who are keeping detained ISIL under lock and key

Yeah I am not going to excuse a US occupation with ISIS as pretext when it was the US that sponsored ISIS' creation.

I'm completely lost about your last paragraph. It sounds like you're assuming I have some stances that I do not. I support Kurdish autonomy and independence. Tying that into letting more people in non-US-occupied regions fight for a drop of heating or cooking oil is ridiculous. It doesn't have to be one or the other.

Ahh, it's only crude oil? That makes it all legitimate then /s

It's not a grand conspiracy. It's an occupation and illegitimate military intervention. The US has a long track record of doing it, and your people have a long history of supporting it :)

painting the US presence as an occupation

what definition of occupation does not include the deployment of the US military, which proceeded to build a dozen military bases in a territory of another country, which has continuously made filings to the UN about this occupation?

There have been many videos posted before that clearly show oil-carrying trucks

The Syrian conflict is 13 years old. It's ridiculous to expect every article to give you the whole context every time, especially since anything anyone will write about said context will be extremely biased. This conflict had massive misinformation campaigns from all sides.

Evaluate the information for what it is, not for whether it gives you a lecture on the history of the conflict.

SANA is primarily a TV channel, and the articles are usually a summary / transcript of the TV reports. They show videos routinely of the trucks that are very clearly carrying oil through Al-ya'rabiya, which is a border crossing from Syria to Iraq that the US controls.

Why not evaluate the information for what it is rather than checking if it belongs to your preferred camp of propaganda or not?

I got into ocaml recently. I love it. I honestly don't see issues with the syntax, maybe because I haven't used it enough.

Which sites or apps does it not pop up? It is rare for it not to pop up for me.

Here is a docker compose: https://snikket.org/service/resources/docker-compose.yml

You only two configuration options in the config file: domain and email.

Arch works well for gaming. However, depending on what you're doing, you should keep this in mind:

  • on any distro, updates may break things or change the behavior of apps. The difference in arch is that youll update no less than weekly on average, maybe biweekly at worst. This would matter more if you have a complex setup. If you're just using steam, I wouldn't worry
  • arch only uses the latest versions of software. If you ever install something from outside the arch repos, you have to make sure it is compatible with recent versions. Sometimes it may not be.

I've been wanting to do this exact thing. I already have wireguard setup. Please update us if you do this.

This makes matrix even less attractive to me lol. But you're right, that's a very good point.

I have been having some trouble doing this and was wondering if it is a common theme or there is room to make it better.
Sometimes packages wont compile at all and thats fine. But recently I cross compiled some system packages and it bricked my system and was no longer able to ssh into it. I am not asking for help in this specific issue, but want to ask if this is a common occurrence for this kind of setup? It does not seem to be a popular setup

want to run a bittorrent client on a headless server. The server is a raspberry pi so it is limited a bit limited on resources.

Whats your favorite bittorrent client with a good command-line interface?

It is so frustrating seeing how people received the protest.

"it's not working" "Reddit doesn't care" "they can do whatever they want".

Well yeah, if that's the attitude!

How do people not see that the protest disrupted the entirity of Reddit? Just about every weekly active user felt it.

How do they not understand the impact on revenue (especially ads), and how Reddit cannot feasibly sustain it, and were banking on the idea that it'll eventually die down?

The fact of the matter is, if Reddit became worried that the protest will continue in strength indefinitely, they would be forced to roll back. The loss impact would greatly outweigh whatever measly profits they make from this API change that no one will buy.

Yes, this was a lot more for Reddit than just profits. If Reddit had backed down, it would have impact much greater than just third party apps. It remind people once again that users hold the power when they're United. They can decide how to run their communities. But Reddit just could not afford this to happen, which is why they fought to convince you that the protest isn't working and you should back down. And unfortunately many of us did...

Hello friends,

I am looking for a self-hosted task / to-do list app that supports:

  • syncing across devices, preferably self-hosted
  • sort items myself rather than by deadline or built-in priority features, and preserve that order when syncing
  • allow defining arbitrary custom attributes

Some really nice to haves but not absolutely necessary features:

  • treat custom attributes as first-class. i.e. allow showing those attributes on the task-list view, without having to view all details to see it. Or be able to filter or by the attribute or sort by it.
  • allow custom logic for sorting
  • just scriptable features in general would be nice

I have been thinking of making my own, but wanted to see if this exists first.

what is better for single user instance, or maybe something small like under 10 users (no communities)? which is lighter on resources? how much storage should I allocate?

any alternatives to lemmy and kbin that are still somewhat similar?

feel free to list other window managers you've used.

I have been happy with bspwm, but considering trying something else. I love its simplicity and immense customizability. I like that it is shell scriptable, but it is not a deal breaker feature for me.

I like how the binary split model makes any custom partition possible.

I've been dual booting Linux and windows for about two years now, but in those two years, I have never booted into windows, except by mistake.

This made me think about removing windows and just saving that wasted space for Linux. I only ever dual booted for the off chance the peer pressure to play anti cheat games was too great, but so far it hasn't.

For the off chance where I want to play a game that doesn't run well on Linux, is it a good idea to do that via VM instead of dual boot, or is it too much hassle? Will there be performance hit or any issues with those games?

I've read that standard containers are optimized for developer productivity and not security, which makes sense.

But then what would be ideal to use for security? Suppose I want to isolate environments from each other for security purposes, to run questionable programs or reduce attack surface. What are some secure solutions?

Something without the performance hit of VMs
