Technology@lemmy.world•‘You Will Not Speak on Flock Tonight’: County Commissioner Refuses to Let Residents Opposing Flock Speak at MeetingEnglish
153·21 days agoHave you ever heard the phrase “The revolution will not be televised”?
Seems like you just want an excuse to blame americans for not doing enough when all you have is american news from whatever country you’re from - but sure - keep holding that reductive belief

Technology@lemmy.world•400+ Arch Linux AUR Packages Compromised in a Supply Chain Attack Deploying InfostealersEnglish
246·21 days agoI think a lot of people are confusing what the AUR actually IS. It is NOT the official package repository used by Archlinux - it’s more like a bunch of community install scripts for stuff that isn’t officially supported yet - for popularity or other reasons.
So for all those people complaining and saying “debian does it better” it’s very likely that you would not even HAVE a package to install and would have to come up with a build script on your own - the AUR allows you to skip this and instead just verify that the script itself isn’t malicious, which is usually fairly obvious.
A lot of people here seem to be under the impression that all of this effort should be abstracted for them - but that’s what you chose when you left windows - a system that you control intimately with a necessitation to actually do some upkeep yourself because a giant company isn’t doing it for you.
In other words. RTFM and stop expecting other people fix all your problems for you, because that’s exactly how windows got to how it currently is.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL that in Connecticut, USA, a man was held captive by his stepmother for 20 years, beginning since he was a child.English
23·5 months agoI was curious, so I looked up the public records from the criminal court of connecticut, looks like next court date is in march, not much has happened besides the crazy stepmother continually requesting that she be informed of the location and new alias of the person she (allegedly) abused

LOL Ted Cruz is right there next to all the CEOs
