Might be easier to come up with a specific name for installing something from Google. "Google loading" maybe.

The we just go back to "installing".

The combination of not giving kids independence then complaining how teens and young adults are dependant on their parents is diabolical.

I often look at the independence that kids and teens are given in other countries and wish that I could have been given that sort of a childhood. I seriously think I wouldn't be as socially inept as I am today if I had that.

However.. ive read the associated analysis of the California bill that reads directly on legislative intent:

quoting he Cali Senate Judiciary Committee analysis : file:///home/jspaleta/Downloads/202520260AB1043_Senate%20Judiciary.pdf

Why are we listening to a person who tried to link a file directly from their downloads folder?

Also the original post that the article is referencing on the fedora forums is suggesting that we remove all networking support from baseline linux as some way to comply/circumvent the law.

I'm sorry, but I just can't take anything said in that forum post seriously.

I can get behind a delay to enable side loading and the warning screens are nothing to me since I can just click past them. Though the delay should be more like 30-60 minutes at the most.

The real problem is requiring devs (even outside of the play store) to identify themselves. That is ridiculous and does absolutely nothing to secure the device for the user. (It only secures it under Google for their interests)

Is it the bright headlights or the abundance of trucks raised so high that the headlights beam directly into your eyeballs...

Both. It's both.

Stop, if we observe their gender then we collapse the wave form into a single gender.

Schrodinger's gender.

There are a couple of things you can do. If it is frozen then try pressing ctrl+alt+1/2/3/4 to swith to a different terminal this will let you either restart your DE or reboot the system safely.

As far as debugging it I would typically start with looking at journal logs journalctl -b-1 should show you logs from the last boot.

So if you are a passing trans woman you either:

A. Risk retribution from the law and use the women's bathroom.

Or

B. Follow the law and get called out for being a women in the men's bathroom.

This law really just criminalizes using the bathroom if you are not 100% heteronormative.

Might as well just go back to poodle skirts and khakis.

50% seems very low. They created these companies by scraping and pirating information.

50% means that they just need to fool a few people to get what they want. Imo it should be more like 90% public with a requirement that all services must be provided for free.

I am going to put in little shop of horrors since it is a musical. And I really would not consider it horror.

For those of you that don't know there are actually 2 versions of this movie. The original release version where the plants lose and the ORIGINAL test audience version where the plants win.

Sounds pretty funny. Can't wait to see what is hosted there.

I would guess either 50-50 it is a meme site or pron. No in between.

Someone please correct me if I am wrong. The article does not say where this is happening.

AFAIK these might be illegal in the US but only by technicality since we have laws against flashing lights. Especially ones that could be mistaken for police lights. (yes I know they are box trucks not police cars. But while you are driving and just see the lights in your mirrors you might mistake it for police).

So, based on your argument, airlines should be able to form monopolies? You don't need to fly anywhere.

Automakers? You aren't required to drive anywhere. Just use uber/lyft/walk.

You are right, lower class people don't deserve entertainment. /s

Antitrust laws exist for a reason.

This might help in the future in case you setup a remote mount for backups in the future. Look into using systemd's automount feature. If the mount suddenly fails then it will instead create an unwritable directory in its place. This prevents your rsync from erroneously writing data to your root partition instead.

Can't wait for adverts for the ass blaster 9000® to be beamed directly into my frontal lobe without my consent.

"lawyers" can't bring charges for this law. Only the AG. If people don't like what the AG is doing then they can just start a recall election.

If you are really disturbed by the admins of these two instances not allowing conspiracy theory comms then you always have the option of creating your own instance without this restriction.

You are right that operating system is not defined. But the definition of operating system provider is this: "(g) “Operating system provider” means a person or entity that develops, licenses, or controls the operating system software on a computer, mobile device, or any other general purpose computing device." (emphasis mine)

Which should clearly exclude embedded devices.

I feel like most casual users would not make the connection of "crawlers" to link previews that they talk about it the article.

Sure, if you understand that robots.txt includes all robots then sure. But that is not how general news media has been talking about robots.txt.

It would still affect Apple, Microsoft, and Google.
