Leave the country instead of trying to improve it? Sucks for anyone about to be hit by a falling bus surrendered to the people voting to send it off a cliff.

I'm not judging people with their life/freedom at risk deciding to get out while they can. I am judging the person I responded to for saying that voting against fascism is support for fascism. There are a lot of people getting hurt and dieing abroad who didn't have the choice to vote in our elections, and I judge anyone saying that by not voting they are not at fault for what their vote might have prevented.

How long do you keep your backups?
Reply in thread
Comparing daily snapshots I see 100mb+ daily churn (I assume restic diff is pre compression), the borgbase repository space usage chart shows it increasing about 50mb daily.

Reply in thread
I'm not doing any sort of backup conversion. Borgbase is a website that focuses on hosting borg backups, but they also natively support restic. I chose restic out of convenience for my local backups because it came preinstalled on truenas and figured it made sense to use the same for my cloud backups.

How AI text watermarking works: a visual guide
Assuming a checker tool is public it's enough for a teacher to verify classwork, but AI providers having the sole ability to identify generated content with no way to independently verify is not a real solution.
Plus this site advertises a tool to remove this watermarking, so it can't be that hard to scrub out if you're aware of it.

Republicans are honest fascists. Democrats are fascists in disguise.
"Both sides are the same but the dems are worse" - said by nobody who is paying attention. There is a reason 'both sides' is exclusively weaponized towards one party and not the other.

Still doesn't make both parties the same. People saying they're the same are trying to convince you not to vote, which consistently benefits one party and absolutely does not move our government to the left.

Probably the same as on a Linux desktop now, the browser sites work fine but you won't get 4k or HDR.

Wine 11.6 is an exciting release to make modding Windows games on Linux simpler
If this does mean WINEDLLOVERRIDES won't be needed I'll be very happy, it's been very fiddly trying to get optiscaler working.

The same goes for anywhere an establishment dem beat the more left candidate in the primary. Maga republicans cannot be allowed to win or hold seats, and that means supporting whoever wins the primary against them.

JD Vance Trivializes Jewish History by Referring to ICE Criticism as 'Blood Libel' — But Reveals What this Admin Thinks of Jews
I wonder if this is the start of another effort to defuse a term by throwing it at everything until the definition gets dulled down to 'something I don't like'.

Cool to see how quickly this progressed! I really hope the dream of LEGO Island on the Wii does happen.

makeMKV gone? - Is there a plan B?
Not sure about the AUR, but the site goes down all the time and the creator has been MIA for months in the past. It's still on flathub and you can download publicly maintained keydbs, so even if the creator and website vanished permanently it'll keep working. If it were to stop working at some point you could probably cobble together a replacement with a few other tools: aaru to dump the disc, something to decrypt the aacs files, and mkvtoolnix to remux.

Not sure if you've seen but Gears 2 got some sort of recomp/port about a week ago. I haven't had a chance to play it too much yet but the tutorial with Carmine worked without a hitch. https://www.moddb.com/mods/gears-of-war-2-hollow

Take a look at their post history and it will make more sense. My guess is they'd rather see America give up and fail already because surely their idealized government will then rise from the ashes.

"Don't vote until they learn how important we are" is how you join the third+ of the country that doesn't vote and is therefore ignored by politicians.
