Btrfs is a filesystem just like ext4, you can mount the root subvolume and upload all files somewhere.

Timeshift is not a backup solution though. Snapshots are built-in with btrfs. So you can install a snapshotter tool like Snapper. But it would be best if you already have partitioned you btrfs filesystem into multiple subvolumes. Like the suggested layout.

No, it isn’t part of the EU.

It is part of the Kingdom of Denmark, which isn’t in the EU. Only Denmark, a country within the Kingdom is in the EU.

However, the citizen of Greenland are citizen of Denmark, thus EU citizen.

But you are right that Greenland has a closer relationship with the EU, then Ukraine. And the EU and allies want to protect its citizens at least. And via its member state Denmark, the constituents of Kingdom of Denmark as well.

Edit: To be honest, I have no clue what happens to citizen of Greenland, if US would take over… Would they be EU and US citizen? Would they have to leave? Well… Let’s hope that doesn’t get answered anytime.

Yes he is pathetic and he is a bully.

And too many people think bullies that just take what they want are ‘strong’.

Tons of people in STEM fields dreamt about it for years.

Not a native English speaker but “dreamt” is past tense, so they stopped dreaming, implying they stopped because now we have “AI”.

Prediction and pattern recognition is not general AI. This is just what LLMs and image generators do. They find plausible continuations starting from a noise to better fit the disired outcome. They don’t have real contextual knowledge about a domain. To them everything is just numbers that can be manipulated until they fit better. They don’t just instantly know the correct or incorrect answer because of a deeper understanding on the matter.

Well… We still don’t have AI. We got language and picture generators…

That really depends on your definition of ‘left-wing’.

Because I would argue that ‘left-wing’ is not only a descriptor for a political agenda. It also that includes economic issues. To me an economic system is pretty important part of a political system.

For instance, I would say that ‘free market communism’ doesn’t exist. I would also say that ‘authoritarian communism’ doesn’t exist. To me authoritarian and socialistic ideas are not compatible, because power is in the hands of an elite, and control mechanisms of that power were never strong enough. Control mechanisms of democracies worked generally better, but democracies also need to be properly defended and maintained.

There are two versions of the bangle.js watch. The second version looks pretty similar to the pinetime.

I used to use the pinetime for a while and now have the bangle.js 2 watch.

Pinetime is cheaper in DE than the bangle.js (40€ vs 90€ IIRC).

Both are nice watches and integrate well with gadgetbridge and have a couple of weeks battery. Which is much more then what you get from a Android watch.

But you don’t need to misuse language to assign responsibility.

What? I am interested… How else would you assign the responsibility to people that designed something intentionally bad, if you cannot used language?

“Misuse [of] language” is a concept I cannot even begin to wrap my head around…

Do I loose the warranty if I use language in unintended ways?

It is their responsibility for breaking the system.

You just ‘misused’ language to assign responsibility to people for breaking the system.

Saying the system was always designed for this removes responsibility.

No? Responsibility is not a binary concept. Someone can kill someone else, and would be responsible for that death, and the people around that killer could also share responsibility for not noticeing their unusual behavior. And the system could also be responsible for not giving the killer the support they needed, which drove them to kill someone. And the people that designed or constructed that system could also be responsible for not caring enough about these kinds of deaths to prevent them systemically.

There is a difference is saying “I does what it does” and “what it does is per design”. The latter assigns a responsibility.

In OP Aziraphale gives socienty the responsibility to fix a broken system incrementally and Crowley gives the people in power the fault of intentionally creating a bad system and calls for revolution.

I don’t know what you mean by that. No country or federation in the world is self sufficient. Everyone needs global trade.

Sure, but we are talking about the US here.

Or are you all busy building tunnels and bunkers over there? Organise in your neighborhood and build local groups?

Pretty sure that if the media starts calling these guerrillas terrorists, anti-american, instigators of violence, Communists, Antifa, and so on, they will loose public support and without broad local support in the population, guerilla fighting will not work.

Afganistán and Vietnam fought guerilla against a foreign invasion. US would have to fight ‘guerilla’ against their neighbors and other Americans, against people like them… I don’t think this is comparable.

In an all out war, (which I doubt will happen) all these guns in the population don’t matter against drones, aircrafts, tanks and trained snipers or other soldiers. If the military and all other agencies decides to support Trump, all these weapons will be useless. The pentagon surely has plans for a civil uprising in their own country.

I don’t think the US has enough ordinary citizen that would actually risk their lives for democracy, to make a difference. Media and social media is controlled by the oligarchy, and even the progressives don’t seem to want to cut themselves loose of twitter, Facebook/Whatsapp, google, bluesky, discord and so on. Where would they even organize?

Hmm… I am using git for maybe 15 years… Maybe I’m just too familiar with it… and have forgotten my initial struggles… To me using git comes natural… And I normally pay a lot of attention to every single commit, since I started working on patches for the Linux kernel. I often rebase and reorder commits many times, before pushing/merging them into a branch where continuity matters.

Sure, I sometimes messed up with git, but a git reset , checkout, rebase or filter-branch (In the extreme cases) normally fixes it, but real issues are very rare. And I use git a lot… But only the CLI, maybe people have issues with GUIs?

Isn’t it the exact opposite?

I learned that you can never make a mistake if you aren’t using git, or any other way for having access to old versions.

With git it is really easy to get back to an old version, or bisect commits to figure out what exact change was the mistake.

The only way I understand this joke is more about not wanting to be caught making a mistake, because that is pretty easy. In other methods figuring out who did the mistake might be impossible.

I did read that. And how much of it was distributed, it doesn’t say.

In every article on records about of food preparation, they never say how much of it is eaten and how much of it is thrown away.

I would necessitate that all or a large percentage of it needs to be eaten for the record to count.

Maybe you are scarcastic, but I think nobody should be afraid of their life by getting killed by random people.
