You also need to think about the space required for these solar farms. I can tell you that I’ve seen some barby forests and animals living there completely wiped out for building solar farms.

When the intent is making money, there are no clean energies…

Did you disable fastboot in windows to make sure this doesn’t happen again?

Filesystems may be remounted read only on error. I’d expect that to be reverted post reboot, but maybe your error was big enough for it not to? You may want to search how to perform an fsck on the affected partitions.

Just in time!

Preparing for GTK 5

(Trying to be funny here, don’t downvote too much!)

I found this gitlab issue two days ago after I noticed that the video camera was always on in powertop. The workaround appeared to work for me and the reduction in power consumption was noticeable, but Cheese wasn’t able to find a camera afterwards. Didn’t test other software.

Now, if I could just find a way of reducing the screen consumption…

Did you ever think about how there is an average penis size measurement?

And the companies are controlled by venture capitalists, who are smart and distribute their investments. So they have interests in various companies, including the real estate companies.

Let them be! I deserve a chuckle every now and then :)

I think that logic is employing the “best of two evils” ideology again. People should vote on the person that better represents them and person C is the one that represents most people. Voting against people they dislike is not the basis of democracy!

Warning: conspiracy theory incoming. Imagine you are an investor, one of those big guns that are on top of a few big companies. You have a lot of money, but because you’re smart you don’t invest it all in tech companies. Some of it goes to, let’s say, real estate. Now imagine what would happen to that money if companies no longer needed offices, those huge and expensive offices… Also, you invest in an overseas company. There’s lots of profit there because you pay cheap to your employees. Now those employees can start working directly to US companies for cheaper than in US, but still more than is paid in that country. Now if want people working for you, then you need to pay more than these remote workers receive. There goes your extra profit And the way this happened really shows that companies were really hoping to change the way of working after COVID, but someone didn’t allow that.

So many years winning, just to lose today… Well played, sir!

We need an AI with all human knowledge, or various with different specializations. But those AIs must not be in the hands of companies.

Almost 20 years ago I decided that I would check out the famous emacs and vim editors to then choose one. Never got to try emacs… Thanks Bram! You will never be forgotten.

Had those problems in liftoff until I removed and re added my account.

Connect is a bit better and more stable in my experience, but I’m staying with liftoff due to it being open source. But I miss its continuous vertical bars in the comments. And I miss the per-page scroll and folded comments by default of RiF!

Need help too. What’s up with all these beans posts? I’m out of the loop :(
