    The bloody lights everyone is obsessed with nowadays caused me numerous nights of shit sleep. Some devices designed by companies who clearly think too much of themselves decided that they would keep their LEDs on despite the computer shutting down.

    If anyone else is experiencing this issue, look for ErP in your BIOS/EFI and then turn it on/enable it.

    Caveat: you won’t be able to charge your USB devices using your PC USB ports while the PC is shutdown if you change this setting.





  • I feel kind of lame saying so, but I just use Kate for taking notes.

    I only realised it was supposed to be for editing code when it gave me a debug error when I wrote something with parentheses (what do you mean there’s an error in line 43!? That sentence makes perfect sense!)

    Heard of them, but couldn’t name a single song or pinpoint their genre.

    Checked out a song on YT to get an idea and it was literally just a generic boy band. I mean… I guess their songs rhyme? But then, so do nursery rhymes, and they haven’t been my thing for quite a while now.

    To each their own.







  • Okay, so listen to this, everybody. The Stardew Valley NPCs are getting all upset with me for digging in their trash, like, seriously? What’s the problem? I’m a genius, folks, very successful, and I carry this town all the time! They’re all like “Ew! That’s awful!” But you know what’s not awful? The fact that people showed up in droves at my last rally - a gigantic crowd! They love me, they really do! Without me here, Pelican Town would be in shambles, believe me! So let’s not kid ourselves, don’t test me, or I’ll show them what a mess looks like!

    Late response, but well, late’s better than never.

    The initial constitution of Gran Colombia (which also included Ecuador, Panama, and Venezuela) allowed for jus soli (lit. ‘right of soil’ i.e. citizenship by being born in a particular location).

    This joint state failed for a variety of reasons (e.g. colonial influence, regional disputes) and each country had to amend/rewrite their respective constitutions. Colombia rewrote their constitution to remove jus soli citizenship after the breakup.

    Historical records aren’t precise, but after Ecuador, Panama, and Venezuela separated, the remains of Colombia (the initial ‘parent’ country) likely faced an immigration crisis from the ‘new’ nation-states. Adding additional restrictions on migration when rewriting the Constitution after the breakup was likely an attempt to respond to the immediate migration crisis.


  • That’s a good point; my company actually does implement something like this, though it invites intervention from the recipient for confirmation. I have previously received e-mail notifications stating that an e-mail has been ‘held’ as being suspicious and provided me an option to ‘release’ the e-mail (in these cases the e-mails were genuine and known in advance to me).

    Of course, I have no simple way to determine if there is also an additional hard filter that blocks out obvious phishing with no notification to the end user.

    Jesus Christ can you at least be accurate?

    Speaking of accuracy, your comment seems to identify the wrong issue. Navigating the install menus in a non-Arch linux distro is pretty much analogous to Windows. The biggest difference is that Linux distros don’t have 3-4 pages where they sneakily try to include privacy-breaching clauses during the installation.

    The real issue is starting the installation in the first place. Windows is easy, because hardware manufacturer’s have en masse bent over to willingly present themselves to Microsoft, Linux doesn’t have this advantage and users must figure out how to get around the 7,000 different Secure Boot UEFI configurations before they can even start the installation process.

    Some companies (e.g. Vow) are focusing on producing niche deluxe products that are generally unavailable to the public. Dodo is one of the animals that are considered in cultivated meat because then they won’t be directly competing with the traditional meat industry.

    They have already made a mammoth burger (sort of).
