  • Being a not as short person that’s into taller people but lives in a short country. All the same problems but I don’t even get to say I’m tall. I was recently in Budapest and a guy dropped a beer on me because he turned around and literally didn’t even register me existing around 20cm below his eye line. He was very nice about the whole thing and even bought me a beer but man…

    First, it’s true. Secondly, it matters a lot because there’s no fool proof way to update through the CLI that takes into account all of the software delivery methods that exist today so you could do use dnf to upgrade daily and still have old flatpak or viceversa. That’s exactly why Fedora recommends updating through the GUI.




  • lol not happening. Lemme just say it again: Lemmings are completely disconnected from reality. They can’t fathom that some people can’t or don’t want to spend time figuring that out. They will argue for days that “it’s not that hard” and people should just learn how to do it or stop being lazy or whatever before doing anything about it.

    Edit: I hadn’t even read the other comments in this thread before I typed this. There’s someone literally saying they want to gatekeep the fediverse from people without tech knowledge.





  • Yeah… that doesn’t seem like a reliable site. According to the FAQ the owner just reads the labels and assigns a rating based on their own undocumented scoring system. They also have no particular qualifications for the work they’re doing and make several clerical errors due to their own bias. For example, they don’t count anything listed only as “protein” as protein because they don’t trust the manufacturer not to lie on the label. Given that this site gets literally all of their information from the manufacturer’s label, I’m sure you see why that’s a problem. Their information is also just plain wrong on some accounts, such as labeling Royal Canin as “significantly lower carbs than average” while most experts agree the opposite is true. The reason they get these wrong is due to a flawed methodology. They basically add up the percentages on the labels and classify whatever is left however they want.

    For the record, I don’t feed my cat Royal Canin (due to the above reason), I was only commenting on the smell. Nevertheless, I would advise everyone to steer away from that site.









  • The USA is now part of a list of “sensitive countries” with authoritarian states with their own version of reality. When users in one of the countries on this list visit Google sites, they see that government’s version of reality. This is nothing new. Google does it all the time with disputed territories. It’s only news because it’s the first time the US has an authoritarian government.

    Here’s how it looks when visiting from a Mexican device with the language set to Australian English while located in Hungary.
