I see three possible reasons:
He’s dead
El Salvador and the US don’t want anyone to speak about what’s going on in the prison
Trump wants to use this as a test. If he can get away with this, he can get away with sending most anyone.
Article 25 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights
Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control.
Yes.
But they didn’t say they can’t get him back. They said they won’t get him back. The Trump administration argues that the courts cannot order them to bring him back to the US as he is not on US land.
My personal guess is that he’s already dead. They put him in a prison with the same people who wanted to murder him.
They could still use whatever config format they wanted - this would just be for providing their config schema. It also doesn’t need to be YAML, that’s just the easiest one for me to type on my phone. In fact, I think most schema validation programs rely on JSON as it is.
I also don’t think programs should be required to provide it. Many core programs and kernel modules would likely take years if they ever were able to add it just to avoid the risk of mistakes causing any major issues, especially if they haven’t needed an update in years. There are also many config files that use their own nonstandardized schema. A possibility is that they could be allowed to provide a CLI tool which could update the config or they could just ignore it entirely.
But creating a common schema for… well, the config schema would make it easier for systems to provide a frontend interface for updating your configs.
Seriously - Linux needs a standardized config schema spec. Something that programs should provide which an application can read and provide a frontend interface for the users to adjust config files.
Could be something like:
schema_version: 1.0
application:
name: Poo Analyzer
icon_path: /etc/pooanalyzer/images/icon.png
description: Analyzes photos of poo
schema:
- config_file:
path: /etc/pooanalyzer/conf/poo.conf
conf_type: ini
configs:
- field: poo_directory
type: dir_path
name: Poo Image Directory
description: Directory of Poo Images
icon_path: /etc/pooanalyzer/images/poo.png
- field: poo_type
type: list
name: Poo Types
description: Types of Poo to Analyze
values:
- dog
- cat
- human
- brown bear
icon_path: /etc/pooanalyzer/images/animal.png
...
Any distro could then create any frontend they’d like to manage this - the user could even install their own.
Zigbee and Z-Wave, too!
There are only two places in the world that can make that specific shade of red: Kodak Labs and the CIA.
If this wasn’t posted by the White House account, I’d definitely believe it was posted by someone against the deportations.
It’s an innocent looking woman bawling her eyes out while being arrested. Why would they think this would help their anti-immigration cause?
I mean, I actually know why. Because that’s what the conservatives want. They know innocent people are being arrested and denied due process. It’s not that they don’t care - they actively want it.
Go look at /r/conservative on Reddit. These people are cheering Rubio on after he announced that visaholders are being deported due to something they said or protested with no evidence being offered. And I’m not joking or exaggerating.
That’s not even recent. Russia has been astroturfing Reddit since at least 2015.
I remember reading /r/politics pretty often back then. All of a sudden, half the posts were from RT talking about Hillary and the DNC. Yes, what they did to Bernie was bullshit but the point was clearly to either get people to vote for Trump instead or to encourage people not to vote.
Now, like you said, it’s about the war. All of a sudden, every single post about the invasion has dozens of people who are totes Ukrainian and think that Zelenskyy is a monster who refuses to end the war. Yet they either have a rather bare post/comment history or never mentioned the war before.
And, if you go to the profile for any user who identified themselves as Ukrainian years ago, it’s crazy but they’re still in favor of the war and protecting Ukraine.
This is what propaganda is. It’s not just the government putting up posters saying you should listen to them; it’s convincing you that your views are extreme and unpopular.
Haven’t gotten banned yet but it’s definitely gotten to the point on Reddit where you are aware that you can’t discuss some topics.
Like mentioning Luigi could get you shadow-banned. Redditors acted like they were going to stand up against this and yet there’s nothing. So the censorship is working - either all the comments are getting removed or people are too afraid to talk about it.
I’d argue Lemmy and other decentralized platforms are the last bastion for free speech instead of Reddit though.
Lemmy is kind of forced to be, too.
Horrific speech can be removed from the site. But if you want to see it, the admin logs are open to the public. Other instances also aren’t forced to play along with the views of one instance. And each instance can choose whether they want to connect with others.
So you could create your own Christian Nationalist and White Supremacist Lemmy. But our instances don’t have to federate with it. And if they choose to do so, we can leave for a different one or the users can block it entirely.
Lemmy lets anyone have a platform and, simultaneously, it doesn’t force anyone to listen to you just because you have your own platform. Basically, everything that makes Lemmy a decentralized platform also makes it good for moderation without harming free speech.
There was that peak time back in the 2010s. Right after they got rid of all the worst hate communities but before they were taken over by astroturfing.
Maybe like 2014-2015ish?
They’ll sometimes have issues but I haven’t ever heard of an actual attack against any of them.
You’ll need a Usenet server but at least two is preferable - one following DMCA and one following NTD.
Then you’ll need indexers. There’s no limit on these that you’ll want. Each will have different content and you can use some services to track how often you actually get good results from them or how much overlap there is.
Then get a download client. I like SABNZBd.
After that, you can automate it. Sonarr is gold standard for TV shows and Radarr for movies. Lidarr exists for music but it’s pretty hard to automate good music since there are so many different versions - radio edits, DJ, live, samples, remixes, etc.
Best part about Usenet is that it’s much easier to get what you want. With Torrents, you’re relying on seeders for each file you’re downloading. These mostly end up being newer media and usually the shittiest quality someone can produce (looking at you, YIFY).
With Usenet, it’s all coming from the servers. If it’s been uploaded, it’s almost always still there and you can usually download it as fast as your Internet connection allows. Sometimes you’ll find missing parts, almost always due to either DMCA/NTD requests or because the uploads were old and not downloaded recently enough. The former is the reason I recommend at least two servers. However, you’ll still usually have multiple other versions of that file uploaded elsewhere. If you’re using Sonarr/Radarr, they will mark it as a failed download and try another matching item instead.
Yeah something like that should be doable but it would require that programs provide a schema and the OS to have a way for the programs to “announce” themselves so it can be aware of the configuration files and the schema.
I’m sure some project could create a GUI that could cover the most common applications, though.
It’s always fun trying to set up a program, learning the config syntax, running it, having it fail, and then spending an hour debugging before you realize it never even read your config changes because you were supposed to use one of the other half dozen conf files it has spread all across your drive. Is it under /etc/, /usr/local/etc/, /opt/, or your home directory?
And, in the meantime, you’ll only destroy your OS maybe a few dozen times!
There are existing standards. The issue is that there are too many different standards and some programs will choose to make their conf files half standardized, half unique.
There’s INI, YAML, JSON, XML, TOML, etc.
Honestly, the Linux team needs to just choose one of these formats, declare it the gold standard, and slowly migrate the config files for most core components over to it. By declaring a standard, you’ll eventually get the developers of most major third-party tools and components to eventually migrate.
No - the US and Europe developed two different methods for handling salmonella.
Starting in the 1970s, the US chose to wash the eggs. The upside is that it eliminates virtually all risk. The downside is that it requires refrigeration throughout the entire supply line, but since they are refrigerated, US eggs last a lot longer; unrefrigerated eggs last about three weeks while refrigerated eggs last about 50 days.
Large portions of Europe didn’t have the infrastructure to support this so the regulators instead chose to vaccinate the chickens. The upside is that no extra steps are required and no extra equipment like refrigerated trucks. The downside is that they don’t last as long.
Both methods work about equally well and are both considered acceptable.

Everyone knows you just keep guessing until you get it right.
Don’t worry about how janky or slow it makes the UI. That’s basically a requirement for the modern browser.
I mean, Washington wanted 2 terms to be the norm.
He didn’t, that’s just a whitewashed version we tell ourselves.
He just didn’t want the President to be viewed as a monarch or a lifetime appointment. He turned down a third term because he feared he would die in office and the public would believe that’s the norm.
He didn’t go to Heaven but he did go to a sort-of limbo - Sheol/Hades. Kind of like a shoe closet but for souls.
