@nazokiyoubinbou Friendly reminder that corporate America can, will, and have gone scorched earth when thereโ€™s something they value higher than profits.

For example Walmart shutting down whole stores simply to stop unionization (and their evil propaganda they run for their poor employees).

Canโ€™t do business without banking:(

It has long been curious to me how sex (or even involved romantic relationships) are beyond the pale in video games but ultraviolence is the accepted central premise of the game.

Imagine an Assassinโ€™s Creed where the several thousand body count referred to the number of satisfied sexual partners rather than decapitated guards.

Want to cancel your Adobe subscription but don't want to pay a massive cancellation fee?

1. Sign up for a disposable credit card with a low spending limit (e.g. $5); I use privacy.com/
2. Switch your Adobe billing information to use it; the $1 preauth will go through and your old card will be removed from the account
3. Cancel your account (optional)
4. Cackle for the next 9 months as Adobe repeatedly tells you your account is past-due and it'll be cancelled if you don't pay the fee

This is more of a curiosity, and to see what the bias is here on #Mastodon, so here is a band of characters that might be a potential travel buddy in a month or so. As a poll on this default instance only allows for 4 options, and there are 6 to choose from, respond to this toot with you're choice of travel companion. #Boost this to get the largest audience it can find.

Why I'm not surprised when it's mentioned electron.... ๐Ÿ˜†
in reply to It's FOSS

Have you never ran `yay -Qtd` and removed unnecessary packages?

Electron has a version in the package name for people who need several versions side by side. This means if an app requires electron32, it gets installed as a dependency. Later, if the app switches to requiring electron33, then this version is installed as a dependency. But the version 32 stays installed until you remove it. Use `pacman -Qtd` to find dependencies no package needs anymore.

Are they getting the Amiga rights with it? I think that would be a large contribution toward restoring the Commodore brand, to the point it might not go very far without it.

Last week was the The Crustacean Society summer meeting 2025 in Sorbonne Universitรฉ. It was a great experience with fascinating talks and posters.
I was chair of the Evolution & fossil record session and crayfish session, and I thank all the speakers for their engaging talks.
Two of my former students G. Lebeau and F. Lagrange were even able to attend and one, F. Lagrange, had the best poster award from the organization committee (I did not judge my students talks).
