The poster account name matches the website name. Very creative advertising.

The best source for this story is a tactical gear store?

Cocaine Bear

Hmm, oh well. As long as you found your happy place…

Hmm, well, “works on my computer” is never a helpful comment but I have a heavily modified panel that I moved to the top with no issues.

I’m using the built-in task manager widget rather than a dock. Maybe that’s why?

Mind me asking what distro? And Wayland or X11? Also, which dock?

I’m using Wayland and Fedora (Plasma 6.4) and also had a good experience with NixOS (6.3, also Wayland).

Have you considered using a mesh VPN instead of opening a port to the public? Nebula and TailScale are both great options that have a free tier which is more than enough for most home use cases. With Nebula you can even selfhost your discovery node so nothing is cloud-based, but then you’re back to opening firewall ports again.

Anyway, its going to be more secure than even a properly configured reverse proxy setup and way less hassle.

Palestinian babies

Plenty of people in The West^R don’t consider them worthy of empathy, but a white woman of small stature who first became famous as a child might be a different story. We need a mass worldwide cultural shift to identifying all humans as part of the in group or we aren’t going to make it through this century.

It was 2 million across the country, not a single city. Still impressive though.

Italians shutting down their country to defend Palestinians and in America we can’t even strike to defend ourselves.

When’s the last time you tried Plasma? I felt the same way about it as you did until version 6. I’ve been driving it now since 6.2 and its at least as polished as Gnome but with WAY more features and almost infinite customization out of the box.

You have no idea what I’m doing. Get off your high horse.

If you make martyrs you aren’t advancing the cause.

Yes, this exactly.

And what do you expect us to achieve other than getting ourselves killed?

General strike is the only answer.

Bring the economy to a halt via general strike and street marches that disrupt traffic. Nothing short of that will get anyone’s attention.

That’s a little disingenuous. The Immigration and Naturalization Service had insecure men terrorizing immigrants from 1933 until they were absorbed by ICE in 2003.

The only one of your sources that directly contradicts what I am claiming is the Wikipedia line about the source being publicly available. But that is inaccurate. All the major open source licenses require source code be available to anyone who has access to the executable form of the software - not the public in general. So, if some FOSS software is available to download on the Internet without any restriction on its access, then so must the source code. Most FOSS software is distributed this way.

However, if you write software under an open source license, you are not required to share that software with anyone. The license requires you to distribute the source ALONG WITH the software. But it doesn’t require you to make the software freely available to everyone, or anyone.

Tying back to my original point, which has been derailed by myriad people who refuse to read before thinking they know things, I was saying that we don’t need exceptions for military software because it can be licensed as open source without that code being handed over to our enemies. But requiring it to be open source would, for example, preclude the DoD from building kill switches into the F-35s that they sell to our allies, because they’d be required to share the design of the plane’s control systems along with the product - again, only to the people who receive a copy of the product - not to the public at large.

Its not just GPL. MPL, BSD work this way as well. And the original post refers to open source, not “code available to all”. Come back with a commonly used open source license that enforces what you’re describing and maybe you’ll have a point. Otherwise, why are we arguing about things that can just be looked up?

That is simply not true. Go read a few open source licenses and see for yourself. They only require that the source code be distributed with copies of the software itself. The code is not required to be made available to the general public.
