Have you seen how heavily he’s being astroturfed since about 6 to 9 months ago? It’s practically guaranteed at this point.

And this is why the Democrat Party will continue losing elections when it really counts. He is 1000% more of the same of what got us Donald Motherfucking Trump not once but twice.

After researching this stuff I will be watching Kaidan with interest and may eventually test it with Cheogram / JMP

ahh okay, I’m already using a newer version, so my acceptance of the Gnomification is “priced in” so to speak.

I did however put in a calendar event repeating every 6 months to check in on Kaidan and see how they’re doing, and once it’s far enough along, I’ll switch and start contributing bug reports and such.

Dino was Gnomed from the very start. Probably not the greatest choice for anyone who dislikes Gnome UX, the problem is there aren’t a lot of fully baked alternatives.

I ruffled feathers of Gnome cultists when I ranted about Pinta getting Gnomed. Severe UX enshittification of a formerly decent app.

Oh god dammit. Which version did this happen in?

Unfortunately for Linux it seems the non-GTK alternatives are either not as far along, or run in the browser.

Gajim is a daily driver for me, Kaidan isn’t far enough along, and Dino is even more Gnomed from the get-go.

Also there are some good 5825U boxes out there, but it’s still more oomph than you need for seeding.

I don’t know how to do this on AMD boxes but there are tools out there to adjust CPU power limits without undervolting, it uses the chip’s built-in ability to throttle itself. I’ve had to do the reverse on a Dell which limits itself to 0.8GHz on any non-genuine™ power adapter, but in that case I limited the (Intel) CPU’s PL2 (long-term power limit) to 25W rather than its spec 35W to save power. It thus keeps itself throttled below 25W consumption by the CPU.

I’m sorry I can’t be more helpful with names of tools to try, but I just packed up all my gear to head across town, I’ll try to come back and drop some URLs later. I have a little 5750GE box so I’m interested in whatever the solution turns out to be.

[Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu welcomed the decision, saying that “the state of Israel must pursue its enemies, not its heroic fighters.”

The now-dismissed indictment against the soldiers accused them of an assault that included dragging a Palestinian prisoner along the floor, stepping on him, tasering him, and sexually assaulting him by stabbing him in the rectum. The Palestinian was taken to an Israeli hospital with fractured ribs and a perforated rectum that required surgery before he was returned to the prison.

The allegations of abuse at the facility gained steam when, in August 2024, Israeli news broadcast a leaked video of the alleged assault.

From the AP article:

Israel’s military on Thursday said it was dropping charges against five soldiers accused of beating and sexually abusing a Palestinian detainee in an alleged assault partially caught on camera.

[…] The now-dismissed indictment against the soldiers accused them of an assault that included dragging a Palestinian prisoner along the floor, stepping on him, tasering him, and sexually assaulting him by stabbing him in the rectum. The Palestinian was taken to an Israeli hospital with fractured ribs and a perforated rectum that required surgery before he was returned to the prison.

[…] In its Thursday decision dismissing the case, the military’s top legal officers said the charges against the soldiers were being dropped because the video did not show abuse violent enough to merit a criminal conviction and had been improperly leaked to the media.

And, of course:

Netanyahu welcomed the decision, saying that “the state of Israel must pursue its enemies, not its heroic fighters.”

Bets on whether this will invoke a hacktivist response?

Satire. However, there is an ongoing controversy in at least one open-source project which was slop-rewritten to switch from LGPL to MIT.

But apart from a 40 per cent rise in the price of oil since February 28, global markets have been remarkably calm since the US and Israel attacked Iran,

A few weeks ago I went on a wiki dive about some pedo shit that happened in broad daylight in the USA in the 1970s and was only solved after it got so fucking egregious the cops could no longer ignore it / write off all the dead kids as “runaways” and not investigate, and holy mother of jebus I can see why some people would believe in shit like Pizzagate after reading about shit that literally did happen in this country in living memory.

Start point: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dean_Corll … and this is only the start point, it branches out from there into major conspiracy involving dozens of motherfuckers who mostly got slaps on the wrist if any punishment at all

Nicotine+ has such a weird UI

PhotoGIMP is a godsend.
