I think it would be. Not morally, just i don't think he's competent enough.

A lot of them already called him "the God Emperor", so...

Huh, having separate append permission is interesting. i didn't realize that was an option.

Kind of a Hitleriam 'stache, too, being completely honest.

...it didn't even register with me until i read this comment. I didn't even realize something was amiss. FML.

If swiping documents and selling them to foreign governments is an official act, and the Court seems to believe it should be assumed that, then i don't see why not.

You know that's bullshit.

Man it's crazy how these fuckers basically get to ignore copyright law whenever it's inconvenient to them but if you have one too many Windows machines provisioned they'll send the Spanish Inquisition after you.

Big part, for sure.

Uranium isn't the only possible fuel. It's just the one we've been using (because it's the one that lets you make nuclear weapons).

Nuclear power is actually safer than almost everything, period. Even with the major accidents. Yes, even renewables and other "green" energy.

See this comment's chart, for example: https://lemmy.ml/comment/11910773

I wish this article would have delved into the details of the system because it's even more incoherent and insane than you think.

Google also lost a court case and had this system forced onto them by the law. I believe it would literally take a change in the dmca (ideally just repeal it or strip all the anti consumer bs out of it) for them to be allowed to do anything different.

Yeah the common factor in all their games having fucked up communities is them.

Riot Games is incredibly good at generating asshole players and incredibly bad at doing anything about them. I've never had players on my own team intentionally try to throw the game as hard as i had in Riot's games. It's not only the low level players, either.

It's incredible that this is such a big point of debate. This kind of thing is really ignoring the material reality of racism in favor of the minutiae. Let's have some 40 acres and a mule, then we can start talking about race conditions.

Rudy didn't give a fuck. He wanted an excuse for cops to arrest and menace the underclasses and he got it. The cops loved him for it.

If you go back to 2012, Vice Presidential pick Paul Ryan listed RATM as his favorite band. At least the MAGA people are raging against something and they think it's the machine, but Paul Ryan was a technocratic dweeb who probably would've gotten shoved in a locker in high school if his dad wasn't rich. Paul Ryan was supposed to be smart, too, but i guess whether you're smart or not doesn't matter if you live in a fantasy world. You're doing to make a fool of yourself either way.

All the PPA maintainers went to Arch.

I think you already got a good answer but let me throw in another:

Fedora's dnf provides some good history and update reversion tools. You can use:

dnf history list

to get a list of all actions taken on the system since install. Use "dnf history info 5" to get info on the 5th transaction. (Get the transaction ID numbers from "dnf history list".)

Then to revert a change use either:

dnf history rollback or dnf history undo

Using undo reverses a single transaction, so if you have one where you did something like "dnf install tmux" and then ran undo on it then that would be equivalent to running "dnf remove tmux" in terms of what it does on your system.

Rollback does what you might think: it basically goes through all the updates between the most recent and the one specified and it reverses each of them, theoretically restoring the system to the state it was in at that time.

I say "theoretically" because this isn't a perfect system. For example, if you have an update where you removed some software that had some customizations done to it and then went through a rollback it'll put that software back but may be missing configurations you applied to it, so potentially it could cause some issues if those were important. This gets into a lot of complicated stuff and tbh it is a powerful but imperfect system. Something like Atomic gives you more of a guarantee that a rollback will work because the whole system state is defined by the installer, not just the packages.

There's one more note: Fedora removes old versions of packages from its repos so you'll need to add their historical archives repo to do certain things. I forget how to do that off the top of my head.

This may not be what you want exactly but it's a powerful tool that's good to be aware of.

See this for more info.
