TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.worksto Linux@lemmy.ml•If you dual-boot different distributions and want to keep old versions of distros for upgrades, how do you proceed?English2·19 hours agoWhen I update Fedora to a new version it keeps the old version available to boot to on bootup by default. Just another reason why I like Fedora.

Unfortunately, that wasn’t it. This book has many short sections with a question at the end of each one, but the one I remember has fewer longer sections without a question. And it has different stories.

From the literal BBC website this morning:
"This afternoon’s statement from the UK and dozens of other countries calling for an end to the war in Gaza describes the killing over 800 Palestinians trying to receive humanitarian aid as “horrifying”.
There are almost daily reports of Palestinians being killed while seeking aid since the Israeli and US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) began to distribute aid in late May. Both Israel and the GHF have disputed death tolls, recorded by the Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza, however the ministry’s figures are widely seen as a reliable count of bodies seen by Gazan hospitals.
Some of the deadliest incidents in recent days include:
Yesterday, at least 67 people waiting for UN aid lorries in northern Gaza were killed
At least 39 Palestinians seeking food were killed near two aid distribution points in southern Gaza on Sunday
On 20 July, at least 21 people died during a crush at a GHF site in Khan Younis
Ten people, including six children, were killed in an air strike while waiting for water in central Gaza on 13 July
Twenty-four people were killed by Israeli fire near a southern aid site on 12 July
On 11 July, at least 15 people, including eight children, were while queuing for nutritional supplements in front of a clinic in central Gaza

TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.worksto Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•Free Speech Booth, St Louis airportEnglish130·4 days agoWell then that’s not free speech. If there are any limitations, even sensible ones, it needs a different name. Like, limited speech for example
TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.worksto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Social media, even in the Fediverse, is so heavily censored that it does not allow for the exchange of ideas.English3·4 days agoThat’s just not the case when you argue against Marxist Leninism on tankie instances, express any nuance regarding trans people (I say this as a trans person) on blåhaj.zone, or mention other highly charged and divisive subjects. And yes, some people self censor, but only because if they don’t they’ll get properly censored or banned, and have to create a new account.
