Jackass says most war mongering ignoring the actual country invading another.

Typical.

This is why the dark ages line is only half true. Paying for what you consume is normal anywhere else. Bringing that back to the internet would be a good thing IMO.

Ahh, good point. I have only been “testing” matrix for a year and haven’t enabled sliding sync so haven’t bothered using element x yet.

Well then theyre right- one day it might get done. 😄

Tbf, they actually are. Element X and the sliding sync are ready I think. If the server and client both use it, I think you can use it today. Or maybe the whole matrix 2.0 where that’s all integrated isn’t pushed into main/master yet. Im any case, I read it was ready maybe a few weeks ago.

I distinctly remember yum/dnf should be using a loop. Forget why but it’s recommended. Here’s a snippet from my playbook. Simply make the vars as you need and run.

  - name: Install flathub as remote
    ansible.builtin.shell:
      cmd: flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
    tags:
      - apps

  - name: Install flatpak apps
    community.general.flatpak:
      name: "{{ item }}"
      state: present
    loop: "{{ flatpaks }}"
    tags:
      - apps

  - name: Remove some default unused packages
    ansible.builtin.dnf:
      name: "{{ item }}"
      state: absent
      update_cache: no
    loop: "{{ remove }}"
    ignore_errors: true
    tags:
      - apps

  - name: Install our packages
    ansible.builtin.dnf:
      name: "{{ item }}"
      state: present
      update_cache: yes
    loop: "{{ rpms }}"
    ignore_errors: true
    tags:
      - apps```

On mobile. Apologies if formatting is off.

Pita= pain in the ass

I sub to a few mobile Linux feeds and I want but don’t at all think mobile Linux is ready, even for tech devotees. Too battery hungry, not enough ease of use, missing functions, etc. And that’s not including lack of apps.

Sailfish gets closest so far I think. But yes, not ready. Ubuntu touch last time I tried is fine but still a bit out of sorts.

Mesh central works well.

Yes it’s so outdated that mostly every IDE offers usage with its keybindings.

Yeah, Java slogan was code once, run everywhere for a reason.

Oof, BMP. I remember those days…

As someone who was around for the sysvinit to systemdd change, I’ll take the latter every single day and twice on Sunday.

Terrible topic but systemd itself is a godsend IMO, warts and all.

Because I’m at a fast food place in the first place because my time is important and I don’t want to waste it ordering.

That and the guy taking orders does it 1000x a day and i can easily order that way instead of me navigating ten different menus just to order a simple meal for my family.

I’m OK with my old man status at this point. Tech is good when it improves things for the consumer. The kiosks seem to just improve the company bottom line IMO.

Online json parser. Throw in some data and then structure a query.

It’ll keep updating the results as you tweak your query. A simple search will probably give you twenty that’ll work. I can’t remember what i normally use off the top of my head.

Getting all the states to agree to this seems unlikely and I believe it needs to be unanimous, right?

I would love if lawsuits brought the shit that is ai down. It has a few uses to be sure but overall it’s crap for 90+% of what it’s used for.

That’s a good take but I gotta say- kids are kids. They WILL slack off, they will goof off, they will use the phones for other things. This isn’t a critique- it’s what kids do.

If they need tools then a couple ipads or similar can be used. I don’t find the argument “they need to exist with smartphones in society” convincing for school. At work you know you’ll be fired if you’re caught using your phone too much, etc. and slacking off. Kids aren’t under the same pressure as that and quite frankly I wouldn’t expect them to act with that level of maturity as even some adults don’t and they’re older and should be wiser.

As for the problem of just existing with them? I feel like that is yet another thing that school won’t solve. That is up to their parents, etc. Good habits start at home. Expecting schools to solve all problems (especially ones so entrenched like socioeconomic conditions, poverty, etc.) is half of why we’re here in the first place. But guess what? If the kid is given a tablet or allowed to use a cell phone at the table and basically whenever/wherever they want, do you think their behavior will be different in school? Do you think it’s up to the school to be forcing this? That is yet another ridiculous burden I think we’d put on teachers and staff.

Moreover, don’t you think we should be conditioning these kids that it’s ok to exist without a phone?

These kids won’t be worse off without phones. Like you said- the rest of us did just fine without them. Let them have a calculator and computers in computer class and call it a day.

Seems odd. They’ve been pushing login.gov like everywhere.
