@vintprox @itsfoss That child window behavior in Gnome is annoying, but can be changed using Gnome Tweak app.

@michal @itsfoss I think I dealt with it by setting hardware clock to UTC and changing some setting in Windows to reflect that. I suspect that doing the opposite is also viable.

@itsfoss I want to finally see accurate, multi-language voice typing that has zero setup other than installing a single package (or preferably, out of the box).

And I want to see an assistant like Siri/Alexa/Cortana that works locally on-device.

@noelreports It's stated at 16:45. From what I understand, Poland did not change its mind. It simply never had any restrictions on use of Polish weapons.

@CyberpunkLibrarian Were they really hackers? Did they specifically target the library?

I would suspect the culprits are criminals who didn't create the ransomware tool, but merely bought it and they are using it indiscriminately. The library simply happened to get infected. Maybe someone opened an attachment from a phishing email or visited an infected website using a vulnerable web browser?

@johas @fsfe What even is "openwashing"? When an open source product has a closed source sibling like Chromium and Chrome? Or when a product is source-available like Unreal Engine?

@Greengordon @noelreports My guess is that they will be handed over to Ukraine after war ends.

@noelreports From what I understand, on paper S-400 should be able to shoot down short and medium range ballistic missiles.

I bet Turkey is reconsidering its choices right now.

@Walter8100000 @noelreports That is one of the main concerns. Recently, Ukraine said that they can sign an agreement absolving Poland of all responsibility, but there's still moral responsibility, internal Polish legal responsibility and the potential for creating outrage that could be exploited by Russia.

@avlcharlie @itsfoss No, it's not. It's still another annoying and not very useful thing to turn off though. I wonder if it will be one of those Windows things that magically re-enable themselves from time to time? Yet another reminder why software freedom is important.

@swigert @noelreports They might be able to sometimes shoot them down, but as this ship's sinking shows, not reliably enough.

@ike @itsfoss It doesn't work, as @remindme only supports relative time like "4 months". You can file an issue asking for absolute time support: github.com/atasfun/remindme

@AfroScribble It's not about this guy at all. It's about precedent. Should Tor developers be liable for drug sellers hiding themselves using Tor? Should GIMP developers be liable for someone editing CSAM using GIMP? It should be obvious that the answer is no, but apparently it isn't obvious. Some people can argue that Tor shouldn't exist and GIMP should upload edited images to a server that will check them.

@auschwitzmuseum Thank you. I saw one of your previous posts mention that someone was released and was wondering how it worked.

@adambyte @eff @pluralistic @IGN TBH proprietary games usually use a ton of proprietary middleware that belongs to someone else and thus can't be open sourced by the game company.

@ikanreed @noelreports Off-the-shelf weapons with comparable range would be even more expensive. Though they would be also more resistant to electronic warfare and air defence.

@WashingtonIrving @noelreports Lack of ammo and materiel is not the only problem Ukraine is facing, so these deliveries won't magically turn the tide. They will be a big help, but more is needed. Air defence is fortunately being worked on. There's also the question of training. Ukraine lacks trained manpower, especially commanders and specialists. NATO is helping, but not enough and training done in some countries was reportedly inadequate.

@Greengordon @noelreports Looks like it was empty and they didn't close the hatches before running away.
