Why do you say Ubuntu is South African, Canonical itself is a British company and I can’t find why reference to how Ubuntu originated?

But surely this petition with nearly 400 signatures will convince them there’s a business case for supporting Linux!

What about it is horrible? All the data is well presented?

The only way for Labour to govern under first past the post is to appeal to the center.

Unfortunately our country is disgustingly conservative and the right wing have always been far better organised, it probably helps they have the media on side.

Starmer is actually doing a surprisingly ok job. The austerity he’s pushing is tedious as fuck but if he weren’t keeping an eye on economics we’d be drowning in hysteria about “magic money trees” and labour dragging the country in to debt.

The employment rights bill will be an incredible improvement for working people. I wish it went a lot further but it’s a solid start.

Unless labour support electoral reform we are doomed to an eternity of right wing government. Labour only got into power last year because reform split the vote, and very soon the reform and conservatives will merge together again.

Lemmy is fairly small compared to other social media sites so instead of restricting yourself to a handful of communities I’d recommend browsing the “all” feed and just seeing everything.

Keep an eye on the instance each community is hosted on as there’s often a social or political bias.

You can then block communities and instances that you aren’t interested in or would rather not see.

It’s absolutely intentional. They’ve chosen to publicly terrorise this one person so that all minorities fear the government.

They’re also sending out letters to any minority they can basically saying “leave now or you’re next”. It’s a vile tactic but the right wing base are absolutely loving the cruelty.

It’s a good concept but it does feel like a forced gimmick a. I would really prefer some regularity in the pieces possibly that’s just a quirk of neurodivergence.

That should be a rule everywhere. Unsourced material is incredibly tedious.

You are completely correct. There are so many exits before becoming a billionaire that any normal person would take.

Once you have millions you can live comfortable. Tens of millions and you’re set for life, you can live in luxury without ever doing another day’s work.

Hundreds of millions and you can buy anything you ever want or need. The only reason to continue accumulating money is because you get some fucked up pleasure from it.

You can claim you “earned it” through “working hard” but it’s a pathetic assertion. The simple fact is money is only gained at the expense of others.

Yep, I use libre office and despise the archaic file based menus. I had no idea there was a ribbon based alternative.

Exactly as you described I probably dismissed any tedious popups that blocked me from diving straight into the program.

Can anyone summarise the new ending?

This sums up my opinion of the new Assassins Creed. It’s a beautiful world but half the time I can’t actually see anything because I’m either blinded by sunlight or shaded by darkness.

Money also gives you access to resources to help you recover quickly and effectively.

Money also brings positive attention.

In another universe Musk is just a lonely incel. But as a billionaire there’s an endless line of celebrities, gold diggers, porn stars, prostitutes etc lining up to please his every whim.

Yep, I’m with you. Project Bluefin is exactly what I want from an OS. My previous Linux experiences had all been awful UX, having to diagnose obscure issues and copy pasting decipherable terminal commands. Until Bluefin, nothing ever worked straight out of the box.

Bluefin’s main issue right now is a lack of good documentation. Like you, I’ve tried to get devcontainers working and they just don’t.

As others have said, not with Linux Mint.

However if you were running an atomic distro such as Aurora, Bazzite, Project Bluefin, or Fedora Silverblue you can “rebase” from one to another.

With an atomic distro all the system files are immutable, you can read them but only the OS can change them. As there’s a clear distinction from user files (anything in /var or /home) the OS can simply replace all the system components with a new distro and re-mount your files.

Well the “AI” we have today doesn’t think, it has no intelligence, it simply recycles things it’s heard before

They did an incredibly job finding unique filming locations across Northumberland.

The opening scenes are filmed in the maintenance tunnel beneath the dam at Kielder Water https://maps.app.goo.gl/UypK6WEymBMgVwTp9

The island scenes are filmed on Lindisfarne/Holy Island, although it looks like they’d heavily edited the layout and re-arranged it https://maps.app.goo.gl/HwWQGx6Ciqtqusoq6

River scenes are filmed at Plankey Mill / Allen Banks and Stawards Gorge https://maps.app.goo.gl/d5xcQ961bk9yA5p79

Lindisfarne again. Note the castle has been removed from the background.

I’m not sure where the beach scene is. I’m not aware of a forest right on a sandy beach like this in Northumberland so I suspect it might be heavily edited. They were filming at Matthews Linn in Kielder Forest so there’s a possibility it is here: https://www.bing.com/maps?cp=55.20521~-2.563028&lvl=17.4&style=h

I have no idea where the abandoned house is. They were filming somewhere along the Forest Drive at Kielder so it could be in that area.

The stony beach is just below Hawkhope Car Park by the dam at Kielder Water https://maps.app.goo.gl/YNrGnMepoeeF1fVP8

The following scene with the high concrete walls are filmed inside the spillway beside the dam. https://maps.app.goo.gl/9h2aoLdx9hXfMDdh7

They re-painted this abandoned petrol station at Knowesgate to become the Happy Eater. This is my personal favourite because despite them going for a dystopian, abandoned aesthetic they literally made it look better. https://maps.app.goo.gl/HnfEDbE3nGbxviQ57

Possibly because it’s presented how news used to be - a simple statement of fact without embellishment or click bait.

Even that’s more steps than necessary.
