you could add another layer of swap in between ram and disk by using zram. as it compresses swap in ram with a very fast compressing algorithm it effectively expands the ram size

btop makes the dedicated gpu turn on, wasting energy and disrupting its power saving. yes, this can not be disabled in btop, so it happily shows no load on the gpu. gee, thanks.

Stalin alone:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Stalin

Conversely, his totalitarian government has been widely condemned for overseeing mass repressions, ethnic cleansing, executions, and famines which caused the deaths of millions.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excess_mortality_in_the_Soviet_Union_under_Joseph_Stalin

This contained official records of 799,455 executions (1921–1953),[8] around 1.7 million deaths in the Gulag,[9][10] some 390,000[11] deaths during the dekulakization forced resettlement, and up to 400,000 deaths of persons deported during the 1940s,[12] with a total of about 3.3 million officially recorded victims in these categories.[13] According to historian Stephen Wheatcroft, approximately 1 million of these deaths were “purposive” while the rest happened through neglect and irresponsibility.[2] The deaths of at least 5.5 to 6.5 million[14] persons in the Soviet famine of 1932–1933 are sometimes, though not always, included with the victims of the Stalin era.[2][15]

don’t know, tell me with sources, please

How many millions died under Stalin, Mao, Che?

prevent body shaming by only showing obese/disfigured people so society accepts it as a healthy norm

Yes, that’s what I meant. Looks like my response was not very comprehensible, sorry about that.

I did not recommend to block the trailer for them but to have the suggestion of using blocks in front of the wheels to be enough in the conversation about that trailer being in danger of rolling away.

I’m not sure I understand that

Why wouldn’t you? I suppose they would be thankful because you show considerations about their stuff and wellbeing. Some wooden blocks in front of the weels should probably be enough.

Do not use Microsofts Telemetry Studio Code but Code-OSS or VSCodium.

Regarding your question Code is not powerful enough of what we do at work. There we use IntelliJ IDEA. Our frontend guys use Code as it’s enough for them and they usually are not that quality oriented, be it their tools or their product. Sadly mediocre is enough.

You must spin it two times, not three.

Once in a while I check the installed packages for a possible dependency on GTK and when I find a program which has one, I look for an alternative to have one dependency less.

The last time I replaced simple-scan with skanlite and it is a much much better scanning program and with a more pleasant ui on top.

Ah, “Remarkable” is a brand, never heard of them and never would have guessed as the “R” is uppercase at the start of a sentence

Yup. Have been running an FTP server on my Kobo Touch over its WiFi. Kinda neat.

Well, to be fair a few k is not expensive for medical equipment which is not a mass market, needs certification and usually lasts decades. It’s like no money.

Why should an employee witnessing a crime contact the thief? And even tell their name and send their phone number?

This was terrifying to read 😨

Indeed. But they want to make money, so they rise the interest rate to make even more money and cut losses on failed debt repayments.

They solely exist to make money by extorting the people in debt. Who would have guessed?

So? Never have debts.

“Consumer” debts should ethically not exist as consumers just consume the money and are therefore not able to pay it back as it is not an “investment” debt, which has the chance to succeed.
