It’s the first rolling distro I have tried, and I’ve been running it for about 3 years now without any real problems. I think maybe twice there have been updates that cause issues, out of hundreds of updates per week. It’s surprisingly solid, and everything’s up to date.

Not everyone would want hundreds of updates per week of course, but it’s up to the user to decide how often to install updates. Unlike Windows, the updates don’t intrude, and they are fast.

OpenSUSE Tumbleweed helps because you can create a btrfs snapshot at any moment and then roll back to it if you get in trouble. And it does this automatically whenever you update the packages.

That’s unfair. It’s Windows NT with code piled on top. Also, Linux Mint may be an easier transition for Windows users.

Its running Windows. Once the corporations have taken their cut, there are 5.1 calculations left for the user.

I agree, so I edited the comment.

“Look what you made me do!” - the mantra of right-wing assholes and abusers everywhere.

We need an open-source printer project. But apparently it’s very difficult to do.

I’m using a Brother laser with third-party cartridges, and everything still works after the recent firmware update. So I’m inclined to believe them.

Apart from the privacy issues, I guess the challenge would be how you preserve the signature through ordinary editing. You could embed the unedited, signed photo into the edited one, but you’d need new formats and it would make the files huge. Or maybe you could deposit the original to some public and unalterable storage using something like a blockchain, but it would bring large storage and processing requirements. Or you could have the editing software apply a digital signature to track the provenance of an edit, but then anyone could make a signed edit and it wouldn’t prove anything about the veracity of the photo’s content.

In small things. Probably not very feasible for hobby projects unless you can get it soldered on when the PCB is built.

So, models may only be trained on sufficiently bigoted data sets?

allying with Russia

Russia is as untrustworthy as Trump. Alliance with Russia promises nothing good.

Move fast and kill people. How brave of him.

That’s because he and his kind believe government is useless and can just be broken without losing anything important. From their point of view, government is just a thing that takes money from them and spends it on people who don’t deserve to live because they’re not asshole billionaire techbros. And it makes poor people’s lives slightly less unpleasant by giving them money and services, which billionaires don’t like because it makes the poor less desperate and exploitable.

If they intercept someone trying to enter at a land border and they don’t want them in the USA, why don’t they just turn them around? Why do they imprison them for months at the US taxpayer’s expense?

Vivaldi is a very good browser, but if you want to support open web standards it would be better to use a non-Chromium-based browser like one of the Firefox derivatives. Also Vivaldi is closed source. Still, I do like Vivaldi.

He can, however, be easily manipulated by people who can.

If only there were unity among the people. The problem is that half of the US population is convinced the crooked tyrants are the ones protecting them from corruption and tyranny.

It’s more extreme this time. They didn’t start with Nazi salutes on day 1 in Trump’s previous term.

the speaker of the House praised the president for his peacemaking efforts but said Putin was an “old school communist” and aggressor in the war with Ukraine.

So don’t get your hopes up that he has seen the light. He’s a Republican so hopelessly confused about what Trump is, what Putin is, and what a communist is.
