It's fairly important to keep it private for US citizens, see here.

From a glance at the pne64 blog there hasn't been a mention of PinePhone since Feb 2022 though. It doesn't appear to be particularly active on that product.

should be poofed out of existence

This means something very specific in the UK.

I'm always hopeful, but there was another state/city in Germany (Munich I think?) that tried to do this a long time ago, then after 10 years of not being able to move entirely over, they moved back to MS, then I think they tried again. Really flip-flopped a lot. I think stuff like this needs to be more organic in its movement rather than big bangs and milestones. Just let it creep in and take over.

First UNIX was QNX, random free CD on a magazine.

First Linux was Mandrake 7.0, then moved to RedHat, then distro hopped for about...20-25 years so far I guess :-p

Exactly. I keep hearing this "they're taking our jobs" argument, and it's been going on for a long time. The people saying this are not lookng at the stats of how many people are now employed compared to 10, 100 years ago. From the industrial revolution onwards, it's been generally an upward trend.

I think this is very clever, a great idea. I also think someone is going to figure out how to turn on iphones via NFC and upload malware of some kind.

I feel selinux should be able to do something clever here, like it can manage/block port access.

I know a guy who just says he stacks shelves at Tesco as he cannot be bothred to explain 😂

It's the best characteristic of English, I think. It's alive, it changes and we do very little to prevent that from happening (unlike French or German).

Pro tip: -z, -j are not needed by tar anymore since many years, tar will autodetect what compression was used if your distro is anything remotely modern.

"a nudge?" on a fucking motorway? JFC peoples misunderstanding of physics is terrfiying.

shakes head in Brexit

It's weird they mention the C2PA but don't link to it: https://c2pa.org/

I'm not Canadian, but as a Brit I also say Zed instead of Zee but I've never heard someone say Zed instead of Zero. WTF.

I think it was a bit of a race to be honest. If Bangladesh revoked her citizenship first, the UK couldn't have.

As a Brit-born to Brit parents, if I have gained, say, Irish citizenship (or Spanish, or Kenyan, whatever) then the UK could revoke my citizenship under the same rules. It's the fact she had another citizenship that allowed them to do this at all.

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure there are some horrible racist pieces of shit who would see it as you've described, but I don't think this is one of them.

What's the advantage of this vs running it in a container? https://github.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX

I felt the same way after making a Shooter's sandwich.

It was handy until I realised it installs to the user profile instead of system-wide. Reverted to chocolatey.
