Linus responds to Hellwig - "the pull request you objected to DID NOT TOUCH THE DMA LAYER AT ALL... if you as a maintainer feel that you control who or what can use your code, YOU ARE WRONG." in c/asahilinux

Precisely my point.

Don't know about anyone else, but I'm very pleased to see Linus talking like this. I wish more of my relationships both professional and personal could operate with this level of straightforwardness.

I wouldn't have known, it's very granular and not for the faint of heart (or technically limited.) Just what OP asked for!

Hey I know the feeling and voted for the guy; it's a damn shame Clinton doubled his vote share here.

I did read your links, they reflect the reality that Bernie didn't have enough votes, particularly in red states. Conspiracy theories and upset delegates simply cannot paper over that.

They did vote for him

Certainly not in numbers that got him nominated. And of course the DNC boogyman that is fronted here had nothing to do with that turn out whatsoever. The superdelegates didn't even matter his numbers were so low and she beat him by a factor of two in Texas. So much for the canard of progressiveness in red states.

And yet they would not turn out to nominate Bernie... Talk about lazy.

What is your favorite book? in c/[email protected]

[–] Hominine 1 points 2 weeks ago

My son caught me off guard asking me this question the other day. My first reply was The Stand, but there's a little book called Lying by Sam Harris that was pretty important to me.

Anyway, the reason I really replied was to say that many of John Grisham's books are kind of like candy, they just go down so quick. Fun reads by and large; The Partner is probably my favorite.

Wow, the echo-chamber vibes are strong on this one.

Then it is on you to engage with the replies to your comment instead of whinging into the void.

Mark Ruffalo spoke about what’s next, and told his followers we have our “marching orders”.
"No to Trump/Vance. No to the right-wing Christian religious takeover of our nation. Nothing wrong with Christianity; just shouldn’t be running a nation birthed from freedom of religion.”

Appreciate someone saying this loud and proud.

First Look: Riven Gameplay Reveal (youtu.be)

As an older, and increasingly jaded gamer, I'm having a hard time remembering when I've last been so excited over a release as this one. Riven is seemingly getting the gold-standard treatment with a ground-up remake that not only utilizes 3D (and VR) to give depth to the world but also adds new content while keeping the visuals near one-to-one.
My favorite part of Riven personally is the excellent soundtrack, I can't wait to hear it while wandering around and exploring this space all over again. Cheers, Lemmy!

The NYPD is using social media to target critics. That brings its own set of worries (apnews.com)

Michael Hallett, a professor of criminology at the University of North Florida who studied the effects of “Cops,” said he viewed the NYPD’s forays into social media as a natural response to a digital media ecosystem that rewards speed and sensationalism.

The proliferation of body-camera footage and, increasingly, drones, have made it easy for police to create their own reality series, free of delays imposed by the TV gear and network schedules, he said.

“They now have a proactive and sophisticated messaging system that is designed and intended to deliver messages on behalf of the police agenda,” Hallett added. “In the negotiation for control of the message, that gives them the upper hand.”

Fingerprint unlock for Pixel in-screen readers (self.tasker)

Not sure if this is a log that Android 14 exposed but when I first got my 7a I could not get fingerprint actions working. Anyway it works now.

When setting a Logcat Entry event under Profiles, search for a "Biometrics/AuthenticationClient" Component in the log. Then try filtering for something like "onAuthenticated(true), ID:123456789", the individual finger ID. Tasks can then be fired off on unlock.
