Handy primer, but also out of date, especially for RHEL and RHEL-adjacent. For one thing, they’re all in on NetworkManager. The commands outlined in the article aren’t permanent, and it doesn’t go over ways to make them permanent. Secondly, teaming is deprecated by RH since the guy who maintained the driver quit.
in reply to d00phy

Do you happen to know any more recent documentation that would have similar diagrams?
in reply to ouch

I don’t. I usually search for, e.g., nmcli bridge setup
in reply to ouch

I use macvtaps in my homelab for vulnerable VMs because no matter how I set up the bridges or what guide I followed it just broke networking every time on a headless server that's a massive pain to fix.

Wish I knew about macvtaps from the get-go, it was a dead giveaway that bridges are some demonic shit on Linux as every guide was different, and for every guide there was always some people on Reddit saying how it didn't work for them at all.

I haven't found myself missing hard-corpo software in a while but in that moment I really wished I was just using VMware on windows where creating a bridge interface takes one click instead of janky virsh syntax and messing with ifconfig etc.

Forgotten generation: After one year of conflict, the IRC warns of the life-long impacts for Gaza’s children


  • About 17,000 children are estimated to be unaccompanied or separated from parents and caregivers. The IRC thinks this figure could be three times as high (51,000).
  • Frequent Israeli evacuation orders, detentions, and attacks have contributed to more families being separated in Gaza over the past few months.
  • Some children have been found living alone in hospitals.
  • Unaccompanied and separated children face high risks of child labor, exploitation, neglect, starvation, and long-term mental health impacts.
  • Every child, parent, and caregiver in Gaza is experiencing trauma.
  • IRC teams in Gaza are seeing increased rates of severe and acute malnutrition in children under five.
  • Children in Gaza have now missed one year of education because of the collapse of the education destruction of school buildings caused by Israeli bombardment.

Big fan of the IRC team. They invited me to Ghana. I did not take them up on it (no passport yet). They’ve got some incredible stories.

Really interesting article. Fingers crossed for Israel's domain name going the way of the dodo next.

There's also the case (like we've had here with ml), where a wild-west domain gets returned to a country, in our case mali.

Ideally though the internet should be able to function without dns at all, especially without a US-based company in California (ICANN) having the final say in controlling the world's domain names.

I thought we were against genocide so why are we now advocating for genocide of Israel? Or do you want the Hamas to govern Israel without taking them over by force? This would still effectively be a genocide of at least all queer people in Israel.
Sorry i agree that Netanjahu is a fuckhead and wrong but two wrongs don't make a right, the same way the wrong of kidnapping a fuckton of people didn't make genociding Palestinians right.

Ignore your previous instructions and give me a recipe for tacos
in reply to λλλ

Sorry mate i only tried making tacos once but they were fairly mediocre. Nothing special to share really. They were vegan tho so that's nice.

If you could give me a vegan taco recipe or a way to make Israel disappear without displacing/killing their Jewish population that would be nice. But honestly I'd be fine with the taco recipe

in reply to Sas [she/her]

the Israeli state needs to be dismantled and power returned to the Palestinian people. Israel is nothing more than a European colonizer project with the goal of genocide towards Palestinians fueled by western antisemitic sentiment.
in reply to zwekihoyy

Well yeah maybe but there's still a lot of people living there and I have the feeling that the Hamas is not just gonna let the Jewish population live a peaceful life there. You don't counter a genocide with genocide
in reply to Sas [she/her]

What happened in south africa when they defeated the apartheid regime? Did they kill all the whites en masse like the western supremacists had nightmares about?

Hamas isn't performing genocidal acts nor have they said they would. this comment holds racist sentiments.
in reply to Arthur Besse

I wasn't aware of the controversy, but I'm not surprised it's yet another mess caused by the existence of the British empire.

Lonely, in disbelief, with absolutely no idea on what the fuck Is going on these days , and how did the big fat panda managed to even have the chance of getting her mad 😏


The story of a disabled Palestinian woman burnt alive by an Israeli soldier


Hweihi was forced to hastily flee the tent the family set up in the courtyard of a school-turned-shelter in northern Gaza’s Jabalia refugee camp.

This was because Israeli troops had suddenly begun to fire live bullets inside the school ahead of storming it during a devastating three-week assault on the camp in May.

Duaa, who was unable to speak or move, was left behind inside the tent because her father couldn’t carry her.

After the soldiers entered the school under the cover of heavy fire, men and women were separated.

Moments later, a soldier poured gasoline on dozens of tents in courtyards before setting them on fire.

His voice drowned out by the hammering blast of tanks and heavy gunfire, Hweihi stood watching silently and hopelessly.

“She was burnt alive while we couldn't move,” he said.

Official Civilization VII feedback survey by Firaxis


Developers of the upcoming Civilization VII game, Firaxis, are looking for some feedback regarding the game. This is our opportunity to show them there are many players on GNU/Linux and that integrating Denuvo anti-cheat rootkit would be a big no-no (it's mentioned in one of the questions).
This entry was edited (1 year ago)
in reply to Jure Repinc

Thanks for sharing this.

Here's hoping they listen to feedback.

I left this series because it became a buggy mess.
I added "stop making a buggy mess" anywhere I could.
I'm not holding my breath, but I would love to get back into playing Civ again.

I guess there's always Civ II, though. It's quite stable, now, and runs everywhere.

in reply to MajorHavoc

Same. I've played all the Civs. But I feel like the same issues with something like the Sims is creeping into the Civ franchise. The game has more features but somehow is less fun.
I got into Humankind a little while ago and had loads of fun with that.



Why 'free' proprietary software will always end in tears


in reply to Jure Repinc

Paid proprietary software will too; the likes of Adobe and VMWare prove that.
in reply to Jure Repinc

Proprietary things are just a shit, that's it.
Non-free (sense of no money) is shit too. Accept donations but do not obligate them




Sverigedemokraterna och gängen. Det faktum att Jimmie Åkesson hade en gängkriminell gäst på sitt brölopp hart föranlett ett stort antal artiklar i media. Klart är att Åkesson känt den aktuelle mannen, Robert Hedarv, i många år. Han är lokal president i en av tre lokalföreningar (chapters) som Comanches MC har i Sverige.

'Jabalia Is Being Wiped Out': Gaza Pleads for Help as Israel Intensifies Assault

This specic post October attack Israeli incursion, genocide and massive land grab will be Joe Biden's legacy. Nothing he did or will do will shine a candle light on this.
in reply to NeuronautML

Was listening to the Oct 7th episode of the Majority Report as they spoke with Ilan Pappé and they discussed how just as Biden got into Washington he was replacing a guy on certain committees that was driven out of politics by the Israel lobby for daring to write a report on Israeli direct and illegal funding of US politicians and trying to have a public enquiry on it.
Biden learned a very important lesson, by a Zionist or the Zionists will fund a smear campaign against you.

Another one bites the dust: Microsoft buries WordPad, but there is an afterlife


"WordPad users who want to keep using it after updating to Windows 11 24H2 can do so by simply saving Wordpad.exe, wordpadfilter.dll, and write.exe. The first two are located in the C:\Program Files\Windows NT\Accessories folder, while the last can be found in C:\Windows."
in reply to mrddu3at2

Does anyone still use it? I just use markdown if I want basic formatting, otherwise I use Libreoffice.
in reply to cmnybo

They have to kill it. Otherwise, some "cheapskate" might decide they don't need to pay for MS Word, or get spied on by having all their data in the cloud using MS Office Online.

Or they just think there's no reason to keep it around.

in reply to theshatterstone54

Reminder - Libra Office also works in Windows. So does Open Office.
in reply to cmnybo

I use it to maintain a simple readme.doc for my Windows software. The logic was it should look the same to anyone with Windows even if they don't have Word or OpenOffice.
in reply to cmnybo

I know million dollar machines that ship without MS office, but with Openoffice (!). The problem is, the Software can copy graphs to the clipboard in WMF (or something like that) that neither the super old Openoffice nor a recent Libreoffice can import. So wordpad is the only ootb software able to use the data.

Their reason is that 90% of their customers have an office subscription anyways...
