Not really, BLM was started to highlight issues of racism, discrimination, inequality etc. faced by black people.

I would not have had an issue if the mod had said equal rights for all people, including Jewish people. It's the fact that they say equal rights for all, but "in particular" one specific group that I take issue with, doesn't matter if that group is Jews, Christians, white people, black people, etc.

What I said here: https://feddit.uk/post/29329161/17366266

If we want equal rights for all (as we should) then that includes Jewish people, we don't then specify that one group "in particular" gets equal rights. I wouldn't have taken issue with the sentence if it simply said Jewish people included, because "all people" does indeed include Jewish people, but "in particular" is picking them out as special.

Why do they need to be specified? If it's equal rights for all people, then that includes Jews. There is no need to specify if you are promoting equality for all.

  • Calling for the dissolution of Israel, or calling for a one-state solution without specifying equal rights for all people; Jewish in particular.

All people are equal, but some are more equal than others

If you're referring to the title, the community rule is that all posts need to be titled "PIC"

A VM would be a good way to try out different distros & desktop environments, and to get some familiarity with Linux. For actually gaming I would install the OS on bare metal (you could dual boot if you wanted to keep windows installed as a backup).

I'll make sure to post wonkier pictures in the future 😉

Having seen a different video about Limited Run Games, the recycled chips news doesn't surprise me

I mean the original anti-piracy ad said you wouldn't steal a car, because they were trying to equate digital piracy with physical theft, it's the meme edits that say you wouldn't download a car

The worst thing about Gemini is that you can't just use it like Google assistant without enabling the "Gemini apps activity", or whatever it's called, data collection

You used to be able to ask it to set a timer just like assistant and it would work fine, now they require you to enable Gemini apps activity to ask it to set a simple timer. The solution of course is not to use Gemini.

Something like almost half of generic medications are made in India.

Is this for cancer drugs or generics in general? Only asking because most of the generics I see in the UK are made here, but that might be because I've only seen the more common medications and not stuff like cancer drugs.

Hope you manage to beat the cancer!

For security disable password authentication - use public key instead, disable root login via ssh - use sudo or su from another user.

To reduce the number of attempts of others trying to get in change the ssh port and/or set-up fail2ban.

You could also set a firewall rule to only allow ssh from your IP address, if you have a static address at home and only need access from there, or have a way to VPN into your home network. Make sure you have a static address if you do this though, you don't want your IP to change and be left locked out of your server.
