  • So let’s look at these requirements:

    • violence: not really. Vandalism and destruction of equipment aren’t violence, to my knowledge PA has not harmed or attacked anyone.

    • non combatants: they targeted weapon shipments and military equipment. While I suppose you could argue the UK military aren’t combatants as they aren’t part of the war directly, but honestly that point is entirely moot given that they didn’t target people.

    • political and ideological aims: sure, they are a political activist organization. Obviously that alone doesn’t make them terrorists.

    So, even by what Wikipedia defines as the “broadest” definition, not terrorists.

    I mean, at an absolute minimum, terrorism requires violence against people, which they did not do. They targeted planes and other military equipment. That’s not terrorism no matter how much damage they caused.





  • Sure they did something highly illegal, but anyone who thinks that illegally trying to stop a weapons shipment is terrorism is insane. If “using force to achieve a political goal” is terrorism, then nearly every country on the planet is a terrorist organization. Idk if thats like actually the UK’s definition or something but that is a ludicrous definition for terrorism.

    Terrorists use terror. Its why they are called that. Not the use of force, but specifically attempting to strike deep fear into a civilian populace. At no point was PA trying to make people fearful. They were trying to stop people from dying.



  • btop for sure. Shows current processes and their resources usage, us can terminate and kill them from the program kinda like windoes task manager, shows CPU usage/temp, and ram, storage, and network use. Only big thing it doesnt have that I use is GPU monitoring, I use nvtop for that.

    For stress testing, mprime is def best for CPU stress test. You may know it as prime95 on windows.







  • Ok, the openAI thing is not great. However…

    they advertise themselves as degoogled, but instead let you connect to Google/Microsoft/etc services

    What the fuck are you talking about? Degoogled doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be allowed to connect to Google services. It just mean that it doesn’t require Google services to function and that the default configuration shouldn’t include any Google services. If the end user actively wants to use google/microsoft/etc services then they should be able to. It seems as though you are advocating for an open source operating system to lock itself down from allowing the end user to use certain features, which is against the FOSS ethos. Remember, “free” as in “freedom.”
