Thanks for the tip, i had to try it out because i didn’t knew that. It seems in this case the -9 option does the same as default (delete the AntiMicroX process but not the AppRun one). I also tried with killall and its -g option to include all processes in the same group, but they probably are not in a common group since it behaved the same. Anyway, TIL about these options so thank you !

Yup, very clever, I think this will avoid any problem with other potential AppImage processes. Thank you very much <3

For more details : this AppRun.wrapped process is mounted in a partially randomized folder each time, something like /tmp/.mount_AntiMiXXXXXX/AppRun.wrapped, where the Xs are a bunch of random characters. So using pkill with regex can both include all versions this full command line can take, while excluding processes created by other apps (which, I suppose , won’t have ‘AntiMi’ in their folder name) : pkill -f /tmp/.mount_AntiMi.*/AppRun.wrapped

I have no deep knowledge of this, but i guess there is a difference between sponsoring and owning. A lot of big FOSS projects have indeed corporate donations, but i think for the most part corporate cannot force them to do things (the only exception i know of being the deal between Mozilla and Google). Of course, they can threaten to cut fundings, but i think it isnt a real problem (for now) for various reasons : linux ecosystem is still niche enough to be uninteresting for big corpos, donations help projects get better quicker but you can always fork them and come back to more humble progression if needed (not 100% sure, im not very tech literate, but that’s a feeling i get), and i guess FOSS ecosystem also provides big corpos with talented people and occasionally interesting pieces of software, so they have a bit of interest in keeping it alive.
If you want to go towards the least corporate options, you can try the most niche linux options. Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu, made by the enterprise Canonical, which has a somewhat bad reputation in the linux corporation, for being a bit too centralized i guess ? I use it as it is perfect for a not skilled user like me, but if you want to be independant of tech companies, maybe that’s not the perfect choice.

Oh there seem to be some confusion here, my bad. My point was that PS (Socialist Party) is center-right, not LFI (which is left to my eyes and to most people excepting right wing fearmongers). I don’t know what you mean by communist supporters, if you mean people fighting for the worker’s rights outside of existing structures, then yes. If you mean leninist and derivatives, then not only : you’d have to include anarchists, libertarian marxists and close forms of revolutionary socialism.

Do you mean what makes the French Socialist Party a right-wing one? Support for neoliberalism, for worse working conditions, opposition to more democratic alternatives, taking their distances from actions led by common people (anti-cops protests, yellow jackets movments and more recently the 10th of September Block Everything action), etc. They are like living dead, both left and right at the same time : left in the official categories and alliances, right in their political orientation. They’re clearly not hard right conservatives, but they clearly are capitalists supporters.

Historians at least in France typically divide between left and far left as reformists and revolutionary. So they would be simple left. Just because the old school left parties now support right-wing policies should not make the whole political spectrum move to rhe right. Although right-wingers are playing this card right now in France, calling former leftists with neoliberal programs “left”, reformists “far left” and revolutionary “ultra left” (no joke) but this is outright manipulation and should precisely be avoided.

If i’m not mistaken, i vaguely remember some rule about how you cannot condemn an accomplice if you cannot condemn the culprit. Could be wrong though and maybe they can still be condamned for something else.

In the same sense, there recently was a disclosure of footages of this kind of camera during a massive protest in france, with thousands on each side. It was very violent, with two protesters into coma if i’m right. Turns out, police forces were told beforehand to “record to prove we’ve done nothing wrong”. The result is hours of footages of insults, illegal use of their gear, call to use lethal weapons, and pleasure of sending people to hospital, because those morons forgot to turn the cameras off when those happened.

+1. I ragequit windows when it reinstalled Teams during an OS update, just after i uninstalled it.

Interesting numbers for people who dont wanna read :

• on all the new contributors they taught, only ~5% were flagged by the AI detection tool.
• on the AI flagged articles, only 7% presented sources that didn’t even exist. Most of the AI outputed correct statements with existing sources.
• however, north of 66% of AI articles failed verification : the citations or facts could not be found in the sources provided by AI

It was a quite debated matter amongside law specialists, if i remember my time learning it. Like there was an obligation of community in the text, translated as an obligation of sexuality in jurisprudence since more than a century, but some recent interpretation of it were far more tolerant. I remember one case where judges ruled that a lesbian woman married to an asexual man for the apparences, and both living their sexual lives separately was still proper marriage because they cared for each other. Still was kind of an exception though, i’m happy to see it change officially at last.

People are pointing out some aspects this group revendicates : it targeted a neighbourhood with many rich people, they apologized for every struggling people affected by this, they used the same tactic against Tesla factory. Don’t know what to think about it, those are just the comments of people that seem a bit knowledgeable about the situation.

Never really discovered stuff, so the coolest one is kinda by default John Hamon, like a lot of people who went to Paris

Ooooh it makes so much sense to leave it perpetually in the pot! I never understood why it was a thing, because there was always a bit of honey remaining on it and that felt weird, but now i get it, thank you for explaining.

Well beyond the meme or the tankie attempt at propaganda or anything, those are not at all exclusive. What Bob says has nothing to do with showing Patrick was wrong. Or am i missing the point here?

Well, that’s precisely the point of view i dislike (which was not the pov of the article actually, it seems). Though the logic behind it is clear, though the legitimacy of self defense makes sense, especially in this case, and especially in the cyberconflict going on, and though i appreciate your straight to the point explanation, i still think that in the case of armed preemptive strikes (and not cyberattacks as in the article), it only makes sense from the point of view of country versus country, and not of peoples governed by more or less autocratic leaders. If your goal is for one side to prevail, then sure, striking first can make sense. If your goal is for the less civilians to get hurt, no matter their side, then it’s way less clear. Striking first could then be a less bad option, if it leads to less violence in the end, but i cannot see it being the best option.

Never said NATO goes against international law, and i’m no specialist on the matter. Responding to attacks is indeed different from “pre-emptive strikes” which would be the “warmonger bs” i was talking about. I dont know if its pre-emptive or not, still hasnt read the article, only the tagline.

Defend doesn’t mean steal them in return. I hate seeing this confusion between “defending” and “attacking”. A way more fair comparison, whefe you could still defend “attack” while still making sense to only “defend” is : when someone strikes you, do you strike back? Though, as others corrected me, i thought this article was about actual strikes, not cyberfuckery. I admit it kinda applies less here, and my point was about general warmongering i hear about, and not this article.

Did not read it, thx for bringing this to my attention. With all the bs france military fuckers are saying about war, i just assumed it was the same. You can consider my point invalidated there.

Oh yes, Russia is far ahead on warmongering. Fuck their leaders and their military. But because someone does incredible evil shit does not mean you can start doing same kind of shit without being treated as such.
