Finally.

Good.

Yep. Godot and Blender I think

Reopening the government without ACA subsidies literally kills people when they can’t afford their new premiums. There are people for whom affordable access to healthcare is the difference between life-saving medication and, well, the lack of that.

Starvation of people on SNAP is also literally the GOP’s stated goal. If Dems fund the government and let those people who need healthcare die, the GOP isn’t going to play nice and keep funding SNAP. They’re gonna gut it like they’ve always dreamt of doing anyway. They already signaled this with the BBB.

I know this is a tiny percentage overall, but it’s a very substantial boost to the Linux percent, perhaps correlating with Win10 losing free security updates, and a minority of savvy gamers swapping to Linux. (Myself included, so obviously bias to my statement)

Okay that’s what was happening… yay

So you admit you can block IPv6 traffic in your rebuke to IPv6 adoption. What’s then the issue? Block what you want, it’s your network, but do it with a firewall and not NAT.

Sure, nature took its course, but did NATs make things better? I’m a game dev and getting two computers to talk to each other is so so much harder due to NAT traversal, requiring punchthrough servers. Voice chat and stuff need STUN/TURN servers. A game has to account for “what if my host wants to connect two clients, one of which within the NAT and one without?”

Makes far more sense to give every device an address and just talk to it and leave security and port openness up to firewalls.

IPv4 is definitely a large part of the blame for this and we need to start resting the blame there in hopes we force these companies (and their users) to actually use it. We need ISPs to support it, of course for end users, but at the enterprise level everything should be IPv6. It should have been IPv6 a decade ago, or more.

My thoughts reading this, considering most “political” violence came from right-wing extremists was “oh yeah of course the violence is down, they’re either now part of the government doing the violence or are finally feeling content that the government matches their extreme views.”

The arch wiki is shockingly detailed at times. I’m very impressed.

Hi hello, this is partly me. My bad. I’m not moving to Win11 (by force and by choice) so I installed Arch just to start to get the hang of things and, well, now I’m just daily driving it.

I’ve run distributions in the distant past and toyed with recent ones. I think this one is staying though.

Feels good that when my computer is idle, it’s not busy spouting off telemetry to some server somewhere. I can customize way more than before, and with Proton, I can still play the games I want to.

The Department of Homeland Security asked Naval Station Great Lakes for “limited support in the form of facilities, infrastructure, and other logistical needs to support DHS operations,”

Much as it pains me to say it, this is an on-the-books legal order so long as no active duty member of the military directly interacts with any arrested persons. Sharing of facilities and equipment is generally allowed and the only persons who can make rules to change this are the Secretary of Defense directly or Congress indirectly, and probably the President as well, perhaps by executive order nowadays.

I use gitea for my personal projects, though if you’re not already using it, forgejo (a fork) may be better (I don’t know).

Apparently not canceled

Feels like a lot of “not inventing the wheel” - which is good? There are plenty of good wheels out there.

Yep. “lol”

Possible, but I think that particular feature is more aimed at EU electrical prices.

Fix would be government regulation.

Alternatives are sending cash by mail, accepting bank ACH, and of course, cryptocurrency.
