This is why nobody use conscripts, imagine an army that is all cops.
Ok do you understand what an analogue is?
Perhaps Lemmy needs a "translate to simple English feature for you"
It's an apt comparison, there aren't many examples so on the nose about deliberately destabilizing secular groups and Islamist groups filling the power vacuum, only to become a more violent threat.
If you want you could compare it to the allied powers starving the Spanish Republic of resources, enabling the rise of the Nazis, but it's a bit of a stretch.
Also Hamas was empowered by the Israeli state by the distruction of secular opposition.
Not disimilar to how the US armed the Taliban & created a power vacuum for them to fill
You ever wonder what it would be like if you had self-esteem & were proud of your values instead of complaining about others having virtues?
I dunno EDM sucks.
As does confining millions to an open air prison
As does Israel creating Hamas
As does the current Israeli government ignoring intelligence reports because they wanted this to happen.
If Israel don't like Hamas they shouldn't have created them
flatpaks are all updated at once, just like distro packages, so yeah you might need to commands, but that's still very different to having each application update itself (and the security hell implied by that)
Also I think pkcon can manage your updates across various backends (unless you are on Arch, where I think there are both technical & ideological objections to having a simple tool that just works)
Good thing I've watched that video, twice then!
It could even tell me what 1312 means, after I told it it was a number substitution cypher
But the only thing it's actually good at is generating languages, if they try and pretend to know stuff in fields, they're quickly exposed as frauds.
Nah GPT makes it a lot easier, it's the thing it's actually good at.
Before they were autogenerated with bad English, GPT can generate good English that is equally devoid of content
This is the result of alienation from your labor that capitalism excells at, get hobbies or start organizing as a way to break out of it.
We don't need to change the entire god damn system to be useful, but at least building towards it is infinitely more rewarding than doing nothing IMO
It's not pure greed though, if companies do not push down costs & push up revenues enough, they get replaced by those that do.
It is capitalism doing what it does "best", here's a clip from I'm A Virgo that explains it better than me: https://youtu.be/lpagmvYZKRc?t=84
There are niches where companies can hide out for a while, especially if they provide a service that needs local implementation, but social media isn't one of those niches, if you get outcompeted, your toast, no matter how big you peak, MySpace, Tumbler, Digg, Slashdot, etc, this is the monopolization effect of markets.
Part of it is the standard crisis of capitalism, the profit you get from doing the same thing always declines, so over time you have to push up revenue (increasing prices, forcing people to pay, showing more ads, gathering more data, etc) & push down costs (fire engineers, run on less hardware, etc)
Part of it is capitalisms natural tendency to create monopolies, and the lack of competition in a given field causing the company to then lose sight of what it's good at to compete in a bigger field.
Part is that interest rates mean loans are no longer cheap, so taking on debt to get customer, to at some point down the line make money, is a less viable plan. Twitter is a special case where the bad loans are because that was the original deal not interested rate related, and Musk is trying to pull all of the enshitification levers at the same time.
Part is that CEOs generally don't have a fucking clue about their products or what they are doing (it's a circuit job about who you know/blow, not what you know), so once one CEO starts firing/enshitifying, the rest just copy them so as to not be left out.
Funny how we addressed the tool that helped black kids first, rather than the one that hurt them.
Maybe it's because this is being pushed by bad people, that you seem to agree with under some fantasy of "100% merit based" reality.
Systemic biases exist, AA compensated for them banking AA is basically pretending this nation isn't racist AF.
But asking them who their father is is fine?
If people gave a shit about fairness they'd care about legacy admission more than affirmative action.
Respectfully: Fuck that.
If you want to find the best instant rice recommendations on Lemmy, Lemmy should have a functional post search function, rather than me relying on a malevolent corporate entity like google to index all the content.
Search has gone to shit as the Internet has embraced social media sites, an upside of this is that wikipedia+Lemmy+key word search, mayas accurate as asking Google Bard or bing, and they can be built on entirety open tech.
I don't think that many companies have their shit together well enough to mirror the source code, besides the RHEL repos aren't small, so that'll cost.
The companies I've helped either had a minimalist mirror to reduce the surface area of what was installable or to save on cost.
It's possible that a few enterprises do a full mirror of all RHEL sources, but i doubt it's many
