@SheDrivesMobility und Politiker wie Merz reagieren wie folgt auf den Hinweis, dass die Niedriglöhne und Bürgergeld zu niedrig sind, um sich gesund zu ernähren: Dafür gibt's doch die Tafel. Mit andren Worten: Die Politik tut so, als wäre der private Hilfsverein namens Tafel Teil der staatlichen Fürsorge, wodurch entsprechend weniger Geld gezahlt werden muss. DAS ist nicht nur dreist, das ist eine Pervertierung in Ansichten und Argumentation.

@lynnesbian I'm wondering if Gtk and Adwaita could static_assert these things. Then you wouldn't even need to search for the documentation.

Oh look, Starlink is continuing to screw up the sky in every way possible.

"Second-Generation Starlink Satellites Leak 30 Times More Radio Interference, Threatening Astronomical Observations"

https://www.astron.nl/starlink-satellites/

It's going to be "hilarious" when Starlink messes up the radio sky so badly that radio astronomers can't even use quasars to calibrate GPS anymore. There are so many consequences from all these stupid, cheaply built, disposable satellites. https://www.universetoday.com/105160/navigating-the-cosmos-by-quasar/

Second-Generation Starlink Satellites Leak 30 Times More Radio Interference, Threatening Astronomical Observations | ASTRON

Observations with the LOFAR (Low Frequency Array) radio telescope last year showed that first generation Starlink satellites emit unintended radio waves that can hinder astronomical observations.

@Natanox It's still grub on Fedora. There's the GRUB_ENABLE_BLSCFG option in /etc/default/grub, but also a command `grub2-switch-to-blscfg` to switch to it. Probably the kernel packages install the entry files.

ntonnaett Jun 10, 2024

@Natanox At least on Fedora you have files for every entry in /boot/loader/entries following the Boot Loader Spec. I really appreciated when they switched to this. It's much nicer to work with. https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/BootLoaderSpec/

@tagesschau Müsste es nicht "Zuvor hätten palästinensische Extremisten eine Baustelle für ein humanitäres Projekt beschossen." heißen? Oder habt ihr die Angaben der israelischen Regierung anderweitig überprüfen können?
