  • People are getting upset about this, but it only applies within the country where Roskomnadzor has authority, and it’s temporary pending further review.

    Which means that now, for example, Republicans can file to have any extension that “provides or facilitates woke content”. To put forth one (1) such case.

    Idiot laws are idiot and must be fought at every point, in particular if you have more power than one (1) mere citizen. What Mozilla is doing is just announcing to the world they’re open to spreading their legs before the MAGAs.

    Mozilla, as a law-abiding organization, must at least acknowledge the requests of a regulatory agency within its own country.

    Insert Nick Fury “I recognize the council has made an ass-stupid decision”.

    Whether you agree with their requests or not, Roskomnadzor has governmental authority in this context within Russia.


  • I mean, if you are already know you’re using GCC, knowing to browse the manpage for info is easier.

    The problem with manpages is, in my experience, they are vastly ill-suited for the “modern” / desktop-like workflow of the distros. They’re point is they’re not the tool for that, they are reference manuals focused on the tool, not training pamphlets focused on the use. Like, what is the manpage for “my desktop icons disappeared”? Even assuming there’s one. Or for “my desktop is in Italian but my start menu is in Swahili”? Or for “after video driver update and reboot my screen is monochrome”? Heck, for most of those even figuring out a proper info page (the “competitor” of man page) would be next to impossible.

    So, there is of course merit to reading the documentation. But for that someone has to first isolate the workflow and write that documentation. I’m not interested in the man page for “steel” or for “lacrimals”; I need the usage pamphlet for “Slicing onions with a kitchen knife”.

    when your child understands that there is no school on weekends

    “I did not lie to you, we just all as parents agreeded to make the same offering to our children”.

    (it’s not even half lying; setting agreements as adults is what bulding a society is about)
