World Cup tourists aren’t leaving tips — and restaurants are fighting back
What did you expect? They come from non tipping cultures. Where wait staff make livable wages. Not their fault we are incapable of paying people enough to live.

Musk Secretly Used Starlink to Foil Ukrainian Drone Attack on Russian Ships
Isn't it illegal to screw with the military actions of the U.S. ... and its allies?!!?

Linus Torvalds and Richard Stallman
I'm picturing Daffy Duck and Bugs Bunny swapping hunting signs on a tree... "Linux season!" "GNU season!", back and forth. The rest of us just watching like Elmer Fud.

I have this red number 1 next to my file manager in Fedora 38. No clue what it means or how to fix it
Warning: No matter what anyone tells you, do not use any rm command with the -r option and/or any wildcard charachers like * and ?, unless you understand the command fully.

I want to switch to Linux but there are a few major hurdles.
If you need Adobe, just don't bother with linux on your primary work / study machine. Save linux for another system.

Wayland heading for default as Mint devs add to Cinnamon 6 • The Register
The "TLDR" is sub heading is completely misleading. Cinnamon devs see they have to move, that's the reason. "Begging to work" on Wayland is not at all what the article says. Before you downvote, read it. Nothing in that article or the link to one dev's blog says anything even remotely like that.

Ubuntu 23.10 break graphical installer for local deb packages
This was no accident. They want you to install apps via their walled garden snap store.

I Spoke To The Developer Of The Systemd Birth Date PR - YouTube
He didn’t comply, he collaborated. It won’t deter anyone but pro fascist programmers from developing for Linux. Your defence of the indefensible says a lot about you, too.

Too bad you can't see who downvoted you, too... Need that leaked, as well.

Does Hexbear mandate all users to specify their preferred pronouns?
In their general rules:
Any pictures of food containing animal products, including but not limited to meat, cheese, or egg, must be tagged nsfw along with food discussion content warnings (CW: Food).
Animal Liberation is essential to any leftist movement, including platforms like Hexbear. Volunteers, comments, and posts, should not be anti-vegan, although users and volunteers are not required to be vegan.
Wow. Just wow. That is so far beyond leftist.

House Speaker Mike Johnson Skirts Question on Personal Bank Account
Reply in thread
Cant follow the money to see who owns him if there are no accounts. For any adult with a roof over their head, to not have at least one bank account is very odd, and for a politician, very sus.

Tell one thing that you miss after switching from another OS to Linux.
Not a darn thing.

What are the silliest reasons people have given you for not wanting to try Linux?
Why you out there telling people to install it? Those who want it will find it. This isn't an evangelical mission.

Trump expected to host Netanyahu at White House Monday
You know, anyone can honor the ICC’s warrant. Any individual. Doesn’t have to be a state actor. A mob of good intentioned folks can scoop him up and fly him to them. And because the ICC issued it, it’s not illegal to do so.

AMD Wants To Know If You'd Like Ryzen AI Support On Linux
Sure, if it's a native Linux port. If it requires WINE, forget it.

Ubuntu's Mozillateam PPA now forcing users over to snap install for Firefox.
Reply in thread
For one, the snap version is 115 instead of 116, so it's reverting me to an older version, which makes firefox want to wipe my profile. Not ok. Two, I was purposely using the Mozillateam PPA to get non snap installations, and they up and changed that on us with no warning. Then there is the matter that firefox as a snap is slower. And finally, I can't add the Widevine for arm64 plugin to the snap.
Snap for browsers is a terrible idea.
