Install Firefox, when the article paywalls you, hit the immersive reader button icon at the end of the URL, it will strip out the paywall nonsense and let you read the article.
We also have a lack of critical thinkers in Canada.
A section of my wife's friends (ex friends?) Are Trump supporters.
A branch of her family live and breathe Facebook nonsense without questioning validity.
A coworker sends me conspiracy theory videos, even though he works as a highly skilled engineer. Being smart and critical dissemination of information are different thought processes apparently.
Haha, I had a similar situation. Our chat app had a message from our IT about installing an app that tracks location and state of computer, but without the normal corporate memo first. Just a "hey please install from this link".
So I said " How do I know this is not a phishing scam".
The reply was "it's real, its's me ITguyname".
Me: "How do I know its the real ITGuyname and not an imposter."
Itguyname: "Because I'm standing up"
So I knew it was our IT guy by that joke, but there could still be a chance it wasn't. How is it a random dude is more suspicious of supposed chat connections that the US government.
Maybe its false info, and secretly we have lots. Spylevel 100
Yield good sir, doth thou decide in haste? Hath thou not the good word of ZorinOS upon thine ear?
You can install time shift on Ubuntu, with Mint it is part of the install process iirc, and default snapshotting with OpenSUSE install
How have Asian children fared well?
It is not that it is the best distro, its that it is the easier onboarding experience for a windows user
Mint is a good choice because it has an easy timeshift option, so a problem in an update is just a rollback/recover. Same as Snapper Rollback on distros like OpenSUSE, it means a non savvy Linux user can reboot and have it fixed. That is appealing for a lot of users that don't want to bother with finding the fix
We worked in a high paced Engineering office together, after the auto job, he would put his feet up and pile boxes near his desk to avoid working and read a book. There was more than enough stimulation available, he would just rather do what he wanted than work. Not everthing is the employers' doing, some people just make poor choices, even given opportunity.
Is anyone really surprised, UBER asks for microphone access as a security feature, so you can click record if the driver or passenger feels unsafe. Seems like an extension of this service that maybe wasn't supposed to be directly shared unless am incident happened
Slow day here, finally had time to clean 30 years of oil and dirt off my sockets
Many thanks to all those that maintain FOSS. i had setup a pi4 running 32 bit Debian Buster years ago (pandemic days) with OpenMediaVault 5. With the OMV docker and portainer plugin I had various dockers running, but found some dockerhub images weren't supporting 32bit. I had thought ubout updating to 64 bit install but thought I might have headaches, so just blocked the pi from accessing the internet and sidelined the update. Since it is the holidays I figured I would tackle an update.
Scope:
Step 1 add "arm_64bit=1" in the config.txt file of /boot and reboot. Took a while to boot with lots of drive activity but 64 kernel worked perfectly.
Step 2: run sudo omv-release-upgrade
That is it. Two commands and everything updated perfectly. Nothing to fix.
To me that is an amazing testament to the work put in by everyone for Linux kernel, the OS, OMV devs, and Applications maintainers. Amazing.
Hot day, Buddy wants some cool beans.
