1: Probably any non-basic text editor has all these features. Except the tabs, which are not available by default on vim and emacs, but I think KDE's kate (?) and Gnome's gedit might have tabs by default, maybe. All the cool kids use vim or emacs though.

4: Haven't tried but arch wiki says XBox One controllers work by default over USB. I will say that I have seen games not recognizing my (not XBox One) controllers sometimes when not running through steam, but in general the controller situation seems good on Linux.

5: mpv is perfect as it is

7: I know you said GUI but that's a shell one-liner if I've ever seen one.

8: Yes there are Windows-key shortcuts (often called "Super" key on Linux) available for window management. The exact shortcuts depend on the window managers / desktop environment and are usually configurable.

9: Yes most anything works on any distro. For best results though, stick to mainstream distros and don't be fooled by "trendy" distros. Those are not necessarily mainstream, even if you think they are based on what teenagers spam on reddit. If it doesn't have at least a 10 year track record, it's probably a fluke and won't be supported in two years.

Nvidia: Just google whatever your distro + Nvidia, look for the official wiki or whatever, and follow the instructions. It shouldn't be that hard on any distro. Never install the nvidia driver through nvidia's website, that won't work out well. The nvidia driver is system/kernel level software, you cannot install it in a way that isn't specific to your distro without breaking something.

I personally do not like KDE, but you seem like someone who should go with KDE, which has lots GUI knobs and twists, which should suit your tastes. Windows power users tend to love that shit.

Also, for god's sake, try to learn some shell commands, I swear it'll make your switch easier.

Personally, my favoritism distribution is Debian, I would recommend it. RTFM though.

There's some free dns servers which block certain stuff (pretty sure adguard has them, other products are available) which can be set on the router and/or the device itself. This is not very flexible but it's easy to set up.

How is this reasonable, they're traumatizing the kid why exactly? 10 year olds are out on their own all the time in Germany and aren't being chased by police.

Pretty sure that's also from Raymond, who is racists af, see my other comment.

[–] gnuhaut@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago (8 children)

Raymond is so much worse. Since you apparently aren't convinced I pulled some quotes:

CW racism, homophobia, Islamophobia

Black people are stupid and violent:

In the U.S., blacks are 12% of the population but commit 50% of violent crimes; can anyone honestly think this is unconnected to the fact that they average 15 points of IQ lower than the general population? That stupid people are more violent is a fact independent of skin color.

Again:

What's keeping women in general from occupying the vast middle of the programming field is not general intelligence. On the other hand, the average black American has an IQ about 85 and that is pretty much a disqualifier right there. Only the cohort of their bell curve above 3 STDs from median has much hope of matching the capability of the average white programmer.

Police should shoot black men (calls them "males" like they're animals), that's just rational:

Police who react to a random black male behaving suspiciously who might be in the critical age range as though he is an near-imminent lethal threat, are being rational, not racist. They're doing what crime statistics and street-level experience train them to do, and they're right to do it.

Homosexuality and pedophilia are connected:

If the prevalence of homosexuality in the Catholic priesthood is the elephant in the sacristy, the homosexuality/pederasty/pedophilia connection in gay culture is the elephant in the bath-house. No amount of denying it's there is going to make the beast go away.

They hate us for our freedom:

Al-Qaeda would not hate us any less; it is not, at bottom, U.S. policy that enrages them, it is the fact of our wealth and freedom and refusal to submit to the One True Way of Allah.

Muslims are barbarians that need to be civilized by force to prevent the white genocide:

If there's no way short of straight-up imperialism and nation-building all over the Islamic world to prevent a holocaust on American or European soil that would make 9/11 look like a garden party, then that's what we're going to have to do -- civilize the barbarians at the point of a gun.

Nuking civilians is good actually:

The U.S. burned essentially every major Japanese city except Kyoto to the ground with incendiaries during World War Two and then atom-bombed two of them. This seemed to help.

Deliberate cultural genocide is what we need:

How dare I argue that the U.S. has the right to commit deliberate cultural genocide?

There's a big hole in the ground in Manhattan. That's my argument.

[–] gnuhaut@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 week ago (10 children)

Raymond is a fucking fascist.

CW racismHe'd call himself a libertarian, but he's the kind of libertarian that wants to bomb muslims for hating our freedoms and thinks black people are just naturally more criminal because they have the crime gene or something, and no I'm not making this up.


Plus he's one of the "open source" rebrand types, so as not to scare the ~~hoes~~ corporations with too much scary "free software" hippie communism.

If you install (well more like unpack) Firefox from the official binary tarball, that will update itself.

Wait do you reply to everyone using the term Zionist with that? Because that's some random tangent if I've ever seen one, triggered by a single word. Good derailing tactic though, you completely changed the subject.

I'm not even sure what your point is. Are you confused about what Zionism is? Because that's funny for a Zionist to be confused about. It means you support the existence of a Jewish-supremacist state, and it's a 19th century nationalist idea from Europe. So whatever you're on about is irrelevant. I'm calling you a Zionist, since you clearly support Israel or you wouldn't be taking the time to spread incorrect bullshit in defense of the IDF here.

Maybe you're confused about my comment. Let me explain. You said:

So the IDF controls the border between Gaza and Egypt? You should let Egypt know their border isn’t sovereign anymore.

Egypt controls Egypt's side of the border. Israel controls the Gaza side, what with them occupying it. Since that should be pretty obvious, it sounds like you think Egypt, in order to be sovereign, needs to control both sides the border, i.e. invade Gaza.

Which is funny to me, because that obviously defeats the whole purpose of a border. So I'm imaging you as a person who thinks the whole point of a border is that both sides should be controlled by the same state, since that's how Israel does it, and you being a Zionist, you think that's the normal way a border works. So "Zionist logic". This is a funny thought, a person so brainwashed they don't understand that borders are not like a checkpoint between Israel and the West Bank. There, you made me explain the joke.

[–] gnuhaut@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Yes they do. Even if they didn't that excuses nothing about what Israel is doing.

And I guess by your Zionist logic no country has any sovereignty if anybody but themselves controls both sides of the border, which checks out since that's also how Israel seems to think borders work.

Tons. This on is from Oct 30 in The Nation:

The German state’s show of support has led to an outright banning of most pro-Palestine protests. [...]

The reasons for the bans seemed unambiguous: German police said that there was an “imminent danger” that the assemblies will result in “inciting, anti-Semitic slogans,” as well as “glorification of violence.”

Preemptively. Because antisemitism and "glorification of violence" might occur. And by antisemitism they mean things like this:

On October 13, Berlin police declared uttering the slogan “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” forbidden and indictable. That same day, Berlin’s education senator, Katharina Günther-Wünsch, sent a letter to all Berlin school principals offering them the option to ban students from wearing “pro-Palestinian symbols such as the keffiyeh.” “Any act or expression of opinion that can be understood as advocacy or approval of the attacks against Israel,” she wrote, “constitutes a threat to school peace and is prohibited.”

 

Am 25.03.2024 wurde unser Konto bei der Berliner Sparkasse mit sofortiger Wirkung gesperrt. In einem Schreiben teilt uns die Sparkasse mit, dass sie diesen Schritt vorsorglich unternommen hat und wir zur Aktualisierung unserer Kundendaten zahlreiche Vereinsunterlagen bis zum 05.04. einreichen sollen. Die Sparkasse ist als Körperschaft des öffentlichen Rechts an das öffentliche Recht gebunden und darf nicht willkürlich Konten sperren ohne es zu begründen, was sie nicht getan hat. Außergewöhnlich ist auch, dass zu den geforderten Unterlagen eine Liste unserer Mitglieder mit vollständigen Namen und Anschriften gehört.

 

On 25 March 2024, our account with the Berliner Sparkasse was frozen with immediate effect. In a letter, the Sparkasse informed us that it had taken this step as a precautionary measure and that we should submit numerous internal documents by 5 April to update our customer data. As a public corporation, the bank is bound by public law and may therefore not arbitrarily freeze accounts without providing an explanation, which it did not. It is also highly unusual that the required documents include a list of our members with their full names and addresses.

In ihrem Koalitionsvertrag hatten sich SPD, Grüne und FDP darauf geeinigt, biometrische Erkennung im öffentlichen Raum europarechtlich auszuschließen.

Grüne warnen vor unregulierter KI

Dennoch plädierten inzwischen mehrere Grünen-Politiker dafür, der Verordnung auf EU-Ebene zuzustimmen. So sagte der Bundestagsabgeordnete Tobias Bacherle auf Anfrage von Golem.de: "Statt jetzt den AI Act auszubremsen und aufs Spiel zu setzen, muss die Bundesregierung ihrer Verantwortung nachkommen und sich klar für eine Verabschiedung des AI Act einsetzen. Nach jahrelangen Verhandlungen alles aufzuknöpfen, führt nicht zu einer besseren Verordnung. Es führt lediglich dazu, dass wir bei der dringend notwendigen Regulierung von KI sehr viel Zeit verlieren."

 

Curtailing aid to Ukraine will only prolong the war, Mr Zelensky argues. And it would create risks for the West in its own backyard. There is no way of predicting how the millions of Ukrainian refugees in European countries would react to their country being abandoned. Ukrainians have generally “behaved well” and are “very grateful” to those who sheltered them. They will not forget that generosity. But it would not be a “good story” for Europe if it were to “drive these people into a corner”.

 

Now, the words and figures "with the exception of articles 2-c, 4-c, 5-c, 12-c, 13-c, 14-c, 17-c, 21-c and 22-c" have been removed from the Regulation, i.e. everyone will be recognised as fit under the "controversial" articles:

  • 2-c – clinically treated tuberculosis;
  • 4-c – viral hepatitis with minor functional impairment;
  • 5-c – asymptomatic HIV carrier;
  • 12-c - slowly progressive and non-progressive with minor functional impairment and rare exacerbations of anaemia, blood clotting disorders, purpura, haemorrhagic conditions, other diseases of the blood and haematopoietic organs, and some disorders involving the immune mechanism;
  • 13-c - diseases of the endocrine system with minor functional disorders;
  • 14-c - mild, short-term, painful manifestations of mental disorders;
  • 17-c - neurotic, stress-related and somatoform disorders with moderate or short-term manifestations, with an asthenic state;
  • 21-c – slowly progressive diseases of the central nervous system with minor functional disorders;
  • 22-c – episodic and paroxysmal disorders, except for epilepsy, with minor impairment of organ and system functions.
 

"I can tell you based on the information that we have, that that is not accurate, that we are not aware of China and Cuba developing a new type of spy station," said Pentagon spokesperson Brigadier General Patrick Ryder.

López Portillo belonged to a triumvirate of former presidents — all of whom also had connections to the CIA — who waged a “dirty war” against leftist political dissenters and armed revolutionary organizations between 1964 and 1982. Under these three presidents, the Mexican Armed Forces, the Dirección Federal de Seguridad (or DFS, the notorious secret police), and paramilitary groups committed egregious human rights violations. Agents and soldiers were left to their own devices to track down, torture, rape, and kidnap peasants and students, terrorize rural communities and wreak havoc on their crops, and perform extrajudicial executions and disappearances.
