  • cop: are you carrying anything sir?

    me: no sir, I keep it all PG

    cop: alright, you have a good day now

  • a high quality pocket knife. never leave home without one.

  • i'm tired of seeing this everywhere. this article even fails to call "a new rule" for what it is, namely the VÜPF and VD-ÜPF.

    this is a proposition, and hasn't even been voted on yet. in my country, where we had the possibility of joining the EU three times and still with huge majority said no, voted on not getting extra summer holidays and a bunch of other weird and questionable shit - I can say with near certainty that this will not pass. especially not through the ständerat. we are a business focused country which pay for our intelligence from other nations and simply wouldn't even have the capacity to do anything with all this data.

    itsFOSS once again writing a short and inconclusive article to gain engagement through absolutely shit reporting. used to be a fan of them, but their quality is going down hill fast. they did a shitpiece on ai browsers for Linux which was the last straw for me. know your audience and stop releasing quantity material over good, well written and researched work.

  • been saying it since 2021, the US will fall into a civil war. you have a radicalized right with too many armed militias to count and a liberal left which don't possess the firepower to fight back. add ethnic diversity, vast wealth inequality and political ideologies to it to cast the flame.

  • hate them both equally, don't know whether to take the blue or red corner. regardless, popcorn has been prepared.

  • In summary, Linux is and Operating System that gives you control over your machine - not the other way around coughwindowscough. With that power, however, you can also do a lot more harm to your machine if you don't continuously keep learning and stay curious.

    It's high risk, but high reward (especially as a new user). There's something about learning how your computer works (via Linux) that continues to captivate me after many years of use.

  • Certainly! Here's a concise summary of the article "AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid" by Rich Haridy, published on May 25, 2025:

    • AI tools may reduce critical thinking by doing tasks for us.
    • Relying on AI can lead to "cognitive offloading."
    • This may harm creativity and problem-solving skills.
    • The author shares personal concerns from tech use.
    • Suggests using AI mindfully to avoid mental decline.

    Let me know if there's anything else I can help you with!

  • this appear to however only be a frontend ui and doesn't change anything on the data collection / OS right? still - looks very cool, will definitely check it out.

  • okay, thanks for this - gonna have to do some research

  • do you have to set it up yourself or does it come pre-configured? i ask cause i just got out of setting up my own server and as a non-tech native, it was EXHAUSTING (rewarding, yes - but time intensive).

  • EDIT: for the non-historians among us, this was Ernst Röhm, head of the Nazi Brownshirts (SA), a paramilitary organization used to primarily cause havoc amongst the population and competing political parties, but also in charge of protection details for high ranking NSDAP officials, later replaced by the SS when Hitler had him murdered due to lack of trust.

  • I am ironman

  • makes a lot of sense honestly. I never knew the numbers behind it (tks for sharing). when I was ripping witcher 3 on nobara and then changed my OS back to Windows due to work related issues, I felt a SIGNIFICANT performance drop. the game became laggy, when it used to run top on Linux with the same settings. good share - the time for Linux gaming is now.

  • Poah, ok let's do this:

    • reading a book
    • interacting with your smartphone
    • using the fridge
    • standing in an elevator
    • street signs
    • restaurant menus
    • tapping someone on the shoulder (vertical not horizontal interaction)
    • looking at paintings
    • standing in line
    • observing a statue
    • interacting with your closet
    • looking someone up and down
    • etc, etc, etc

    Just some I could come up with on the fly

  • Yes - but have you been on your smartphone lately? Have you read a book? Looked in the mirror? Interacted with your vertical (hopefully not too horizontal) girlfriend / boyfriend? Sometimes I feel like the human eye is too limited upwards / downwards.

  • doing god's work - thanks!

  • hold up... I thought proton for good left the fediverse, starting with mastadon for the centralized socials?
