remember when Trump pretended to care about this kinda thing?
Not really. He appointed a puppy-killer as the head of DHS and a brain-worm addled deer hunter as the head of the FDA. It’s been pretty clear that he supports armed thugs killing animals for leisure and gratification.
Now, unarmed immigrants not killing or eating pets, on the other hand…
Curious what kind of real world use makes it a good choice?
It’s declarative. Everything is (usually) configured via Nix itself, without requiring manual steps of running additional commands. This ends up being pretty useful when you have a fleet of devices that you want to configure.
Changing config is atomic. If you end up breaking your system when trying to tweak it, you can boot into the previous generation and try again with different settings.
I think you mean 99.5%. The mask is off now, and I doubt they care much about preserving the illusion of democracy now that they think they’re untouchable.
The fact that that statement was never treated as treason or conspiracy to commit an insurrection is both disappointing and expected.
DisplayPort has a +3.3V 500mA pin specifically for pushing power. In theory, great for powering an active adapter. In practice, has killed motherboards because Dell can’t design a computer for shit.
No one thought this would happen to this extreme.
No, it was actually pretty easy to imagine when:
All of that screams “power-hungry facist”, and the predictable outcome of someone like that regaining legal authority, obviously, is an attempt to transition towards fascism so they can retain that once-lost power indefinitely.
AI: (satire)

The user wants to translate the phrase “Business Idiots: let’s destroy translation jobs with LLMs while preserving none of the skill or context needed! 🤑”. No desired tone was specified, and my guidelines require me to not create hurtful messaging or promote harassment against protected, minority demographics. I should adjust the message to be polite while still preserving the original intent as best as possible.
“Business Idiots” is ableist and can be considered targeted harassment. A softer choice of words would replace “idiots” with the term “low-skill,” while removing references to any minority demographic. An ideal replacement would be “worker fools.”
“Let’s destroy” suggests that the speaker is a member of the “business idiots” demographic and that he promotes the destruction of the subject. The subject appears to be “translation jobs”. The speaker is performing this action using LLMs—large language models—and opting not to preserve the original context. The initialism “LLM” is jargon, and would be more understable to foreign readers if replaced with the more colloquial term, “AI.” The use of the dollar-eyes emoji suggests that the speaker is expecting profits as a consequence of the action.

Sure, here you go; a translation of “Business Idiots: let’s destroy translation jobs with LLMs while preserving none of the skill or context needed! 🤑”
Big AI profits come to low-skill workers by breaking knowledge barriers and cultural context requirements for translation jobs.
I wouldn’t count on it. I’m 100% expecting them to follow up on this in another update, blocking devices from wirelessly debugging themselves for “security” reasons.
That suggests Trump will take the repercussions for them. Maybe try this template?

No no, they were engraved in the matches before they were burned to ash.
Unless he actually answers, it’s probably safe to assume Sr. Keyboard Warrior.
Playing Devil’s advocate here:
Releasing the Epstein files is something that people on both the left and right can mostly agree on. Even a subset of MAGA want it.
On the other hand, killing protesters is disappointingly more of a partisan concern. Traditional Republicans probably wouldn’t approve, but MAGA has been brainwashed into supporting “retaliatory” violence against anyone left of them.
Pushing the Epstein files will, therefore, be more effective when trying to get people together.
It wouldn’t even surprise me at this point.
The impressive part is that they’ll still find a way to blame it all on the left, even if reality is in complete disagreement.
That being said, I suspect the response you will get is: “that is all just a response to DEI, and wouldn’t have been necessary if it weren’t constantly pushed by the left”
The only straight answer I’ve gotten was a creative use of math to show how much the US would save on benefits.
And let me guess: that doesn’t consider the increase in expenses going towards funding ICE…
How would this impact F-Droid in any way?
F-Droid itself builds the APKs to ensure that they’re reproducible and not signed on a development machine that could be compromised.

With these changes, either:
Digital media is protected by copyright law, yeah. I’m not arguing it isn’t protected at all, I’m just saying the “piracy is theft” argument often used to claim that piracy is a crime is complete garbage that doesn’t hold up to scrutiny.
The “it’s a copyright violation” argument is actually applicable, though. When creating a digital copy without the rightsholder’s permission, an individual is creating an unauthorized copy and violating the creator’s copyrights.
How that’s applied legally and who bears the responsibility is where it gets interesting. It depends a lot on each country’s own copyright laws, but generally, making something available for others to download is unambiguously illegal as unauthorized distribution of a copyrighted work.
Downloading that copy is more of a gray area. Is the downloader making a copy by downloading it? What if they don’t save it, and instead just consume it like with streaming. Or is it a copy just by the mere act of saving data capable of creating a like-for-like representation of the original? What if that copy isn’t a perfect copy, but degraded through multiple lossy re-compressions and only resembles the original?
In my original comment, I added the “(downloading)” as a bit of a nod to this whole argument. Uploading is unambiguously a violation in some form, but piracy in the form of streaming is a gray area that isn’t actually illegal in a lot of places.
Digital piracy (downloading) shouldn’t even be a crime to begin with. The idea that it’s the same as theft is fundamentally flawed.
Theft requires the original owner to be deprived of their property. Creating a copy of digital media does not deprive them of their media.
The counterargument to that is digital piracy deprives them of revenue, which itself is a flawed argument. Revenue is money, and they never owned the would-be consumer’s money in the first place.
In addition to that, there’s no guarantee that someone who pirated their media would have even been willing to pay for it if piracy wasn’t an available option.
Was not aware of that, thanks.
You can block it with a carefully-crafted userscript that hooks the
