> Lula went to jail because when Bolsonaro was in charge they made up a case about him accepting beachfront property.

Lula went to jail before Bolsonaro came into power and got released while he was president. It's a well remembered case in Latin America and it's easy to correct you on that.

Confusion comes from Linux being used as a replacement term for any distro

Hi, I like it! 2 things I noticed:

1) Aren't "Modernism" and "Modernismo" the same thing? I'm a Spanish speaker and from my POV they are

2) Selected "Naïve Art" style and it's broken (images not loading). Probably something to do with the diaeresis

Ubuntu Desktop has always been amongst the most consuming distros due to their reliance on GNOME

Even during the time when they didn't and it used Unity, it still was "bloated" in a way

Interesting. Where do I run that?

My only concern with Codex is that it's not possible to delete tasks.

This is a privacy and security risk. Your code diffs and prompts are there (seemingly) forever. Best you can do is "archive" them, which is a fancy word for "put it somewhere else so it doesn't clutter the main page".

But since then the other countries learned that the US government could weaponize their USD holdings if they don't align. Central banks started accumulating gold to counter this.

Also, debt market is not the same as it was 5 years ago, Japan now has inflation (and they hold the biggest bag of US debt).

To add to this, USD lost 10% of its value this 2025 according to the DXY index. To be fair, it pretty much went to what it was worth before 2022, but the Fed has to be careful anyway.

Many things happened since 2020. It's almost 2026.

It's fair to be worried about depending on LLM. But I find the dependance on things like AWS or Azure more problematic, if we are talking about centralized and proprietary

This is why I like Arch's Pacman a lot, and the reason why I avoid Debian derivatives.

That `totallysafescript.sh` could at least be inside of the package manager scope. Most of the times someone already did it, and published it to AUR.

IMO the reason why there are so many people running random scripts in Ubuntu/Debian is due to how more difficult/inconvenient it is to get a dpkg .deb when compared to a PKGBUILD file. Same for MacOS, in which you have to either rely on Homebrew wizardry or just running the script

This looks interesting, although I'm curious on how it handles binary data, since that page is blank in their documentation.
