Is this a question?

We haven’t even come close to exhausting 64-bit addresses yet. If you think the bit number makes things faster, it’s technically the opposite.

Whomever is running that company is a donor. Called it.

Dunno, mang.

The white dust on the carpet is a bit off-putting. If that’s meant to be vacuumed up, I’m now wondering if you’re just using it to cover up some horrible smell, and if not, definitely not looking forward to finding out whatever that powder is.

The mind wanders, you know. Not super into it.

Saving everyone a watch of unoriginal bullshit: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Selkirk

He was marooned, lived through it for 4 years, but died from what sounds like Malaria a few years later.

Very clear facts asserting why he should take it off and doesn’t deserve it, backed up by military records over a decade ago, but y’know…“DEEP STATE”.

I watched them. There’s nothing there that is aggressive at all. He very clearly laid out and explained the issues with the ideas put forth by the ideas in that paper, and explicitly said why he did it that way (that’s how a colleague in science would note things), and further said if you’re to be taken seriously, you should expect such feedback from peers who are reviewing your work. That’s quite accurate.

What was your take on this that sounds negative?

Well, the BSOD without a reboot should have been the giveaway. The keyboard clicking noises should have been another.

Light sensor threshold, and a rule to trigger the blinds. Pretty simple.

I think you might just be using cheap shit off of Amazon lol.

This was a prerecorded video, if you did not catch that.

I think “prick” is a bit far. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten any malice or ill-intent from him. He’s just a very blunt speaker who may not immediately recognize the social repercussions of what he’s saying in the moment. I think he recognizes this and constantly apologizes for the way he speaks.

It was a premade video…

I’m sure they would not entrust such a thing to a Windows OS in reality lol

You’re aware of file permissions, right?

So if you’re concerned about a specific set of files that you don’t want moved, AND they’re in a normal userspace location…

It’s apparently whatever “they” are doing that you don’t like, and it changes ALL THE TIME. It’s classic Fascism and fostering the idea of “Us V Them”.

*except they can only be the size of a button

What you describe in your post is a user who is not confident enough to manage their own machine with the CLI, and is afraid of misplacing files.

What you seem to not understand is that if you made the mv and cp commands require some sort of user interaction, nothing would ever work on the system, at least not in userspace if that’s the intent. No installer scripts, package managers, apps which use such commands…etc. Imagine implementing a rule like you describe, and then trying to copy/paste something in a GUI file manager, or organize music or photos.

So if you’re so afraid of moving something that needs not be moved, put some simple rules in place for yourself:

• Don’t fuck around with anything outside of your homedir
• Learn to reinstall system packages

Pretty simple. You also probably want to be on ZFS or BTRFS so you can undo your mistakes if you make them.

Isn’t literally ANY option here simpler than what you’re describing?

If you have these types of issues, just move to an immutable distro.

Seems this is a loophole that needs to be closed, but who do we yell at to do so?

I have zero expectations for him to win. I’m more wondering what they’re going to try this time when he doesn’t. ‘Jan 6: Part II’ isn’t going to happen, and I fear we’re all going to be dealing with militia insurgency bullshit for the foreseeable future.
