If you are surprised by that most Americans want more rights for cars and trucks than for people you have not been paying attention.

eksb@programming.devto Trans Memes@lemmy.blahaj.zone•They made the fucking trucks transEnglish18·1 day ago
eksb@programming.devto Firefox@lemmy.ml•Name some default Firefox settings you think don't make sense.English22·2 days agoThat closing the last tab closes the window instead of leaving you with a blank tab. And that there is not even an option in the UI to change this, and you have to go to
about:config->browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab.
eksb@programming.devto Autism@lemmy.world•It's Saturday 04/04/2026. Hey, What's Going On!English3·5 days agoI went shopping with my partner for a lamp. On the positive side, when store employees get chatty, my partner handles the smalltalk. On the negative side, I knew what I wanted the lamp to do; my partner had vague feelings about how they wanted the lamp to make them feel. We did not find a lamp that instilled the right feelings.
It was not a total loss, I bought a lamp for my work desk so I can see better for writing and soldering. And I got some poffertjes from a street vendor.
eksb@programming.devto Linux@lemmy.ml•Timing Flaw in systemd Cleanup Enables Root Privilege EscalationEnglish211·8 days agoNothing in the Qualys report nor the Ubuntu page for the CVE indicate that there is something to be fixed in systemd, only that you can create systemd-tmpfiles rules that will expose the vulnerability in snapd.
What do you think systemd-tmpfiles needs to do differently?
eksb@programming.devto Linux@lemmy.ml•Timing Flaw in systemd Cleanup Enables Root Privilege EscalationEnglish411·8 days agoYet another critical vulnerability in systemd
This is a critical vulnerability in snapd, not systemd. It sounds like it could also be exploited if something other than systemd deleted the files in
/tmp/. Or if/tmp/was not mounted.
eksb@programming.devto Cooking @lemmy.world•KitchenAid redesigned its iconic mixer so you can set an exact speedEnglish3·10 days agoI replaced my KitchenAid with an Ankarsrum. No regrets.
eksb@programming.devto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is no one held accountable if a driverless EV ran over a pedestrian?English204·17 days agoDepends where. In America, human drivers are not held accountable for running over pedestrians, so I am not sure why a computer would be.
eksb@programming.devto World News@lemmy.world•Trump threatens to 'obliterate' Iran's power plants if Strait of Hormuz isn't opened in 48 hoursEnglish1·17 days agoI do not understand why you seem so convinced that I voted for Jill Stein. I did not. I am well aware that she is terrible.
eksb@programming.devto World News@lemmy.world•Trump threatens to 'obliterate' Iran's power plants if Strait of Hormuz isn't opened in 48 hoursEnglish12·17 days agoAre you suggesting that the Working Families candidate running for council of my small city is a Russian asset?
Are you suggesting that instead I must vote for the Democrat mayor who got busted for not actually living in the city when she admitted it when her ex-husband was busted for selling drugs out of the house that she claimed to live in (and where her children did live), and then got busted for campaign finance violations but was still allowed to run again?
Or the Democrat state senator who repeatedly defended sex offenders in the Senate?
Or the Democrat governor who gave a billion dollars of taxpayer money to out-of-state billionaires to build a new head-injury stadium (that the state would not own). And who tried to kill congestion pricing in NYC?
You and the vote-blue-no-matter-who people can fuck all the way off if you refuse to put good candidates.
eksb@programming.devto World News@lemmy.world•Trump threatens to 'obliterate' Iran's power plants if Strait of Hormuz isn't opened in 48 hoursEnglish22·18 days agoDid you miss the part where my districts are so lopsided that it does not hurt the lesser of two evils if I vote for good?
eksb@programming.devto World News@lemmy.world•Trump threatens to 'obliterate' Iran's power plants if Strait of Hormuz isn't opened in 48 hoursEnglish25·18 days agoThere are other 3rd parties.
eksb@programming.devto World News@lemmy.world•Trump threatens to 'obliterate' Iran's power plants if Strait of Hormuz isn't opened in 48 hoursEnglish53·18 days agoDepends where he lives. I always vote third party, but every district I am in is gerrymandered, and my state is not within 10 points of competitive for president, so my votes do not matter other than getting third parties on the ballot.
eksb@programming.devto Climate@slrpnk.net•Hochul proposes weakening New York State's climate law | The governor wants to delay regulatory deadlines and implement accounting changes that will make emissions reduction targets easier to meet.English5·20 days agoThe same Hochul who gave a billion dollars of taxpayer dollars to billionaires to build a head injury stadium in the suburbs, and who delayed congestion pricing.
eksb@programming.devto Selfhosted@lemmy.world• Local AI Companion for Radarr: Uses Ollama to Understand Your Taste (Vibe, Atmosphere, Mood), Auto-Complete Sagas, Explore Filmographies, and Add Movies SeamlesslyEnglish1022·20 days agoNo LLM use is benign. The effects on the environment, the internet, and society are real, and that cannot be ignored.
You can make the argument that in some cases it is justified, e.g.: for scientific research.
eksb@programming.devto Firefox@lemmy.ml•How to have firefox's cache be saved on custom directory ?English3·22 days agoLinux-specific: as of version 147, Firefox respects the XDG base dir specifications, so you should be able to set
$XDG_CACHE_HOME.
eksb@programming.devto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Is it possible to have a usable domain without a VPS or a static IP address?English4·22 days agoIf your home IP does not change often, you can use a dynamic DNS service. But your services will be unavailable from the time that your IP changes and the time the DNS record is updated and the cached responses expire.
eksb@programming.devto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is everyone in America just constantly crashing out right now, or acting normal by their standards?English411·29 days agoI do not think the leaders believe that AI is going to replace most jobs. They definitely believe that they can use the threat of AI taking most jobs to further exploit the working class.
eksb@programming.devto Formula 1@lemmy.world•[OT] Come check out !indycar@lemmy.world !English3·29 days agoIs there any way to watch replays of recent races in which the commentators are not Americans? American-style live sports commentary makes everything unwatchable to me.
Reminds me of how we were dressed up as Pilgrims and Native Americans and taught that god blessed the pilgrims with this new land and they were welcomed with open arms and gifts of corn and turkeys.
