Radioactive Butthole

If the keys have been lost then so has Satoshi. Otherwise any random idiot can say they’re satoshi. Sucks to suck.

Then it would be trivial to sign a message using his known wallet address that could be cryptographicly verified. But he is lying so he can’t.

NOOOOOOOO HE DIDNT CANCEL ALL DEBT EVERYWHERE IN THE WORLD LITERALLY NAZIS NOOOOOOOOOOO thanks obummer

Yeah but sometimes the only producers are QAMEQHEJAK and you can’t even find what real brand sells your thing. Or sometimes they don’t do direct sales.

I was talking to my cousin (journalist) a while ago and she told me how she was supposed to interview a whistleblower for Anaheim PD. I snarkily commented something like, “yeah but let me guess he shot himself twice in the back of the head” and she alarmingly said “…yeah, how did you know?”

I think it depends. If your mortgage payment is $1000 and you’re renting the space for $500 then you and your tenant are both sharing the financial burden, and I don’t really see it as parasitism like lots of other people.

If you’re renting for $1,200 then yeah everyone is going to hate you, no matter how few tenants you have. Even more so if that’s your only source of income. Why should someone else be living your paycheck to your paycheck?

The selling point is that it is immutable, not that it uses snaps (which it does). Fedora does the same thing with Silverblue and IoT. You don’t install rpms, you install flatpaks. You can install rpms, but you’re not really meant to.

Since Canonical refuses to get onboard with flatpak (for now) they use snaps instead of debs, but snaps aren’t the direct appeal.

The whole idea is that you have a core system in a known configuration. Updating the system just means using a different image. If an update fails, then you just roll back to the last good configuration. Bazzite uses this to nice effect too.

There are a lot of advantages to end users and enterprise admins with systems in this configuration.

The universe was formed by the collapse of a massive star. Our massive stars make new universes. The cycle continues forever.

As best I can tell, no such thing happened. Feel free to provide some credible sources to back that up though.

Can’t put the genie back in the bottle. Would probably be a different story if China released this years ago.

There’s lots of examples. Mir, Unity, Snap, PPAs, and more.

I think Ubuntu Core is a bad example. Immutable distros is where the industry is headed for a lot of good reasons, and it makes sense for Canonical to jump on that train. Snaps are bad (although honestly I do like that they can package server apps unlike flatpak, that’s cool), but the concept for the distro is not.

What a weird thing to say. Do you know what they mean? Because it sounds like you don’t.

prosecute: To initiate or conduct a criminal case against.

convict: To find or prove (someone) guilty of an offense or crime, especially by the verdict of a court.

Human laws are not like… immutable laws of nature. Only a jury can decide if he’s guilty or not, and they can just… say he isn’t.

Use both! You can switch between them when you log in. Find what you like.

I enjoy gnome but that isn’t everyone’s cup of tea.

This is the power of Linux. Not that it gives you a nice configuration (it does) but it gives you the power of choice and control over your own device.

Don’t call them that. They’re just assholes with too much money.

I call them the billionaire class. It has the added bonus that it makes it painfully obvious to suburbanites that they aren’t part of the club.

Prosecuted? Yes. Convicted? No.

I don’t really have any experience with enterprise Ubuntu (we use RHEL at work and I’m not a sysadmin anyway) but its kind of hard to blame that all on Canonical since they inherited it from debian.

I mean, I’m sure you could change the package format that your nascent distro uses, but at that point you might as well make a completely new, unforked distro since you’re basically rewriting the entire system.

There’s nothing bad about Ubuntu, but Canonical rips a fat line and says, “I’m going to make my own display server, with black jack, and hookers!” Which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, innovation is good and all, but they release a steaming pile of crap that doesn’t really integrate well into the rest of the Linux ecosystem. They spend years telling everyone that their display server is the best thing ever and no they won’t offer any alternatives or integrate it into any of your systems thank you very much.

Then 10 years later they unceremoniously dump it in favor for whatever everyone else has been using.

I just wish they would funnel all that innovation upstream instead so everyone benefitted instead of just Canonicals bottom line.

Its theft like every other pump and dump
