Okay. So I did a little research since I was truly curious.

https://www.animals24-7.org/2019/10/14/pit-bulls-new-gene-study-shows-it-is-not-all-in-how-you-raise-them/*

Boom. A genetic link between aggression and certain violent behaviors and pitbulls. 15% of their personality. Caused by an aggressive period of selectively breeding them for dogfights.

And now I think we should breed pitbulls out of existence.

@[email protected] (is this how you @ a user?).

1 source. That's all it fucking takes. I don't understand why people who spend so much time on the internet are so mid at arguing. 4 articles of AI slop aren't going to convince anyone of shit. 2-3 other articles that don't actually back up your point have the same issue. But you're prancing all over this thread like you're hot shit. The issues I mentioned in my previous comment still apply, but here's a new source for you to use I guess, you're welcome.

And of course, I have to obligatorily state that no parallels to human behavior can be drawn from this. No, black people were not "bred for strength". No, they are not inherently more aggressive. No, we should not just use eugenics to eliminate certain "races" because human races are a social construct (see above diagram). However, dogs work differently, it seems.

*Edit: actually this source seems to be somewhat problematic since it seems to cover a dispraportionate amount of news related to pitbulls but that doesn't make the study immediately wrong.

Okay researching further I found another scientific article going in the opposite direction.

However, our community sample of Pit Bull-type dogs showed they are not more aggressive or more likely to have a behavioral diagnosis than other dogs. This does not support reliance on breed-specific legislation to reduce dog bites to humans [23

(Damn, I said I wouldn't argue but now I seem to be arguing with myself. Don't worry chat. Imma win.)

Opens google scholar

Oh shit. It doesn't even mention the word pitbull. Investigating further, many of the claims that article makes, like the ones about certain dog breeds needing no/less training to do certain things, are just straight up unsourced and not mentioned in the study. wtf?!

I am enraged that the article just straight up fucking lied to me and I fell for it. This is why I use google scholar and vet the studies myself, rather than using a search engine normally.

But it seems like we are back to "pitbulls are products of their environments" again.

On a miscellaneous note, google scholar seems to have really enshittified. It's now attempting to show me normal news articles and blog posts, rather than exclusively scientific journals. Eugh.

…and see what, exactly? That culture doesn’t exist?

Yes lol.

Why…should I care if you’re black?

Because I am a living counterexample to the idea that black people need to speak a certain way.

What shit? You mean Black Entertainment Television? TV for black people? Black culture?

And Google's "privacy sandbox" is so private. C'mon lol. You gotta be either stupid or trolling.

Do you even know what you’re trying to argue?

Yes.

I used to play minecraft and geometry dash via the amazon appstore, the apps come with drm.

Abuse and mistreatment can play a large role in a dog’s aggression, and pit bulls are often subjected to such conditions. In situations like this, dogs learn to be aggressive and will bite humans as a result. However, studies have shown that pit bulls’ aggression is largely due to their living conditions, and they aren’t necessarily naturally dangerous dogs

While many pit bulls can be held responsible for dog bites, it’s also worth noting that their reputation makes people quick to blame the breed. Other dog breeds have similar physical features as pit bulls, so people assume that’s what they are.

From the very article you linked in the other comment.

Don't talk facts when your source refutes your claim.

Never heard a black person speak

Holy fuck, please go outside. As a certified real black person I think you need to actually fucking touch some grass and meet some real black people.

Here's a video of me speaking just so you shut up.

Never seen BET?

If you learn about the world through shit like this it'd certainly explain the racism.

The Onion made a joke about this actually, Sale Of BET To White Supremacist Group Results In No Changes To Programming.

Firstly, you are probably going to need a pdf version of your resume. I've tried to get people to accept a website resume but they refuse, and explicitly want pdf. I link to a pdf on my website because of this. Do something similar.

Your notes are very in depth, and organized.

However, I agree with the other commenters about the overall site design and (over)use of JS. The cropping and spacing is overall poor, which only harms the site design further, given the already bad overall organization.

Another thing is icons. These are big and unevenly spaced. Use something like fontawesome (probably not this since it doesn't have everything, you may end up having to find svg logo's of the various things yourself) instead. If you are trying to do web development, your portfolio must look cleaner. Like in bootstrap, the place where the icon is, has sharp corners, which extend outward from bootstraps rounded corners.

I do disagree with one of the other commenters on the use of the term "language". I like it. Especially for a resume, brevity is better. I think overall, you should compress your site down, rather than having so much wasted space.

You can push it even futher with wikiman, an offline interface to search and view manpages and the Arch wiki.

If you have an older nvidia gpu, you can use vgpu unlock to unlock these features on that.

No. Netplan uses it's own yaml format, which people would have to learn and use. I don't want to do that, I would rather just configure my existing networkmanager setup, rather than learning another abstraction layer over what is already an abstraction layer.

I understand that cockpit (and similar type tools) are "the whole kitchen sink" of utilities, and it may seem like they come with more than you may need. But that doesn't change the fact that they get the job done, and in some usecases, are better than dedicated tools.

You don't need to install cockpit on the server being configured, you can use it as a gui to connect from other machines via the flatpak, over ssh.

I find this hilarious. Is this an easter egg? When shaking my mouse cursor, I can get it to take up the whole screens height.

This is KDE Plasma 6.

Introducing Incus 6.7 (www.youtube.com)
submitted 3 months ago by moonpiedumplings to c/linux
 

Incus is a virtual machine platform, similar to Proxmox, but with some big upsides, like being packaged on Debian and Ubuntu as well, and more features.

https://github.com/lxc/incus

Incus was forked from LXD after Canonical implemented a Contributor License Agreement, allowing them to distribute LXD as proprietary software.

This youtuber, Zabbly, is the primary developer of Incus, and they livestream lots of their work on youtube.

This card game looks really good. There also seems to be a big, open source server: https://github.com/cuttle-cards/cuttle

Alt Text: (For searchability): 3 part comic, drawn in a simple style. The first, leftmost panel has one character yelling at another: "@+_$^P&%!. The second comic has them continue yelling, with their hands in an exasperated position: "$#*@F% $$#!". In the third comic, the character who was previously yelling has their hands on their head in frustration, to which the previously silent character responds: "Sorry, I don't speak Perl".

As of 10/1/24 3:52 UTC time, Trixie/Debian testing does not have a fix for the severe cupsd security vulnerability that was recently announced, despite Debian Stable and Unstable having a fix.

Debian Testing is intended for testing, and not really for production usage.

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/cups-filters, archive

So the way Debian Unstable/Testing works is that packages go into unstable/ for a bit, and then are migrated into testing/trixie.

Issues preventing migration: ∙ ∙ Too young, only 3 of 5 days old

Basically, security vulnerabilities are not really a priority in testing, and everything waits for a bit before it updates.

I recently saw some people recommending Trixie for a "debian but not as unstable as sid and newer packages than stable", which is a pretty bad idea. Trixie/testing is not really intended for production use.

If you want newer, but still stable packages from the same repositories, then I recommend (not an exhaustive list, of course).:

  • Opensuse Leap (Tumbleweed works too but secure boot was borked when I used it)
  • Fedora

If you are willing to mix and match sources for packages:

  • Flatpaks
  • distrobox — run other distros in docker/podman containers and use apps through those
  • Nix

Can get you newer packages on a more stable distros safely.
