I don't know why your getting downvoted and have replies with ACAB...

Keep in mind I come at this from an American perspective.

I do have to disagree with the first paragraph. You do not need to access to or to search my phone to perform your job. If the phone becomes part of a criminal investigation then ideally a warrant would be put out by a judge and a Computer Forensics team would take it from there.

At least in the USA, the bad perception of cops is not just because of their apparent lack of accountability and ability to get away with murder, but also how expansive the scope of their duties are. So much authority intrusted in one person clearly seems to go to their heads more often than not here.

I understand in many European countries the scope of a cops duties is much more restricted. I know Britian doesn't even provide their law enforcement with firearms.

I don't think Valve is going to do anything about a 20 year old beta being leaked.

Imagine using Nano or Vim; when you could be using Cat and Echo.

I never understood the IBM/Redhat hate being directed at Fedora. Imagine being against using Debian because of the Ubuntu Amazon fiasco that happened years back.

People learn the same way, we do things that bring us satisfaction and get us approval.

The Mint team recently made experimental Wayland support available. Still very alpha but I don't think it will be years.

I somehow locked myself out of sudo when trying to give my user permission to read serial devices.

Had to reinstall.

If only game developers optimized their games...

The newest hardware is getting powerful enough that devs are banking on people just buying better cards to play their games.

Toolbx and Distrobox are basically identical.

The only difference is Distrobox is more agnostic and will create .desktop files for containers and applications installed in them automatically. Toolbx you need to make the .desktop manually.

Not like there's a choice to not buy a smart TV.

Everything comes internet enabled, runs software that won't receive updates, comes with a shitty phone app, and some sort of subscription service either to enable features or auto buy product.
