I recently learned theirs a term for people who argue we have free will and predestination https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compatibilism . It's mostly a Calvinist belief?. IMO its kinda dumb but interesting nonetheless
Its funny since lots of revolutions only really succeeded due to another state actor involved. Imagine being against the Haitian revolution because you think its just some psyop by the Americans to harm the French
edit: To clarify I don't know if the Haitians NEEDED the US, but the US did help
At Mercedes-Benz, we are confident enough to know that we have some of the best and most brilliant engineers in the field, and at the same time, we are always curious and keen to learn from everyone out there. So please forgive us if we don’t always get everything right with regard to Open Source from the start. As a company whose core business has not traditionally been software development, we still have a lot to learn, in particular from those of you who have already been walking this path before
This just feels weird for a company to officially state? Maybe im just too use to tech company/startup speak where AGI is literally 2 days away
The "Everything America supports" is bad virus, many such cases. I think Foucoult wrote a bunch of papers in support of the Iran regime when they got rid of the Western backed government (Not to say I support that government). Did not age well..
Pretty much all the distros I use if I install like kde or hyprland it appears as an option in the login screen. Its a little cluttered since you have overlapping gnome and kde apps but I feel like people distrohop alot when they could just install a new DE
Arch is harder so install to as a recommendation its harder than the others. Though I think the last time I installed it was years ago ik theirs like a graphical installer now??? How the mighty have fallen
ICE just needs some more supplements, then they will stop committing crimes. Actually when is ICE gonna start sponsoring shit, lucrative business idea here
Just please make a CBDC, you can integrate whatever debt trap, buy now pay later, bs you want with it idc at this point. VISA should not be collecting 2% on all our transactions in 2026. Parasite on the economy.
edit: lol we can essentially nationalize the CC/BNPL debt industry and use the interest gained to then pay off the national debt.
Upper management in my company constantly asks for instances of AI being used. People who align with this whole AI mess get much easier promotion timelines and visibility. My team has decided to realign ourselves to do more ML work partially for this reason. Its even dumber when you realize all these tech execs are themselves invested in these AI companies
It's definitely annoying how we have all these wrappers of wrappers of debian, like Linux mint is wrapping packages from Ubuntu which is then wrapping packages from a certain snapshot of Debian. All of which creates a unique set of dependencies an apps running on that can cause bugs (Though sometime the distro is more like a installation wrapper for another distro which is better).
Why would you want flatpak on a server, server feels like ideal for dynamic dependencies as you have some highly used, static build (Debian 13 or Ubuntu LTS) where problems can be easily tested and fixes distributed out. The dependencies don't change too much aswell as the usecase for the server stays static. Security features can then be patched in when needed. Desktop usecase all people want is an up to date latest app that works, security rarely matters, and the dependency graph is highly volatile as people constantly update and add new software
