Well, lobbyists work not only for evil corpos, but also for NGOs and movements… Lobbyism is the process to sway politics to a direction through interpersonal meetings, and is necessarily in a democracy.

However, one thing that would benefit the US is transparency around lobbyists; who they are, how they are funded, their agenda etc. The EU has a database on registered lobbyists and the transparency helps with parts of the problem.

Fzf is so useful its ridiculous. I recreated the functionality of sshs with fzf and a small bash script.

How does screen / tmux work when detached from a session, how does it keep the session alive (both when running locally, and while ssh:ing to a server)? Is there a daemon involved?

Try zellij. Not as popular as tmux, but very intuitive to use.

Good that improvements are happening. I was briedly in basra long time ago. Stay strong!

Are you an Iraqi in Iraq? I am an ex-iraqi but have lived in the Nordics majority of my life. People here don’t talk much about the country, but the few tourists that go there go to Erbil and only have good things to say about it.

Would love to hear your own experience too.

I couldn’t get into it for the life of me, despite several attempts. I am happy for those who enjoyed it - seems like a chill game.

With macOS or Asahi?

He is on another level, so I imagine he can solve issues that arise compared to the average person 😁

Whaaaat, you’re having a good experience with teams in Firefox? I’ve run into all kinds of problems with teams under Firefox in linux, particularly with codecs and not being able to receive video. It works better under edge in linux, but unsurprisingly, the best teams experience is under the native client in Windows.

Some are forced to use windows due to workplace requirements or software only running on windows. I run linux everywhere I can, but don’t always have the choice.

Whatever model you buy, avoid the newer L-series.

Correct me I’d I’m wrong, but with docker you’re limited to the filesyatems and the image of the OS you’re installing. If you need to experiment with the pre-OS boot events, can that even be accomplished with docker? E.g., trying out different GRUB settings, setting up LUKS with dropbear etc. I think those things require a VM.

Why is flatpak a security risk? The applications run isolated and offer higher security, unless I’m missing something?

Swedish radio produces a lot of high quality podcasts. Public service at it’s finest!

I’ve been using linux on and off for 20 years and docker reignited my interest for running linux. There’s plenty of good guides and free courses, if you need help finding one - let me know and I’ll send you a YT playlist.

I use gmail and my own domain with uninbox. The latter is a quite new FOSS email front/backend, but its still very new and lacks essential features.

If I’d make the switch, it would probably be to tutanota.

Briar, for communication during internet blackouts or when there is no connectivity at all.

As an ex social worker in Sweden (both as a case officer and treatment assistant), I can attest to the low pay, garbage benefits (if any) and extremely stressful work.
