I wish Klei hadn’t sold out to Tencent.

Highlights

• Low neighborhood opportunity was associated with higher CDKN2A expression.
• CDKN2A is a key marker of cellular senescence and biological aging.
• Associations were strongest for social and economic opportunity.
• Results are consistent with models of socially patterned aging.

This post fails rule 4 as well. Except maybe for the handful of people who have been completely out of touch with world events for the past year.

Never heard of EFF

Congratulations. You’re one of today’s lucky ten thousand. :)

but 0 points for being 10 years late on this very easy and obvious decision.

Once you learn about what the EFF does, and read the post, you’ll (hopefully) understand that this decision was neither easy nor obvious.

I wish Klei hadn’t sold out to Tencent.

I don’t own a google or motorola phone, so now what?

Campaign for your favorite phone manufacturer to make a phone with the features required by GrapheneOS, and when they do, make that your next phone.

Or use something other than GrapheneOS.

If you had read the post, you would know they have good reason for maintaining a presence on toxic platforms.

They recently announced a partnership with Motorola Mobility (a subsidiary of China’s Lenovo) to offer it on a non-Google phone. Is this what you had in mind?

Seems like they could be experimenting with an LLM to improve server-side anti-cheat.

Unfortunately, some misguided (or possibly malicious) people collect email forwarding domains like these and publish them in lists dishonestly advertised as spam or disposable address lists. An unfortunate number of service developers have taken to using these lists, leading to the situation you’re in now.

The best suggestions I can offer:

• Complain to the administrators of each site that does this, making sure to explain why it’s a problem. There’s a chance that some of them honestly don’t realize that legitimate forwarding domains are being swept up into a dragnet intended for spammers, and might stop using those lists if they were made aware.
• When choosing a forwarding service, pick one offering domain names that haven’t been picked up by the blacklists. This might require non-default settings when creating a forwarding address, or paying for access to the more obscure domains.

Thanks for posting this. I’ve been keeping MX Linux in the back of my mind as a possible Debian alternative if I ever need one.

they aren’t letting me post this testimonial in the MX forum because it doesn’t accept anon-aliased emails for logins.

Ouch. That’s a red flag for me, since it forces people to expose themselves to spam and tracking if they want to participate in the community. Which alias service did they reject? Maybe there’s one that doesn’t trigger their rule?

I mean, pretty much every desktop environment that’s not Gnome or KDE has been dragging its feet.

To be fair, migrating a desktop environment from X11 to Wayland is a lot of work, Wayland still hasn’t reached feature parity, and most desktop environments are maintained by very few people with scant resources. It’s no surprise that the big ones are ahead of the others.

That laughably understates the RAM required for Windows to be useful.

the Linux ecosystem that’s currently driving away developers in droves with fragmentation to consider that.

I am very skeptical of this. Exactly which developers are being driven away “in droves” because of packaging system differences? If you want to make a case for that assertion, you’re going to have to identify them, so they can be counted.

If it turns out that there are many developers who think like this, someone ought to let them know that they don’t have to package open-source software for every distro out there in order to reach all the major distros. Just package it for one, or even none, and let package maintainers do their thing.

Or, are you talking about proprietary software? That would be a different discussion.

Note that “rather undermines” does not mean “completely negates”. In any case…

30% less range for 60% less cost always makes economic sense.

Be sure to let everyone know when this new mix sells for 60% less than the current mix.

Ethanol does not prematurely dissolve seals and hoses on any car made in the last 30 years,

As far as I can tell, it’s closer to 25 years. Be sure to let everyone with an older car know when you plan to buy them an upgrade.

I get that Americans can’t do simple math,

Lots of assumption and rudeness in your comment. Please learn to be better. Goodbye.

The concern for most people is not the range of a gas tank. It’s about the fact that they’ll have to fill the tank more often, which means paying more often to travel the same distance, which rather undermines the claim of lowering the cost.

The price per mile matters more than the price per gallon.

And then there’s the additional cost of repairs when the ethanol prematurely dissolves your car’s seals and hoses.

Well, you could do this yourself too…

No, but you and someone else could collaborate to do something like it, if both of you had sufficient skill in this area.

And, importantly, it would require a great deal more time and effort.

The current laws are tuned to cost, benefit, difficulty, and volume assumptions that are made outdated by LLMs.

It seems like at worst it would be an os reinstall

It depends. Some malware would not be removed by an OS reinstall.
