  • go to church

    And how many have read at least one testament? Reading is not rare anymore

  • For all their “christianity”, republicans in the US are pretty hypocritical

    No, no, you were indoctrinated by people with agenda
    Jesus was saying, and everyone was obeying, like a good person does

    /s in case it's not clear

  • Depends how one looks at it. From purely practical POV, probably 90% of us don't need to bolt their doors so much. But as a principle, as a society we've lost the "war" on privacy so much, that it really takes a long way to pull the dial back to where it should be

  • yeah, you need some help

    🤡

    On serious note, have you by any chance somehow saved the previous start and end values? Like in history of the shell, terminal or even a piece of paper?
    I've found out in the past, that if you recreate the partition table as it was, the data will be read fine

    Otherwise, you might need to use RescueCd to try and get the partition borers back. But if you haven't rebooted since that fateful keypress, first focus on trying to get to what partition borders were printed in the terminal earlier. IMO it will be the fastest and easiest
    Even if you will get those in cylinders and will have to calculate those back to MBs

  • One just cannot avoid trampling ants when walking

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahimsa_in_Jainism#Ascetic_practices_for_adherence_to_Ahimsa

    Jain ascetics sweep the ground before them to avoid injuring the most minuscule forms of life. They generally brush the ground clear of insects before they tread. Digambara monks do not wear any clothes and eat food only when it is not prepared for themselves. Ascetics of the Śvētāmbara tradition wear a small mask to avoid taking in tiny insects.

    Apparently, some already try since quite some time now

  • I don't think they do, honestly. Being rich does not necessarily mean being smart

    And those who pay for not being brought up on the lists of most rich, probably don't use tech themselves

    Their wealth comes from stocks, bonds and land, not an account that can be hacked. Their safety against kidnapping for ransom comes from being pals with most of politicians and/or having clout in the right circles to help any politician that will ping high enough to be allowed to get an appointment

  • At that point just let me ditch the formality and send over the summary in the first place.

    A tangent a little bit but so much this. Why haven't we normalized using fewer words already?
    Why do we keep writing (some blogs and all of content marketing) whole screens of text to convey just a sentence of real content?
    Why do we keep the useless hello and regards instead of just directly getting to the points already?

  • I didn't notice it going bad. What's going on?

  • According to modlog it was against Rule#2

  • Wasn't there the same question here yesterday?

  • I don't know

    Fortunately
    but maybe "yet"...

    I Ducked https://activisthandbook.org/wellbeing/deescalation maybe one of the sources would be helpful?

    EDIT: purely what I (from my chair) think might work: (of course, don't step outside your own boundaries, safety etc)

    • address the provocateur - to redirect the emotions from the police, so situationally it's not their place to respond anymore
    • be calm and try to address that this is not the way we want to protest. "I understand that you are angry. I am too. But this is not the way we can change things, violence is not the answer..." - to dissipate the anger put out by the provocateur so it's not picked up by non-provocateurs
    • probably if those will be organized, they will be moving in packs and pairs, so when you address one guy, another one will try to pick up the anger. That's why it's important that many of protesters are aware that provocations might be taking place and be ready to back you up with calming down

    EDIT2:

    • if you are successful they will be trying to trigger you. Be mindful of your tone and body language - your role is not to convince them, but to affect the mood around you. We are social creatures, the point is to not get to the point of a pack of angry wolves
    • remember that they don't have to be a provocateur, they might be just a protester that is that angry at the situation. Be respectful, don't get into accusation/blame game
    • remember that provocateurs don't have to be bald burly men
  • I think the message was "be prepared to de-escalate provocations during protests"

  • Why not just cooperate with nexus mods? Their new app (yes, still a deep beta) works quite well

  • students

    When I was a student I despised the idea of typeless var in C#. Then a few years later at my day job I fully embraced C++ auto. I understand the frustration but unfortunately being wrong is part of learning

  • I don't think such trend would be so big. And anyone who has used any LLM for programming learns very quickly that those are very far from replacing anyone

  • They don’t want to use those tools, legal or technical, because it goes against the spirit of FOSS, even if it’s to stop someone else who is abusing the spirit of FOSS.

    I'm not convinced. It all started from a license saying "if you want to distribute your version, you have to license it the same". One either plays by the rules or the modification doesn't see the light of day. And at the time of publication, it was rather radical stance
    Freedom sometimes has to be enforced

    This is not a story about a company denying free trial to another company because the latter is big. It's about the latter leeching resources from supporters who's money go towards the fleet that serves their 4k VM "trial"

    It is against the spirit of FOSS
