1st-century BCE Syrian-Latin writer Publilius Syrus reads:

In nil sapiendo vita iucundissima est
(“Life is most delightful when one knows nothing.”)

Those rules were implemented in the crashes before 2008. The banks have the resources to get around them; they actually advise the government how to get their debt off-BS. You realise that's a conflict of interest, right?

The whole idea behind the PFI is that the debt is not on the government BS.

2008 banking crisis showed that they're all banking stooges. Banks go bust for their poor management. Public bales them out. Traders get enormous bonuses, although not on the level they screwed up. Some twenty years later, the last shares were sold to the market by the government on 30 May 2025.

Actually you could argue the 1991 ERM fiasco showed that they're all banking Stooges.

(To no-one in particular, not OP either.)

Politician taking kickbacks or handouts or freebies, can't happen, won't happen. What the fuck did you think this is? The 2020s?!

You're insane.

Now you have the reliability of fifty-three messages all saying "ring me back".

Give me visual voicemail. You put the switch on my Android. Just do it!

Maybe it isn't fashionable there yet.

I think that the Post Office fiasco shows us all that no-one is ever responsible, privatised or not.

Oh. Thank-you. I'll read through.

Thank-you. Recently rebuilt my Arch Rescue build and saw that section in doing the UKI dance.

I don't mind the Microsoft keys being there at all. I just don't think tying myself to them is particularly clever.

From your final part. I think I need to go back and reread it. Thank-you again.

I thought it was a Microsoft centric thing in that the certificate authority was either Microsoft or signed by Microsoft?

Maybe I need to read about it more? Can you direct me to the general area?

[-] deadcatbounce@reddthat.com 25 points 5 days ago

Being beholden to Microsoft doesn't sound like something anyone needs.

Until that ends I'm doing best to avoid secure boot. I don't want to.

Picking a random post from the list of posts in Voyager and then using the share facility to share it to Firefox makes Voyager look like Firefox with the address bar and so on.

However, when I want to go back to using Voyager flicking back - partial right swipe on my Pixel 7 Pro w/Niagara launcher - doesn't do anything useful and I'm still in a version/instance of Firefox with the Voyager icon.

Can someone double check that this does/not happen to them to an up-to-date Android phone before I report it, please?

Thank-you in advance

UPDATE: looks like it is my end from your comments, thank-you people. I'm going back from whence I came, shame faced. 😳

I'm glad. Voyager is my Lemmy of choice!

Maybe it's Niagara. There's a couple of stability fixes coming through. So here's hoping! Meanwhile I have a reeducation class to attend! 🤣

Hello all,

What do I actually do when I finally have a running instance (of containerised HA on a Raspberry Pi)? Delete all the toys from Alexa and Smart Life and start again in Home Assistant?

Is deleting everything the intelligent way to go rather than trying to transition?

My Google-foo is failing I did try to find an answer in Lemmy/Reddit/HA. Apologies if I miss an obvious place.

Thank-you in advance.

My early teen cousin is learning to play keyboard/piano. She likes to compose her own songs, and she's good at that, but perhaps could use some help with the basis rhythm.

I thought that a book of rhythms might help. Something like this, but it's going to be the wrong era for her on the surface, although the rhythms repeat through the ages. Encyclopedia of Piano Rhythm Patterns: Popular Piano Rhythms and How to Play Them https://amzn.eu/d/2JdTsST

Please point me in the right direction. Thank-you in advance

Hi all

Is there an Android client that allows me to avoid Reddit posts which are currently crossposted and overwhelming my Lemmy timeline?

Something like Domain exclude as on the Relay for Reddit client.

Thank-you in advance
