Because they worry about any other weapon? Or the extremely rare case that someone actually has a highly dangerous fire arm? My point is that they can have much less drastic standard procedures (and equipment), because the standard scenario of operation is significantly less threatening.

There are special forces that get involved with the real shit. But the bar for real shit here is someone has any gun.

He probably wasn’t arrested. It sounds like the police handcuffed him while checking whether he was indeed alone and then asked about what he was doing at his computer. After he explained, they asked him to turn off the stream, at which point I would assume he was freed again.

I assume they went on to explain the situation and then questioned him. If there is no evidence of any crime, they will just take his personals so they can contact him on any development. He is the victim of a crime after all.

Isn’t it amazing how you can “SWAT” (from the looks of it that weren’t special forces btw.) someone by knocking on the door, instead of blasting through it and charging in, ready to shoot anything that moves?

That’s something you can do if you don’t have to be afraid of shotguns and full-auto rifles when going into random people’s houses.

There is hard evidence these checks prevent crime (i.e. smuggling and human trafficking), as well as evasion of judicial measures. So, since these checks will not just go away in the foreseeable future, he needs to provide a better alternative.

Edit: I don’t really get Denmark and Benelux tho. I doubt there is that much going on via these borders, but maybe I’m mistaken? I can see smuggling over their ports could be a problem, but that could be resolved by tightening security there instead of at the borders.

Casual reminder that Politico is owned by Spring SE, which makes it inherently unreliable since it’s held and led by (very) few ultra rich people.

tldr: Linux can have driver issues and programs or updates might not work as expected. So anything you can expect from any major OS.

(This is also used for Plasma’s performance profiles, not just GNOME’s)

Eh, in terms of UI and shortcuts, Plasma is very close. If you sit a Windows poweruser in front of Plasma, I’m quite confident they will feel right at home.

That’s actually how I got introduced to Linux. Then I discovered the Settings app. Fast forward: EndeavourOS btw.

There’s a solution for that tho: Tags. If you have sane (default) tags, you type ‘terminal’ and konsole pops up. And I feel like KDE mostly has that.

You should almost always use amd_pstate=guided/active on anything newer than Zen 2, although Arch Wiki says active is the default since kernel 6.5. Even if it doesn’t seem to fix the problem, it’s the preferred way to run those CPUs (if it works). guided + conservative scaling governor might help. Maybe it’s just a reporting bug tho, wouldn’t be a first for AMD.

I find it kinda sad that KDE is attempting to stop it’s series of K-puns. I suspect that some app names are/were intentionally bad. Like Kcalc instead of Kalculator? Kome on…

Yeah, I posted this because the headline got me confused.

I knew 5 out of 6 of their neighbours, but I didn’t know about Burkina Faso, not even under their old name. I’m afraid to find out how many more African countries I’m missing.

For everyone who also had no idea this country exists:

Burkina Faso is a landlocked country in West Africa. It covers an area of 274,223 km2 (105,878 sq mi), bordered by Mali to the northwest, Niger to the northeast, Benin to the southeast, Togo and Ghana to the south, and Ivory Coast to the southwest. As of 2021, the country had an estimated population of 23,674,480. Previously called the Republic of Upper Volta (1958–1984), it was renamed Burkina Faso by President Thomas Sankara. Its citizens are known as Burkinabè, and its capital and largest city is Ouagadougou.

Bruh, you can’t just submit entirely new data structures as “fixes”, let alone past the merge window.

It should not be hard at all to grasp that.

They are misleading and intentionally so. Either ‘just’ as rage bait or as a genuine attempt at spreading misinformation.

There is a 4 billion budget for aid next year - which is of course excluding EU aid and aid financed via dividends of frozen russian assets.

Where is the media bias fact check bot when you actually need it 😔

I probably should try NixOS, but I’m tempted by BlendOS

You can select GTK themes under:

System Settings > Colors & Themes > Application Style > Configure GNOME/GTK Application Style

For Flatpaks you need to run

pacman -S xdg-desktop-portal xdg-desktop-portal-kde xdg-desktop-portal-gtk

Support is limited tho.

That’s because the topic is so politically and emotionally charged, even the nicest way of addressing it will be met with enough tamper tantrums to make advertisers and other stakeholders at least uncomfortable.

And nobody would want to make rich corpos and rich people owning rich corpos uncomfortable, right?

Gas is objectively much better than coal tho
