‘It’s embarrassing’: riders say time is up for fossil fuel sponsorship of heat-affected Tour Down Under
This is deeply embarrassing.
When Andrew and I lived in Hahndorf, South Australia, we enjoyed taking a folding chair out to our Main Street in order to watch the bicyclists pass us for this very race. What I loved was how people would wait for the very last person to pass our leg, then we would all scream and cheer for them. YAY! Keep at it! You can do it! YOU ARE AWESOME!
I think the last person received more cheers than anyone!

I removed a package by force because I didn't realize that two packages needed to be upgraded in the same action. In my case it was glibc so even commands like `ls` failed.
So triple check every command where --force is enabled, mistakes have real harsh consequences there.

@Gargron I can't speak for @mitsuhiko of course, but for me it's not a bad thing, but also not necessarily a good thing (again - see above 😉 ).
But in this case, I think there is not a big case against waiting for the hype to calm down: Those tools are very easy to learn, and *everyone* is winging it right now anyway.
@dtanzer @Gargron Politicians and policy makers absolutely shouldn't be late movers.
They need to get on top of things and legislature appropriately before the shit hits the fan and the LLM companies shrug and say either "we told you we didn't guarantee anything" or "externalities like society and the environment aren't our problem when we're making investors money in the short term".
That's not the same as "they need to listen to the hype from the companies selling it and throw all of their support and national investment behind it with a blank cheque to do what they want".

This is great news! Hopefully the critical mass is big enough now to motivate developers to finally fix the horrible Bluetooth errors that are killing my Linux experience every day.
Connection errors, random disconnects, forgets set keyboard repeat rate, it is so extremely annoying if your OS does not even allow you to use a keyboard without problems.
