I refuse to answer such a stupid question.

It was a serious issue back then. People were wandering around on the Internet with root accounts. A lot of #linux IRC channels were kicking&banning anyone with “~root” or “root” ident with educational sentence like “Do not use root account as your ordinary account, check instructions”. We don’t see the issue widespread today since distros did very good intended “dark patterns” to push users to regular user accounts. Linux (or UNIX) “root” account is true god mode. E.g. infamous “rm” as root joke (!) could even affect Windows running WSL2, so MS had to implement special workarounds.

What was ambassador doing with Hezbollah exclusive pager?

It is all about private “dinners”.

First of all you can check distrobox.it which can basically run Neon inside your distribution however you better set a different virtual home for neon in that case.

I would first tar the .steam to be on the safe side but steam is different, it is some kind of Ubuntu stable itself residing in that directory. Not a big time gamer but people laughed at Ubuntu for shipping its snap because of it.

Long story short I don’t think steam would have issues. I meant not to expect KDE guys to revert upgraded preferences back to KDE5 etc. You know they do such things and blame Linux/KDE etc.

A separate /home can save you hours or even days in several occasions however don’t try crazy things like trying to have KDE of Ubuntu share same theme/settings with KDE6. A /var on a fast drive can create wonders too.

It will be there forever since it got stuck as a “offline” button. People go offline for many reasons and they look for a “plane” icon.

Since when did you see/use a diskette or a dot matrix printer? You use their icons.

Unsurprisingly it is the gigantic EA application which breaks Sims 4 most of the times. It crashes, Steam notices non zero exit and gives up.

EA isn’t so managed so they don’t even reach MS to stop pushing alpha/beta updates to stable version of their apps via Winget. So you can guess how much they will care about Linux issues. I mean Steam guys won’t really hack their binaries to fix it so it is up to them.

I think I have read this suggestion at Reddit: "Make people who wants to use API as clients pay. " The app doesn’t have to have API key, user pays a very reasonable money to access Reddit with their favourite application. Obviously it would come with sane for human browsing limits and AI leechers should pay millions.

Just like a plain old radio station where you can access from web page for free but you need to subscribe for better AAC, high quality streams and standard VLC support.

You know the very credible sounding theory that Musk bought Twitter to drown it. He used Middle Eastern funds etc. and those people owning these gigantic funds had nightmares because Twitter made it so easy to organise mass unrest. I want to believe this crazy sounding theory since other option would be someone having such a capital, know how and influence is that dumb.

What if this is just a plot to kill Reddit? While crypto bros polluted it a lot, it was very similar with Twitter. Freedom of speech, diversity. It may have bugged people.

What is the term for people who do buy things on your behalf and get their cut no matter what happens? Market manipulators have such connections.

Obviously these people providing the service are crooks and criminals so they can do anything. It isn’t like you will call the police :-)

Say a negative thing about Brave or any of alt right hate campaigns against anyone who likes diversity. They will keep down voting whatever you post/comment and insane things happen. E.g. 2 comments supporting the same idea in the same post scoring +20 and -20. The best thing to do against is not to be there at the first place. People who think they are highly technical, nerd, bright or have elite taste shouldn’t work for Spez, for free.

Larger market manipulators have every mean to buy the shares, bank accounts at USA etc. I guess they are targeting them to help IPO.

It looks like everyone big in crypto scam and market manipulation have such qualities. Most of them are alt right and Musk fans so it is easy to spot them.

I am not American tax payer but what does American government and independent organisations do regarding influencers are being bribed to help a high profile IPO?

E.g. a user will have 200K+ karma and thousands of followers and will get pre IPO share. So, will “duckyduck” will sure sit on a corner and will never try to benefit his stock? They won’t post to wall street bets? Because of ethics?

I hate to give car example however do you see “legs” on cars/bicycles? Just imagine a running car.

I would say they secretly want to replace infantry however nationalist humans are cheaper to produce.

What they do on several Reddit subs is market manipulation. I really wonder what keeps FED/FTC away from seeing this fact. They are allowing a service serving to market manipulation by criminals to have a IPO. So let’s say your post to wall Street bets is clearly illegal but it serves to Reddit. Will they hurry removing it or even removing the sub? The crypto gangs there are even worse, don’t mess with them. These guys are very well connected in real life, you know guns etc.

Once more we will ignore the elephant in the room which is owned by a advertising giant. Android. Their OEM agreement was designed so bad that it makes you wonder if it does serve a purpose? I can theoretically easily compile the wpa_supplicant on the phone itself however I won’t be able to install/run it. Manufacturer even gave up the brand name itself. Billions of walking zombie devices as the result.

It will become a subscription business with EULA.

It should really replace this petrol powered junk but this is what ultimately happens with such suits in charge. Do you think people will choose better? How many Fairphones or Linux desktops have you seen in real life? They choose slavery.

Speaking of slavery, China does make better cars with great price. I just wonder how many gigabyte per month these cars send to China? So it’s either future Mercedes car with Apple carOS coming with subscription or Chinese spycar. Make your choice.

Or choose community/cycle transport, something better fit to 2024.

With their religious fanatic/fascist leader soon becoming de facto dear leader? There can’t be a progress without secularism. None.
