That’s super-interesting! Could you share some details?

Vinegar, lemon juice and other acids bring a sour flavor to a dish that when combined with other flavors can add a brightness to it.

Play defense for the good guys.

Typically the GPL covers the source code. Compiled, packaged and branded binaries are sometimes licensed separately. This is how Red Hat works for example.

I use an RSS reader to grab headlines from several sources. I read the headlines once in the morning and once in the evening. My goal is to know what is going on. As much as possible I try not to get too emotionally engaged during this process. I try to be informed without being outraged or depressed.

Vegemite is good. I like Promite better.

Caraway seeds are good too.

Yes I have been a Lemmy advocate since I joined, but I have only ever gotten one person to use Lemmy. I told one of my daughters friends mom about Lemmy. She does not allow her daughter to use social media. Except for Lemmy.

So that is it. My one conversion. I have kind of given up on trying to convert people. I still love Lemmy and the Fediverse, but the year of Lemmy mainstream has yet to come.

I feel like OP missed an opportunity to title this post “Fedora Flatpaks Fall Flat”

Great article, BTW

I read it. It was relevant. Otherwise I would not have posted it. I did not clean it up because I was on mobile and it was legible as is.

I asked several questions and was impressed at the result. I know people do not like LLMs, but they are tools just like a search engine. I am somehow getting Butlerian Jihad vibes.

I could have gotten the same information from Google. Would that still be lazy?

From ChatGPT:

Ending the Bretton Woods system in 1971 had a cascading effect on corporate profits and income distribution. Wealth shifting toward shareholders and executives rather than workers:

1. Deregulation of Money and Credit

Once the dollar was no longer tied to gold, the U.S. government and Federal Reserve had more flexibility in managing the money supply. This led to:

• Higher inflation, which eroded workers’ real wages.

• Easier access to credit, fueling corporate financialization (more focus on stock buybacks, mergers, and financial engineering instead of wage growth).

2. Rise of Shareholder Capitalism

With the shift away from the gold standard, corporate governance changed. Instead of focusing on long-term growth and worker stability, companies prioritized maximizing shareholder value, which became a dominant ideology by the 1980s (reinforced by Milton Friedman’s theories).

• Stock Buybacks & Dividends – Companies increasingly used profits to buy back shares, boosting stock prices and benefiting executives/shareholders.

• Executive Compensation in Stocks – CEO pay shifted from salaries to stock options, aligning their interests with shareholders rather than employees.

3. Decline in Labor’s Bargaining Power

As globalization and automation accelerated, companies could move production abroad, weakening the leverage of American workers. Meanwhile:

• Unions declined, further reducing workers’ ability to demand wage increases.

• Deregulation in industries like finance, airlines, and trucking shifted power away from labor and toward corporate management.

4. Explosion of Financialization

The detachment from gold allowed an unrestricted credit boom, fueling speculative bubbles and making the financial sector more dominant. Instead of reinvesting profits into worker wages or capital expansion, firms:

• Focused on financial activities (derivatives, leveraged buyouts, etc.), which benefited investors rather than workers.

• Moved toward short-term profits, cutting costs via outsourcing and automation.

End Result

With productivity still rising but wages stagnating, the gains went disproportionately to executives and shareholders. This is why, after 1971, you see charts showing a widening gap between worker pay and corporate profits.

Looks like this happened:

OpenSSH server has had built-in support for WebAuthn keys since 8.2.

According to Framework support, there are no supported models as of yet.

I have a Framework 13 AMD running Linux Mint. It works great and I love it. Modular IO ports are super nifty.

Here are the downsides as I see them:

1. Price
2. No touch screen
3. No wifi 7

I expect 2&3 will come in the future and I can upgrade! The fact that I can upgrade rather than throw it away in the future offsets 1.

What type of key do you have. Yubikey 5 supports multiple protocols including some you can use with SSH:

• Multi-protocol: YubiKey 5 Series is the most versatile security key supporting multiple authentication protocols including FIDO2/WebAuthn (hardware bound passkey), FIDO U2F, Yubico OTP, OATH-TOTP, OATH-HOTP, Smart card (PIV) and OpenPGP.

SSH would need to implement webauthn to support FIDO.

“Altermagnetic materials, first theorized in 2022, have a structure that sits somewhere in between. Each individual magnetic moment points in the opposite direction as its neighbor, as in an antiferromagnetic material. But each unit is slightly twisted relative to this adjacent magnetic atom, resulting in some ferromagnetic-like properties.

Altermagnets, therefore, combine the best properties of both ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic materials. “The benefit of ferromagnets is that we have an easy way of reading and writing memory using these up or down domains,” study co-author Alfred Dal Din, a doctoral student also at the University of Nottingham, told Live Science. “But because these materials have a net magnetism, that information is also easy to lose by wiping a magnet over it.””

Secure can also mean more resilient. The infosec C-I-A triangle has three legs. Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability. Immutable distros are more resilient and thus offer better availability in the face of attacks or accidents.

I like S3 because I only pay for what I use and it has auto storage tiering.

So what’s the deal with the crows?
