Isn't Mozilla VPN just rebadged Mullvad (but you have to identify yourself)?

Doesn't MS have a half stake in OpenAI ? Or have I got the wrong company?

I don't exist. I had a meeting and voted. It was unanimous.

People who urge crowds to burn down hotels full of refugees should absolutely be arrested. This isn't free speech. It's far-right thuggery. Also, you didn't beat shit. The French military did. in c/mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world

I get that you're angry you can't get a job after three years at uni and 50k in debt.

I get that you'll never have a home that you own.

I get that having children will be an unplanned, largely unfunded activity for you.

I'm get that being a twenty something influencer has cred, but as your retirement age goes up and up faster than your chronological age and the state keeps raiding your personal pension that you're forced to keep funding, spare a thought for the other influencers of 55 years that you'll become and those diminishing returns.

But this hill that you're stating that you wish to die on isn't the cleverest way to solve the previously stated problems, whether the migrants are illegal or just 'Mercans claiming to want to avoid Trump but actually looking for free NHS healthcare because they're getting old.

Console yourself that the political classes (stated in court) that they much prefer people from any other country over you, and that is why you to be a productive member of the populace and keep quiet.

They can't go to far down this line, they'll have antitrust issues. They're a mature company doing what mature companies do and letting the middle (marketing) managers who couldn't run a bath, run the company by focusing on cost reduction not earnings growth, and bury it.

We saw this with HP. Remember how we all used to buy HP printers for Linux? I still have my 1990s - please god - LaserJet and can still get toner.

Nothing significant. Just best wishes for anyone applying (reddthat.com)
 

Went to uni last century here in the UK (native Brit).

Much much more difficult now for you all and I feel for you all. The idea of fees for our elite students is pure folly. Shame on them.

Good luck all.

Removal of old packages (reddthat.com)

I'm sure I saw somewhere some while ago a way to remove old/obsolete packages from an system-upgraded install. Packages that wouldn't be removed because they're dependencies somewhere still.

For example, the xorg drivers can be removed from my F40 when upgraded to f41 install. As if I'd installed it from the to-be f41 everything iso.

I can't find it from the documentation; can someone point me in the right direction, please.

I can't quite remember but I think it was an official Fedora package that one 'installs' which contains a script to remove obsolete packages from the prior Fedora version.

UPDATE: found it. https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/upgrading-fedora-offline/#sect-clean-up-retired-packages

[Possible bug] Sharing a post to Firefox makes Voyager into Firefox, and I can't get back! (reddthat.com)

Picking a random post from the list of posts in Voyager and then using the share facility to share it to Firefox makes Voyager look like Firefox with the address bar and so on.

However, when I want to go back to using Voyager flicking back - partial right swipe on my Pixel 7 Pro w/Niagara launcher - doesn't do anything useful and I'm still in a version/instance of Firefox with the Voyager icon.

Can someone double check that this does/not happen to them to an up-to-date Android phone before I report it, please?

Thank-you in advance

UPDATE: looks like it is my end from your comments, thank-you people. I'm going back from whence I came, shame faced. 😳

I'm glad. Voyager is my Lemmy of choice!

Maybe it's Niagara. There's a couple of stability fixes coming through. So here's hoping! Meanwhile I have a reeducation class to attend! 🤣

[pre-noob] What's the process for migrating from, in my case, Alexa, Smart Life to Home Assistant? (reddthat.com)
 

Hello all,

What do I actually do when I finally have a running instance (of containerised HA on a Raspberry Pi)? Delete all the toys from Alexa and Smart Life and start again in Home Assistant?

Is deleting everything the intelligent way to go rather than trying to transition?

My Google-foo is failing I did try to find an answer in Lemmy/Reddit/HA. Apologies if I miss an obvious place.

Thank-you in advance.

Is there a community for instrument learners, particularly piano/keyboard? (reddthat.com)
 

My early teen cousin is learning to play keyboard/piano. She likes to compose her own songs, and she's good at that, but perhaps could use some help with the basis rhythm.

I thought that a book of rhythms might help. Something like this, but it's going to be the wrong era for her on the surface, although the rhythms repeat through the ages. Encyclopedia of Piano Rhythm Patterns: Popular Piano Rhythms and How to Play Them https://amzn.eu/d/2JdTsST

Please point me in the right direction. Thank-you in advance

[Reddit] avoiding Reddit links in Lemmy. (reddthat.com)
 

Hi all

Is there an Android client that allows me to avoid Reddit posts which are currently crossposted and overwhelming my Lemmy timeline?

Something like Domain exclude as on the Relay for Reddit client.

Thank-you in advance
