There’s some reason to believe this one. For instance, the sudden rise of Epstein’s List on top of every feed seems to suggest that someone doesn’t like what Trump is doing or is about to do.

Second, I’ll just allow myself to hope that somehow a piece of sanity reached Trump.

Org-mode is like the SAP of personal knowledge management tools.

Credit where credit is due. I like this Trump dude at this exact moment.

It’s actually China and Russia who’s funding them currently.

If we consider UN as being the main arbitrator on who gets to launch a war, then to mention a few instances…

1950: North Korea illegally attacks South Korea.

1956: Soviet Union illegally invades Hungary.

1956: Israel / France / UK illegally invade Egypt. All invaders withdraw after UN condemnation and international pressure.

1964: USA illegally escalates Vietnam War.

1967: Israel launches the Six-Day War, illegality debated.

1968: Soviet Union illegally invades Czechoslovakia.

1973: Egypt and Syria attack Israel.

1974: Turkey illegally invades Cyprus.

1978: Vietnam illegally invades Cambodia.

1979: Soviet Union illegally invades Afghanistan.

1982: Israel illegally invades Libanon.

1983: USA illegally invades Grenada.

1989: USA illegally invades Panama.

1990: Iraq illegally invades Kuwait. Got their ass kicked by UN-sanctioned forces though so that worked out fine.

1999: NATO illegally bombs Yugoslavia.

2003: US and UK illegally invade Iraq.

2008: Russia illegally invades Georgia.

2014: Russia illegally invades and annexes Crimea.

2015: Saudi-Arabia illegally invades Yemen.

2022: Russia illegally invades Ukraine.

I probably forgot a few. No ill meaning meant, just missing knowledge.

Living in Finland is doubly humiliating. The country where Linux started, and IT chiefs almost in every company are going “oh yeah? I’m gonna use Microsoft products even harder”

I don’t like to say this about people I don’t know but fucking idiots, man.

Would it be better if he was, though?

It’s weird when two horrible entities in the world hate each other. Is it popcorn time?

Possible, I guess, although I have 32GB RAM + 8GB swap and I wasn’t doing anything out of the ordinary at the time.

Both the hardware and software (fedora 42 running cosmic desktop) are kinda cutting edge, so I think an honest crashing bug is more likely.

Fun coincidence, when I was about to write a supporting comment to this thread, my Fedora 42 running on X1 Carbon hard froze without any apparent reason and I had to hard reboot it.

For me Linux surpassed the Windows desktop experience in 1996 and even though Windows 2000 was a pretty good upgrade, I don’t think it has surpassed desktop Linux yet. Windows 10 was not bad either, but now that has gone mostly downhill whereas Linux has merely plateaud at worst or has been improving slowly at best.

If you’re not humblebragging, perhaps you oughta get a Linux-preinstalled laptop like System76.

If you were humblebragging, check out https://fedoraproject.org/workstation/ and get the Plasma edition.

Because it’s dangerous to be outside without being inside.

Well, in a democracy it’s important that people who want this can try to make it happen via official procedure, which this is.

That said, the people who want this are assholes and probably in bed with Russia.

I suppose the hit on Bin Laden couldn’t have been launched without significant presence in Afghanistan. Why you stayed there after that though was weird. That seems to have been Obama’s mistake.

More than many people did, though. Including you.

That would practically guarantee boots on the ground in Iran and a regime change in 3 months.

Iran’s leaders are dumb, but I don’t think they’re that dumb.

edit hate to repeat a standard antisemitic trope, but Israel would have a big reason to fake that

Yeah, citizens and nuclear weapon research are perfectly equivalent targets.

The USA responded by attacking the wrong country

Not just one! They got Osama bin Laden eventually though so amazing success
