I just rewatched The Dark Knight Rises.

I don't remember this scene.

Iirc, permissions for iOS are required for devs to be able to use the functions/methods under those permissions.

So if the app doesn't use them, they won't show up as needing them.

ISPs already do that here in the states. The court case is to decide whether they should shut off access.

These people are willing consumers of targeted propaganda.

Olive oil is pretty much the only oil everyone in my house can have. We've done butter and ghee but it's not the right flavor for most things.

Sesame is too expensive. I hate the taste of avocado oil.

Vegetable oil is straight up soy which I'm allergic to.

Basically it's olive oil or butter for me.

I fucking hate this timeline.

Tbf ...this is a common problem

I don't know about you but I'm sick of being on the team that follows the rules and loses to the criminals that completely ignore the rules.

Unless you really need that version, you'll want to install 26 when it comes out next April (upgrade should be very seamless).

I have a soy allergy too and don't react to lecithin. My understanding is that by the time the soy is processed into lecithin, the "thing" you're allergic to is pretty much non-existent and that's why you don't react to it.

This isn't the case for all people who are allergic to soy. This is not medical advice.

Don't get too hung up on it. It was an fyi not a "stop what you're doing you newb!"

We need people to test the latest, bleeding edge. So you're helping with that! But since you're new to Linux I wanted to make sure you knew what you were getting yourself into.

It's not that odd numbers are less stable. It's more that they aren't supported for long term. Many of the lessons learned are pushed to the next version though so either way you're doing good.

I'm not a PC gamer so for me stamina and longevity matter more to me than bleeding edge technology.

Just in case you didn't know, odd numbered Ubuntu versions (in your case 25) are considered short term releases and won't be maintained beyond a year or two.

Unless you really need that version, you'll want to install 26 when it comes out next April (upgrade should be very seamless).

Even numbered versions are supported long term, often for several years.

The question I often ask clients who think this way is "How much would it cost if it did fail? Let's say this happened today. What would be the cost to replace it NOW and not only that but make sure people who are working can still do so with the interruption?

Now how much would it cost to schedule the interruption and manage the fall out in a way that is controllable?

For some, the catastrophic failure points to "hey I fixed the thing!" And the incentives for that kind of person are different from the person whose job is to mitigate risk.

It sounds like your boss is the former. In which case it's going to be fun when it fails.

I'm not in the autistic spectrum. They aren't equals and they are barely tools.

One of the last posts I read on Reddit was a student in a CompSci class where the professor put a pair of googly eyes on a pencil and said, "I'm Petie the Pencil! I'm not sentient but you think I am because I can say full sentences." The professor then snapped the pencil in half that made the students gasp.

The point was that humans anamorphize things that seem human, assigning them characteristics that make us bond to things that aren't real.

Which, honestly, is the better way to go. Treat your compute resources like cattle, not pets.

I loved the cat subreddits that were originally jailbait or otherwise banned and turned into cat subreddits.

Pocketpussy, wetpussy...they were amazing.

I don't think Lemmy would count as social media but that said, you can easily create a dummy account that just, for example, posts pictures of moths or beans or bread or whatever.

That sucks mate. I know we're all facing existential threats on a regular basis so depression and anxiety are high among the population.

But that doesn't mean you don't matter. You matter.

Glad you're getting the help you need!

I hate questions like this. Because for conservatives, taking bribes isn't an exclusionary issue. They would vote for the literal Antichrist if it meant they could oppress someone.

Sure they might care that their particular conservative representative not take bribes but if that representative took bribes but was also racist, they are going to vote for them.
