Yes, basically agree.

But I just think it's kind of obvious why they only block one ethnicity, I believe protecting consumers was only the second priority here.

It simply makes no sense that it only blocks Chinese citizens specifically.

I don't want anyone to buy/own housing which goes uninhabited for a long time while there are so many homeless people who need a place to call home.

It's difficult to imagine a person struggling to buy/rent an apartment/house, and for them to get mad about nationalities, rather than the fact that housing needs to be an "investment opportunity" over being recognized as the basic human need that it really is.

I hardly care if it's Chinese people, Wallstreet, some Big Tech corporation, or just individual landlords driving up prices.

Housing must be accessible to all people, if a society wants to call itself civilized.

This bill going against Chinese citizens, rather than all foreigners tells you all you need to know about the real motivations behind it.

Could've worked on tackling climate change, inflation, homelessness, (some form of) European style health care, labour rights, or expand public transit, but they choose to discriminate against transgender people for zero gain.

Why are the United States so wird?

And how do you even enforce such a law effectively?
Many people have very good passing, and there have already been (self video-) recorded cases of cisgender people getting "accused" of being trans by some transphobe.

No one even wants these laws, at least most people don't.

And why is the headline so non-judgemental? "Regulates" isn't a good fit for tyranny imo.

Removing /repo is not considered safe, but I just removed its contents anyways and then just ran a repair.

That actually resulted in more available disk space than after running the garbage collection.

And my flatpak apps still work 🤷‍♀️

Their website is slickapp.co (without the m at the end), but their Android package name is com.slickapp.

Isn't that a bit of an issue?
For example, when handling URLs?

Rather disappointing.

I'd be in favor of a law requiring the labeling of such products, but this seems to overreach; especially when applied to animal feed.

How well does Ansible work when I want to change my config? Is a quick reboot sufficient!

[–] tanja@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago

What do you use, then?

Given the context, I'd assume either Arch or Fedora Silverblue 🤔

[–] tanja@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 year ago

Fedora Silverblue and NixOS looking very interesting ✨👀

[–] tanja@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 year ago

Thanks for the detailed response.

I'll probably go for either a Fedora Atomic Desktop or NixOS.

[–] tanja@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thanks, that makes sense.

Do you think the use of OCI containers/images is a mistake/bad choice from blendOS?
How is NixOS different?

[–] tanja@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago

How do those compare to NixOS and blendOS in your opinion in terms of usability, flexibility and stability, considering an (at least mostly) tech-literate audience?

Given I'm still on Manjaro, would you recommend I consider NixOS, Fedora Silverblue, or blendOS?
