The correct spelling for the plural form is 'reais' (the 'l' from the singular form 'real' becomes an 'i').

I think I've never heard anybody pronounce 'reais' without the sound of s at the end, are you sure she doesn't say it? It's probably something like hey-eyes (hey-eye-shh for cariocas)

Seems like you should take a look at https://deb.sury.org/

PHP 8.0's release wasn't long ago enough to fit into the stable release, bullseye was too close to the initial freeze period when that happened.

I also noticed that and couldn't find any name for this phenomenon, seems like there are somethings on the internet about "Sensory Incorporation in Dreams" but I failed to find anything related to this specific behavior of dreaming with something that led to the noise.

I believe the whole reproducible-builds.org project started at Debian [0], the Core Team is still all made of Debian Developers, more information at: https://reproducible-builds.org/

Their documentation has some really good pointers at common issues and how to solve them: https://reproducible-builds.org/docs/

And the diffoscope tool is very useful for debugging.

[0] I believe other projects had similar things going on but the Debian one became the main to serve as an umbrella.

Sid, aka the kid who broke toys

this proved to be very effective in my case as well, a gnu\linux distribution + ublock origin.

Thanks for working on it, I'll see if I can get it packaged to Debian during the holidays.

I wonder if companies should be forbidden of advertising discounts at all, maybe they should just list what is the price and the customers can look out the price history and compare with competitors themselves (which is the defence mechanism for the current situation).

I really don't like the idea of living in a society where companies I buy things from are trying to scam me by using Pavlov-esque techniques of using fake discounts to get my attention, especially because that works. Really, is that the society we want to have?

I would like to hear counter arguments to this.

There are some good points I can see:

* Knowing which version of the installer you are using, so you know which versions of what are gonna be installed by default, sometimes the installer itself will contain bugfixes (but not always).

* Knowing what is the minimum patchset applied to a system. You can check the etc release files and get a summary of the updates applied, eg.: if you see release 10.2 you will know that at least all of the patches up until 10.2 were applied. This one is very useful if you are debugging a system and want to get an overall idea of how up-to-date it is, if you are debugging a system that it's behind the latest updates, you should always consider that as a possible cause, knowing which is the point release allows you to reduce the diff/bugs you will be looking at.

Debian has been doing a stable release every two years since 14 years now. If you want the equivalent of a non-LTS Ubuntu release, you should use Debian Testing (besides the naming, it's pretty stable)

Well, in this case people should have been using Debian Testing instead of Stable.

But yeah it's often that people don't understand what's Debian stable and its trade offs compared to Testing and end up unhappy with it or switching to Ubuntu (which is ~very~ similar to Debian Testing).

You can use the gnome utilities for this kind of stuff, I use gnome's network manager to select wifi and gnome-settings with i3-gnome for other tweaks. https://github.com/i3-gnome/i3-gnome

For screen management I use arandr.

Is there any cost that an ISP company has related to the amount of data transferred? All the costs that I'm aware of are related to the bandwidth, not the total transmitted data (eg.: IX connections and such).

The ISP companies want to do this because they get more money, that's simple, and usually followed by awful things like exemption for certain services.

In Brazilian Facebook IT groups it's already common to see people from Angola using the group to google things, because Facebook usage is out of the data cap. Some Brazilians even created groups specialized in this "facebook googling" for Angolans.

It makes me sad knowing how far ISPs are being able to push such bad things.

- edit to add more info about the current state in Brazil: Mobile internet plans all have data cap and most have exemption on WhatsApp and Facebook, while house data plans are forbidden to do so by Brazil's telecom regulator (ANATEL), unfortunately they are lobbying pretty hard to change that.

I can't understand how UX designers come up with the idea that putting stuff on the top of the screen* is a good thing, and even keep reiterating through that. That's an honest question, anybody knows what's the motivation behind that?

* or, places that are hard to reach for most users

> Esperanto is easier to learn than any naturally evolved language. Its benefits are clear...

Both of these statements are not true, arguable at minimum.

Sorry for not explaining properly but if you do say something like this, is very likely that you are aware of the discussions around it and knows that this is very far from consensus in the linguistics field.

I would like to see a post like this but for Python. This one is for gdb.

why is it becoming a trend to make idiot analogies that are clearly useless as an argument (because they aren't the same thing) here in hackernews?!

Yes, you get the point, now you just need to enforce that because this is actually being forced by a ton of websites requiring chrome to work.

Yeah, and one of these "choices" implies not having any more choice at all

there are only 14 jokes on it [https://github.com/AlexLakatos/computer-puns/blob/master/pun...]

and the font and background change between them does not goes very smooth.

"The Librem 5 is an open network phone, not locked to any particular network.

We aim to support 3G and 4G for the most common international frequency bands and carriers, with an interchangeable module. Exact specifications will follow as we are evaluating the data+voice modems that will be used.

We expect it to work on 3G and 4G networks, and hope for it to also work for GSM, UMTS, or LTE-based network services."

I think we all know what this was about now:

Facebook Network Breach Impacts Up to 50M Users https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18094823

I got logged out before opening any of these urls, so it's definitely not triggered by the post (at least not directly).

I would put Debian Testing on that list. Although it's called "testing", it's at least as much stable as Arch and very suitable for the desktop user, Debian's "edge" release is unstable (codename sid).

could you please give some sort of source? i could not find anything online

Github being aquired by MS could be a thing if Gitlab was not doing this transition before that. Some of the jobs listing for Gitlab were specifying GCP knowledge because they were migrating from Azure (and this was written there).

Ok, so i didn't know Ted Nelson, from his wikipedia page: "Theodor Holm "Ted" Nelson (born June 17, 1937) is an American pioneer of information technology, philosopher, and sociologist. He coined the terms hypertext and hypermedia in 1963 and published them in 1965."

I'm impressed.

wait, hashing relies on a seed?! isn't that a salt/pepper?

to be "deterministic for the lifetime of the program" sounds like a pepper is being applied, not that the hash algorithm is different.

I was really sad to see Debian omitted from that list, they patched it too but were described as "other Linux distros" :(
