Then you just wait until somebody enters in.
When the person opens the door you run to them and yell “wait wait wait” while frantically gesturing. After you enter - say quick “thank you” and disappear.

Zip is fine (I prefer 7z), until you want to preserve attributes like ownership and read/write/execute rights.

Some zip programs support saving unix attributes, other - do not. So when you download a zip file from the internet - it’s always a gamble.
Tar + gzip/bz2/xz is more Linux-friendly in that regard.

Also, zip compresses each file separately and then collects all of them in one archive.
Tar collects all the files first, then you compress the tarball into an archive, which is more efficient and produces smaller size.

mod+shift+q so you wouldn’t close hours of work by accident (e.g. when typing other mod+_ keybinds)

it’s a marketing stunt not a logic-related problem

He might do like 2-5 deliveries per trip if they align.

Well, then you have to find another name for that kind of software and define it that way. I certainly would support such an effort, i.e. to make software available to everyone at no cost.

There’s no need to come up with new terms or change the existing ones. Free software is inherently free in price. And you can’t enforce paying for software without the restrictions put in place (e.g. drm). Here’s a quote from https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/selling.en.html :

With free software, users don’t have to pay the distribution fee in order to use the software. They can copy the program from a friend who has a copy, or with the help of a friend who has network access. Or several users can join together, split the price of one CD-ROM, then each in turn can install the software. A high CD-ROM price is not a major obstacle when the software is free.

Free software can have a price, but paying it is optional.

I meant that free software is inherently can’t have a price. Even if you provide source code only to your users, they are free to share that source code for free.

Thus there can’t be piracy because piracy of free software is inherently allowed.

And if you try to prevent your users from sharing the source either legally or with drm - you add restrictions to software, making it less free for your users.

The recent situation with RedHat provides good demonstration and example of this.

It’s free as in freedom, not as in free beer.

But you can’t have one without the other. Putting a cost on software is adding a restriction, thus making it less free (as in freedom).

Free software should be available to everyone, even to people who don’t have money to pay for it (poor third world countries, students, kids).

I personally believe, that you should pay for software that helps you earn money. For everything else - it’s everyone’s own decision to donate or not, based on a financial situation, beliefs, political position and what not.

In theory this issue can be solved with LD_PRELOAD trick. E.g. redirect all/most/some fopen calls to “$HOME” to some other directory. But before I try to tackle it myself: is there already a similar solution like that?

I thought about this for some time. An anarchy would always collapse into governed state.

First, imagine the perfect scenario where there no authority and world is just a lot of tiny city-sized communities. It would take just a single bad actor to form a state, start invading neighboring communities and growing in power. In response - other communities would be forced to group into increasingly bigger states to have a chance to oppose influence from bigger/richer states.

This thought experiment also works if violent takeover is replaced by economic one. Think of cartels and monopolies.

I don’t understand.
How is it hard to remember: “eXtract File” = “tar xf …”? If tar is gZipped - it’s “tar xzf …”.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen tarball that wouldn’t work with one of these two commands.

Try libredirect, it automatically redirects links from twitter, youtube, imgur and many other spying platforms to alternative privacy friendly frontends. It is also very customizable: you can turn only some redirects and configure what particular site to use for each platform.

Free gravel it is 😒. Why would someone make a quiz with no choice ?!

I have pretty minimalistic setup.

Three dropdown terminals, managed by a bash script: top for quick commands, left and right for nvim.

Bar is i3bar, with a custom status program written in Nim language (can display any command output with conditional colors).

Somebody should make a standard for non-intrusive, not spying, ethical ads (no clickbaits, no contrasting colors, related to the article, etc. etc.).

Adblocks would have websites that strictly follow these guidelines in a whitelist by default (opt-out).

That’s the middle ground. But, I doubt any big ad company like Google or Meta would push for it, if not against.

There’re multiple things OpenSUSE does differently, when compared to most other distros:

• they enable firewall by default.
• they have automatic testing pipeline, that catches most broken, not-working applications before they’re made available to public.
• if update breaks your setup - you can rollback to previous snapshot in minutes.
• supports both apparmor and selinux.

I’m using metager.org, because I won’t trust a closed-source service like DDG or profit-driven company like Brave to not censor their search results.

Look at how his left hand is ‘attached’ to the body, almost like an action toy figure.

Pretty sure AI has higher res.

Lots of compression is very common way to hide imperfections in photoshopped (and now AI-generated) images to pass them as real.

Whose eyes are those eyes?
