My laptop for home use is almost 15 years old. My desktop is almost 11 years old. My work laptop is 8 years old. Here they are talking about more modern and powerful equipment, defining them as obsolete. I don't know, maybe we should start questioning if these consumption dynamics are a bit harmful.

For decades, there have been joint ventures and significant investments by large European fortunes in China. They took the money and set up businesses there because it is more profitable for them. Now they are selling us a manipulated narrative to make us believe that it is something alien to them. We must not be fooled.

Could be. Stopping working for the system, with massive strikes. There is nothing they fear more. But they will exercise violence first, have no doubt. They are the lords and masters of violence. With violence they have the upper hand. A difficult situation to manage.

The most reasonable thing to do is to cite the original publication and its author.

Different effects depending on the antidepressant. https://www.drugs.com/...

Avoiding alcohol is a good idea, especially when taking any type of medication.

I'm not clear, has access to the code been denied or only access to other types of resources hosted on WordPress servers?

I repeat a word and a phrase, but without oralizing them. I think them to myself repeatedly, especially in the mornings, when I get up, when I go to breakfast, and when I am nervous.

Would that be echolalia too?

The motherboard can be cleaned with a generous amount of isopropyl alcohol. It cleans slightly corroded areas, displaces water, is not a good conductor of electricity and evaporates easily.

The choices of developers or the corporations that enslave developers? It's not the same.

A suggestion for book lovers. https://bookwyrm.social/about Bookwyrm is a part of the Fediverse that you might like.

How about doing a little DIY, removing the 16-pin connector and crimping two 8-pin connectors? Or, perhaps, connect a 16 to 8 pin adapter.

Literally.

This approach of blaming renewables is the typical one that the press is spreading, without clarifying ALL the aspects that make some renewable energy generation facilities inflexible.

Antonio Turiel explains very well what has happened and, in fact, some time before the blackout, in view of important alterations in frequency and voltage, he had already warned that this could happen.

In the new installations, according to the new regulations, photovoltaic plants must have systems to have a reaction margin in case of fluctuations. But in older plants this was not mandatory and, in order to give flexibility to the system, as has been commented here, it is necessary to have a reserve of other generation sources.

At the time of the blackout, there were many photovoltaic plants without response capacity and the necessary plants, especially gas plants, were not prepared to respond to the disturbance.

This was a combination of greed and incompetence. Greed for wanting to save money by disconnecting gas plants or for not updating the technology in photovoltaic plants. Incompetence on the part of government and regulators to put in place the necessary means to force corporations to take the necessary measures to avoid what has happened.

Since there only are tools for filter or arrange contents, nor complex algorithms suggesting contents, this kind of functions are not implemented.

Perhaps someday some finer filtering by community or some way to limit the number of posts from each community will be implemented.

But I don't think it's a priority for developers at this time.

Yes, but I guess what is limited is access to those resources from a site running on WP Engine servers. I also assume that users can download the themes from outside WP Engine and install them anyway.

The Subversion repositories with the code are also public. Anyone can use them. There is no restriction of freedom by restricting access to such a repository, if the code is still publicly available.

This way WP Engine still has the opportunity to mount its plugin and theme repositories, without taking abusive advantage of the WordPress repository infrastructure.

There is work, energy consumption and so on behind it. Expenses that WP Engine is not taking on and does not even want to compensate for.

Automattic's reaction may seem like overkill, but it's a clear and forceful wake-up call to companies that are out to parasite their work and infrastructure. They do it because they have a privileged position. I think they are right to do so.

This does not mean that somebody could criticize a possible lack of consistency when Automattic is the company that adopts abusive attitudes towards third parties.

Thank you.

Without it, it would be of little use. But, unfortunately, even with it, we also have little guarantee that someone will reuse the code without re-sharing it.

The FSF has clear guidelines and follows them rigorously, nothing else. It's good that they don't make exceptions. Any problem with microcode or other proprietary drivers starts with the fact that they are not free. Making exceptions would partially solve the problem, but the situation would not change significantly, and the FSF would then be violating its own principles.

The FSF's job in this regard is to try to open debate about the problems of not having free security patches and, in any case, to try to uncover hidden vulnerabilities in proprietary tools and facilitate the creation of free tools that solve the problems.
