Luckily it was just a chmod

that can still render a system unbootable 😅

it’s not obvious but, i’m pretty sure this meme (and its creator’s vehement opposition to rust) is in fact substantially motivated by queerphobia.

I recommend TeleSUR’s english-language live stream, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nN3vtMzxTo

Oddly it has only 45 people watching currently, and was under 200 viewers every time I was watching it yesterday 🤔

did the US, just conquer a whole nation overnight?

if you only listen to US media you might think so; at the press conference today Trump said “we’ll run it” as if they already control it, and he also claimed that Vice President (now acting president) Delcy Rodríguez told US Secretary of State Marco Rubio that “we’ll do whatever you need”. However, a few hours later:

The Vice President of Venezuela demanded the release of Nicolás Maduro and Cilia Flores during the National Defense Council, reaffirming Maduro as the sole president and at the same time announcing the activation of the Citizen Security Agency and national power to defend independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity, which they denounce as attacked.

so, no, although the US has kidnapped their president, at this point in time they have not actually conquered the nation.

Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.

Thanks. I’ve edited the post to link to the same source’s text article instead (and linked the corresponding video this post originally linked to in the post body)

i thought the photo in this thumbnail looked familiar, and then realized it’s because I just saw a post from her a minute ago - one of many linking to a very old video of a large crowd in Venezuela falsely claiming that it shows people celebrating the US kidnapping Maduro today.

Debianfest is in Argentina this year … 🍿

DebConf. Not to be confused with debconf.

I can tell you that the GitHub code isn’t the code that’s used

really? given that the license is AGPL and they do have some external contributors, they shouldn’t be running an unpublished branch of the code!

look at their responses in the .ml cross-post,

that post is now deleted, but you can see their modlog here

Obviously the criminal here is the person who asked the question and posted a screenshot of the answer.

I doubt it; it would be odd if they were named after a fictional Dutch-American :)

i guess “bring your watch” implies a lack of good tools for profiling C++ on Linux?

I can’t really imagine a benefit to --autoremove except for keeping old packages a bit longer before removing them.

Eg, if you run apt --update --autoremove upgrade -y once a day you’ll keep your prior-to-currently-running-version kernel packages a day longer than if you ran autoremove immediately after each upgrade.

To make things more confusing: the new-ish apt full-upgrade command seems to remove most of what apt autoremove wants to… but not quite everything. 🤷
