The bravery of this women to speak up against injustice! No doubt she is going to "face consequences" for this disruption. Let's wish her the best.

Something was always "off" with this guy. You could feel it during his "sexy socialist Jesus" era and it was practically confirmed with his "conspiratorial Ghandi" revamp.

Here's a Channel 4 documentary that goes into further detail about this man's deranged proclivities.

That did the trick. Thanks! Now I feel stupid for posting this.

My mirror must be permanently down because I've attempted to install cmake several times over the past three days. How do I go about switching it?

I'm using yay -S cmake to install. This is the output it returns:

With respect to nuclear energy, in what ways will it help alleviate the climate crisis and where will it not? in c/climate@slrpnk.net
[–] SpiceDealer@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

...so of you want to keep burning fossil fuels, its great for delay/distraction.

Far from it. I believe that fossil fuels should go the way of the dodo. It's unfortunate that nuclear is depicted as some sort of "Grim Reaper" energy because of Three Mile Island, Chernobyl and Fukushima. I find it strange that same fear and paranoia surrounding nuclear isn't also applied to fossil fuels and petrochemicals. Correct if I'm wrong but it seems that Exxon Valdez and Deepwater Horizon did far more damage than Chernobyl ever could.

Massive congratulations to Europol and its partners in taking this shit down and putting these perverts away. However, they shouldn't rest on their laurels. The objective now is to ensure that the distribution of this disgusting material is stopped outright and that no further children are harmed.

Nuclear always comes up when discussing the energy transition but renewables seem to be a much more popular consideration. Can nuclear energy help us towards a greener future or is it a long dead dream?

‘Doctor Who’ Star Says “Doctor Woke” Criticism Means Series Is Simply Spreading Kindness in c/Television@lemm.ee
[–] SpiceDealer@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 days ago

I feel that the whole "Woke/DEI" era will be remembered as a poorly timed inflection point. On one hand, you had the media conglomerates, who, instead of investing in original content decided to put stock in continuations of established franchises which often had poor writing and were poorly executed. These works also just happened to have a "diversity" angel to them. At the same time, we saw the increase in right wing voices online that started to infiltrate the fandoms of those already established franchises.

Social media algorithms also began to push this kind of content to a wider audience. How many times have you seen a random Youtube video with titles like " X is WOKE PROPAGANDA TRASH! Hollywoke is in DECLINE! " appear in your feed or homepage? If the work in question was a critical flop (i.e. terrible), it was not a flop because of creative deficiencies. No, it was a flop because it had a non-binary black character!

You never heard legitimate criticisms like "Hollywood is putting profits before good entertainment" or "[Show or movie] had poor writing, bad acting, terrible direction and didn't contribute anything to already established canon."

Take Deep Space 9 as an example. A great show with a very diverse cast but that diversity would be useless if the characters weren't as fleshed out as they were. Now imagine what the discourse around DS9 would look like if it were made today:

"A New BLACK Protagonist? Star Trek Has Gone WOKE!"

"Jadzia Dax and Odo: Trans Ideology PROPAGANDA?!"

When a new piece of media comes out and there is a massive stir attached to it, ask yourself this: is the criticism warranted or is it ideology driven?

EU OS: A Fedora-based distro 'for the public sector' (eu-os.gitlab.io)
 

It's only a proof of concept at the moment and I don't know if it will see mass adoption but it's a step in the right direction to ending reliance on US-based Big Tech.

When building a home server, could a used/cheap PC do the job? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
 

I've never done any sort of home networking or self-hosting of any kind but thanks to Jellyfin and Mastodon I've become interested in the idea. As I understand it, physical servers ("bare metal" correct?) are PCs intended for data storing and hosting services instead of being used as a daily driver like my desktop. From my (admittedly) limited research, dedicated servers are a bit expensive. However, it seems that you can convert an old PC and even laptop into a server (examples here and here). But should I use that or are there dedicated servers at "affordable" price points. Since is this is first experience with self-hosting, which would be a better route to take?
