They should be investing their energy into finding a way to make better use of these small logs instead of wasting them like this.

The guy is German, and the German language traditionally uses generic masculine pronouns, although that has become a big political issue in the past years. Some new gender-neutral forms have developed, but some of them have even been banned by the “center”-right-wing clowns in two state governments, and it’s all a bit of a mess. The guy probably thoght “they” in English is a similarly experimental concept, and while it’s still dumb and he should just try to be as inclusive as possible, it’s probably not a matter of him purposefully excluding women from the documentation.

Are people here reading the whole mastodon thread?

it is 200% okay to bully them into submission

Sounds rather toxic, and also counterproductive.

I read it like russia sabotaged the PMs own arson attempt

Why would this little bash script that does nothing extraordinary need constant updates? Some pieces of software might just be complete as they are.

Idk, I’m not really talking about whether the article is good or not, but about the people it is about and their misconception about what the challenges of climate change will be. Maybe the article itself is also a problem because its not at all critical about that stance, but whatever.

True, but in General there is a tendency to underestimate the catastrophy the world is heading towards, and to make other people underestimate it too, so they buy your luxury goods.

People should start worrying about what they are going to eat before they make plans on where they are going to get the champagne from

It says in the article, the number of flights this would affect might be very small. They originally wanted to ban flights with a train alternative under 4 hours, but that didn’t get through.

I agree that manjaro is shit, but “your distro is shit” is not helpful advice for someone who wants to get their graphical session back.

You can also check /var/log/pacman.log for the packages you installed, then pacman -Ql the packages to list what files they might have changed

Classic, never fix anything, just change to <my preferred distro>, you wouldnt have experienced any problems, ever

Have you checked the log files under /var/log/xorg.0…log?

If you want to get your graphical session back quickly, maybe try setting up GNOME with wayland (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GNOME#Wayland_sessions)

Translation (trying to conserve the odd wording):

Rainbows prove that there is a dome located above us.

For a rainbow to appear, one needs something that can reflect light. A dome can do precisely that. If you try to create a rainbow, without something reflective being near, the rainbow won’t be displayed.

“Everyone knew it was impossible. But then, a fool who didn’t know came along. And afterwards he also knew.”

I used to like the idea of nixos because it felt “tidy” to configure everything centrally. However that tidyness is achieved by adding an extra layer which just replicates the configuration options of every program. If there is a bug in that layer or something is just not implemented, either you have to learn the whole inernals of nixos and nixpkgs, for which there is no real documentation, or you have to resort to doing things imperatively again, which is hard because of the opacity of the generated system and also defeats the whole purpose. So basically, you are completely dependent on nixos developers for things you could have easily done yourself on arch.

Nice liar’s paradox you constructed there.

Right now the salinity of the ocean is decreasing because of the polar ice melting. So to some extent, taking freshwater out of the ocean should be beneficial to preserving its ecological conditions.

Would be. Or i could just argue that the prevalent notion of health is too focused on physiological issues, and that in the recent efforts to recognize depression as a valid illness, there is a tendency to reframe it as a neurological disease, rather than validating mental issues as such. As far as I’m informed the neurological processes involved in depression and the effect of psychotropic drugs are not well understood, so there isn’t even a basis there to determine what causes what.
