False dichotomy.
Centraur is when the neck of an quadruped animal gets its neck replaced by an human upper body… So the giraffe centaur would have neither a long human stomach, nor a long human neck.
It is reductionism to say that something isn’t a giraffe, if it doesn’t have a long neck part. Shame on you! 😉
It really depends on the purpose. Sometimes you can hide stuff in unexpected places when there isn’t much interest for other people to find it, or if they don’t even know about it’s existence.
Also sometimes it is good enough to just delay the discovery of something for a while, because its value after a certain time diminished completely.
So, I would argue that sometimes security by obscurity can be useful. But I agree that it generally shouldn’t replace proper encryption.
Btrfs is a filesystem just like ext4, you can mount the root subvolume and upload all files somewhere.
Timeshift is not a backup solution though. Snapshots are built-in with btrfs. So you can install a snapshotter tool like Snapper. But it would be best if you already have partitioned you btrfs filesystem into multiple subvolumes. Like the suggested layout.
Basically, I couldn’t claim capitalism is perfect, but whether replacing the system or not, you need to address the greedy human culture beneath it.
Chicken, egg.
System changes leads to cultural change leads to system change.
You cannot just change the culture, but you can change the system.
No. There are no perfect systems. Every system will require constant vigilance and adaption to work. The point is that the goal of disincentivizing greedy behavior is actually clearly stated and done.
I really don’t think it’s just “economic culture” as you’ve described.
I didn’t say it is just economic culture that is the issue here…
I really don’t think people are accurate about the feeling that “Obtaining and hoarding valuable things” is an act borne out of the laws of our current society.
Also true, but what is? Is your point that it is human nature? I would disagree there, humans have the capacity of acting against greed and selfishness. Question is why they are so often acting greedy and selfish then?
My answer would be two options with both apply to some degree, and there might be more:
Other ideas?
Destinction without difference. Government and economic culture is part of the economic system.
Z should be inverted in the top picture.
But you don’t need to misuse language to assign responsibility.
What? I am interested… How else would you assign the responsibility to people that designed something intentionally bad, if you cannot used language?
“Misuse [of] language” is a concept I cannot even begin to wrap my head around…
Do I loose the warranty if I use language in unintended ways?
It is their responsibility for breaking the system.
You just ‘misused’ language to assign responsibility to people for breaking the system.
Saying the system was always designed for this removes responsibility.
No? Responsibility is not a binary concept. Someone can kill someone else, and would be responsible for that death, and the people around that killer could also share responsibility for not noticeing their unusual behavior. And the system could also be responsible for not giving the killer the support they needed, which drove them to kill someone. And the people that designed or constructed that system could also be responsible for not caring enough about these kinds of deaths to prevent them systemically.
There is a difference is saying “I does what it does” and “what it does is per design”. The latter assigns a responsibility.
In OP Aziraphale gives socienty the responsibility to fix a broken system incrementally and Crowley gives the people in power the fault of intentionally creating a bad system and calls for revolution.
I don’t know what you mean by that. No country or federation in the world is self sufficient. Everyone needs global trade.
I think humanity is really slowly being replaced by LLMs.
Presentation and simple, but stupid and wrong ideas, are preferred over actually researching and understanding situations, isolating the underlying issues and working on ways to resolve or at least lessen them.
Just like LLMs, fewer and fewer people seems to care about a deeper understanding, and more about if the stream of words look ‘good’.
But how can they sell priority boarding then? Just think for one minute about the poor airline companies! /s
Where did I or the original post mention anything about occasional smokers? This post is offensive to those struggling from lifelong addiction to cigarettes, which is almost never a choice.
Where did they mention addiction?
They mention cigarettes, and their bad affects on the people using them and the people around that. Stating that they are bad should not be offensive, because that is stating the facts.
If they are offended by that… IDK. That is something they have to work through themselves.
Gee, that’s such great advice! Why didn’t the lifelong addict think of that one themselves? You just singlehandedly solved addiction.
You are misrepresenting what I said. I said that to get over an addiction you first have to want it. And you say: Just wanting to stop is not enough, and I agree.
Noone chooses being addicted to cigarettes. It’s a mental health disorder just like being addicted to fentanyl or heroin, and a crippling one at that for some. Please educate yourself about what addiction is before defending posts like this. What you are doing is similar to shitting on people for “choosing” their sexuality or gender.
True, however people don’t just wake up one day and be addicted. They have to take it first (willingly or unwillingly), putting a social stigma on the act of using these addictive substances, can at least prevent some people of getting accidentally addicted.
So I would be in favor of supporting people getting out of their addiction, while preventing people to get addicted, by showing what is bad about these drugs and trying to fight against the social component of “taking them makes you cool”.
What are you fighting for? Finding ways of being offended?
What does smoking a cigarette here or there has to do with addiction?
Cigarettes aren’t the only way you can get addicted, you know. You made the connection between cigarettes and addictions, here in this post.
Also wouldn’t it be the best advice against addiction find the will in oneself to stop doing it? If addicted smokers know what their cigarettes do for themselves and others, then they might want to try search for help, to get them off their addiction?
Dishonored created by Bethesda Game Studios? What are you talking about? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bethesda_Game_Studios#Games_developed
Yes, but only in one direction and if you use UDP instead of TCP. Also your MTU needs to be small enough for the packages to fit between the blades of the fan, otherwise that causes package fragmentation.

I spend a lot more money on good Ethernet switches. But at least that works and is easier to manage than Wifi.
H2O is a pretty nice chemical, that makes people drinking it less thristy, and is good for plants and animals as well. Just be careful that you don’t have too much of it, and you are good.
