I think I'm misunderstanding something about snapshots on fedora
Just installed fedora to replace windows 10. I've used mint and ubuntu as a general purpose os in the past but it's been a few years and I was never a power user, just learned what I needed as I went.
I remember it being important to use timeshift to safeguard against breaking something with updates, but it seems like timeshift doesn't work on fedora. Rather, you can get it to work on fedora but it's not supported. The thing that is confusing me is, searching for a way to do snapshots on fedora, I haven't really found what I expected? There's nothing I can see in software or flathub, timeshift or the alternatives mentioned on forums. I'm think I'm going to proceed with figuring out snapper using btrfs assistant as a gui...
But, given that I remember timeshift being basically recommended all the time to everyone when I used to use linux, I can't find anyone all that interested in using snapshots with fedora. Is it not necessary with fedora? Does fedora somehow handle that already? I can make do with the information I can find, but I'm wondering why there is so little information about it at all. I can't really find anything that suggests it's important to make snapshots. Or maybe I'm just looking in the wrong places? Can someone help me understand this better?

Nice try, but this is not suicide. The point of the cartoon is irony. The Klansman is a symbol of racial hatred who historically used lynching as a tool of terror. He is being killed by his own symbol, the Confederate flag. It's a commentary on how hate consumes itself. You're purposely interpreting this as a commentary on suicide. This is like seeing a war movie where a soldier is shot and claiming it's offensive to people who lost a loved one to a school shooting. The method of death is the same, but the context is entirely different.
Shut the fuck up now.
Anything is offensive to someone.
Your abbadon name from the hebrew bible just as your 420 suffix.
And yet I hope for hanging deaths for KKK members, but not for my friends
The two will never overlap
I am sure that most of the bipeds who find this shirt offensive are White supremacists, but to be honest I can see somebody disliking it solely for its violent content; some people are so squeamish that even seeing oppressors dying can activate a visceral reaction.
I know that hangings are relatively mundane, but try to imagine somebody applying sharp objects to an SS trooper’s particularly sensitive areas and maybe you’ll understand.
It isn't your imagination: Google Cloud is flooding the zone
Aside from Alphabet’s own forays into AI, they’re also selling pickaxes to most other AI prospectors.
It’s a story deSouza likes to tell in numbers. In a conversation with this editor, he notes several times that nine out of the top 10 AI labs use Google’s infrastructure. He also says that nearly all generative AI unicorns run on Google Cloud, that 60% of all GenAI startups worldwide have chosen Google as their cloud provider, and that the company has lined up $58 billion in new revenue commitments over the next two years, which represents more than double its current annual run rate.Asked what percentage of Google Cloud’s revenue comes from AI companies, he offers instead that “AI is resetting the cloud market, and Google Cloud is leading the way, especially with startups.”
The strategy extends beyond simple customer acquisition. Google offers AI startups $350,000 in cloud credits, access to its technical teams, and go-to-market support through its marketplace. Google Cloud also provides what deSouza describes as a “no compromise” AI stack — from chips to models to applications — with an “open ethos” that gives customers choice at every layer.
The approach reflects both opportunity and necessity. In a market where companies can go “from being a startup to being a multibillion-dollar company in a very short period of time,” as deSouza puts it, capturing future unicorns before they mature could prove more valuable than fighting over today’s giants.
“Companies love the fact that they can get access to our AI stack, they can get access to our teams to understand where our technologies are going,” deSouza says during our interview. “They also love that they’re getting access to enterprise-grade Google class infrastructure.”
Google’s infrastructure play got even more ambitious recently, with reporting revealing the company’s behind-the-scenes maneuvering to expand its custom AI chip business. According to The Information, Google has struck deals to place its tensor processing units (TPUs) in other cloud providers’ data centers for the first time, including an agreement with London-based Fluidstack that includes up to $3.2 billion in financial backing for a New York facility.
Competing directly with AI companies while simultaneously providing them infrastructure requires … finesse. Google Cloud provides TPU chips to OpenAI and hosts Anthropic’s Claude model through its Vertex AI platform, even as its own Gemini models compete head-to-head with both. (Google Cloud’s parent company, Alphabet, also owns a 14% stake in Anthropic, per New York Times court documents obtained earlier this year, though when asked directly about Google’s financial relationship with Anthropic, deSouza calls the relationship a “multi-layered partnership,” then quickly redirects me to Google Cloud’s model marketplace, noting that customers can access various foundation models.)

Trump's attacks on Comey and leadership shifts in prosecutors' office could undermine case, legal experts say
The indictment of former FBI Director James Comey on Thursday marked the culmination of President Trump's yearslong desire to see one of his political foes punished after the bureau's investigation into his 2016 presidential campaign and Russian meddling in that election.
But the president's long-held ire toward Comey, coupled with his latest comments cheering the federal charges brought against the former FBI chief, could aid defense lawyers in a potential bid to have the case against Comey tossed.
"In this case, the facts before the indictment and even comments Trump made after the indictment provide strong factual evidence that Mr. Comey is the victim of either selective or vindictive prosecution," Gene Rossi, a former federal prosecutor who worked at the Justice Department for nearly 30 years, told CBS News.

Clarence Thomas gives bonkers reason for SCOTUS to tear up settled laws
Justice Clarence Thomas is finding increasingly creative ways to justify reshaping long-standing laws.
During a rare appearance at Catholic University’s Columbus School of Law in Washington, D.C., on Thursday, the George H.W. Bush–appointed justice said the Supreme Court should take a more critical approach to settled precedent, arguing that decided cases are not “the gospel,” ABC News reported.
Thomas, 77, compared his Supreme Court colleagues to passengers on a train, and said: ”We never go to the front to see who’s driving the train, where is it going. And you could go up there in the engine room, find it’s an orangutan driving the train, but you want to follow that just because it’s a train.”
He reasoned that some precedents were simply “something somebody dreamt up and others went along with.”

Thousands of Palestinians return to Gaza City amid escalating Israeli offensive
cross-posted from: hexbear.net/post/6255443
Deadly Israeli attacks continued to target Palestinian civilians on 24 September as Tel Aviv’s forces pushed deeper into Gaza City as part of a new operation to force the resistance into submission.While many have fled, tens of thousands of others are unwilling to leave their homes. Some have also returned to their homes in Gaza City after being displaced toward the south.
“We affirm that more than 900,000 Palestinians remain steadfast in Gaza City, holding onto their right to stay and firmly rejecting forced displacement and expulsion to the south, despite the horrific bombardment and genocidal crimes carried out by the Israeli occupation,” the Gaza Government Media Office said in a statement on Wednesday.
Those fleeing have been ordered to head south toward Al-Mawasi – a previously declared “safe zone” which has been relentlessly targeted throughout the war.
Al-Mawasi has been hit with over 100 airstrikes since the start of the genocide in 2023, killing a total of 2,000 people, the media office went on to say.

The Finnish Marticulation Examination to move away from Linux-based exam enviroment due to perceived threat of dwindling support on student devices
Context: The Finnish Marticulation Examination is a national examination required to qualify for entry into a university in Finland (not strictly required, but the vast majority will have passed the exam before university). These are basically the final exams of Finnish "high school". The current digital system used for the exams is called "Abitti", which is a Debian-based OS. The students boot into the system with provided USB-sticks.
In the linked article, there is the following statement (in Finnish):
Computer technology advances quickly, and the current Abitti works in fewer and fewer computers. The threat is that computers that can run the current Linux-environment won't be available in the near future.
The new system ("Abitti 2"), which is planned to be used by Autumn 2026, uses locked-down Web-apps written for each supported OS. Support is planned for Windows, Mac, and ChromeOS. Linux support "needs further investigation". As I understand it, the current situation is that the old Linux USB-stick method (now called "Abitti 2 student-stick") is still used as a backup for those without Windows, Mac, or ChromeOS.
I think the main premise of Linux-bootable computers not being available in the near future is extremely dystopian. Thoughts?

The last time I looked at this, it did not really add up. The “lack of supoort” was more for BIOS boot than anything. When they say “Linux”, they mean their ancient implementation of it.
It would be a real shame if Linux lost foothold in its own country out of ignorance and bias.

Cosa si cuce nel fediverso?
Ciao a tutti 😀
Condividere il progetto su cui si sta lavorando può essere un buon modo per infondere coraggio a chi voglia cimentarsi nell’arte del cucito.
È poco che cucio, ma la passione si è trasformata in lavoro in poco tempo pur non cancellando come fosse il mio mondo in bianco e nero, senza ago e filo nella macchina o nelle mani, il mondo prima di adesso.
‘Cucire’ era mia nonna che aggiungeva i polsini alle giacche ormai troppo corte.
‘Cucire’ era un’amica speciale che per regalo di nozze mi scriveva una lettera chiusa da una busta cucita a mano con la scritta ‘Auguri!’, ricamata sul cartoncino.
‘Cucire’ era la sarta della merceria del paese che trasformava i pantaloni lisi dei miei figli in panta-toppe.
‘Cucire’ era tante cose, ma non ero io.
Oggi condivido invece i progetti su cui sto lavorando: delle camice di seta con taglio a kimono. Ancora mi chiedo come io mi sia ritrovata qui. Ma mi sento a casa. Una casa cucita su misura.
E voi, in che progetto state mettendo le mani? Rattoppate? Ricamate? Cucite scarpe scucite? Cucite per sopravvivere?
Aspetto di leggervi

impressioni con le unghie smolecolate in parti incontabili (non mi so tagliare le unghie e faccio i casinetti)
Anche oggi è sabato, e quindi nuovamente non c’è nulla di interessante da dire qui. (Ma seriamente eh, non so perché i miei sabati sono così maledetti, solo in questo giorno sono così inispirata…) Per fortuna, di argomenti noiosi ne ho sempre qualcuno da parte, quindi per stavolta non soccomberò… magra consolazione. Beh, tra tante cose inutili mi stavo in realtà chiedendo come mai quando mi taglio le unghie devo fare sempre un grosso casino; e ok, forse questa sotto sotto è un po’ divertente. 💥In genere non ci penso, perché faccio direttamente tutto per terra; non nel senso che bacio il pavimento mentre mi taglio le unghie, ma semplicemente faccio cadere tutto per terra, perché è più comodo, perché non ho pezzi da raccogliere per buttare poi, semplicemente passo l’aspirapolvere e tanti saluti… che in effetti è un tipo di casino, ma non quello intrinseco che voglio dire in questo momento. Il vero casino, piuttosto, l’ho visto l’altra sera, perché essendo tardi non potevo aspirare ancora più tardi, e allora ho dovuto fare sulla scrivania, e… 🤪
Caspita, e questo è un casino. Perché fare il tagliamento in modo più o meno preciso con non più di un paio di colpi mi risulta sempre praticamente impossibile, e quindi a furia di fare si ottengono anche queste piccole briciole di unghia, a parte i pezzi grossi. E non sono per niente poche. Però mi chiedo se sia un problema mio, e in quel caso quindi non sarebbe altro che un problema di skill (ormai li colleziono quelli, non c’è un cazzo da fare!), o se la cosa è comune o quantomeno aspettata… anche perché non sono l’unica persona ad avere solo 2 mani in totale di cui solo 1 dominante, quindi potrei aspettarmi di non essere la sola ad avere difficoltà con il tagliare le unghie soprattutto (…ma non unicamente) sull’opposta. 😑Il colmo, però, a questo punto, è che, nonostante tutta questa fatica, comunque le unghie vengono indecenti alla fine, se non uso anche la limetta… E anche a questo ci ho pensato solo stavolta, perché stavolta avevo dimenticato di farlo, essendo che la limetta la tengo nel cassetto, e quindi avrei dovuto alzarmi dalla scrivania per prenderla subito dopo aver finito con le forbici, ma sul momento mi seccavo, e più tardi mi sono dimenticata; quindi, quando il giorno dopo mi sono risvegliata, ho realizzato per bene. 😵
Con la foto, anche se pochino, si vede… e un’unghia l’ho fatta lievemente concava al centro (non so neanche io come!), e un’altra unghia l’ho fatta poco più corta sulla destra rispetto alla sinistra, e così via, e che fastidio!!! Menomale che la limetta aggiusta… però… mentre anche questo non è chiaro se sia un problema mio o no, il dimenticare passaggi e finire a fare le cose a pezzi metà un giorno e metà un altro è certamente indicazione di skill mancanti. (Morirò con cotanto fregio, si vede.) 💖

Palestinian statehood: Recognition amidst erasure? (25min Vid)
After almost 2 years of Israel’s genocide in Gaza, Western powers have issued synchronised declarations recognising Palestinian statehood – a diplomatic move seemingly born out of the immense public pressure they face. What’s missing from the story is the concrete measures those governments could take to stop the slaughter in Gaza, as well as their complicity by continuing to supply weapons to Israel.

How do you handle emulator controls when using a controller?
One thing I’ve run into as I’ve been playing some of my retro games is that, when using a controller with an Nvidia Shield + Moonlight or even with just a Steam Deck, the emulators often have a massive amount of controls that I can’t really interact with. All of the controls are hotkey based, for save states, loading states, etc.
Most of the games I’m wanting to play are controller based, but it feels like the tools to enjoy them are all keyboard based. Do you just use the built in save functionalities? How does it all work?

Thailand: Legal Committee Pushes for Immediate Halt to China’s Rare Earth Mining in Myanmar over cross-border pollution
Cross-posted from lemmy.sdf.org/post/43049861
Archived[...]
[Anuk Pitukthanin, Director of the Mekong Studies Centre] said the rare earth mining issue must be managed beyond local communities and treated as a regional concern.
Kanwee Suebsaeng, list MP for the Fair Party and deputy chair of the House committee [in Tahiland] said the House considered the Clean Air Bill yesterday, 25 September. One section deals with transboundary pollution. He asked the drafters how Thailand could bring civil action against foreign operators whose activities in neighbouring countries harm Thailand.
[...]
Zung Ting from the Kachin environmental network reported that conditions in Myanmar’s Kachin State have worsened over the past decade, and even more since the 2021 coup.
Kachin holds vast resources amid high global demand for rare earths to feed clean energy supply chains and stockpiles in the United States, the European Union and Japan. Mining sites are located in Kachin, with China playing a major role in extracting ore and adding value.
He said China focuses on processing to add value at home, while avoiding mining on its own soil due to severe environmental harm. Chinese policy shifted to limit domestic rare earth mining by Chinese firms, pushing operations into several areas of Myanmar. Activity rose sharply after 2015, then increased again after the 2021 coup.
[...]
The absence of control is alarming. Rare earth mining sites in Kachin have increased by more than 60 percent, with over 5,000 chemical ponds across about 400 mines. Similar mines and ponds have spread to Shan State. The impact falls heavily on local communities and indigenous peoples, with severe flooding every year. More countries are now moving into Myanmar to seek rare earth ores.
[...]
Pollution from these rare earth mines is now affecting Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai and reaches the Mekong. He urged all parties to learn from the disaster in Kachin and prevent further cross-border pollution.
[...]
Assoc Prof Dr Narumon Thabchumpon of the Faculty of Political Science, Chulalongkorn University, said political debates often get stuck on territorial limits. She proposed the no-harm principle. States must not cause serious harm to other states, and sovereignty comes with responsibility.
She urged ASEAN to table cross-border pollution from rare earth mining at the summit in November under the ASEAN Agreement on Transboundary Haze Pollution. She also called for talks on environmental and health security under RBC frameworks. Local authorities should be strengthened, with early warning systems and buffer zones put in place.

I should have known from the beginning that we(sterners) never intended to force Israel into accepting a two-states implementation.
I naively hoped that we wanted to enforce international law along the 1967 borders for a time, but we proved instead that we never intended to in the first place, and probably never will since Israel is an ally.
Yet our people still consider that we did something. The only thing our empty words and lack of plan aimed to do was to appease the global outrage, it worked.
Then, the last available alternative is wars, from the beginning it was always war, since neither the west nor Israel intend to let palestinians have a state. Or submit, or wait a more favorable time.
Let's fantasize that Israel ever wanted a two-states solution, then it could ask for Palestine's demilitarization, collaboration to chase down israelis enemies, a sincere acceptation from the current antizionist states(, including with a clear pro-zionist propaganda in these states), and could take written engagements that it will eternally support the palestinian demands towards euro-americans for a.n just/acceptable territory in exchange for Israel.
Claiming that peace with palestinians is impossible is a lie, they simply don't want to share the sacred lands. Netanyahu is the same as he was when he opposed the Oslo accords, his concerns for security are a pretext for grabbing more lands, and his bad-faith arguments and behavior are proofs of that.
I can only blindly hope that wars aren't the last alternative.
Again, i feel so stupid to have ever believed that we(sterners) intended to force Israel into accepting a two-states implementation, tsk.

Behind the scene at Kamerastore
Hello there,

Dedication of the Kamerastore crew is amazing.
I don’t know how she keep being so calm in there, I would disappear for a month in this store and open every box and folder 🤩

Humanoid robots are only hyped because GenAI is hyped and GenAI is hyped because Altman and his other conmen are scamming the World out of resources on the promise of AGI because "Scale Is All You Need", a very convenient trope for VCs as they have no other idea beside dominating a market by scaling.
So... if the GenAI bubble does pop (and the HBR article on workslop lets me hope that it has started) then I don't see how humanoid robot would not. I also imagine manufacturers are less prone to hype because they have been robots already for decades. Even some services like hospitals do have robots for cleaning, delivery, etc. Sure they don't look humanoid but it's still a baseline to compare with in terms of performance and price.
Edit: if you want to explore the OSHW FLOSS side of this check github.com/huggingface/lerobot but my own understanding is that there is no radical progress. Sure we might be inching away at "solving" robotics but nothing changed except few components getting a bit cheaper thanks to smartphone then in turn drone or obviously GPUs.
Edit2: if you don't feel like reading the article just watch the 2 videos by Roland Johansson on normal hand vs hand without touch, it's fascinating.

What to Look for Before Buying a Small Business
Some business owners sell their business. The buyer who is planning to buy it must check some necessary details and can purchase it.
Starting your own business from scratch is different than buying an already running business and altering it. Buying a business involves plenty of processes, and everything should be done carefully. Before buying a small business, certain factors must be considered. All those factors are listed in this blog along with some special requirements. Continue to read and explore more.
Key Factors Behind Selling a Business
The reasons behind a business owner selling a business are numerous. Some of the factors include,
- The business owner might plan to retire.
- The funds from selling this business could help kick-start another idea.
- When the business sales go in a decreasing pattern.
- Sometimes, the business owner may shift to another location.
- If any disagreements occur with the business partners, the business owner may sell the business.
It is not certain that the business owners will sell their business in good condition. There will be some flaws and problems. Therefore, if you plan to purchase the business, consider the following factors, which are listed below.
1. No Undisclosed Issues: If the business has any undisclosed issues, then they must be resolved properly. When a buyer shows interest in buying the business, the first factor to be checked is the issues. If they buy the business with issues, then it may create a loss for them.
2. Business with Solid Brand Recognition: Some buyers check whether the business has a solid brand recognition in the market. Purchasing a well-recognized business minimizes future workload and marketing efforts.
3. Business is a Profitable One: The business that is going to be purchased by the buyers must not incur a loss. It must be a profitable one. Buying a business that is on a losing path is not a good decision because bringing it to a profitable path from loss is a strenuous process and takes a long time.
4. Build a Transferable Business: In some types of business, a large client base will be there for the business owner. If the business owner changes, then the clients will regret that business. So, while choosing a business to buy, check whether it is transferable or not.
5. Business Condition: Another factor to be considered before buying is whether the products used in the business are in good condition, whether the inventories can be used again, are the staff working there are skilled, etc. Also, the financial reports and sales patterns of the business must be identified. These are the factors that you must check in a business if you’re going to buy it.
The step-by-step process followed while purchasing the business is as follows.
- Initially, the buyer must do self-analysis. Whether they have the interest to run that business, the financial availability to make investments, etc.
- The next step is analyzing the business processes and their scope in the business market. It helps in understanding the sales performance, challenges in it, etc.
- Further, have a conversation with experts and accountants about the purchasing process and make the right decision.
- After taking effective decisions, approach the seller and check the condition of the business. Its work process, employee status, inventory condition, cash flow statements, etc., are the factors that must be checked.
- If a decision is taken to buy the business, negotiate with the seller and check for any legal issues. If everything is okay, then the business can be purchased.
Purchasing a business and developing it is a good choice, but its success depends on the already existing structure of the business. So, if you’re opting for purchasing a business, research clearly and choose wisely.
