    Could be the 2003 Disney movie Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl? Not black & white though.

    It’s spoken by Captain Hector Barbossa (played by Geoffrey Rush) to Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) during a tense moment on the island. The full exchange is:

    Barbossa: "You’re a cruel one, Jack Sparrow. You’ve doomed us all!"Jack Sparrow: "Not all of us."(Elizabeth then shoots Barbossa with a pistol.)Barbossa: "I had to shoot you, darling. It’s nothing personal. You’re just the only person I’ve ever met who is as evil as I am."

    Could be the 1940 pirate film "The Sea Hawk", starring Errol Flynn and Claude Rains.

    In one scene, the villainous Captain Thorpe (played by Claude Rains) says to the protagonist, Geoffrey Thorpe (Errol Flynn), something along the lines of:

    "I had to save you—you're the only man I've ever met who's as big a scoundrel as I am!"

    Another possibility is "Captain Blood" (1935), also starring Errol Flynn and Basil Rathbone, where rival pirates exchange similar banter.

    Other options are:

    • "The Black Swan" (1942) (with Tyrone Power)
    • "The Buccaneer" (1938) (with Fredric March)
  • And now Fusk is entering the arms market. Insider trading anyone?

  • This.

  • RedNote is touted as an alternative.

  • From a terminal window: man update-crypto-policies or just search for an explanation in your browser.

  • Others have provided the answer but if you want to explore system wide crypto policies check out update-crypto-policies

  • Capitalism will cost is costing us the Earth

  • New bugs. Excellent!

  • Wayland support wasn't working with NVIDIA and commenting out the suspend / resume checks (that can disable Wayland) fixed it. This was early - possibly F40 beta so it may not be necessary anymore but everything still works.

     
        
    cp /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/61-gdm.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/61-gdm.rules
    
      

    Comment out the suspend / resume tests in /etc/udev/rules.d/61-gdm.rules. Any issues delete /etc/udev/rules.d/61-gdm.rules.

    Create alias to check if current session is Wayland:

     
        
    alias iswayland='loginctl show-session 2 -p Type | awk -F= '\''{print $2}'\'''
    
      
  • Clicks (bait).

  • To index file paths: GNU locate. It's also quick to create the index with updatedb. To search: locate

    <part of path>

    . Ie: locate artist.flac

  • What's Windoze?

  • Fedora

    Jump
  • Assuming you're on Fedora 40: sudo dnf install dnf5

  • It depends on your priorities, hardware, use cases etc. Honestly it's unlikely to be the determining factor. Available hardware and software support and your attitude to risk are probably more important. Fedora is a cutting edge distro with good reliability and is feature rich. It's upstream of Red Hat Enterprise Linux so has massive support behind it and a large user base. There are multiple spins if you want GNOME or KDE or an immutable OS etc. Adding additional repos such as RPMfusion make adding Nvidia and other proprietary drivers a breeze. As with most things GNU/Linux you need to be prepared to put in the effort to take control of your digital life. It's not easy but well worth it.

  • This is the best summary could come up with: Killing innocent civilians is a legitimate war aim and the UK will sell you the bombs to do it. Because $$$$. Btw where is the envelope stuffed with cash? /s
