It's nice being able to love in people's heads rent-free.

Damn, I didn't know that!

Huh, that's the first time I've heard of this. I like IPFS, but I do wish it was just a bit... Smoother to use?

That's what I mean by a lack of a standard for markdown. There needs to be at least a core standards for stuff (like bolding and italics), that is universal across stuff. Then if a program wants to add onto it, that's fine. But just the core parts being standardized would help a lot.

Markdown really should have more widespread support than it does. It's just the right mix between plain text and an office document, I took my college notes with it in fact cause of how fast it was to format stuff. But as far as I know, there's no default program on any of the (major) OS's or Distros for viewing it.

Maybe it's just due to a lack of standards for formatting or something, but regardless I do wish it was used and supported more.

It's great seeing HeliBoard come so far, especially after it seemed like OpenBoard was potentially dead. I'm still a (firewalled on CalyxOS) GBoard user, but HeliBoard is the closest I've found to a viable replacement for it. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing what future developments it has in store.

If you run a rolling release distro, or one that tends to ship more updated packages, you may need to check up on this and make sure you're not using the compromised versions of the xz compression library.

Here is a site detailing the current known history of how the malicious exploiter got access to the repository and what he had pushes to it.

Neo-Launcher is still being worked on, they are expecting to push version 1.0 later this year to GitHub, but progress has been steady from what I know. You can get the latest beta version of Neo-Launcher from their Telegram to try out. Don't let the "beta" part turn you off, it's basically production ready, I've been using it now as my launcher for well over a year, possibly even 2 at this point.

Coming up on 5 years here for me. Things have progressed a lot in those 5 years too.

Yeah, I remember that. Was it in the client or in an installed game?

And yeah, backups are the most important from the users end to do. Sandboxing and proper permissions is something KDE needs to focus on.

Or at least not alert the user that it has those powers. This would suggest KDE needs some ranked permissions for their themes and add-ons to prevent this from happening willy-nilly.

Malicious KDE theme can wipe out all your data

Or is it just buggy?

 

SomeOrdinaryGamer just gave one of the best 1st-time Linux tutorial videos I've seen in quite some time. The fact he did so with an audience of 3.7 million subscribers is even more incredible.

Great video, and while I'm not necessarily a huge fan of Mint, it's still a great starting out point for newbies. Definitely a good video to pass along to any potential/prospective Linux users so they can learn the ropes of things.

Great list of books that serve as introductions to Traditional Witchcraft.

 

A great video from a channel that's done some great work exploring the esoteric and occult works and ideas of the past.

Welcome to all who follow the Crooked Path.

Welcome to those who dare to look behind the veils and peer over the hedge.

Welcome to those who follow the old ways and help keep them alive.

Welcome to those who seek the higher natures of reality and being.

Welcome to those who's clairs are found and their mind's open.

Welcome to those who consult the cards, bones, runes, sticks and more for guidance.

Welcome to those who come seeking or sharing knowledge, new or old.

Welcome to all!

Welcome to Furry Mystics!

This is a group designed to allow those furries who follow the multiple different paths of mysticism, esotericism, paganism, and the occult to learn, share, and grow. Whether you are a follower of Pagan ways, Animistics or Shamanistic practices, the different Crooked Paths of Witchcraft, Wiccan practices, traditionally Esoteric and Mystical schools such as Hermeticism or Thelema, and/or other such practices, you are welcome here.

With this, it is my hope that others from different paths of life and experience may come together and share their experiences, while learning from those of others.

Rules

There are some ground rules in place for the community.

  • Don’t be a troll or abusive - This is a place of learning and growing, as such this behavior is not welcome here and will be dealt with accordingly.

  • No spamming - While I know some are eager to share loads of content, please keep the sensibilities of others in mind, as we seek a diverse range of content in this community.

  • No proselytizing - While a desire to share what you have learned is welcomed here, thinking or acting on the idea that your beliefs are superior to others is not. Such behavior is not welcomed here and is unbecoming of what this community is designed for. (This goes doubly so for those outside of who the community is intended for, thinking they have found a willing audience of converts to preach to. Our ears are closed, you are not welcome here.)

  • No advertising (unless approved by the mods) - It is understandable that many following these paths work in making their own tools and goods, which are often sold to others. That is perfectly fine overall, if the purpose of the post is to share what you have created, which also includes a link to other goods you may offer. However, posting for the explicit purpose of advertising, either your goods or another's, is not allowed, unless it is pre-approved by a mod beforehand.

  • Do not break any of the other rules associated with the Pawb.Social instance - This should go without saying, please do not violate any of the other rules in place for Pawb.Social

With that, I hope others are able to learn, share, and grow their knowledge here with others. So mote it be!
