I deleted my 11yr high karma account on 1st July. I had another before that which was a couple of years or so old.

I did it in protest but as an interesting side effect, my mental health has improved slightly. Guess actively engaging with toxicity does have an effect.

As someone who was working in IT support at the time - YAY! NO MORE FUCKING TRUMPET WINSOCK!

Exactly. It exposes the bias in the headline wording designed to trigger a reaction because this is Amazon, but companies move all the time, and a percentage of the workforce will always prefer not uprooting themselves, no matter how good or bad their employer.

"independent" - Is it though?

Redhat are the major sponsors of Fedora, much as they sponsored Centos before taking it over and killing it in classic "Embrace, Extend, Extinguish".

I have doubts about the future of the entire EL ecosphere - I know not many enterprise level organisations are investing deeply into it right now, whether that's with RHEL or a rebuild. Too much doubt about Redhat's intentions with RHEL and the future of it.

Have you checked syslog and apts logs?

Also, simply uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox shouldn't lose all your settings. Silly question, but are you sure you're the same local user? Also, Firefox syncs this stuff so all sounds odd.

A correct and helpful answer. HA is phenomenal, although some report the learning curve is steep - it's totally worth it.

I use it with lots of different vendors and it consolidates and coordinates everything between everything else.

Can't we have a new game instead please?

A random thought I had. I think the answer is no, but I'm not that certain. Convince me please.

That's the joke, but it's really not true.

You can write unintelligable code in most languages.

Perl's syntax is fine, and you can write beautiful code with it - but it will also let you write fugly code that works.

I think those who say this seriously just don't understand Perl, or even programming generally. (Whilst I like Perl, I'm also proficient in C, Java, JS, Python, PHP, Bash and probably a few more, so I'm not just promoting the only thing I know.)

Be nice if the browser version auto loaded images like most apps do.

Perl. Its installed everywhere I need to run it and stuff I wrote over 20 years ago is still doing exactly what it should.

Might be worth waiting for some news outlets you've actually heard of to start carrying the story before you break out the balloons.

This feels like a cynical ploy for funding, like almost every "miracle battery" story carried over the past ten years.

An exceptionally well explained rant that I find myself in total agreement with.
