The article says the attacker was bald, and later evidence found him to be part of the “antideutsch scene”, “an outgrowth of the German far-left whose rejection of German nationalism has translated into explicit pro-Israel and pro-American views”.
I don’t think that makes him a Nazi. He could be, but the article doesn’t say that, or that he’s a skinhead,
1·10 days ago“e” is the most common letter in most Germanic languages like English, and also in some Romance languages like French and Spanish, so a layout with the Spacebar and “e” right under the thumbs could be great.
I’ve seen vertical keyboards where you don’t have to pronate your hands, e.g. the Dactyl TypeSafe. See also Effects of a vertical keyboard design on typing performance, user comfort and muscle tension (2007).
“If you have a suggestion for a specific legend or keyboard layout, please let us know” https://taiko.taikohub.com/
Know of any good layouts with an “e” under one of the thumb clusters?
I might have missed it on the site, but are there advantages to the mostly horizontal design, compared to more vertical ones? Is horizontal easier on thumbs, and to make it easier to see the caps?
3·12 days agoDoes uncertainty or our inability to predict it, mean we can will it? How are we outside how everything else in the universe works? Are our brains magical? Do we have souls?
“On my go. 3, 2, 1, go.”
Free will can only exist if we had the supernatural ability to change the past. This idea is something lots of people really don’t like, so they come up with all sorts of ways to magic their way out of it like thinking the supernatural is real, rejecting the scientific method, and/or inconsistent ideas like compatibilism.
And Alma started at 8.3 because that was the version of RHEL it was based on, which started at 2.1 (but not because of RL, which was then at 6.1.92).
For me apps are things that are fullscreen-only (on phones, Windows 8 apps, GNOME 3+), while programs are small CLI things or complex ones with discoverable GUIs where you have more control over the UI and placement.
I don’t use tiling window systems - would they by the above definition make programs something in-between?
3·13 days ago“Many were bound for China and India, carrying Iranian oil products, and chasing them down could complicate relations between the US and the importing nations.”
Those are 2 countries I don’t think would react well to the USA blockading oil imports. They’re not Cuba.
I feel sorry for the people of Iran, Cuba, and China for living under dictatorships, but it’s getting difficult to feel sorry for the citizens of India and the USA considering the psycopaths they actually keep voting for.
“for users that just wants to have a system that works without the need to use terminal or being afraid of destroying system files”
Wouldn’t such users want a distro they can trust because people they trust have checked it to be safe? No Wikipedia article yet, no ratings or reviews on distrowatch. Why would a normal user trust a distro who’s 1st preview was announced less than a year ago? Shouldn’t the distro be targeting tinkers and super users, so they can give a thumbs up or down for the normal users?
I trust Debian even tho I don’t have that much confidence in people who think GNOME is a good default UI. I dislike Ubuntu for many reasons, but lots of people vastly smarter than me have looked at their code for more than 20 years now.
They’re probably more instinctual than animals that learned to avoid cars/trucks, so it would take very long for them to evolve instincts to run away from fast-vehicle noises.
I think Anthropogenic climate change will make them or vehicle drivers extinct, before that happens tho.

Isn’t the problem with this that there are different communities which might have valid reasons to post very similar things, and the order they’re displayed to you may result in you downvoting the original?
It wants to run cross-site scripts on more than 20 other domains.
111·19 days agoAdding some sources, in case people think these quotes are satirical.
Edits: some longer quotes (which takes away from the punchy format by Linken) and non-chronological groupings.

9·19 days ago- Making people opt-out of AI in Preferences, AI Controls (and using a double negative there), instead of having people install the AI stuff as extensions.
- Not recommending uBlock Origin at about:addons
- Having “Search for text when your start typing” disabled in Preferences, General, Browsing.
- Making people opt-out of all the garbage ads in Preferences, Home.
- Making people opt-out of “Show search terms in the address bar on results pages” in Preferences, Search. Jesus fucking Christ, UX rules 1-4 are do no mess with links, Back, Forward, or the address bar.
- Not including the NoAI or the Lite versions of DuckDuckGo in Preferences, Search.
Anyone know why LibreWolf isn’t in Debian repos? I know there’s a Flatpak, but I don’t know if it can be trusted since mintinstall says it’s by an “Unknown maintainer”.
And why isn’t it extensions?
Who exactly do they think are the 2-4% of people who use Firefox? How big is the intersection of Firefox users, and users who want to use LLMs but don’t want to gargle Microsoft AI or Gemini integrated Chrome?
9·20 days agoFirefox +uBlock Origin works on old Androids. I’m not sure about new versions, iOS, or other phone OSes tho.
I don’t think I could go back to using browsers with ads, or videos with sponsors.
