Yes that one

It is depressing studying science only to realise that whatever research you do to improve the world you will be ignored unless someone can profit from it. Truly an advanced civilisation

Looking at the article the insect repellant bottle looks a lot like a juice bottle, but still

The automatic updates are really good it would be better if they integrated with GNOME software, but it is still a distro I would recommend to people who want something that “just works”. Atomic really is the future of linux

Their instructions aren’t quite right, I did find that I had to change the icon theme back to adwaita myself using GNOME tweaks.

Yeah I use silverblue on another computer and previously on this one, but the killer feature of bluefin is that NVIDIA drivers and codecs are built right into the image (as with the other ublue images) meaning that you don’t need to layer them and risk a bad upgrade. I’m planning on bringing the other computer over as well even though it’s AMD, at least I’ll get ROCm and the codecs.

Recently switched to bluefin from workstation, I was initially a bit held back by all of the GNOME customisations, but they’re pretty straightforward to revert back to default. While I like the idea of automatic updates it would be nice if it integrated with GNOME software to make it easier to control. Otherwise if you’re looking for an immutable/atomic desktop and want it to pretty much work out of the box I would highly recommend

driving while unhealthy, tired or whatever or taking drugs known to increase violent tendencies like alcohol.

If it was up to me, alcohol would be banned as well but such a ban would be largely impractical and there would also be a large black market formed just by how easy the stuff is to make—it literally used to be a learning exercise in year 12 chemistry in QLD. When it comes to driving when unhealthy or tired, there is generally a choice to not drive and if you do crash you will almost always be identified as being at fault. So it’s not like there is no recourse for those poor decisions. With vapes the user cannot stop anytime they want, they’re addictive and there are companies exploiting that.

Even though he probably shouldn’t have accepted antmy offer from a phone call, I think there is a really important story in there about the lax security of his super fund, not checking documents properly or requiring a second factor of authentication. To think a piece of paper can securely cause the transfer of 180k in the 21st Century is ludicrous

QUEEEEENSLANDAAAAAAAAAAAA!

I don’t understand why the Women’s game is being drip-fed the features of the Men’s game. Only this year is a third game introduced, and the matches are still only 70mins. Can’t women play the extra 10 minutes? Whichever I look at it I just reach sexism.

It’s a lot easier to avoid fog machines than it is people vaping. I’ve never seen a fog machine at the train station…

Not exactly, as they won’t be promoting the vapes as they’ll be plainly packaged and they’ll be heavily regulated. They will still profit but not encouraging it

Are you saying that vaping is a good thing and a net positive?

A bunch of businesses will basically be shut down because of this … they can’t exactly pivot to something else

It’s a damn shame too - I don’t know what we’ll do without all those businesses built around exploiting drug addicts

Thanks for linking that, their position makes a bit more sense now, at least by restricting them to pharmacies there won’t be as much of a black market

You can just not watch it. I think it’s their genuine opinion probably not rage bait

I’m not sure I understand the Greens position on vapes. Are they pro-tobacco or something? or is it about creating a black market?

Exactly, what the video fails to mention is the eventuality that the software ceases to be supported, then what? You’ve built your entire business around this piece of software and it would cost more to migrate to something else than having someone who understands the code or perhaps someone doing it for free on the internet. But with server software especially, I wouldn’t be surprised if some of this proprietary stuff ends up going SaaS only ripping off any companies that self host.

Happy to provide. YouTube gave me brainrot by recommending this idiot to me, now I pass the brainrot on to everyone else
