Yeah… It always being there hardly makes it a “renaissance”, no?

Yes, but you also said it should be protected in “all cases” but went on about “exceptions”. Assistance in dying doesn’t fit this criteria that would make it acceptable as most definitely not everyone agrees with it. Some DNRs don’t either. The idea that the “whole society” needs to agree is also pretty disputable, and comes with its own set of moral issues. The question of professionals being “properly” trained on the matter as well (what does this mean?).

I just think it’s a lot more complex than “save everyone always”, and the exceptions aren’t that straightforward.

Human life is to be protected, rescued etc. in all cases.

Where does a DNR and medical assistance in dying fit in this?

It’s not so much opposition rather than other BSDs having almost negligible desktop presence… If we really want to get into semantics, too, Linux is technically not UNIX.

I honestly just use it for my resume with a template I found, so my knowledge is extremely basic, but I really do love the concept that I can “compile” and actually see the source of my document’s formatting.

Say this to my very large Canadian ISP who still doesn’t support IPv6 for residential customers. Last I checked, adoption in Canada was still under 50%.

How so? Outside very niche stuff or podcasts I just don’t seem to it used that often.

The maximum amount of light that can get in your camera is determined by the aperture size, meaning how large the hole in front of the sensor can open, also commonly called f-stop. Smaller f-stop means more light (as it’s a ratio)

The Realme’s regular wide-angle back camera has a maximum aperture of f/1.8, while Pixel has f/1.85. Meaning technically, they’re more or less equivalent, you shouldn’t get that much more light in so little time. This could be the Realme camera software making really shit post-processing…

You don’t have to look too far, honestly. It’s advertising/marketing driven, most of the time. They have a brand and image to maintain, and anything that slightly deviates from it tends to get shut down really quickly. The extremists I was talking about are the ones driving that uproar you mentioned. Most people don’t give enough of a flying fuck to do anything about any of it past the Facebook argument they’ll get into anyway.

These changes do tend to be driven by younger generations, that’s just how it is... I remember Gen Xers complaining about us Millenials wanting to change the world and being very difficult to manage, when we were joining the workforce lol

I mean, yeah, sure. But at this point, if that’s really a worry, one should not trust any sandbox. OSes are huge and complex and will have vulnerabilities too. Hell, there could be a xz level backdoor currently in the wild and nobody knows any better lol

That’s… quite the dedication. I personally just never downloaded things or ran random executables from porn sites, but hey… who am I to judge, I guess
