Pretty sure the staff are just giving guests the figurines and then management are surprised that guests thought they were gifts.

They’re completely irrelevant to the average person.

If you want absolute perfection then sure, stick with Chrome but implying Firefox on GrapheneOS is insecure is misinformation.

Is there an easy way of seeing the preceding emails in a threaded format?

I read some posted yesterday that were related but it’s damn confusing whether the conversation has been active in between?

You didn’t screw up, you beautifully proved why the CLI is never a simple solution.

This answer is probably the best here. It’s concise and answers your questions in a reasonably unbiased way.

A lot of the other answers are dripping with personal bias and a few verging on conspiracy.

24.83 fatalities in 2019 and 25.95 in 2018 per 100 million miles ridden on motorcycle according to the source of the other article: https://crashstats.nhtsa.dot.gov/Api/Public/ViewPublication/812979.pdf

If we take the value for personal flights:

21.1 fatal accidents per million flight hours

I’m going to assume 125 mph as I’m skeptical of your 145 mph figure.

= 21.1 fatal per 125 million miles

= 16.88 fatal per 100 million miles of personal flights

I’d basically conclude that personal flights and motorbike are in the same ballpark whether you’re looking at hours or miles.

Motorcycle:

16 to 18 fatal motorcycle accidents per million hours ridden

Personal flights:

21.1 fatal accidents per million flight hours

I’m really surprised at that.

Thinking about it though most bikers I know are young, have good reflexes and are mostly using a motorbike for commuting or travelling which is probably lower risk than the cliche teenage fool on a superbike my mind jumped to.

By contrast, the vast majority of light aircraft pilots I know are 60+, many 70+ with extensive health issues, heart problems and likely comparatively poor reflexes.

corporate aviation – the world of bizjets – is relatively safe. This sector only saw 0.48 fatal accidents per million flight hours from 2012 to 2021

General aviation overall:

9.5 fatal crashes per million flight hours

No, I would agree that comparing by hour is reasonable. Most light aircraft use (in my area at least) is generally recreational. People are flying because they enjoy the hobby rather than because they have a destination in mind, therefore they’ll fly for a long duration but the distance travelled might not be far

Plus planes are checked before every use, and very few people are flying light aircraft in a reckless manner.

I’d be very surprised if there were any stats to backup a claim that light aircraft are as dangerous as motorcycles.

There’s a lot more detail in this BBC story but it still seems likely there’s an injunction against publishing any specifics of the lies MI5 told.

My interpretation is that “Beth” was assaulted on multi occasions by a right wing MI5 informant. She reported this to the police and the suspect was arrested. However while in custody the suspect insisted he was an MI5 operative and MI5 was contacted, MI5 then intervened and had the informant was released.

Most likely MI5 then lied about intervening (the false evidence) but the BBC have clear evidence that MI5 took charge of evidence. Thus MI5’s lies were exposed.

The police did not take a full statement from Beth or obtain the video of her being attacked. The CPS quickly discontinued the prosecution.

The police force concerned and the CPS insist the case was discontinued due to lack of evidence.

Police said they did not seize any items as part of their own investigation, and were “unable to advise when or why these were taken”.

This was untrue, as the police force concerned was responsible for calling in counter terror officers.

The police claim that property had been returned to X was also untrue - the material had been given to MI5.

Why be so vague? That’s only ever going to frustrate people.

Is it definitely the MP3 format at fault here? Was your MP3 from an official source or could it have been from a faulty source or improperly transcoded?

understand what is the common idea about the fact that systemd could be a critical part of Linux which is in the hands of IBM and Microsoft and what this means for the linux community overall.

Either nobody cares, or it’s too much complottistic to be real.

I wasn’t familiar with the word complotism but yes I think this is the case - It’s just an unsubstantiated conspiracy.

Even if were true that Microsoft had taken over systemd by stealth. What is the harm? If they suddenly do something malicious with it then all the distros will just fork systemd and continue without the malicious elements.

I’ve read the update you made to your original post.

So I now understand your concern is Microsoft control systemd and the proof of that is that the project lead works for Microsoft? Is that the only proof?

I think it’s quite a grasp. There is no money in open source so the developers need jobs. In this case the developer happens to be employed by Microsoft.

I was impressed they resisted calling it micro$oft. That’s the usual sign of somebody adopting the tribal views of others.

In that case why not share your opinion?

Instead you’ve claimed you’re neutral and shared links to the views of 15 other people.

You haven’t even provided any context on these articles. Or quoted anything from them that you are concerned about.

Everything about this screams you’re asking in bad faith just hoping to waste people’s time or start an argument.

You provided 15 links.

Are you seriously expecting somebody to walk you through each one?

You’re claiming not to care either way about systemd and yet you’ve provided 15 sources against it and apparently done zero research into why it has been so widely adopted.

It’s not immediately clear what it is you’re trying to achieve, but if you were able to solve it in Godot then you can probably solve it with Bevy it’s an ECS based game engine for Rust.

I’ve been incredibly impressed with it so far, and they’ve got a rapid rate of development so it’s improving fast.

The recent v0.15 release integrated support for picking that includes specific events for drag and drop:

You can find some UI examples here, none specifically show drag and drop as far as I can see. There are separately some examples of picking that you might want to look at

Well, the latest development I’ve seen is they’re deleting (censoring) comments calling out the political bias of their CEO on their post about how they’re fighting against censorship:

https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonVPN/comments/1ij4qn9/behind_the_scenes_of_proton_vpns_fight_against/

Here’s an evidenced account of part of what their CEO asserted:

This is what the CEO posting as u/Proton_Team stated in a response on r/ProtonMail:

Here is our official response, also available on the Mastodon post in the screenshot:

Corporate capture of Dems is real. In 2022, we campaigned extensively in the US for anti-trust legislation.

Two bills were ready, with bipartisan support. Chuck Schumer (who coincidently has two daughters working as big tech lobbyists) refused to bring the bills for a vote.

At a 2024 event covering antitrust remedies, out of all the invited senators, just a single one showed up - JD Vance.

By working on the front lines of many policy issues, we have seen the shift between Dems and Republicans over the past decade first hand.

Dems had a choice between the progressive wing (Bernie Sanders, etc), versus corporate Dems, but in the end money won and constituents lost.

Until corporate Dems are thrown out, the reality is that Republicans remain more likely to tackle Big Tech abuses.

Source: https://archive.ph/quYyb

To call out the important bits:

1. He refers to it as the “official response”
2. Indicates that JD Vance is on their side just because he attended an event that other invited senators didn’t
3. Rattles on about “corporate Dems” with incredible bias
4. States “Republicans remain more likely to tackle Big Tech abuses” which is immediately refuted by every response

That was posted in ther/ProtonMail sub where the majority of the event took place: https://old.reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/comments/1i1zjgn/so_that_happened/m7ahrlm/

However be aware that the CEO posting as u/Proton_Team kept editing his comments so I wouldn’t trust the current state of it. Plus the proton team/subreddit mods deleted a ton of discussion they didn’t like. Therefore this archive link captured the day after might show more but not all: https://web.archive.org/web/20250116060727/https://old.reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/comments/1i1zjgn/so_that_happened/m7ahrlm/

Some statements were made on Mastodon but these are subsequently deleted, but they’re capture by an archive link: https://web.archive.org/web/20250115165213/https://mastodon.social/@protonprivacy/113833073219145503

I learned about it from an r/privacy thread but true to their reputation the mods there also went on a deletion spree and removed the entire post: https://www.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/1i210jg/protonmail_supporting_the_party_that_killed/

This archive link might show more but I’ve not checked: https://web.archive.org/web/20250115193443/https://old.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/1i210jg/protonmail_supporting_the_party_that_killed/

There’s also this lemmy discussion from the day after but by that point the Proton team had fully kicked in their censorship so I don’t know how much people were aware of (apologies I don’t know how to make a generic lemmy link) https://feddit.uk/post/22741653
