Maybe he feels like some of those ancient Pharaohs who had the architects building their pyramids killed afterwards in order not to reveal anyone the inner secret passages.
Am I the only one old enough to remember the 2006 deal between Microsoft and Novell? Now Red Hat is on the hot seat with everyone blaming and hating, I remember when Novell was in similar position in terms of community feeling betrayed.
Thank you I feel less alone! Not sure whether it’s a good thing, anyway. In Italy the government is playing the victim and boiling it all down to the plain old argument of “political interferences in judicial councils”. They are working on a judicial reform which looks much a retaliation, though, which is a little worrying.
Rather than “bored” I’d say “more concerned with other issues”. To some extent it’s already happening: war is no more a trendy news and inflation/unemployment/recession/climate are gaining importance. Unless you live in my country where… uh… trials involving ministers and public officers take half of the screen time on the news. 🇮🇹🤌🍕 (All forms of “mass distraction”)
It’s on the instance, it happened to me too some hours ago and all of a sudden all clients stopped working (complaining about me not being logged in). One of the workarounds for the hack was actually invalidating all sessions, so maybe we were all logged off. Source: https://lemmy.ml/post/1953164
People are free to either agree with the CEO view or to not use the platform. Sad but true. At least it reminds us all that it is a private for-profit company and always has been. No matter whether the “value” of it was mostly provided by user-created contents.
Be it for economic reasons, be it for any other reason this is really good news! Kudos to Greece and to all Greek people. My country, Italy, is still below 1% as of June 2023 according to statcounter so there’s still a lot of work to do! Seeing Linux as an option to bring back to life second hand or old hardware, preventing wastes and promoting circular economy is an idea I really like.
I’m not a native but I can try to explain. Greek has two forms of expressing possession: the first is simply the genitive of the personal pronoun (in this case μου is the genitive of the first person singular pronoun εγώ). When expressing possession in this way it always follows the noun it refers to whereas the article comes before e.g. “my house” > “το σπίτι μου” and it’s invariable. (Note that in English possessives are determiners and can not co-exist with articles it’s either one or the other, in Greek this is not the case). The second form is in combination with “δικός” and these behave more like adjectives and must agree in gender and number with the noun they refer to “my house” > “το δικό μου σπίτι” vs “my houses” > “τα δικά μου σπίτια”.
Totally agree. It’s a tendency in all European countries: national healthcare is seen as public expenditure negatively affecting national balance, and private clinics are on the rise. Let’s hope, at least, that taxes will be cut as well, otherwise we’ll end up with a system that has the worst of the European model combined with the worst of the American one.
