@Whiskers79735 @K_Niemietz The idea is you paid in for 35 years or so, now the government gives back

@K_Niemietz Is someone going to tell them that their pension relies on younger people working and paying taxes?

There is no "pot". That's the whole problem.

@CompassDrifter @gcanderson57 @mercoglianos @USNavy It missed its own watermark, concerning

@gcanderson57 @mercoglianos @USNavy Funny community note claiming it's AI generated. When I ran the pic thru Gemini asking if it was AI, it verified it was authentic.

🚨NAVY LOGISTICS 🚨 Everyone seems concerned that the @usnavy ships in the Arabian Sea - carrier Abraham Lincoln stike group, 3-ship amphibious group based on Tripoli, and a surface action group centered on approximately 8 destroyers - are running low on food, with some pictures showing the supposed meals on board. To understand how the Navy supplies ships you have to understand how @MSCSealift, the fleet of civilian merchant mariner crewed ships work. There are three main considerations - fuel, food, and ammo. 1️⃣Fuel: There are two MSC oilers in the Indian Ocean. They provide alongside Underway Replenishment (UNREP) for diesel fuel for ship population and JP5 for aviation. The oilers can carry between 180 to 150k barrels of fuel. A Burke can carry about 12k bbls of fuel. When the oilers run low on fuel, they will either return to a forward base or meet up with commercial tankers from the US merchant marine, some in the Tanker Security Program. These tankers are equipped to receive rigs from the MSC oilers so that they can transfer fuel to the oilers. The oilers can maintain their forward presence as station oilers while the commercial tankers shuttle fuel. 2️⃣Food & Ammo: There are three MSC dry cargo/ammo ships in the region. To keep the ships supplied one of the T-AKEs will rotate through the ships providing either replenishment at sea or vertical replenishment via civilian embarked AS-332 helos. Another ship would be rotating out a forward base to reload and tag team with the station AKE. The third AKE, along with civilian commercial ships, many of the Maritime Security Program, would shuttle forward supplies from commercial ports or Defense Logisitics Agency depots. 3️⃣ The addition of the Bush Carrier Strike Group will allow the Lincoln to pull back for down time and resupply at a base. Bush has a fast combat support ship (T-AOE) that can carry a mix of food, fuel and ammo on a ship capable of 26 knots. This ship is a one-stop shop for a carrier strike group. The arrival of the Boxer amphibious group will also provide a relief for Tripoli or operate in SE Asia to intercept, divert or board Iranian ships. Now, does this mean every ship on the blockade is supplied to full capacity...probably not. But before everyone leaps to conclusions that sailors are not being provisioned, understand that the US Navy and @CENTCOM has done this for a long time. At the same time, this logistic system can be more robust and represents a point of vulnerability for operations. MSC has experienced issues with crewing and availability of vessels.

@vibeonX69 Been using btrfs since migrating from ext4 and have had no issues

Which Linux filesystem do you prefer??? -btrfs -ext4 -zfs -xfs

@nyclatinpapi @markus_ @charcoded @NYCMayor BUT YOU CAN USE THE TRAIN INSTEAD! Is there a bus service maybe? Its been a long ass time since I was in NYC. Its called customer choice.

@Mechanic76Jack @markus_ @charcoded @NYCMayor Are you not getting it? Anyone from NYC would know that’s called price gauging, just because we have it doesn’t mean we’re slow enough to pay for scamming. I’ll be charged $60 within 1 mile headed to JFK simply because price gauging. Think…

hey @NYCMayor fix this please

@nyclatinpapi @markus_ @charcoded @NYCMayor Well he is complaining about the price.....

@markus_ @charcoded @NYCMayor Not everyone is broke and value their space.

@daveplaysgames6 @haro7z Nonsense

@haro7z As far as I know most Linux distributions do not respond to the Super key therefore it's useless

What?

@MarchelSeth @TBrit90 @NavyLookout They are buddy, always have been.

@Mechanic76Jack @TBrit90 @NavyLookout you miss the point: the uk is not competent anymore

The Vanguard submarine on patrol today beats the world record of 204 days (6.7 months). @NavyLookout Likely returns very soon, but another milestone reached in the increasingly high trend.

@AngusAllan66 @NavyLookout @RollsRoyceUK Actually they are building new ones, the Dreadnought class.

@NavyLookout @RollsRoyceUK How is the UK’s nuclear submarine dismantling project progressing?

The evolution of UK nuclear submarine reactors and @RollsRoyceUK central role navylookout.com/the-evolution-…

@MarchelSeth @TBrit90 @NavyLookout Same reason we have ours out, ballistic missile submarines are always ready for the call no one wants.

@TBrit90 @NavyLookout honestly whats even the point? just have them return home. its not like the british do anything useful militarily..

@_____Peter_ @orbital_haze It does, on Fedora with the RPM Fusion drivers

@orbital_haze wayland doesn't works on gtx 1080 because it's homosexual

@frokfrdk I swear these posts are by people under 30 who have yet to acquire a "cable ball". Now when I get new device the USB cable can use go in the spares pile.

@foilmanhacks You CAN, but it does not mean you should.

Someone didn't read the documentation. You don't baremetal Kali.

@Rich_Sparkles71 @tolad_ The issue is when you run out of things to cut down on. Then you are just seeing what you cannot change constantly. I am old now, and I did the forbiddin thing when times were tough....I moved. Still get shit for it, but it was the right choice.

@tolad_ I don’t think this should be a “UK resident” thing. I believe in tracking everything. That’s the only way you can understand and plan. So, no matter where you reside, as an adult, you should always track your finances, amongst other things. Whatever gets measured can be improved.

Every UK residents understands what’s going on here.

@lfg_uk NIMBYS will come out in full force again to try and destroy it just as they did before. In fact, its all forms of power, industry and argiculture in the western world now. All to appease the almighty house price.

@vaxryy Who runs Hyprland now tho. It feels abandoned.

we live in a world where debian stable is more up to date than fedora

@Pirat_Nation So people are responsible for the mistakes of AI? Thats a hell of a statement the way the world is right now. But I approve.

Linux sets rules for AI-generated code After months of debate, the Linux community has agreed on clear rules for using AI-generated code. Tools like GitHub Copilot are allowed, but maintainers have made it clear that low-quality “AI slop” will not be accepted. > “Humans take the fall for mistakes.” This means developers can use AI to help write code, but they are fully responsible for checking it, fixing errors, and making sure it meets Linux’s standards. The decision is backed by Linus Torvalds and kernel maintainers

@GiorgosBeige @scottew Not really, there is a whole ecosystem of industrial and commercial products that have no use for USB-C. It's the 30 year old Industry standard for a reason. The keyboard, mouse and various other odds and ends I brought recently were all USB-A.

@scottew USB A connectors should be banned everywhere by law. It’s getting really frustrated - it’s like they’re trolling us now that almost everything’s updated to USB C.

feels like the world collectively overinvested in USB-A infrastructure

@levidehaan @xdadevelopers I cannot use Arch based distros beacuse I demand stabilty and AUR does not have enough oversight.

@xdadevelopers Ewww fedora?? Manjaro if you need a gui. Get kde it's familiar to windows users.

Fedora 44 will automatically make your Windows games run faster, no tweaks required bit.ly/4uWF3Zt

@joefantabulous @justbyte_ You WANT the best build quality, so it's either buy a Mac or get a business grade laptop for Linux. Consumer laptop quality, even on top end models is shocking. "Yeah hinges tend to fail after about 8 months" Motherfucker I spend $2500 on this!

@justbyte_ Nope. I don't care about any specific brand beyond that it has to run Linux.

Do you all agree with this?

@regressia_dev @justbyte_ Problem is, laptop manufacturers not longer care about quality for consumer laptops it seems.

@justbyte_ No because all them others became way better with Linux the Mac becomes outdated by design, there good only while apple supports it. This is more of a fan boy question rather than knowing your tech facts. Apple is the pimp of tech when it's well used it's done for in there eyes
