The rich usually ensure that there are enough gigantic exceptions. And these exceptions often aren’t reported upon.

And maybe he believes the trickle down economy bs.

Your statement screams

…something that’s not similar/equivalent.

So instead of accepting that the driver should be GPL and part of the kernel, you turn things around and pretend the development of the kernel is the way that it is because of a conspiracy against Nvidia?

The bit regarding Wayland doesn’t make sense, no idea what you’re getting at. Though maybe you don’t follow Linux developments?

Up to now he has been able to get really rich by being this way.

Obviously, the EU hasn’t the spine to eject Hungary

There’s no way to remove a member. The EU could remove their voting rights, but Hungary used to be helped by Poland.

I wonder how many extra thousands of EU troops

There’s no EU army. There’s NATO, the EU countries have armies, but there aren’t any EU troops.

Everything just feels slow, clunky and some basic things are quite complecated to archive

It’s been that way for much longer than a few years unfortunately. I don’t understand how people can tolerate it. Some projects switched to it because it seemed more beginner friendly than IRC, but to me it’s not focussed on making things easy.

I haven’t tested dnf5 yet though so can’t comment on it.

It is significantly faster than dnf. I’m looking forward to it becoming the default.

It’s just that the courts aren’t as enthusiastic about dispensing justice

In Netherlands there was a system which was supposed to indicate if you maybe committed fraud regarding taxes and benefits. That system was completely buggy, plus highly biased. People went to the highest courts to prove their innocence and the courts rather trusted the tax authority, which trusted the system.

Children were taken away from families, people lost their jobs, etc. This for around 100.000 people/families.

The government knew and ignored that things were going wrong. A cabinet fell, people voted for the same people, pretty much the same cabinet was installed again.

I wrote this from memory, there’s a Wikipedia article about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_childcare_benefits_scandal?wprov=sfla1

It went on for ages. People are still heavily affected. Most haven’t been helped. It is one of the many scandals as a result from a majority voting for the same right wing party. People were sold that all these problems were due to left wing parties, now there’s an even more extreme right wing parties trying to form a cabinet. Because obviously it wasn’t right wing enough. Urgh.

It’s also funny that a tax meant to increase gas prices and make it easier for alternatives to be cost effective is used in an argument to not do anything and just rely on Russian gas.

Though it would be good/required if that tax directly goes to the country paying it and to efforts to switch from gas. That’s sort of how the Netherlands subsidises the efforts, they made electricity and gas more expensive and used part of that to subsidize solar panels, various business projects, etc.

It has been stalled

More like that it’s been purposely blocked back by the Republicans.

Yay, gatekeeping.

Busting a block of houses!

I wonder if this is related to https://www.sovereigntechfund.de/. This as it shouldn’t be about saving cost. It should be about being sovereign.

Don’t forget this bit from the article:

Trade Policy is an exclusive competence of the European Union. The legal basis for Ireland’s and the EU’s trade relations with Israel is the EU-Israel Association Agreement, which entered into force in June 2000.

just supply issues due to climate change

Traders have been influencing the supply of cocoa for decades to get as much profit as possible. It’s best not to listen to those in the cocoa trade. They’re ruthless.

The article doesn’t say that the prices went up because they paid people more though. There’s also quite a bit of difference in what the producers are paid and what cocoa is sold at.

Cocoa is often transported in bulk, then there’s loads of trade going on where they try to influence the price as much as possible. Meaning, as high as possible.

That the price of cocoa goes up in the past was often caused by artificially reducing supply. Just to make more money.

Anyway, cocoa prices are not set the cost of buying and then a certain margin on top. Meaning, that farmers weren’t being paid enough was on purpose and to make even more money.

Sometimes the different USB ports are backed by different manufacturers. Pretty much all of my USB outputs are a bit unreliable. Apparently a hardware issue. There are two that use a different chipset. Those are the only reliable ones.

So maybe check the various USB ports to see if there’s a difference.

In this case the upstream maintainer heavily obfuscated the code to be able to compromise ssh. Package maintainers aren’t responsible for vetting for that.

Powertop does way more for power usage than just the CPU.

Not relying on the network during a build is pretty common while making an rpm package. It’s a pretty reasonable requirement to have. I’d suggest looking into what e.g. the equivalent Fedora package does.
