All the major outlets are reporting that the FBI confirms it's him now. Very confusing, all round.

Shooter appears to be a white male, aged 20s or early 30s by the look of it. The t-shirt he was wearing is allegedly marked with branding for a firearms-related YouTube channel.

Edit: Possible suspects are either Maxwell Yearick, previously arrested while demonstrating against Trump in Pittsburgh on a previous occasion, or a Thomas Matthew Crooks, according to the NY Post.

Hasn't been officially ID'd yet though, so still speculation.

Hi, thanks for the response.

Similar to posts, when selecting the options for an individual comment in the official lemmy-ui, as a moderator you can 1) check the modlog history of that user, 2) remove the comment, 3) ban the author of the the comment from the community, and 4) appoint the author as a new moderator of that community.

It would be great to see all of these features added to Thunder, but as a priority I would say that removing the comment and banning the author are the top two most important for moderators.

And every time, the taxpayer foots the bill. Until the funds start coming from police pensions, nothing is going to change.

Sorry, as per the rules of this community you're not allowed to see them as human.

Now there's an idea.

For a while I've been thinking that all sports should get rid of gendered male/female competitions and replace them with ~~weight~~ categories that take into account physiological characteristics like muscle mass, testosterone levels, weight, height, etc. This would result in, say, three to four categories ranging from lightweight to heavyweight.

Why wouldn't this work?

I've never had to deal with Broadcom drivers or pinned the kernel, so I can't tell you anything about that. The LTS kernel (currently 6.6.32-1) still updates regularly, albeit not nearly as often as the stock Arch kernel, so that means fewer updates that require a reboot.

Just install linux-lts and linux-lts-headers via pacman, and you're good to go.

Interesting. Do you know if it works with an existing LUKS-encrypted installation?

I do not like the frequency of reboots necessitated by kernel upgrades. I know that I could mask it, but IME that eventually causes problems with packages than make .ko kernel modules; it's just more things to fail, and it makes me really wish Linus would have just based Linux on MINIX.

Here's a tip that you might not be aware of: Arch has an LTS kernel. It may seem counter intuitive to run Arch and not have the latest, bleeding edge kernel, but the upside is that you get a stabler, less breakage-prone system.

Same. Two years and counting.

I understand very well what liberalism and socialism are, thanks. Where we disagree is the definition of the "left" versus the "right". Even in Europe, the old socialist left is becoming a thing of a bygone age, so of course the Overton window shifts to reflect the current political landscape.
