I’ve been wondering when Russia would take the gloves off and send in Segal. I guess after the government collapsed.

I think he left Damascus before homs fell.

The military didn’t really seem like they wanted to fight for a dictator that already abdicated his throne.

I think we just get to wait and see. 🙈

I have no idea. It was titled something like “rebels take over Damascus airport”. Then I went on flight radar and saw the airplane taking off with no destination set.

I can’t verify how “real” it is other than I saw it on social media right before that airplane took off and saved it. Everything today moved pretty quickly.

Personally I don’t think Assad was on that flight.

Sorry I don’t remember the original source but here’s the video. https://files.catbox.moe/2n2y9q.mp4

I watched that live. The video from the airport a few minutes before was surreal.

Mod handled that super poorly and doubled down on being wrong… Honestly it’s a master class on what not to do.

If you are banned from blahaj (or any other instance) your posts here will not federate on that instance. The refederation applies to the community not individual users or CDRMITTENS. That would need to be addressed by them with the other Lemmy instances admin team.

So to be clear if you use blahaj to view ncd you will still not see posts by CDRMITTENS until he appeals his ban with them.

Talking with ada this seemed to be a poorly handled miscommunication. Ada and her mod team are not selectively removing our content but they have banned some of our more active posters and this is the source of the original drama.

I was thinking more along the line of user bans. Usually from what I gather they end up mailing all the mods to figure out why they are banned. It creates extra work that could probably be avoided.

Unbanning users from a community is a whole process in itself as well since you have to find a post they made.

Moderators of the community can see what mod did what action. I don’t think users can. It should at least show the user that was “moderated” what mod did the action so they know who to complain to first.

I agree the mod log for communities should be public or at least have the option to make it that way. More transparency is always good.

In some jurisdictions that is still considered csam. Even if it’s animated or whatever excuse…

The more I look at this picture the more I wonder if I’m dreaming or hallucinating. Like is the ceiling fan off center? Is the whole room just slanted? What’s with the bottles of green liquid is it bong cleaner? Imagine trying to bring a girl into this room for sexy time.

😊 for the most part you can just use the tar command to back stuff up in the most half-assed way.

For example: sudo tar cvzf /tmp/backup.tgz /home/

Or change /home/ to whatever directory has stuff you care about.

Then plug in a USB drive and copy /tmp/backup.tgz with the gui and it should contain your user data if you need it. It’s pretty much like making a zip file for a backup…

Then this to delete the backup file: sudo rm /tmp/backup.tgz

tar xvf ./backup.tgz to extract it or just use the gui.

My friends have asked me to do basic Linux stuff for them in my off hours and I generally oblige, if it seems quick and I know they are not going to call me having a meltdown in a few weeks if something unrelated breaks. Especially since it sounds like you already put in quite a bit of legwork trying on your own.

I wish I could help more but I’ve gone out of my way to not use Nvidia or Intel products for over a decade. So I have no idea. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ I think that the Nvidia webpage has like a .run file you can use to install them but that might just make things worse…

Try asking here you will probably get the best answer: https://forum.zorin.com/c/hardware-support/7

For almost the cost of one Twitter the second greatest military in the world has been brought to a stand still.
