  • If you search this story up you just get a whole wave of Australian tabloid papers and bourgeois media sources. I even found a facebook post of a "Uyghur womans group"

    They really didn't even try with this one, it'll work anyway because search engines are so busted in the West.

  • He must've smelled really bad after going months without showering. Why would prison authorities stop inmates from cleaning themselves for months which prevents disease and unhygienic conditions for other prisoners and staff? Cause they're chinese that's why!

    Real escape from camp 14 vibes, just overload with misery to make westerners feel good when all their rights are being stripped during an ongoing genocide of Palestine.

  • You could probably disable the sandbox on flatpak steam and have it work as a normal app. The benefit of flatpak steam is that on some systems it avoids having to install 32-bit libraries and sandboxes itself away from your main system.

    I think the current shortcoming of flatpak is that the user's control of the sandbox isn't clearly there. GNOME requires a 3rd party application while KDE has it buried under system settings. Ideally, the android system would be used where permissions would be doled out on command (which is what ubuntu snap actually does).

    Flatpak is here to stay though, the alternative is a century of dependency humiliation and downstream/upstream wars. The traditional way of doing things with all native packages (deb, rpm) is outdated and will hurt people infinitely more than having to interface with a sandbox.

  • I've done that once with pulao, at least the bottom layer took most of the damage that time.

  • DeepSeek a less bad llm

    It's only less bad in that it was relatively cheaper to produce, but LLMs are hot garbage that reward laziness and destroy culture. Death to all techbros including Chinese techbros.

  • I'm not reading this, this is AI slop. I'm not engaging with a piece of writing not authored by a human. I really don't like that you posted this.

  • They beat me for two days straight in the first police station that I was in. I hadn't slept or eaten or had water for 48 hours and then I was forced to sign a big stack of documents

    Doubt.

    Court documents indicate that this worked at least to some extent, earning him a four-year sentence.

    Where? There's no citation.

    "We were banned from showering or cleaning ourselves, sometimes for months at a time. Even the toilet could be used only at specific allotted times, and they were filthy - waste from the toilets above would constantly drip down on to us."

    Doubt.

    I highly doubt that a prison supposedly only housing foreigners (news flash, it doesn't as per a 2009 NY Times article on a chinese "dissident") would have US/Israeli conditions. The lack of any primary documents indicates this.

    This is likely a completely fabricated story, on the level of social credit scores

  • It's the onus of GNOME maintainers to be civil but people can call GNOME the cancer of Linux and face no public repercussions.

    "Contributions welcome!" will always be my favorite reply.

  • https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/3111

    Please, let's not discuss the matter of why running nautilus with sudo -- hold your knowledge on this particular matter for yourself because the issue here is more important. :)

    I wish I had half the patience of the average GNOME desktop maintainer. It must be incredibly painful to deal with really smug and unhinged comments all the time.

    [Rant. Feel free to skip] It's July 2023. We have self-driving cars, we sent a car to the space and we now have ChatGPT, an AI almost able to write a novel for you. But in Linux you still can't drag and drop a compressed file from Archive to a Nautilus window. Come on. This bug has been around for 4 f*cking years. Bill Gates must be rolling on the floor laughing while saying "Windows allows drag and drop since version 3.1".

    Another comment:

    and what this tells me is that the efforts are being focused in other areas instead of basic user experience, which is something that - for a good reason (investment + high quality standards) - Apple still has the upper hand and we should learn a thing or two from them.

  • instance, admins, moderators, or other users as Nazis or Zionists, without substantial supporting arguments.

    "We are only zionazis if you convince us we are in the free marketplace of ideas."

    Tbh shit like this is why hexbear is the literal only space online I feel the least bit comfortable speaking in (and probably lemmygrad as well).

  • now slippin wmill I can handle just fine but slippin wmill with a law degree is like a chimp with a machine gun. :chuck-butthurt:

  • Soyuz 38

    There's your reason. I'm like 99% percent sure that there's a filter in place for controversial topics like "the soviet union" and "communism" just like how it always was before generative llms.

  • What no dialectical materialism does to a mf.

    Tbh the whole online subculture of "RoK society is going to collapse" is really annoying to me. Nearly all of them are devoid of any class analysis and just serve to manufacture consent for a hot war against the DPRK.

    The kuzyogurt (im not going to spell that right) video on South Korea's birthrate is probably the most subtle way I've seen of slowly preparing people to accept RoK's collapse into a fascist military state from a neoliberal capitalist one. Zero solutions presented just "hey we are going to die."

    In other words: westerners should shut up about Korea.
