Here’s how to fix this[+]
Create $HOME/.config/user-dirs.dirs with
XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR=“$HOME/downloads”
You may need to logout/in for things to reread this file.
The full list of keys is:
+: Since this is Linux, this is a fix for many but not all cases.
I like “heat pump”. It’s a very nice ELI5 name. It’s a pump for heat. A water pump takes water and forces it to where it wouldn’t go naturally. A heat pump does the same.
I’m obviously a fan of LE but a simple self-hosted option with a custom CA would be great for local machines:
But you’re not researching, hiring, and scheduling a contractor to fix it. You don’t need to become an expert in long term planning and anticipate problems. You’re not mentally cataloging basic maintenance tasks like when you last painted the siding or mowed the lawn.
Home ownership vs renting goes beyond equity and I know a lot of people who were happy renting because it gave them a huge chunk of free time back for trips, hobbies, etc.
No one seems to mention license considerations when talking about static linking. Even if your app is open source, your particular license may not be legally compatible with the GPL, for example. 3BSD, MIT, and Apache most likely don’t change in a single binary but it’s kind of a new thing that no one was really thinking of before when mixing licenses together.
I think this default okay assumption comes from most developers having a cloud-centric view where there’s technically no “distribution” to trigger copyright.
It’s a modern take on the Pidgin concept. Pidgin ran locally on one computer and didn’t sync anything between any of your other Pidgin installs. Also, your login details for every account were usually in plaintext on disk. In practice, it feels
Beeper (really Matrix + bridges) is a network service that you can access with a browser, mobile app, whatever.
Same. I forget how long I’ve had it (primary domain even) and I just got the email today.
No, you’re not helping. At all. It’s flamebait that can only derail the topic and turn into a circle jerk or verbal fistfight.
Here’s an example that may help: Why is China allowed to participate in the Olympics despite their genocides and brutal crackdowns? Why the double standard?
It’s particularly upsetting because lemmy.ml is a major instance. IMO, moderation in this c/ is infrequent and underwhelming. I don’t mean to hang the mods out to dry; it would take a big team to wade through this effluent and tame the trolls. The hostile “Here comes the Reddit refugees” and “OMG Tankie brigade” shit is just the easy stuff. A rule on lazy whataboutism would help the signal/noise ratio as well. This post is from RT, about Ukraine/Russia/Belarus but the biggest thread in here is rehashing the Iraq occupation. Can we just discuss the original topic? Is that so hard?
If you compare the sum of all Western countries together then China loses on both total and per capital so I don’t see what your point is. Per your own numbers above, even.
Wind power per capita would put China far lower than the west.
Isn’t Apple restricting their part of that to EU citizens?
Google Voice is not available in my country. Plus, it’s Google.
Also, Google Voice takes my top pick for the next round of Google product executions. It receives no updates: no RCS, no fake iMessage support (parsing the Liked "prev message" stuff), and it’s buggy as shit.
I’d gladly even pay for GVoice if it meant it got a renovation and it was going to outlast Google’s attention span. Telephony is something I just don’t want to self-host because there’s no way telecom companies will make it easy.
You’re making a generalized argument to support terrorism.
I agree and you’re forgetting old people. A lot of them have straight up told me, “I’ll be dead when the worst hits, so why should I care?” People need more cynicism for human behavior; it’s not entirely cartels and conspiracies.
Cisco owned the “iPhone” trademark and was actively using it to sell products. Weirder things have happened.
Apple simply started using it and told Cisco, “Make me stop”.
Let me return the appreciation for a thoughtful response! Unfortunately I don’t have an equal abundance of time (nor fast typing skills). Where’s the outcry for the parent class?
Those cube dwellers (labor) are often better compensated and lead more secure, comfortable lives than small business owners (ownership). If you instead frame the problem as income inequality rather than straight up Marxism, I think you’re still naturally led to the tax reforms you’re describing. However, I don’t view that as “anti-capitalist”. It’s restoring guardrails that shouldn’t have been removed under Reagan.
No, a large portion of the damage done was so regular people could keep driving their oversized cars, eat out of season food, and cheaply heat their homes. Socialism does not require good environmental policy. Capitalism does not prohibit it. Climate change is a human problem.
It’s really not that hard to start a small business. There’s no grand shadowy conspiracy against your idea. If it was a superior method, it would see more widespread success. Bluntly forcing one business structure and removing freedoms when there are far less drastic tools is a big ask.
That’s the part I really don’t get. If you’re cis male looking for a job, do you really think crashing this event is going to reflect favorably on you and that you’d be more likely to land a job? People are going to look at you and think that you have good judgment and won’t be a problem at all? What the heck is the thought process that makes this a good plan?
