lol, but his racist base probably doesn’t care about black peoples jobs and the statement is degrading versus black voters. not sure how this is supposed to help him. it’s a lose/lose situation.

Windows, macOS and a ton of other Linux distros do that as well.

First of all, windows and macOS are not for free. They cost extra money, sometimes hidden in the PC cost when pre-installed. When they do a major update, like Win10 to 11, you are at their mercy, if your license can be used to upgrade. Often it can, but sometimes your PC is not “Windows 11 ready” or so and then you get updates for your old system for a few more years until they drop you like a hot potato and throw you to the malware wolves.

Additionally, in Windows the automatic updates are just for the OS itself and some apps from its store. A few apps like Chrome and FF install their own extra update service on top. A lot of other programs check for updates individually or some not at all and often you have to download and run their installer for every update. Idk how it is in macOS tho. Haven’t used it in years.

Yes, a ton of other Linux distros also have background unattended-upgrade or similar. However, the people who choose Ubuntu over those are usually looking for a quick solution that almost always just installs without problems. They usyally don’t have time or patience for any complications, however small. So they choose the fire-and-forget Linux and additionally have greater chances to find a fix or help in the super rare case it doesn’t work, because the bigger user base increases the likelyhood someone else is familiar or has infos regarding that exotic issue.

it’s kinda the fire-and-forget of OSes. you just press the update/upgrade button when the unattended-upgrade didn’t catch all and it just works for free and forever.

right after a sattelite broke into space debris and the ISS crew had to go into their ships for safety? a lot going on up there

Slashdot: ISS Astronauts Take Shelter In Boeing Starliner After Satellite Breakup

i used symlinks first, but they break when you rename target files or directories.

as long as it’s one file system, hard links work better for me. so one day i replaced them all with hard links.

maybe koreader has an error and that causes the autologin session to end and you go to login.

another problem could be another login thingy started first and greetd can’t use the tty. check inittab

I agree, but agile and scrum are not meant to be followed to the letter no matter what. So people are doing it right if they notice some part of the process should be changed to make it work for them.

i have different directories named after moods/styles filled with hard links to my music. works better than playlists for me

Don’t worry, US Americans. You’re among friends.

You can always boot from a live medium, chroot into it and fix stuff, e.g. a live USB or CD/DVD. They can be created from Windows.

it was actually meant as a witty joke, but it’s maybe a bit too hard to get. idc

it doesn’t matter. no prisoner should be starved or tortured. no matter what they are in for.

i have a loooong list of things i’d expect in exchange. (freedom for uighurs, no harrassing neighbour regions/countries, stop cyberattacks, no supporting russia, etc. etc.)

that’s nice and all, but if you have more than 10 million i feel that doesn’t make sense any more.

there’s a base n joke somewhere in there

well, maybe then do non-IT for a while
