Reminds me of a joke I'm going to attempt to translate:

  • Why do woodpeckers have beaks?
  • So they don't smash their heads against the tree.

And your answer is...?
People like you vote. Or should vote?! But should they if they just choose to be ignorant?!
You're a living argument against democracy 🥲

Is it just me, or are lots of mods just banning anyone with a dissenting opinion?

I like to be a bit contrarian, play devil's advocate, stuff like that, so sometimes I know what I post isn't going to jive with the community I'm posting in, but I think there's value in that. It starts a discussion and it offers a different pov.

Maybe I'm wrong and stupid, and someone can reply and explain why. I think that would be a net benefit. But what happens instead is my post gets deleted and I get banned. :/

I genuinely think this is a real issue and it leads to echo chambers, but am curious to see what other ppl think? Am I just salty? :)

Hello everyone!

I have the events from Nextcloud show up in the calendar, and that all works fine, but every update (at least I think it's due to updates) it all gets deselected and I have to tick the boxes again for events to show up.

I wouldn't mind even a hacky solution like a cron job to run at every boot or something like that - but I don't know where calendar settings are stored/configured.

Any help/advice is welcome!
Thanks!

Hi!

I'm trying to run the emacs daemon as a systemd user unit, and I'm seeing this error when trying to launch the GUI client:

Authorization required, but no authorization protocol specified

From what I've seen online it might be due to it trying to start before I'm logged in or something like that.
It does work after restarting the unit but I don't want to do that every time.

Anyone else see this before? Any ideas for a fix? Is there a better way of starting the emacs daemon?

Part of the US' PR strategy is to use a person of color when voting for genocide. Makes it seem like "see even minorities agree on this one".

Afaik the charges were just a tool fabricated to be used against him.
He exposed US war crimes and therefore they made him an enemy of the state and want to make an example out of him, to show others that when going against the US you have no rights - they can torture you, imprison you forever, etc.

I think people who dislike the headphone jack must be young and not have (good) wired headphones.
Older people (older than teenagers and young adults I mean) often have a few pairs of good headphones they got over the years, and it's a massive waste to just throw them away and buy wireless because that's what the trends demand. And in most cases wireless won't sound as good, because the budget needs to go to bluetooth chips, and dacs, and batteries and all that crap, instead of just focusing on audio.

According to Wikipedia, 'The original 1⁄4 inch (6.35 mm) version descends from as early as 1877', and it's been an industry standard since then.
You can use it not just for headphones but as a line out, to connect all kinds of audio devices between them. You can hook up your phone to a car audio system, an old radio (if it has input, I think most do), a guitar pedal or an amplifier, a reverb or an effects unit, etc., just with the "magic" of wires.

If you're considering buying one you might want to take into account that they removed the headphone jack so they can sell their own wireless buds and headphones.

Garry pulled Linux support from Rust so imho he can get fucked too :)

Edit: to clarify I mean after I and other people purchased it with Linux support.
So now he knows what it feels like when you purchase something and the seller changes terms on ya. Nice!

You have to scroll a bit to see the announcement. Curious to see what people think of this. I am a bit reluctant/skeptical, thinking if they get it wrong it's going to mess everything up.

This is the kind of post we need around here :)

I suggest you do poop, your plan atm sounds cartoonishly stupid and likely to blow up in your face.

Do keep us posted though!
