It's been a few decades since I got into it, but can you tell me the best Linux alternatives to Adobe Premiere / After Effects, Final Cut Pro, and AVID? I've tried a few and they tend to have problems with crashing and overall limited functionality.
I'm a Linux developer who's made Electron apps, I have complete and total understanding of everything you're saying. You don't seem to be understanding the thing we're saying, which is that if you really really need a specific Microsoft or Adobe product, your best option is still Windows or Mac since Wine isn't very good. This is a fault of those corporations, not technology.
That's exactly what he said, and then he also said except for industry-specific software like video editing, graphic design, etc, where big companies don't offer a Linux version and the alternatives aren't quite up to par. It's true there's Offcie 365 online but it's still subpar compared to the real deal, like if you're a PowerPoint or Excel power user or really need Access or another specialized program.
I'm all for Linux, these big companies have just eaten a lot of the market and refuse to play nice.
Just make sure that Unspecified is selected as a language in your settings, in addition to whatever languages you can read. Don't un-select "unspecified."
Ideally Lemmy wouldn't show you content that you can't interact with. Mastodon has that so it's possible, might take a feature request in the Lemmy software itself.
A few gigs of zeroes will prevent random drive-bys. At that point the partition and filesystem table of at least the first partition is overwritten and you "can" recover files off it but you'll be missing filenames and at least half the files will be corrupt due to fragmentation losing track of which files are where.
I agree with Ono that shred is a good tool for this. If you don't want to use that, try increasing the block size to at least 1M if not 16M to reduce the overhead.
Excellent example of why giant instances are bad ideas. Nazis love forcing you into a "throw the baby out with the bathwater" type choice because it means they can continue their hateful, destructive, genocidal behaviors without consequences. They're usually not stupid, they know what they're doing is wrong, they just want to keep getting away with it. So they'll go nuclear on anyone and everyone in order to maintain their comfy corner of hate.
Any moderator (or stadium owner) who doesn't give Nazis jerking off in a corner a lifetime ban is negligent, as you said.
Approximations in imperial units helps me a lot. A meter is a yard, a centimeter is about 3/8" (2.5 per inch), a millimeter is about 1/32" (half a 16th). Everyone knows how big two liters is from soda bottles. A kilogram is about two pounds. Room temperature is 20°C while 0 is freezing and 100 is boiling. 50°C is about 120°F.
If we need precision we can break out the measures, we just need to have a gut sense of this stuff.
Yeah The Intercept has had a curious history of saying things that benefit Russian foreign policy for a very long time now. Of course limiting access to the front lines of an active war is reasonable, especially when the environment and population are incredibly fluid. (This isn't America vs the Viet Cong in 1970, this is people's nephews vs their uncles and everyone's got a smart phone in their pocket.)
Thanks for all the recs!
