While thatβs a good read for someone more technical
I would perhaps put more importance to eagerness to learn. But (I think) I understand where you're hinting at.
the distro chooser brings it to people of lower technical prowess.
While the distrochooser definitely has a lower entry barrier, I'd argue that if one isn't willing to read the above guide, then they might as well roll a die and choose between Bazzite, Fedora, Linux Mint, Pop!_OS, TUXEDO OS and Zorin OS accordingly.
While your endorsement is definitely well-intentioned, I'm unsure if it correctly reflects the project's health^[Unsure if I'd be able to word my criticisms better than this.]. I'd argue we've got (a lot) better resources on the fediverse. Like, e.g. this excellent guide: Understanding Linux and choosing your first Linux distro, v2.0
Thank you for providing that video!
I hadn't seen it before, and I can definitely understand why its content is disturbing.
Granted, as I'm unable to understand the context beyond what AP themselves have provided, I'll (for the sake of the argument) accept this as Palestinians celebrating an attack on the US.
Then, my initial intention was to dissect the argument and explain why I can't agree with your extrapolation^[That is, "But if Palestine had the kind of military backing Israel does, Israel would simply not exist on the map today. And the Palestinians would be openly celebrating over the dead bodies of Israeli people."]. However, to my surprise, your extrapolation might not be as far-fetched as I initially thought π . But, this ultimately depends on what you mean precisely. So, please allow me to ask further clarifications:
Let me know if you still arenβt convinced.
Please allow me to take you up on that offer π.
theyβve been apparently working on its replacement for quite some time, so the βnewsβ of its retirement actually comes because of the discovery of its replacement and the chatter around it.
Are you referring to the combination of Agama, Ansible and Cockpit?
Thanks for posting.
It has been my pleasure!
I was worried that it might have been forgotten about
The XZ utils supply chain attack has actually made the community more wary of blobs. Some projects were even prompted to come clean on this matter.
Fedora has also recently made a push towards reproducible builds. In the lwn.net article that discussed that push, one of Fedora's spokespeople explicitly said that it would help combat supply chain attacks.
So, all in all, I can confidently say that it did leave a mark on the Linux landscape. Hopefully, this specific attack vector will not be as viable in the foreseeable future.
But if Palestine had the kind of military backing Israel does, Israel would simply not exist on the map today. And the Palestinians would be openly celebrating over the dead bodies of Israeli people.
What is this based on? Like, could you (by any means) back up this claim?
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding is that we didn't get any alternative in return. Right?
Thank you for the answer! Much appreciated.
Mint has a common issue of destroying itself on updates.
Could you be more explicit? Like, I don't think it literally deletes itself from your drive. Right? So, what is it then?
It has been my pleasure! Hope it'll work out for ya!
Mint has far too many issues to be a serious suggestion.
Would you mind elaborating on that?
Edit: Note that I've been a Linux^[Including the likes of: EndeavourOS, Fedora Atomic, Nobara and Zorin OS] user for a couple of years now, so no need to dumb down the answer for me. Just a heads-up*.
Your reply is much appreciated, fam! Unfortunately, I wasn't able to return right away. I thank you for your patience! Btw, I'm not native. So, if I misuse any terms/words/phrases or whatnot; my apologies. Usually, I put in some significant effort to alleviate this. Sadly, I didn't quite have the chance to do so this time. Thank you for your understanding!
Thanks fam for the compliments! Your engagement is (I think) (at least) equally commendable!
Btw, I understood the implied context of the footage. But, it would be intellectually dishonest if I didn't take into account the framing at hand. Cuz, if we were to be very critical of the footage itself (so without AP's provided text as guidance), then there's nothing explicitly there that connects those celebrations to the 9/11 killings; no burning of American flags or anything that would imply it. Granted, I assume neither of us speak Arabic. So that doesn't help either π .
Just to be clear, I'm well aware that this story is pretty much uncontested^[I did find this, but it seems to be a biased take.]. So I'm not actually disputing it. But, with the benefit of hindsight^[That is, the eventual wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.], it's hard to completely deny any ulterior motives for broadcasting said celebrations.
And to push back: is it sociologically-speaking strange for them to be glad that the biggest support of their rivals has received a retribution?
History has indeed taught us that that^[Nation states only exist since relatively recently. So, there has never been a Palestinian state or something. However, Muslim rule has dictated over those lands. My reading of history informs me that while Jews definitely weren't first-class citizens, they were fortunately not persecuted like we saw in other parts of the world.]'s a pretty likely outcome. But, I was also curious to hear your take on the other question. Namely, "What would become of the Israeli people?".
Likely indeed.
For this, I'm not so sure. But it could be.
Ah, another celebration. I'm starting to notice a pattern :P .
Another one.
This video I didn't pay a lot of attention to as the media outlet didn't seem to be as reliable as I'd like.
I think I got the message by now :P .
If sainthood is achieved through suffering alone, then I'd argue they would make a good chance. But yeah, I get where you're hinting at.
