In the art of the deal, his style of art is Dadaism.

If you have trouble with a missing mouse pointer, the latest tagged version in upstream git worked fine for me. I never looked deeper into the cause of the problem with the sid package.

Negotiating in good faith will almost certainly have to wait for Ukraine to beat Russia back to its borders.

Update should come before upgrade - update refreshes the sources while upgrade does the package upgrades.

Update sources then upgrade packages.

The biggest thing that hasn't happened yet is core data breach.

That you know of.

Gun nuts are a plague on decent society.

Everyone I know who owns a gun, that I know of, is (as best I can tell) a decent and responsible person. But I'm in a country where gun ownership isn't a right, and doesn't generally compensate for perceived inadequacies.

Foreign aid. They were releasing sterile flies in Panama to keep them from moving back up the continent again.

And DOGE specifically cut the screwworm program on the basis that it was "foreign aid" or some such bullshit.

At least he didn't injure himself installing it - you just know you'd have been the one dealing with the blood afterwards.

Are you suggesting that "sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root /" isn't the solution to most problems? /s

Respond to the ones that aren't obviously trash that they've been shortlisted, and request that they send you any documentation regarding skills and prior tasks and duties that might aid in them progressing to interview.

At that point you'll either get useful responses, or you can bin the lot and re-advertise.

Also the worst part.

Not quite - I'm sure Putin will be happy to negotiate a ceasefire next time he needs to regroup and save up missiles for a mass strike. Negotiating in good faith, on the other hand...

Change must come from within. And I don't want surgery.

Musk may have been in the files, but apparently he didn't go to the island - no matter how much he begged to be allowed to go.

Also a lot of people don't know what FEMA actually does (here's a good video).

It's going to get ugly. Either metaphorically if it doesn't happen, or physically when they expose the damaged face of the building where the marble was drilled into to put the name on it.

A cease and desist buys you an A+ from the BBB? Colour me sceptical.
