Well then there’s zero consequences in him vetoing something, if it will be instantly overruled. Except Biden doesn’t actually care. Biden shocked Menachim Begin back in the eighties by saying the IDF should feel free to murder Palestinian civilians. He clearly hasn’t become more compassionate to the Palestinian people over time.
AIPAC donated $15 million to a racist “democrat” in New York to unseat Jamaal Bowman. The Democratic Party regularly supports people who are against the stated platform of the party. When they are in power they don’t do shit to improve life for average people because they also only care about the moneyed interests that support them. Now they’re refusing to say anything about Israel prosecuting a genocide, when they could end it in a week. If Biden cut off aid pending a full ceasefire, the IDF would be out of Gaza and the West Bank overnight. But because of reasons, Biden and the democrats won’t do shit, and innocent Palestinians will continue to be tortured and murdered using American made weapons.
I was wondering about that, I saw a botanist’s video about a carnivorous plant nursery and he mentioned plants like VFTs and pitcher plants evolved in high-precipitation areas where the soil has been leached of nutrients.
Speaking as an American, I am completely unsurprised this happened. In fact I am certain that this is maybe .001% of the number of cops who have used this tool for personal purposes. I’d bet $100 if you got into it, this particular cop pissed off someone in his department and that’s why we know about his misuse of the tool.
Is there a non-infowalled version? WaPo asks for email even on a gifted article.
I really wish this didn’t need to be clarified every few days. Thanks, zionists and white supremacists!
Dave Chapelle had a whole bit about this before he decided to double (and triple, and quadruple) down on transphobia. He makes the very salient point that these things are delicious.
Melon with something savory is a widely popular choice. See: honeydew with prosciutto/parma ham and cantaloupe/honeydew with tajin (Mexican mix of savory spices.)
Yet another reason to avoid this absolutely unnecessary spectacle.
The “THIS IS A DEEPFAKE VOICE” label really helps human brains tell that it’s a deepfake voice.
Yeah, that’s the wrong word. “Extracted” or “looted” or “stole” are all more appropriate.
Skip the psych exam. Restore the “public servant” aspect.

After you leave office, you can teach classes as long as your compensation is no more than the lowest-paid professor at the school that employs you. You can write books. Or you can enjoy your pension. No corporate jobs or partner positions at fancy law firms.
None, because seeing a four minute unskippable ad halfway through a two minute video would make me go apoplectic.
Depends on a number of factors. A ton of companies have moved to web based tools for a big chunk of their workforce. If those web apps are more or less standards-compliant you could pull it off with minimal retraining.
My best read on that phenomenon is that a few people took the discussion from Clerks a little further and started arguing as a joke that the empire were just trying to establish order as. They started r/EmpireDidNothingWrong, where irony-poisoned kids began taking the joke seriously, just like the people who legitimately believe the whole “birds aren’t real” theory.
It’s not saying “do something,” it’s saying “stop supporting the evil empire in real life.”
Considering what I know about Alan Moore I’m 50/50 on thinking this literally happened or is just a useful metaphor.

I installed Jellyfin on an iMac running Fedora 39/Gnome and it was running more or less without any issues. However, I wanted to have the iMac on a VPN which would prevent accessing content indexed by Jellyfin elsewhere. So I installed Ubuntu on an old Mac Mini that I had, planning to make it a NAS box as well as host Jellyfin. The install there did not go well at all, I got the error "The server is expected to host the web client, but the provided content directory is either invalid or empty."
I found a post on github where a user created the directory listed in the error and then copied from /usr/share/jellyfin/web/ and when I did that the startup went further but then it threw the error "Kestrel failed to start! This is most likely due to an invalid address or port bind - correct your bind configuration in network.xml and try again."
I could not find a clear answer as to where the "network.xml" file is located, and I couldn't find any files that seemed to have the contents that were expected in network.xml. I put that aside for another day, considering a different distro if there are any others that are better with jellyfin than Ubuntu.
Today I was going to watch something that had been working on the Fedora box, and it would not play. I checked systemctl and jellyfin was not running. I tried launching it from the terminal and I got the same "server is expected to host the web client" error I had before.
Has anyone else run into these issues? Is there any better documentation out there than what is on the jellyfin site? Any help is much appreciated.
I installed Fedora 39 on an old iMac I had with a fusion drive (128GB SSD +1TB spinning disk.)
Fedora is installed on the SSD, and I want to use the spinning disk as a media drive. Problem is, it does not mount by default, so I figure I need to edit /etc/fstab to have it mount at startup.
I’m at work so I SSH into the iMac and get the UUID for the disk and then open fstab in vi, enter the new line with the uuid, directory I want the drive mounted in (/media), the filesystem (ext4) and the options. Try to write and quit, get an error the file is readonly. Try to set the file to noreadonly, write fails again. Try :wq! and get the error the file cannot be opened to write.
Exit vi, ls -la and see the file is read-only.
sudo chmod 644 fstab, put in password. ls -la shows file is still read only. lsattr fstab, immutable flag is not set.
Is this happening because I’m on SSH, or is there some other issue?
I recently picked up the python mastery bundle from humble bundle and one of the books (about larger-scale projects) has its exercises built around using anaconda virtual environments. I am able to create a project using:
% conda create -n project0 —channel=conda-forge python=3.12
But when I try to activate project0 I get an error that “activate” is an invalid choice. When I tried to initialize conda for Bash, my terminal behaved like the default echo for typed characters turned off.
I have an old iMac that I am planning to install some flavor of Linux on and while I was looking at various distros it occurred to me that it might be a good exercise to install Gentoo on it. Other than a separate machine for documentation and downloading the necessary packages, what else should I have set up to try this? Has anyone installed Gentoo on a Mac before? If so, what concerns are there related to things like Apple’s implementation of EFI?
I have a Lenovo Carbon X1 that is a few years old (7th gen), and I am running Fedora 38.5 with GNOME 44.5. The issue is that the system does not sleep properly. If I close the lid, nothing suspends properly, so if it is not on a charger or shut down it will die within several hours in my bag. Are there any distros that handle power management and suspend status on this hardware better than Fedora?
Hoboken has slowed traffic and increased bike lanes and pedestrian areas, leading to a six year period with zero pedestrian deaths.
I am buying a friend’s PC for games. I want to avoid windows if at all possible, and I’m wondering what people’s experience using Proton in Linux for gaming has been. Are there certain publishers who use libraries Proton doesn’t handle well? Are there distros to avoid using with proton? Any other notes I should be aware of?
“The first act of violence that patriarchy demands of males is not violence toward women. Instead patriarchy demands of all males that they engage in acts of psychic self-mutilation, that they kill off the emotional parts of themselves. If an individual is not successful in emotionally crippling himself, he can count on patriarchal men to enact rituals of power that will assault his self-esteem.”
That bell hooks quote was the one that made me realize that feminism wasn’t just about bringing women into equality with men, but about protecting everyone from the violence of patriarchy.
