This is actual RAM used by the desktop environments that is not available for cache. That is the number he gets from top, it doesn't include the disk cache. The DE won't use less RAM even when Firefox needs it, because it is not cache, it cannot be dropped if needed, you just have less RAM available for you applications (or for the actual cache, for that matter).
Another downside of flatpak is that I don't trust upstream devs to have my best interests at heart, but I trust Debian developers far more. I've seen upstream do some annoying or stupid shit and the Debian maintainers not budging.
I think it was poppler or evince that decided they were going to enforce the no-copy-and-paste bit you can set on pdfs. Debian patched it out. I've seen Mozilla decide they were going to enforce their trademarks. They carved out special exceptions for various distros but that still would have meant you would have to rename Firefox if you were to fork Debian. Debian had none of it. There were many dodgy copyright and licensing problems upstream devs gave no shit about. Debian not including these often eventually put pressure on them to fix this shit or for some replacement to get developed.
I fail to see how anyone could interpret what can only refer to holding the line as not a heroic act and a military metaphor. And that's how it's used, and that's what it means, and that's where it comes from.
And Ts'o clearly knows this as well, since it he appropriately uses it as a metaphor for keeping chaos at bay and out of the kernel.
You don't need this to count unique users. You could just assign a random number on install or whatever. Or even more simply, just run the thing once per month, should be accurate enough. Do they expect the software to just randomly spam duplicate reports? Don't write it that way.
Best case they don't care about collecting minimal data and don't understand that hashed MACs are easily reversible. So incompetent fools with no sensitivity to privacy.
Maybe this should be Manjaro's tagline: Not purposely malicious, just grossly negligent and ignorant.
That's not anonymous, that's pseudonymous.
What is the point of this? The machine-id already looks to be some unique random number, so you're calculating another unique random-looking number from that, might as well use the original number.
You can't glean any useful information from a unique random-looking number that would help with developing Manjaro. You can't calculate any statistics from that. The only use is tracking.
Edit: And as mentioned in my other comment, reversing the MAC SHA by brute force is trivial, so that one at least (and possibly the other hardware serial numbers they collect) shouldn't even be considered pseudonymous.
A measuring jug (from oxo) that allows you to see the marks when looking at it from above.
Also I have two timers, and I need and use both.
This is an Israeli surveillance drone looking at an attack. I've been looking at Ukraine war footage, and that's the viewing angle of most videos out of that conflict. They have eyes on the target and then call in a strike, and observe the strike so they know what the result is. Only sometimes do you see things from the POV of the attack drone, and even then that's usually just a second angle.
And it's not a mine. You can see some projectile coming in in 1 or 2 frames before the explosions.
But there has been no progress during my lifetime (well not here and not in the US, there might have been some progress in other parts of the world). In fact, whenever we had "left"-liberals in power here in Germany, the march towards the right only accelerated, as they adopted right-wing neoliberal policies and took at least part their base with them over to the right, and the rest gets marginalized. We've had some fatal damage done to the welfare state, worker's rights and the anti-war movement, all by the social democrats and greens.
Your affirmation that there is "slow progress" is clearly not true. There was some progress before I was born, but as far as I can tell, that had nothing at all to do with voting for the lesser evil.
Is he? I keep hearing he'd lose the election if he held one.
Klitschko, the mayor of Kyiv, is saying this in an interview with German mainstream outlet Der Spiegel, and this is here reported by Ukrainian newspaper Kyiv Independent. Your assessment: Russian propaganda.
Some of the far-right like Israel for stupid reasons:
- It's an example of the sort of ethno-nationalist supremacy they want to implement at home.
- Some in the far-right have embraced this idea that various ethnic groups should not mix, but they can have their own countries/regions ("ethnopluralism").
- They want to get rid of Jews from their home countries, so they like the idea of them leaving and going to Israel.
- They hate Muslims even more than Jews.

On Linux/Unix (not sure about other platforms), you can configure a "Compose key" (people usually use something like the Menu key, or the right Alt key).
You can then hit that Compose key, followed by multiple other keys and they will be combined into a character, usually roughly relating to the shapes.
etc. There's a big table somewhere where all these are defined.
On android keyboards you can hold down the letter and get a list of "alternative" letters (seems to depend on the keyboard and keyboard layout configured what you get), you can also configure multiple languages/keyboards and then switch between them, by holding the spacebar.
