A curious historical event of a chinese scholar in Vietnam, the cultural exchange and their perceptions of the other.

While we laugh at this guy, he's gutting the remaining US healthcare.

Yeah, so it might be something else, IDK. Good luck!

Can you test a newer version of firefox? I have 128 ESR on my work laptop and it's slow there too, it might be this.

One thing, always use hardware acceleration.

Does it get better if you set in about:config:

  • dom.ipc.processCount and dom.ipc.processCount.webIsolated to your number of threads on your cpu
  • gfx.webrender.all to true
  • fission.autostart to true

I think it would, in my suspicion, make a better use of your cpu (the threadpool would be more efficient in the processcount), using the new renderer (webrender) and possibly make it a little more secure with one thread per website (or something, i don't remember exactly) using fission.

Edit: An explanation on webrender

Yeah, but the people that are doing this gave this power to him, putting people in the government that are loyal to him, not to any other person in congress/supreme court.

He took the government like Sulla, took out any person that he disliked and put loyalists there. Sulla divided the Senate, etc, but after just took the power from them. This book and CGP Grey talk in a way of following some rules that are out of the window and I think this situation is more like what Maquiavelli describes in the "taking a new state for yourself", he cleaned the slate, this people have only institutional power, but there are no more rules as the people in real power, in the executive branch, are totally loyal to him.

He told AIPAC to go fuck themselves (metaphorically) and seems to dislike Netanyahu, this is unprecendented for the fascist party, but not to him. He took their missiles and sent them to Ukraine. I think he took absolute power already, The Heritage Foundation and the other republicans can only complain, I think he makes the rules now.

This is my analysis, but only the future will show.

Edit: Just hope for the bad luck of a "fanatic", as Machiavelli describes, to kill him.

Will Trump follow other peoples plans? They gave him the power of an emperor, so it seems interesting to see if he wants the negotiations as the said he wants or to follow the other fascists opinions.

Is he in absolute power, as a fascist, or is he sharing power with other fascists?

[–] MRLimcon@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 week ago

I agree.

The vague wording is bad, I think they should just use the absolute values and another one with the percentages, that would make it a lot clearer.

[–] MRLimcon@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 week ago (2 children)

The data showed on that image contradicts this, it says "percentage change in homicides and police killings since 2015". This is very clear language, "since 2015, this is the percentage change in homicides and police killings", not "difference between homicides and police killings in this year to 2015".

I'm talking about the original chart, not this chart specifically, the language is implying different things, probably showing things that are not real, based on the text that was given.

[–] MRLimcon@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

"as other homicides fell", but shows growth rate. This is just disinformation from the media (New York Times), homicides grew not "fell", by its own chart.

This must be intentional, because no one would do this using this chart. Is it implying that police killings reduce other homicides? (based on this contradictory chart)

Edit: chart

The race is on a loop, you only pass each point one time. You get from the starting place and return there, passing at each point 1 time, what would be the shortest/fastest path? That's the problem.

You can probably put weights on the fuel efficiency, based on the cargo weight, distance/speed he can drive (based on the experience and expected value for him), fueling stops, etc. Just add that to A* and some tinkering, I think you could make a good algorithm.

Oh yeah, the biggest allies, the left and ummm, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar?

 

So, I work in the IT department of a company and do my job well, but I was getting sick and needed to take medication again for gastritis.

When I was getting sick, I didn't feel good to work at the office, as the work's hybrid, instead of WFH, and explained to my boss, but worked normally and made all the work that was asked of me, this happened some times, like 2 times in the last month. I got better after started taking medication again and it never happened again. As I said, I work normally and do my time (now I'm in overtime) as asked and code, just that at the time I couldn't get to work at the office.

I have the receipts for the medication (gastritis) I bought at the exact time I told my boss I couldn't get to the office.

But now it seems weird at the office, the boss of my boss doesn't care, but the boss of them cares a lot and takes people to measure which person is at the office (the work is hybrid, not WFH). My boss told this last week, in a weird way (it seemed steered at me), to my team. And I overheard my boss talking to other people in Teams about taking notes and registering things, I think I heard my name too.

I'm now in another project that the boss of my boss is really needing, and I'm doing a good job, even the senior dev said that he wants to take me and another colleague to the team that handled the project before.

So I'm in a doubled edged sword, it seems I do a good job (and people want to steal me), but I'm being recorded for firing by middle management.

What can I do? I already started looking for new jobs, but I wanted to talk to my boss directly about "things being weird at the office", not in a rude manner, but wanting to know what is happening.

Just a recomendation, as the theme is quite beautiful.

Edit: Just the GIMP on the title.

What you’re refering to as Windows, is in fact, GNU/Windows, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Windows. Windows is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another closed component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Windows”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Windows, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Windows is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Windows is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Windows added, or GNU/Windows. All the so-called “Windows” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Windows.
