  • Andrew hoped to meet Jeffrey Epstein after his prison release, emails reveal

    Jump

  • He's lived a life of people protecting him. Employees listening and nodding along, while being paid to be quiet. He's been groomed to believe himself, and to not be questioned.

    Sadly it seems many political figures still live in this world and don't know how to handle actually being questioned on their actions. Modern Media, cameras, information spread (and the speed of spread) have made the lives of those being protected difficult. Many of those being protected haven't caught up with it.

  • Normally I'd roll my eyes and move on...

    But in this instance I'm going to call service provider protection. It's not the bus companies fault if you take the bus into town to rob the bank. It shouldn't be on my ISP to check if I torrent or not. And it's not on Microsoft what people do with the Azure platform.

    They've provided a service, which people have used to do bad. That doesn't mean the service is bad.

    ... though it is the fediverse and this is Microsoft ... so shit away on it

  • Mid-day should be the middle of the day. Mid-night should be the middle of the night.

    If you like more light in the evening morning go to bed late and wake up late. If you like light in the morning evening, go to bed early and wake up early.

    Stop fucking with the clocks and making nonsensible decisions

  • Any good options for Strava?

    Jump

  • Take a look at runalyze . The analysis features are imo second to none. Once you get over the learning curve

  • Any good options for Strava?

    Jump

  • I don't have a straight answer ... but what about Strava do you like?

    The line you see on Strava (or any fitness tracker) is just a trace (log) of where and when you went. That can be exported into many formats and moved between many different viewers. There is nothing special about Strava's GPS trace.

    Recording that trace can be done with different things, software or devices. Then importing that trace into different places can be done.

    If it's the social features you like, then that would be a different focus and might influence what apps you might want to consider. Komoot is a germany based company that does this really well.

    Fitness tracking? Again, that can be a focus. Runalyze seems to be winning out in this space and is based out of Germany.

    Where are you based? Some apps are more focussed on one country than another.

  • So... Let me check I get this right on the timeline.

    America Europe Ukraine meet, agree to a 30 day ceasefire. Agree this tests if Russia is serious about ending the war. Putin gobbs off, surrender or die.

    Categorical that Russia is not serious about ending the war.

    Next steps boys

  • Something I noticed recently

    The same people who quickly bemoan "everyone wants a label now" seen to be the same people who say "all kids do this like that".

  • Trump fires Black joint chiefs chair Hegseth accused of promoting diversity

    Jump

  • That was my initial thought.

    But also, he was resisting the coup. You can't have Marshall law with military leaders willing to resist you.

    This could well be the point that we (globally) lose the "nobody would be insane enough to allow him to push the button" mindset

  • Why is it so difficult to know if a game is goig to run on your system?

    Jump

  • I guess I don't see the need to os switch on the steam deck. Unless playing and switching is what you want to do.

    If what you want is gnome, there are easier ways than a whole new OS.

  • Steam Deck with the ability to run Fedora workstation (I love Gnome)

    Don't be too focussed on needing to run Fedora for access to Gnome. The OS on the deck (Arch in this case) has the ability to run Gnome. It'll just be getting it working "right" that'll be a pain. I would have thought some people are already on it (even if just for a laugh). A cursory web search says it does work with some odd input issues.

    That is the beauty of (and often the complexity of) the Linux ecosphere. You can change one thing, Fedora to Arch, and the other things "should" still work.

  • Emotionally pressuring you to step back from education.

    There are plenty of people outside looking in, that would call this abuse.

  • Canada euthanasia now accounts for nearly one in 20 deaths

    Jump

  • If self-assisted euthanasia (SAE) has risen from 0% to 20% of all deaths. Then "other" methods of death must have dropped equal to 20%. If that collection of "other", is drawn-out cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's etc. then I see this as working. If those conditions have not seen a comparative reduction, and all we've done is replace suicide with SAE then I think this hasn't worked as intended.
