Thanks, I see why my title search didn't work. Its not a dupe, though, its a different article on the same topic.


Same source, same discussion, almost 2 weeks ago.


The topic of this paper in Nature is covered at The Independent:

That site doesn't seem to have a way of objecting to the term ''Eskimo'' to describe Inuit peoples. In Canada, that term is now seen as pejorative and linked to colonialistic abuse.

Last Week Tonight has already ended for the year and won’t be coming back for the next few months. Plus, Netflix just bought HBO, so who knows how they’ll structure that.

This news won’t get more than a passing mention, if it gets mentioned at all. It doesn’t really matter in the grand scheme of things, it’s not even near the top of evil things done by FIFA (which were already covered in another episode).


On a FreeBSD 14.3 RPI4 box with an Internet connection but with only minor customization, upgrading was simple:

1. freebsd-update -r 15.0-RELEASE upgrade

2. freebsd-update install # (first of 2 runs, for upgrading system components)

3. shutdown -r now

4. freebsd-update install # (second of 2 runs, for userland components)

5. pkg bootstrap -f # (update pkg utility if/as needed)

6. pkg upgrade

7. profit!

Nah, they can have this slogan for free: "Yo, with Jolla YOLO!"

Anyway, I wish Jolla well.
