Give it a try! Browsing the internet is lightning fast, and for pages that need Javascript I just load them in my other browser (Ecosia)

The internet has come full circle!

There used to be a game in the 90’s where you punch Bill Gates in the face.

Like this:

Ha, I never knew this had an actual name.

I thought it was known as talking to a brick wall, ie. if you have a issue talk to a brick wall and you’ll get the answer

Same thing but put slightly differently: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4K5fbQ1-zps

Wild! Those are the two names I chose too!!

So just to help a little bit without getting too technical…

df -h is your friend to find out which physical drive or partition relates to which directory (called the “mount point”)

If you want, you can set up each drive/partition to be mounted a bit Windows-esque.

For example:

• Drive 1, partition 1 will almost certainly be root /
• But drive 1, partition 2 can be mounted to: /mnt/d/
• And then drive 1, partition 3 can be mounted to: /mnt/e/

And so on.

You’ll need to look up fstab to understand how to do that.

I understand it’s tricky to get your head around initially as I felt exactly the same coming from Windows to Linux.

Once you get your head around partitions being able to be mounted anywhere, it actually becomes really handy

new funding for a confidential service to provide prevention therapy to potential offenders before they commit that horrid act against a child.

THIS.

I would recommend watching “Louis Theroux - Among the sex offenders” to get a better understanding of the lack of treatment available for people who don’t want to offend but feel compelled. Some of them are crying out for treatment!

Not yet! But you can make a difference to that… https://yacy.net/

From the article / post: " The soldier who fired the shots describes entering the home and encountering only one unarmed Palestinian, gesturing and saying, ‘No, no.’ "

He openly admits to shooting an unarmed Palestinian man.

Ohh, I see! Thanks for replying. I often forget about ChatGPT as an alternative

Honest question: what happened to Stack Overflow? I still get answers from it. Have I missed some incident??

I would really recommend the documentary Navalny:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Navalny_(film)

I knew almost nothing about the guy prior to watching it, and what happens to him is fascinating. He’s not perfect but I do believe what he says and he really wanted a better Russia. The balls on this guy!!

I mean I’m not sure what you can do other than name and shame the restaurant, and/or boycott it

Thanks for sending these over.

I completely agree by the way that we should not condemn an entire population because of their government!

Honest question: can you send over a source or sources for that?

I used to find these kind of stories funny, but these days I just wonder how desperate must someone be to do this.
What’s going on in their life that they’ve ended up doing this and their next stop is prison?

Or Tuta(nota) https://tuta.com are good!

I know it’s not 100% the same, but there’s a website that gives you access to insecure webcams and has been for ages!

http://www.insecam.org/

Obviously these aren’t hacked as per the article

One thing I would add is that the Russian people do want change but any attempt at changing the leadership is met with poisoning and/or long prison sentences. I would highly recommend reading about Alexei Navalny or watching the fascinating documentary

You get a phone call from someone claiming to be from 23andme but they’re not…

Hi it’s Jim from 23andme.
Just going through security with you. You did a test with us on the 5th Dec, your mother is X and your father is Y.
Ok that confirms who I am.
So as I said it’s Jim and in your results we see you have a genetic condition which means you will have early onset dementia.
We offer a preventative treatment. Want to enrol in the trial? It’s $200.

Not the best example I admit but an example of how that data could be misused and you’ve just paid “Jim” $200
