Trump team barred from agencies amid legal standoff
  • Unfortunately, I feel like trump might simply close a lot of these agencies and replace with his own corrupt ones

    It's one of the things dictators do

    And his fan base will love that he's doing something and blame it on Biden

  • BACK IT UP
  • Yeah. They were pretty adamant lefties were easily triggered a few years ago

    Now they believe lefties are destroying the environment, and are having a temper tantrum over a lie as stupid as people eating pets told by a guy who lies about everything

  • Save 2 seconds boot time, to spend countless hours tweaking and repairing
  • sigh

    Post-Install scripts don't fix 100% of the issue and dynamic lazy linking is a real thing.

    The read-only thing really isn't the main issue here, and everyone including windows has a way to do post installation stuff, and has a service manager

    As an example, a few years ago my system kept erroring due to a gstreamer update. Reboot fixed it (I only remember it because the bug reports were only recently closed).

    Probably because apps had half loaded old versions, and were lazy linking new versions.

    Furthermore, without doing this, self-recovery is difficult. Because if you update something today, and reboot a week later and your system doesn't boot, you have no idea what caused it. You'd have to keep rolling back. If you do it on reboot, you can snapshot, update, and if system fails, then rollback automatically after losing nothing.

    There's lots of good reasons

  • Save 2 seconds boot time, to spend countless hours tweaking and repairing
  • Cool. You do that

    Are you going to install multiple versions of every library?

    What if it's a security fix and it's in issue in your desktop environment, etc

    Coreutils and glibc aren't the only libraries on your system

    Some apps might use static linking too so might need to be restarted. Other libraries might be loaded long after the app is started. If you swap libraries half way, it's not great too

    What if you're copying large files half way and run out of space. That nuked my Linux mint install

    Linux distros don't just copy Windows. They wouldn't put in the extra effort unless they have to.

    Do you think a bunch of developers sit around and don't evaluate why they're doing things? And instead just copy from Windows? Nah mate. They do it for a reason

    The cool thing about doing it this way is if boot fails, you can rollback easily too. If you're installing core components randomly, your system might only fall to boot a week later

  • 'Democrat propaganda': Marjorie Taylor Greene plans to team up with Musk to defund NPR
  • Don't forget, an important component of dictatorships is controlling the media

    Trump can simply encourage violence against their employees and make them untenable in other ways. Like bring them to court at one of his bribed justices to cost them money

    There's lots of ways to kill a company in a way that isn't obvious when you're a dictator

    Just remember, Mafia bosses won't tell you they'll injure you. They use coercion and subtle threats

  • BACK IT UP
  • Why shouldn't they be able to sue cigarette companies or companies releasing unsafe products?

    Why should my insurance be higher whilst cigarette companies are benefiting off their shit marketing

  • [Resolved] Federation issues with lemmy.ml
  • I had interactions like this person: https://lemmy.world/comment/13434977

    A lot of them seem to be like the crazy Facebook crowd (not all).

    But that being said, unfortunately, as Lemmy grows, I'm seeing more of that in general where we slowly move away from a "scientific" oriented approach, to half-truths and biased information.

    So you're probably right.

    But yeah, people do complain a disproportionate amount about them (I feel like a lot of people screaming "tankie", are similar to the trump crowd people)..

  • Democrats flee X for Bluesky amid Musk-Trump alliance
  • Same as Facebook

    Facebook is poorly moderated, and nothing I've reported gets removed. It doesn't matter how abusive it is

    It's probably the main platform which is making people dumber at the moment
