randomly” lmao

“peace time” lmao

More like in the middle of having their land stolen, their people dying and kept under poverty for decades, and the few that resist getting killed, tortured and worse, all with the benediction - or at best lip-service against it - of the West

“Israel” is a colonialist racist project that will be destroyed

With the state of Javascript being what it is, you probably can chain syllables randomly and have a fair chance of the resulting word being the name of a temporarily-existing framework

Tucker was and is in the trade of packaging Russian propaganda as news

And much of the US “journalists” are in the business of packaging US propaganda as news. There is just as much propaganda - if not more - in general US news. Since the US likes to portray itself as hosting a free press, one would assume (if one were pretty naive, admittedly) it would be glad to have reporting on the Russian government’s positions and communiqués.

lmao this is a CIA outlet:

The organization is chaired and run primarily by former senior United States intelligence and State Department officials. Laura Thornton, formerly of International IDEA, joined ASD as its new director in May 2021. Laura Rosenberger, chair of the American Institute in Taiwan and former senior director for China on the Biden administration’s National Security Council, previously served as a director of ASD. ASD is housed at the German Marshall Fund of the United States and its work spans across both the United States and Europe

Even the fucking Washington Post (of all newpapers !) admits they’re not exactly a source to be trusted.

Si, je pense qu’ils vendent les kindle (tous les kindle) à perte; et c’est en tous cas certainement vrai pour les kindle supportés par la pub.

Perso j’achete la liseuse amazon, la version avec pubs; puis je la jailbreak pour installer KOReader et virer toute référence à Amazon, dont les pubs.

Tu as le support de l’epub, un lecteur super, et tu fais perdre de l’argent à Amazon.

I did, years ago, it worked perfectly. This was when DX9 was an option for it though, but given since then dxvk / etc. came out the DX11 renderer should not be an issue. In fact I’d be surprised if the game didn’t run as-is without any tweaks.

I suggest using the gog version. appdb suggests installing vcrun2010 might be needed but again, test beforehand.

Opened your link and immediately came across porn

Please CW it

These days the GNU rm specifically warns you and asks you to confirm before proceeding

One of the multiple lemmy newcomers that defederated from us; in their admins’ words, because we apparently “deny certain genocides”.

@suspended@lemmy.ml what “genocides” would those be exactly ?

What’s the browser you’re using ? and also please do:

glxinfo|egrep -i "^direct"

You’re looking for a line that says “direct rendering”; specifically whether or not it says “yes”. This will help pinpoint if you’re actually using your GPU or some onboard chipset instead.

With that being said, even assuming you use the latter, stuttering video playback in the browser is weird; if using firefox, out of curiosity: try to disable or enable hardware rendering (options > advanced > general), and try again. Switch it back to what it was when your test is done.

BIOS booting stays winning

News about Israel often belongs in both

Many such cases

Both the prolewiki cert and the lemmygrad one are Let’s Encrypt, not Cloudflare.

Kraken, also by Mièville, is also somewhat of a match; as well as Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman.

DVI should not control the monitor’s actual physical controls - it does include a small non-display channel but IIRC that’s used to get the display modes info from the monitor, and potentially to transmit contrast information and the like; some monitors will prevent you from adjusting contrast if DVI sends that info for example, but it certainly shouldn’t disable the power button.

My guess would be a hardware issue - in the monitor itself - which is somehow triggered by the sequence in which you do enable the displays, and your system update being unrelated. It’s a huge guess though. One thing to try is repeating both sequences (the one that locks your buttons and the one that doesn’t) using a live CD - not a “nobara 38” one if such a thing exists, another distro. Trying both monitors on another computer would be an interesting test as well, although not necessarily that helpful (because if it doesn’t occur there, it might just mean the issue is triggered by peculiarities in your graphic card).

A joke.

No, everything has to be serious at all times and we cannot find any humor in the absurdity of hell world. The last time I smiled was on August 19th, 1991. I wear a dirty ushanka at all times, do not shave, and only take cold sponge baths because hot running water is bourgeoisie decadence. Every day at exactly noon I have the same meal of an expired Maoist MRE I store in a pit covered in old issues of a revolutionary newspaper. I sleep in a bed made of flags from every failed revolution so that they are never forgotten. In the evenings I stare at a picture of vodka by candlelight, but I do not allow myself to drink because there is nothing to celebrate. Every local org has banned me after I attempted to split it by assassinating the leadership. There is no plumbing in my house I shit in a brass bucket with a picture of Gonzalo and Deng french kissing in the bottom of it. My house is actually an overturned T34 in an abandoned junkyard in Wisconsin. I have a single friend in this world and it is a tapeworm named Bordiga that I met after ingesting spoiled borscht on 9/11 in the ruins of building 7 (I blew it up after finding that a nominally leftist NGO inside of it wasn’t sufficiently anti-imperialist, the attacks on the world trade center were a perfect revolutionary moment for me to enact direct praxis against liberalism). My source of income is various MLM schemes in the former soviet bloc that have been running for so long no one remembers who I am, they just keep sending money. I have not paid taxes since McGovern lost the Democratic nomination for president and my faith in electoralism died more brutally than my childhood dog after it got into an entire jar of tylenol. I own 29 fully automatic rusted kalashnikovs and three crates of ammunition entirely incompatible with them or any other firearms I own. My double PHD in marxist economics and 18th century Swiss philosophy (required to understand Engels) sits over the fireplace of my home, my fireplace is a salvaged drum from a 1950s washing machine that was recalled for locking children inside of it. I chose that washing machine model on purpose because I am anti-natalist. During the latest BLM protests I firebombed a Nikes outlet in the middle of a peaceful candlelit vigil. William F Buckley and I wrote hatemail to one another for 47 years until my final letter gave him an aneurysm. The only water I drink is from puddles. George Lucas and I dropped acid together during an MKULTRA southern baptist summer camp and he went on to write the movie Willow about our time together. The best way to test whether an electrical wire is live is to drool on it and shrimp salad is racist. You can make an IED out of potassium and the instructions are online thanks to Timothy McVey, who was actually a committed antifascist communist slandered by the deep state as part of operation condor. Every time a liberal files a restraining order against me, I carve a mark into the wall. I am running out of walls. When Amerika finally collapses I will be ready to lead the revolution. I am very smart and people like being around me.

I really wanted to avoid a debate (doubly so in a thread where some dude just wanted some help), which is why I’m trying not to engage the various answers I got; though just one thing since I apparently can’t help myself: Qubes, which you cite, is indeed an example of such improved security done correctly, through an hypervisor and a solid implementation; not cgroups, some duct-tape and the same kernel, and thinking your security has improved. Thanks again, at any rate.

I disagree with most of the benefits you list (chief among them “increased security”) - not to mention half of them are already supported by traditional package managers - but I was genuinely curious so thanks for the rationale.
