Je suis un neuneu du fond et j’approuve ce message :)

It’s definitely happening. Hurting the vulnerable harder than usual seems to be one of the many perks of hosting olympics games along extra pollution, extra corruption… /s

Please stop calling Macron’s party centrist. It’s right wing and has always been, regardless of what they pretend.

Maybe I didn’t get my facts straight, but iirc there are around 7.5k satellites up there, with starlink current count about 5.5k. And I think I read they got the greenlight for the 7.5k gen 2 sats launches.
That looks like a scale change to me. Associated with the short lifespan (which contrasts with the situation 30 years ago, where launches were more expensive), it’s kind of a new situation and should have warranted a more careful approach.

So musk isn’t the first one to launch satellites, I agree. But the way it’s done is kinda new, and mostly on the worse side. And I’m not saying the old way was good, and not absolving previous actors from responsability in the pollution.

Like maybe wait a few years and finance some science to check that your mega constellation of satellites (built to fail after only a few years to make sure your rocket company never goes out of work) won’t be a fucking nuisance on so many levels before you actually launch them ?
This “get all the facts before taking action” ?

Edit: I think I knee-jerked

That’s true, and it’s a subset of another reality: execs are ruining life.

Yep. I despise her opinions since I’ve heard/read them, but reading HP still is a treasured child memory and I pick them up again every few years. But I’m never buying anything that contributes to her wealth and I’m not going to rate the books positevely on goodreads or whatever.
I surely makes no difference to her, but it allows me to feel okay about it.

Thanks a lot for this detailed, understandable and kind answer :)

The article talks about sudo and doas being SUID binaries and having a larger attack surface than run0 would. Could someone ELI5 what this means?

Not in rating though, I didn’t know they fell so low - 18% !

Here’s the thing: doing something does not always work, but doing nothing never does.
In the provided screenshot, the devs themselves explain that asking for refunds and leaving bad reviews is what gives them enough pull to even have the discussion with sony.

Of course you don’t have to do anything, but you really don’t accomplish anything by bothering the people who actually try to find ways to make the situation better.

Seriously, you’re still on that hill?
They hurt no one with their comment licensing, why do you feel the need to bother them and add to the harassment while adding nothing to the original discussion ?

Really great answer. Kudos for taking the time and energy to write it !

There is no national ID in the UK

This is so wild.

What do you need a charger for? We’ll all be dead long before the battery is done /j

Oh thanks for the correction, I was mistaken. I’m happy I was wrong :)

About anticheat: it depends which games you’re playing. If they use Valve’s EasyAnti Cheat you should have no problem (been playing dota2, cs2, csgo… without trouble for some time now). If they use malware kernel-level anticheat (iirc helldivers 2, valorant, league of legends) you won’t be able to run them in linux and should keep a windows dual boot.

CS2 linux version has some issues. Sometimes forcing steam to install the windows version and to run it via proton makes things better.

how am I supposed to say to people ‘hey come and try out lemmy’ when they’re gong to see this sovcit Facebook mom stuff?

They’re going to read comments shilling for corpos, excusing China/Russia/Israel’s human rights violations… and a link towards an open source license at the end of someone’s comments is what you’re worried about?

And what’s the point of your comment, apart for trying to spark a controversy out of nowhere?
