They’re talking about packages you install, not the ISOs.

While contributing is great, the BSDs are kinda dying and it’s probably better to spend that effort elsewhere. Even TrueNAS is leaving the BSD space. The fact that most applications are shipping via docker/Flatpak/snap etc. and that BSD does not have a good solution for those does not bode well for BSD.

There just really isn’t that much development for BSD anymore. Everyone who wasn’t on Linux is moving over to it.

How does that work when all of the production happens in other countries now? Is there some scenario where we have a socialist white collar economy? All the rhetoric surrounding Communism fits a blue collar economy where production is still the key driver of the economy. Most “1st world” economies these days are service economies not production economies. Is there some literature on how Communism fits in with a service economy?

I’m assuming they’re North American.

How does this work with local laws regarding 2 party recording? If you’re on a video call and this records the other party without their permission, that is AFAIU illegal in many states in the US. I’m sure in parts of Europe as well.

Lol wut, they never claimed servers were independently controlled. Maybe you just didn’t look into what you were signing up for.

When you go use different servers on Minecraft realms are you under any impression those are not controlled by Microsoft?

When you choose a different server on World of Warcraft do you think it’s a non-blizzard server?..

Like just because you put yourself into a state of bad false assumptions didn’t mean they tried to trick you. People have been saying this about discord from the beginning you just never cared to look.

Did you actually think this or are you just inventing a person in your mind that this has happened to? Lol

If you wanna help your case stop referring to women as “females”. It makes them sound like objects.

Future harm is unavoidable. There is worse future harm avoidable. It’s really not that hard of a concept.

Shit is already gonna be bad, but we can prevent it from becoming really bad.

And how much did it save by hiring the minors? Cost of doing business…

All the article says about their parents is:

Stan’s 84-year-old parents, Don and Shirley Ledgerwood, have watched oil companies drill multiple wells on their farm, where the family had grown crops and run cattle. The family received small royalty payments from the oil production.

Which still does not say that their parents let them. They received the royalty payments I’m assuming because the law about mineral rights requires the drillers to pay the land owners.

Nowhere in this article does it say they ever gave them permission. From what I understand their parents did not sell the mineral rights.

Can you please cite where it says or implies otherwise?

Did you even read the article? Due to the way Oklahoma law works the family owns the land and farm, but the oil companies have the “mineral rights” underneath which obligates the family to let them drill even after they tried in the courts to stop it.

Oklahoma law allows the oil companies to drill an unlimited number of wells on only a $25,000 bond. So they just don’t clean up the wells and let the state have the bond because it’s cheaper.

The problem is the state, not the family. Nowhere does it mention the family selling their rights to the minerals underneath or anything like that.

I fail to see how the family is supporting the oil industry.

On the flip side, if the genders were changed in this situation and the guy only wanted the woman because of superficial reasons like she was attractive or popular, how many people would be saying “he got what he deserves”

This is definitely one of those double standard situations. While we shouldn’t be victim blaming, I think there’s something to be said for calling out people who are willing to throw away an existing relationship or form a new relationship just because an “influencer” came up to them and they thought they were rich. And I think that’s what the poster you are responding to was getting at.

Yup, I’m cautiously optimistically waiting for it haha.

Arch with Plasma

Would be cool if the server wasn’t proprietary and closed source. Until I can look through the source code of the server I’ll stick to Signal who has open sourced everything and a very well security reviewed implementation.

The tdrop program that let’s you interact with any terminal as if it were a dropdown terminal doesn’t work in Wayland, and it just isn’t the same to open a terminal in the normal way, is lame. Foot is a good terminal for sure but I want the dropdown effect.

It’s its own terminal but I find it to be pretty good and it works with Wayland.

Did you have electron/chrome applications flicker? I’ve been dealing with that since switching to Nvidia (I didn’t want to but Plex only supports GPU encoding on Linux with Nvidia).

It’s a different type of plastic, AFAIK it’s like a spray on polymer for the aluminum cans; But I think the biggest factor is probably UV degradation of the ingredients in the soda with the clear plastic bottles.
