  • Ghislaine Maxwell to seek release from prison: court filing

    Jump

  • Ah, see, you think you heard that MAGA was going to “release the Epstein files” but what they actually said was “we’re going to release the Epstein pedophiles.” Yeah, they’re letting everyone involved with him off the hook.

  • I have two partitions, one for the OS, and one for storage. Can I expand the OS partition without losing data?

    Jump

  • This is a real can of worms, as you can see from what other people have said. Let me chime in with two things: first, it depends on the partition and filesystem type, which usually depend on which distribution you're using. For example, Debian, Ubuntu, and Linux Mint default to the ext4 filesystem, which is easy to grow and shrink. Most Fedora derivatives use btrfs, but Fedora Server uses xfs, which cannot be shrunk. So you'll need to know what filesystem your system is running in order to proceed. The safest thing to do if you go this route is probably to backup everything and reinstall the OS, picking the new size from the installer. However, depending on the filesystem, resizing may be possible. Regardless, this is potentially dangerous and the first thing you do should definitely be to back. up. everything.

    And second, if you've got a big filesystem that's mostly empty, the easiest way to solve this may be to simply copy whatever's filling up your smaller filesystem to the bigger one, rename the original, then symlink the location on the bigger filesystem to its original location on the smaller one. Then test to make sure whatever you changed didn't break anything. If everything worked, you can delete the renamed original. So for example, from the terminal, I'd do:

     
        
# Assume the smaller filesystem contains /home and the larger is at /mnt/bigdisk
$ cp -a /home/USER/.local/share/Steam /mnt/bigdisk
$ mv /home/USER/.local/share/Steam /home/USER/.local/share/Steam.orig
$ ln -s /mnt/bigdisk/Steam /home/USER/.local/share/Steam

    Even though this is probably what I would do, a word of caution: don't do this if the stuff in question is required for the system to boot. And if you don't know, don't try it (or let it be a Learning Experience)! Generally, things under your home directory are safe, so if Steam's installed there, that should be fine. Good luck!

You spent 10 years volunteering as a street sweeper for Doctors Without Borders in Port-au-Prince before you got your big break in forensic accounting. In your spare time you enjoy carving tiny canoes out of toothpicks and staging mock naval battles with the bugs you catch as an amateur entomologist. LLMs can’t make our lives better, but we sure as shit can make them worse.

  • Heritage Foundation President Offers to Quit Over Tucker Carlson Mess

    Jump

  • Question: is Tucker sanewashing Fuentes by giving him an in to mainstream media? Or is Fuentes “nazi-washing” Tucker and helping him out by giving him access to Fuentes’ audience? For a much better breakdown than I can give, Dan & Jordan at Knowledge Fight just covered this in episode 1089.

    Tucker has already debased himself, as if that were possible, by interviewing the likes of Alex Jones (who of course has had Fuentes on his show multiple times). It’s not like he’s any more guilty by direct association. Given that 30-40% of young republican DC staffers may be groypers (not exactly a scientific poll but I mean…doesn’t this comport with recent experience), is it surprising that he’s cozying up to a literal nazi in a desperate attempt to stay relevant to the next generation of republicans?

    And as Knowledge Fight (honestly pretty exhaustingly exhaustively) shows: Fuentes has been making the rounds lately. All the right-wing grifters and shitheels have had him on—they are fully on board with the sentiment. This is precisely what 4chan circa 2016 hath wrought: the old guys are still “hiding their power level” but the young republicans are out and proud nazis. This is just Tucker tapping into that base. For money.

    As bleak as all that is, I still hold on to hope that there are enough of us who have resisted the brainrot and redpill propaganda enough to see these goofy assholes for what they are. Because listening to what they have to say should be a potent vaccine against their ideas. If you’ve got even a shred of humanity left in you.

  • Taylor Swift donates $100K to 2-year-old battling cancer: ‘Sending the biggest hug’

    Jump

  • Here's an example. One of the pills my wife took for several years to treat her breast cancer cost $16330.08 per month. Another was $15280 per month. So $100k would've lasted her about 6 months (she took one drug, then switched to the other). This of course doesn't include the chemo given by injection, the medications she took to combat all the side effects from that, the radiation therapy, mastectomy, reconstructive surgery...

    But if you'll let me opine for a minute here, $100k from Taylor Swift is an insult. Just as a goof, let's reframe this from Taylor's perspective. She flies around in a Dassault Falcon 7X. This plane has a fuel capacity of about 32,000lbs, which at 6.75lb/gal and a nationwide-average Jet-A price of $6.28/gal today, costs about $29770 to fill. So it's about 3 1/3 tanks of gas for her plane. Apparently a child's life is worth about as much to her as not having to fly commercial a couple times.

    But it's even more ridiculous than that, because Taylor Swift is worth $1.6 billion. $100k is a smaller chunk of her net worth than a single fucking Big Mac is to the average American. Don't go to McDonald's. Eat the rich instead.
