Not to mention that even in the 60’s Nixon’s cabinet has stated he specifically started the war on drugs and marijuana in order to imprison black people and anyone against the war.

“We could arrest their leaders. raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news”

Netflix is limited to 720p on Linux due to the DRM they use… maybe OP was confused because of that?

ozymandias117 ,

Not that it’s better, but it’s not new

I did something similar as a kid in the 90’s at a papa johns

ozymandias117 ,

Yeah, just wanted to make sure people knew this wasn’t some new thing. It’s been going on since at least the 90’s, and I’d bet if you found someone older, they’d say it’s been going on longer

In January he said the exact opposite

"If there are no trade barriers established, they will pretty much demolish most other car companies in the world," he said.

pack our plans with value and build out the industry's best 5G network

I’ve generally needed to disable 5G on their network because it was slower than LTE. 5G has only been useful in places they didn’t have coverage before in my experience

As long as they’re happy, it’s perfect

Note that CFS has been replaced by EEVDF since this article was written

Yeah, my calico is super careful to never extend her claws when playing with me, but she will get her claws in her toys and just look at me or flail wildly until it flys away, even with her nails trimmed 😂

Section 1, 1, 3, g, C says
“This section does not: Apply to: A vehicle…”

So, probably not

Chromium has worked on ARM since at least 2014

It’s just that they’re releasing a Windows compiled binary

ozymandias117 ,

Seems like a continuation of the sad state of affairs for ARM chips. Most of the allowed chips are ARM based, and most companies making ARM chips never update their kernels

Part of the confusion around regulation, at least in the US, is that movie studios such as Disney REALLY want to be able to use deepfakes of celebrities

Tbf, I kind of want to know how much zebraforce my car gets now, though

I think you’re being a little naive…

Circumventing parental controls that “couldn’t be circumvented” is what I did as a child that led to me being a computer programmer

ozymandias117 ,

One of the ways I got around my parent’s settings after getting caught by simply resetting their password was by using alternate operating systems on livecds

Saying they literally can’t be bypassed is why I’m saying it’s naive to trust them implicitly

ozymandias117 ,

I only know how to get around my employer’s device settings for iOS. I would have to have access to your phone to try to get around them

The issue I have with your comment is “a child isn’t going to find a way around it” I was much more motivated to find a way around settings my parents set on devices when I was a child, and I definitely shared how to do it with my friends

Maybe your settings are secure, but it’s not trivial for most parents

ozymandias117 ,

Security is really hard, and these operating systems are built with new features and release dates as the primary concerns

If you’re trying to follow proper security practices as of today, ensure the device is up to date and rebooted daily

Use the parental control features as one part of parenting, but don’t expect them to be infallible

Wayland Protocols 1.33 Released With DMA-BUF Stable, Adds Transient Seat Protocol ( www.phoronix.com )

The Linux DMA-BUF protocol for Wayland is widely used these days and supported by multiple compositors for negotiating optimal buffer allocation parameters between clients and compositors. The current fifth version of linux-dmabuf was marked as stable with it working out well and no need for any other changes before removing the...

ION was the only thing supported by hardware manufacturers for many of those years - I’d agree DMA-BUF is the better solution, but switching from ION to DMA-BUF has also broken lots of functionality

It’s good that we can finally use the same protocol from hardware to software

The big selling point of snap was getting packages directly from the developer instead of through maintainers. It’s strange that it’s using the maintainer model without Valve’s support
