I love my netbook, but it's small (that's why I bought it!) and all the keys on the keyboard are close to each other, so sometimes I press the power button instead of the backspace and turn the device off. It's annoying...

To disable this key on systemd systems just edit the /etc/systemd/logind.conf file, uncomment the HandlePowerKey line and change the command to ignore the key, so:

HandlePowerKey=ignore

@guenther @purism @kyle I'm anti-racism but I can see the perspective where one simply shows accurate search results according to what you searched. Idk though...

Also if you get those results while searching # kikes ... Don't search # kikes. My issue is when you get junky results searching something okay.

@guenther @purism @kyle Isn't that just a federated hashtag search? It turns up results from sites that aren't social.librem.one.

@oss It's kinda like an Amazon Echo, but made with mostly publicly available parts with the exception of a custom board and a fully open source software stack. You can literally run the whole thing offline if you want, or use their cloud based backend. The software is written in Python and can be easily added to with Skills to perform whatever task you want.

@itzpaquet @adou@toot.aquilenet.fr Gay people are allowed to love eachother; Biblically there cannot be sexual actions there though.

This passage regards homosexuality as bad. Thus you must reject Paul if you accept homosexuality, even if homosexuality was usually at that time and place “an old man raping younger and poorer boys” (which this passage doesn't seem to be talking about).

See 1 Corinthians 6:9, 1 Timothy 1:10, and, if you will, Leviticus 18:22 & 20:13 for some relevant passages. [3/3]

“For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.” (ESV)

@adou@toot.aquilenet.fr @itzpaquet Thanks for the reply, imagine if this discussion was happening on Twitter, lol 🤬🚨

Paul's statements about homosexuality weren't e.g. ‘do not do homosexuality the way the Greeks do’ but more like an unequivocal, non-culture-relative ‘do not do homosexuality, it is bad’.
See Romans 1:26–27: [1/3]

@RL_Dane @Gargron The official Mastodon Android app does when you tap it.

@golemwire

I agree, except that anyone should be able to flip a hidden switch on hardware they own that:

1) Formats the disk (overwrites first MB or so of encrypted volume)
2) Marks a CPU fuse/flag saying that this device no longer plays DRM games or runs the console OS
3) Unlocks the bootloader
4) Exposes full hardware access to any OS or software you choose to install

This should be standard on ALL hardware sold, of ANY kind, and enforced by law.

Hello @adou@toot.aquilenet.fr. How much of the Bible have you read so far? Do you believe it? If you are going to claim you are pro-LGBT, pro-choice etc. *and* a Christian can you explain why; they are widely considered in opposition.

@RL_Dane From my observation, small-businesses, perhaps coffee shops in particular, often feel more warmly human than most companies ever do. It brings me some happiness.

Here's the next short early for those who clicked on this. ;)

@epsi It's fine to want either of these options. It depends on the person and situation I think.

You know, I am strongly against PC's being locked down against user freedom, but I'm mostly fine with on consoles. It is fairer to the game developers, as it makes it more difficult to pirate games and run pirated copies.
In my opinion, your PC being free of DRM and lockdowns should be a right at this point, but why would we need that right on a computer solely for recreational purposes, to the detriment of its content creators?

@cyberghost@fosstodon.org Interesting, so it isn't e.g. from a videogame or something... it is just art free for personal use. Cool.
