  • Either by saying it’s the West’s fault that Pakistan is now bombing Afghanistan because they retreated and the Taliban took power.

    Yes but what im asking is why does the west get blamed for Pakistan bombing Afghanistan when:

    1. Pakistan bombs Afghanistan.
    2. They do this because the Pakistani Taliban attacks them.
    3. They can do this because the Taliban supports them
    4. The Taliban can support them because they are in power
    5. The Taliban is in power because the West lost the war.

    We are 5 steps away before we reach the West, yet the West is blamed.

    Saying the west "gave" back power to the Taliban is saying like Ukraine gave back Crimea to the Russians.

    If you truly want to say the west gave power to the Taliban we would need to go further back.

    1. Pakistan bombs Afghanistan.
    2. They do this because the Pakistani Taliban attacks them.
    3. They can do this because the Taliban supports them
    4. The Taliban can support them because they are in power
    5. The Taliban is in power because the West lost the war.
    6. The west invaded Afghanistan because of Osama Bin Laden
    7. Osama Bin Laden was in Afghanistan because the Taliban gave him safe refuge
    8. The Taliban could give him safe refuge because they were in power
    9. The Taliban were in power because the DRA collapsed.
    10. The DRA Collapsed because the Soviets Withdrew support.
    11. The Soviets withdrew support because the Mujahideen was too strong
    12. The Mujahideen was strong because the West supported them.

    That's 12 steps away before the West causing this. outside of 5, were the West lost the war if you want to blame them for that.

    If any of these things acted different this wouldn't have happend.

    Why is it only the West that is mentioned?

  • I'm as much against the US as the next guy but how is it the west's fault that Pakistan is now bombing Afghanistan?

    • The Pakistani Airforce dropping the bombs.
    • The Pakistani Taliban attacking Pakistan.
    • The Taliban allowing the Pakistani Taliban to operate.

    You need to go many layers down before it starts being the West's fault.

    Either by saying it's the West's fault that Pakistan is now bombing Afghanistan because they retreated and the Taliban took power.

    Or by saying it's the West's fault that Pakistan is now bombing Afghanistan because they supported the Mujahideen which eventually led to the collapse of the DRA and the Taliban took power.

    Sure there is responsibility, but there are many actors that have way more direct responsibility over this current event before we reach the West.

  • any tips?

    My laptop has this option in the bios settings

    Not sure if it's only for laptops but you could check there.

  • I'm running wayland with nvidia-open and nvidia-utils packages, and have never encountered any driver issues in both graphics and compute.

  • Let them cook

  • I switched from github to forgejo and that was really easy, they have an migrate button.

  • And i officially ended my subscription a long time ago

  • I currently have a PinePhonePro and I'm happy that its the real linux experience in phone form factor, I've tried searching but couldn't find a conclusive awnser.

    Is sailfish linux in the sense that i can just change compile target and any linux program will work like on the PPP or is it "linux" in the sense that android is linux?

  • I think everyone has once thought of the idea of taking an sbc and a touchscreen and making a linux phone, cool to actually see one!

  • It's almost like client side anti cheat doesn't work and if proper server side anti cheat is made it wouldn't matter what platform the client is on.

  • Dirth rates are overrated anyway

  • Forget that the real evil is that the first character of Int or Ganz in this case is capitalized

  • Why does it matter what is replaced?

    I would say if it frees up a human from having to do it that it's good news.

  • "must benefit everyone, not just a handful of billionaires"

    It's hard to disagree with that statement but all this upheaval about "killing jobs" seems really pointless to me.

    A manual farm has far more employees then one that uses modern machinery, is the economy in decline if the farmer replaces human labor with machines?

  • The hoodied master hacker hacking the mainframe using HTML...

    I really doubt the authenticity of reporting if they use such "tech looking" images

  • Good stuff, Ukraine has proven again that having a nuclear arsenal is really the only way to ensure a country's security when faced wirh a hostile nuclear armed neighbor.

  • Yeah I tried taking a screenshot first but as you can see the screenshot doesn't include the panel.

    This is a PinePhonePro, the experience is surprisingly usable except for one major thing, the battery life is terrible.

    Wether that is specific to the PPP, PostmarketOS or if my phone is defective but after like an hour of use the battery is already drained and even in standby the battery won't last more then 6 hours or so.

    There are some minor things here and there but that is the main reason i can't use it as a daily driver.

  • Fun thing about linux phones is that they can all look different without vendor lock in

    (Yes i aplogize for the scuffed picture put pressing the screenshot button closes the menu)

  • Haven't used shotcut or openshot but can recommend kdenlive, it has alot of features but I find it a bit clunky sometimes to work with.

    For me when I was working on a large project it crashed once and the autorecover worked, although I still manually save since I'm paranoid.

  • Ive always wondered how it is ever planned to enforce it, is a police team going to bust down my door:

    PUT THE UNBACKDOORED LIBSSL DOWN!

    Sure companies like meta will comply instantly but everyone that doesn't use big tech (including criminals) can just continue doing whatever? Why would criminals the one the law claims to stop use backdoored clients?
