Introduction to Linux interfaces for virtual networking | Red Hat Developer [2018-10-22]

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.
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.
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.
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
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
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.
I got into Humankind a little while ago and had loads of fun with that.

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.

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

in reply to Arthur Besse • • •They took over an executive's office and a cafeteria. Not knowing that you'd be fired as a result is a severe lack of judgement.
Protests are important. But you have to understand that there will be consequences for your actions. Embrace that going in.
Saying that you didn't think they'd actually fire you comes off as childish.

in reply to joao • • •Most people, and especially most techies at places like Google have lived lives where systems appeared to play by the rules, where their legal rights are respected. So, it hits you out of nowhere the first time a company does something blatantly illegal to suppress dissent or union organizing. It's hard to internalize that it'll happen until it happens to you or someone you care about.
It's why a classic mistake union organizers make is to not understand just how harshly a corporation will crack down on you, and that you have to be organizing in secret until you're ready to win the power struggle that'll ensue once you tip your hand to your bosses.

in reply to joao • • •If you went to work and started protesting in the office, would you be fired?
I can't think of any job where that would not be the case.
Much less taking over an executive's office.
There's nothing wrong with fighting for what you believe in. Just own the consequences. It's a good thing to protest war.

That's not the same as supporting the CCP and the Uyghur genocide.
