Ubuntu Server 25.10 drops wget by default; wcurl takes over.Sourav Rudra (It's FOSS News)
Ubuntu has been confusing me lately. They keep making sweeping changes that rework their entire distro away from the common standards. Yet they seem to be doing so based on extremely shallow reasoning? Why streamline? What bug are your trying to resolve? I know it ain't a size problem cause server isos are tiny. Are they bored?
TLDR; Why they streamlining and please tell me they have a default alias for wget to wcurl?

I'm updating satellite numbers for yet another talk.
There now 8,077 Starlink satellites in orbit, 1,240 have already been burned up in the atmosphere, depositing all their metal, plastic, and computer bits in the stratosphere as weird vapour (data from planet4589.org/space/con/conli…)
12,238 active satellites now catalogued. The fraction of Starlinks is actually holding pretty steady lately because so many other operators have started launching. Over 200 satellites launched this month.
It's been 3 days since I put in these numbers and just to make sure I am super angry as I go to bed, I checked again.
There area now 8,093 Starlink satellites in orbit, out of 12,308 total active satellites. 1,243 Starlink satellites have burned up.
As with almost everything else happening, this is so fucking stupid, and I'm going to keep yelling about it. To calm myself down, I'd go outside and look up, but guess what I'd see?

Thank you SO much Conversation! I've been trying to tell people for a number of years now that their worries about a declining birth rate are not well founded.
Fears that falling birth rates in US could lead to population collapse are based on faulty assumptions
"...The population collapse narrative hinges on three key misunderstandings. First, it misrepresents what standard fertility measures tell us about childbearing and makes unrealistic assumptions that fertility rates will follow predictable patterns far into the future. Second, it overstates the impact of low birth rates on future population growth and size. Third, it ignores the role of economic policies and labor market shifts in assessing the impacts of low birth rates..."
I would add to the faulty reasoning:
~ the replacement theory concerning POCs.
~ fear of women in the work force
~ loss of a base for pyramid scheme capitalists
~ environmental stress from loss of habitat to housing, etc.
Fears that falling birth rates in US could lead to population collapse are based on faulty assumptions
While the changes in population structure that accompany low birth rates are real, the impact of these changes has been dramatically overstated.The Conversation

@Jay Bryant I agree, its not just video games, but games of any sort have this value in maintaining and boosting intelligence, advancing neuron connections, pattern recognition, mathematical prowess etc. Video games add the ability to do so at one's own timing pace when there is no one locally to participate with.
This why games like Scrabble, Chess, etc. are also important learning tools, whether in traditional form or as videogames. The same of course applies to even more complex games and systems in computer games and online games where you have to deal with numerous other factors and adapt and develop strategies on the go due to random things like terrain in movement, resource management etc.

And that the inference “if we call for boycotting Israeli businesses that are tied to this genocide then we should also boycott the Auschwitz foundation” isn’t that illogical. And that it’s hypocritical to say “Never again” while you just do it again.
I justified my views using the following sources:
The fact that you ignored all of these arguments, cherrypicked only a few words that were convenient to you, threatened me to report me to the HR of my employer and then tried to frame me as a Nazi to get my instance defederated (ignoring that my grandpa fought those scumbags on the Italian Appennines and helped Jews, and that I have stood up against fascist intimidation throughout most of my life, and even put myself in danger to defend both Jewish or Arab friends) says much more about YOUR intimidation techniques than the alleged weakness of MY arguments!
People like YOU who keep arguing for their unaccountability and exploit the tragedies of the past to justify the tragedies of the present, and who act like cold bureaucrats at the service of a foreign propaganda regime that refuses to argue and reason (despite all the “I’m open to discuss” bullsh*t you wrote on your profile), and instead just try to screw other people’s lives and prevent civilized discourse about certain topics on the basis of a few keywords that they grab, are the worst disgrace and insult to the memory of the dead, not those like ME who just demand for accountability without taboos and without biases!
And rest assured that your mafia thug intimidation techniques don’t work with me! The whole world is seeing what kind of thugs you are, and your arrogance is an insult to all the good Jewish folks out there!
And if you refuse to respond to any other arguments I’ve laid in front of you I’d just like an answer to a simple question: do you do this kind of witch hunt because you’re genuinely a despicable human being who refuses to embrace the nuances and complexities behind such complex topics, or because you have financial incentives from it?

Asking for the temporary close down of Jews museums, to separate themselves, from the #Israel #Zionist is a great idea. Many Jews are against israel.
Zionist killed 60000+ people and are #starving a couple of millions. Commiting #war #crimes and commiring a #genocide in #gaza and an #ethnic #cleansing, according to the #ICJ in #hague.
Stop programming for a few hours and read what the world says in mastodon. And don't pretend to be more clever or witty than the rest of the world and the ICJ judges.
Germany and germans are loosing this argument, big time, all over the world.
Israel are #criminals and #murderers since 1948. That is an historical fact as big as the Jewish Holocaust.

I have called for the accountability of those behind those foundations and the right investigations to ensure that:
- They don’t have ties with the current regime and with the IDF, and don’t act like acts of propaganda (something that unfortunately some foundations have done a bit too often lately - proofs were provided in my posts).
- The money they get is reinvested into proper historical research, initiatives for peace and condemnation of all the genocides (and they’re currently failing to do that too), and not to fund the bombs on Gaza (something that they can’t confirm as long as they have high-ranking IDF staff on their boards, example:

Once we are sure that we’re all in good faith we can support them as much as we’ve always done. But now I don’t think that many of those folks are really doing a good job keeping the memory of the dead alive, nor that they are in good faith.
Just like right now I wouldn’t feel comfortable to buy Israeli oranges because I can’t be sure that they were not grown on stolen land, so I don’t feel comfortable going to a Holocaust museum without knowing that the money for my ticket goes to historical research and initiatives for peace rather than social media posts that boast about “Israel’s military might”. And I have the right to express this opinion without retaliation.
I acknowledge that these are hard topics to talk about. I acknowledge that people can flare up as soon as they hear a word that triggers them. But it doesn’t mean that they shouldn’t be talked about. Nor that I should be framed like a Nazi for talking about them. Nor that talking about them means that at the first cherry-picked word I may lose my job or the federation of the instance that I’ve administered for years. Because these are thug threats and fascist intimidation techniques that I’ve been trained to fight and I will keep fighting.
Btw, do you have some comments about the NYT article from the Jewish professor that I’ve used for some of the quotes in my incriminated posts archive.is/QQZak?
Or about some of the material about the Auschwitz foundation shared by relatives of survivors who are rightfully offended by the foundation sharing automated posts pulled from outdated databases with incorrent information?

With respect, no he isn’t. He’s expressing an opinion that using an historical tragedy to mask abhorrent behavior now is unacceptable. He is entitled to his opinion, as are we all.
He is not suggesting that the offending museums should be closed or that their portfolios should be distributed elsewhere or erased.
The ‘different bar’ is a fair comment, but argue this point, not some other invented offence.
