The flip side of the headline: “How society is grappling with older drivers refusing to hang up their keys”

Probably not what you want to hear, but I think exiftool + bash script really is the way to go. A few years ago I had a similar need and searched for hours online… I ended up hacking together a “good enough” bash script that reads all the dates of my pictures and does some stuff. It took 30 mins of reading some basic bash scripting basics. Way less time than searching for a tool that probably doesnt exist.

In 2024, you can probably just ask chatgpt to write a quick and dirty bash script for you and it might require another 10mins of debugging/begging chatgpt to fix its mistakes

Europe is not designed for oversized cars.

Too many drivers are selfish morons and will manage to cram their oversized vehicles into any space without consideration for the safety of anyone outside their own bubble. Doesnt matter if the city was “designed” for it or not.

I was just in Bellagio Italy last week. For some reason, cars are allowed to drive through the medieval city center through extremely narrow roads packed with pedestrians… Which is OK if you’re driving a fiat 500… But this oversized jeep cherokee drive right through town, with barely any space for pedestrians to move aside. I’m not sure if it was a lost tourist or a local resident, but drivers should not be trusted to pilot such a vehicle through crowds with so little margin for error.

Signal is fine for almost everyone unless you’re truly doing dangerous work in a truly oppressive state.

I’m so tired of everyone telling others not to use signal because it uses phone numbers. Everyone in here acting like they’re mr. Robot or something.

Anonymity is not the same as privacy. Privacy is good enough for me

Newer versions of apt now have coloured text showing what will be installed (green) and what will be REMOVED (red)

Handy feature for someone like me who also makes mistakes

Where’s dave chappelle in all of this? Isnt this in his backyard? Isnt he a trump supporter now?

Doesnt mean it’s dead. Some projects are in maintenance mode

How many new features does a bible need???

AndBible updated 2 months ago for me on f-droid

The github doesnt look dead to me

Neutral, non-american here… And i do believe that trump needs to be defeated but…

Why is it when republicans raise millions people say “politics is corrupted by money!!”

But when the dems rake in $300M its framed as a good thing?

The more you shop at dollar stores, the more money you waste.

And the more waste goes to the garbage… This is why the earth is on fire

This isnt freeware.

“Free” in free software is free like free speech, not free as in beer.

This is one of the places where english fails. Libre vs gratis

This is not an OS behaviour. KDE is a desktop environment.

If it bothers you so much, remove the DE and use the command line, full time

I have to use windoze for my work laptop…

15% cpu constantly being used by bullshit telemetry processes. Gigs of RAM also being eaten up by bullshit processes and “try copilot!!” popups every time i accidently make the wrong gesture on the touchpad.

My 9 year old laptop with only 8GB RAM running debian is blazing fast in comparison.

Or mabye the LLM has been trained to make a few benign spelling mistakes in order to seem human.

The thing is, these numbers are unfathomable to most people.

If you say, “government gave $30B in subsidies to car companies”, most people will stare at you blankly and shrug…

But people will get really angry if they see a headline like, “man commits $5000 of welfare fraud”, or “goverment spent $100 000 housing 5 refugee families” because those are real numbers to them.

Most likely x11 vs wayland

Sorry, i dont have all the links available, but the root cause of the problem is apparently with the amdgpu driver

Kscreen was supposed to implement some kind of workaround, but i lost track of how that was going.

I’ve had this problem for years. I contributed to one of the existing bug reports for kscreen on this.

If i dont login to kde (sddm login screen), the screens will shut off normally… But once i login, the problem starts. So i concluded the problem is with kscreen2. I even tested by killijg kscreen2 and the problem goes away

I know lemmy has a gigantic hate boner for LLMs, but if you plugged this scenario into a good one (probably not the bog standard “free” chatgpt in bing) you’ll probably get a very entertaining conversation.

I hope you’re upgrading from debian buster to bullseye!
