You reminded me that one time we almost got killer/severely injured in a protest by a stun grenade.

This happened almost same time I saw some news of Israel killing protestors with tear gas grenades, as it fell into their head and skull, inducing lethal damage.

Anyway, I was with a friend and a bunch of people. Everything was peaceful and then, bam, out of nowhere it went to shit. We were used to it, but that time the tear gas was so bad that the neutralizer we brought was doing nothing. We were covered with a wall (bad idea, but we were panicking badly), and I wasn't able to breath, so I wanted us to run away from there. I told him to let's just run certain way, and I was so full of adrenaline and ready to run, but he stopped me. 1 second later, a stun grenade fell from the sky just 1 m away of us, in the direction I wanted us to run; no doubt it would have hit me in the head.

After that I just took his hand and we ran away, not able to see nor breath. Me holding his hand was a huge saver for both of us, as we could, more or less, guide each other. We ran some 20-30 m and just fell to the ground, but in a somewhat safe place. We crawled some 10 m more and just rest there. It took us some solid 15 minutes to catch our breath. Never said a word to my family.

Fun times.

Rozo, if you ever read this: queso.

Thanks for telling me lol. I remember sharing your enthusiasm when I started.

If you don't mind me sharing, here are some tools I use the most in the console:

  • htop: resource monitoring and process killing. Mint has a GUI alternative
  • btop: better resource monitoring, but worse process killing than htop.
  • lazygit: amazing interface for git. Seems hard to get started, but IMO, not at all. There are GUI alternatived.
  • tmux: multiple consoles and console manager. A bit hard to get started.
  • nano: text editor. Reeaaaallly simple to use, prefer it over emacs and vi/vim.
  • grep: you already know this one.
  • cronjobs/crontab: allows you to run periodical commands. Say, a cleanup script all days at 7:08 AM.

Also, some GUI programs I love:

  • KDE Connect: device pairing with your cellphone and PC. Includes remote mouse input, multimedia control and file sharing.
  • Steam: Almost all the games I play on Steam run flawlessly on Linux.
  • Stellarium: astronomy/planetary app.

Pick your poison lol. If you don't mind, we can start talking via ptivate message.

Hey OP, how did the installation went?

But there are places for the discussion to be made. Lemmy as a whole did not ban the elections discussion, just this one specific sub. In fact, you'll see basically every single sub of Lemmy discussing it.

This is a temporary rule for 1 single community.

Not every sub has to revolve around US elections all day/weeks/months long. That has nothing to do with corporate media.

Neat post, OP! I think I missed how is Shanon entropy relevant to the calculation. Is it relevant, or was it just a neat extra to add?

Tangential note: NIST has collaborated with the NSA, while denying said collaboration. Even currently, there's suspicions about them collaborating with NSA to chose a non-safe post-quantum E2EE algorithm.

That's the technical explanation for the changes, no an explanation for closing the discussion all together.

@bitwarden bitwarden locked and limited conversation to collaborators

They also locked the thread 16 hours ago (as of writing this comment), with no explanation.

Fran Bow . It's a psychological terror click adventure, available on both Mobile and PC. On mobile I think it has 5 different chapters, and 0 transactions other than the buying price. Really recommend it!

Yes, but both Intel and AMD offer an equivalent (not as mature, though). AMD is FSR and Intel is XeSS
