ICE in Chicago tried to arrest food delivery dude
Reply in thread
Apparently, when he went back to pickup his phone, he said "Fuck Trump" to them. That and not being caucasian would be enough for them.

The sponges, gloves, Pringles can, and lotion go together to make a DIY fleshlight, apparently.

Have you noticed an uptick in drivers who are aggressive, rude, or just plain bad over the past few years?

Using turning/bus lanes to cross intersections is something that I see that went from rarely to daily. It drives me crazy since they usually try to force their way back in to the lane once they cross.

Faster Than Light, I've sunk more time into that game than any other.

It's even easier to prevent confusion if you use /dev/disk/by-id/ id's, it only took a few times of overwriting the wrong disk to figure that out.

Are there any CPUs that work well with Linux that aren't made by Intel or another company on the BDS list/that supports Israel?
I have a system with a Ryzen 1700 with the same issue and have found the only reliable way to run it is by installing and enabling the disable-c6-systemd package from the AUR. The other fixes provided in the wiki article you linked are correct but aren't sufficient on my system, the CPU keeps reenabling the C6 state on its own and the disable-c6-systemd package works to counter that. The reason it works on Windows is they've disabled the C6 state by default for the CPU.

Is Firefox VPN + libgen a safe enough way to get ebooks? Is there a better way?
I've only ever used IRC to find ebooks and never worried about a VPN. Check #ebooks on IRChighway or Undernet.

Nope, it's a shawl, a poncho would have a hole for the head in the middle whereas a shawl wraps around the shoulders.

What is your favorite package manager and why?
Nix, it's one of the few featuring reproducible builds.

The package is just a systemd unit to run the command python zenstates --c6-disable so if you install the zenstates-git package and get runit to run that command at startup it would be equivalent.

[Solved] How can I free space in BTRFS?
No real advice but I've heard of people having issues with their BTRFS filesystem running out of free inodes and reporting the filesystem as full due to that. Note that the df command is not expected to work properly for a BTRFS filesystem.

Kobo is owned by Rakuten, a Japanese company. Still a much better choice than Amazon though.

Same here. I came for the integrated ZFS support and stayed for the declarative config.

The first ever earthquake fault rupture captured on a security cam in Myanmar
I hope nobody was in the building in the background left. It looks like the rupture went right under it and did it's best to split the building in half.

Help imaging a IDE drive
Are either of the USB->IDE adapters ones with a second USB plug for more power? A long time ago I had issues using an adapter that didn't have a second plug as it wasn't supplying enough power to properly spin up the drive.
