No idea. It could no longer unlock the LUKS encryption after rebooting from an upgrade. I had to work and just nuked it and started fresh. It happened on both my laptop and desktop after updating, so seems like a bad update.

I switched from Pop_OS! to KDE Neon because I wanted to try out the latest Plasma features. I was tired of GNOME's bloat and needing an extension/Tweaks for basic functionality.

Then KDE broke screen sharing, bricked my install once by breaking LUKS disk encryption, and then it booted to a black screen on updating to the latest LTS.......

So now I'm on Mint and all of my servers are on Debian because I want something that just works. Lol. No more distro hopping.

Hopefully this is sarcasm

It's right next to the gas price slider. Duh.

What the article DOESN'T say: The way they accessed these telecom networks was through a backdoor INSTALLED by US Intelligence agencies.

This is the reason why you don't fucking put backdoors in your code/software/hardware. Security advocates consistently say "don't fucking do that because it'll be discovered and exploited by bad actors".....and yet.....

How long before Musk/Trump merges Twitter and Truth? They're basically the same place at this point.

Wow. It's almost like we've been warning for years that putting backdoors into software, systems, and encryption would allow nefarious parties to exploit them.

Thanks. I need eye bleach now.

Five person family. Two adults and three kids.

Sure, but it's still fucking stupid.

I just buy toilet paper from Costco once every one to two months and I'm fine.....these people are insane, stupid, or both. Seriously WTF does toilet paper have to do with survival? Just get a bidet if it gives you this much anxiety FFS.

I'm all for Sodium batts in cars, but my understanding is this battery tech is a different chemical composition than other Sodium Ion batteries. Most of those are not solid state AFAIK.

Actually exciting battery tech that isn't just fluff. They actually built the thing and tested it, rather than it being a theoretical, not-easily-produced thing and it worked.

As others have said, this is for grid-scale and not EVs, but still exceptional progress and very important for energy storage.

That article screams "written by an AI". It repeats itself so much, it's like a kid trying to hit the 1k word requirement for an essay in high school English.

They're just living out the P in their abbreviation.

So you're using Hyprland WM.... I'm assuming to have a minimalistic Window Manager..... But you want an app launcher.

No offense, but FFS just use a DE at that point. You're just creating a DE with extra steps. KDE is nice and fairly lightweight.

They're pushing for that, but it isn't what this person was taking about that they quoted. Nowhere in the article does any direct quote say that.

We know that's the path they're going to take by their actions, but they're extrapolating in an article quoting something else.

This article is clickbait garbage. What they said is SO MUCH WORSE, but calling it "Menstrual Surveillance" is fucking stupid. While menstruation and pregnancy are obviously related, they're not the same thing.

What they actually said is that they want to have states he able to monitor pregnancies so they can know if a woman becomes pregnant, but then suddenly isn't anymore, so they can question them for an abortion, either illegally in state or out-of-state. Given they're also pushing to monitor menstrual cycles alongside pregnancies, it's full on police state shit that goes even further than what is described.

Clear. Concise. Factual. That's all you need. The right already gives you what you need to show how fucked up they are. You don't have to clickbait. It's dystopian enough on its own.
