#1476 Re: Off-topic » [SOLVED] New kernel adoption policy in Debian » 2021-07-26 18:25:20

Isn't that a question for Debian not for Devuan?  Other than a few systemd related packages, Devuan follows Debian repos.

#1477 Re: Installation » My Chimaera install issues #1: Forced manual choice of LXQt WM » 2021-07-25 05:56:12

IIUC, Devuan is requesting feedback about issues with the packages that Devuan has forked and maintains not packages that are maintained by Debian or upstream of Debian.  Bugs on those packages should be reported upstream.  But there are times when it can be difficult to sort where the issue lies.

#1478 Re: Installation » My Chimaera install issues #1: Forced manual choice of LXQt WM » 2021-07-24 17:25:27

You are welcome to provide a patch upstream to offer the option(s) you suggest.  smile

No.

Hmmmm . . . I moved that thread from Desktop and Multimedia because it is not a support issue but this really isn't the right place either.  I think I'll try to append it to https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=2120 a little later.  But then when I went there I noticed that the image in the first post  has a similar issue.  Will check a bit later with the backend crew to see if something has changed there.

Could you check if it is a Flash thing or something else?

A browser should be able to "View Page Source" which would answer your question.

I am currently on Palemoon and this option is available.

#1482 Re: Other Issues » Amprolla behavior when bullseye released » 2021-07-19 12:38:26

Bullseye = Chimaera

Bookworm = Daedalus

That's why it is a bad idea to use "testing" in your sources.list.

#1485 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » chimaera: no more icons in xfce-panel application menu » 2021-07-13 19:35:20

You might start here.  The path to some of the Xfce icons has been changed and some redesigned and some are now eye-shattering blue.  It's being worked on.  Hopefully it can be sorted.

I know who that is and also have been acutely aware of the ethical implications of genetic manipulation since we started going down that rabbit-hole in the mid-90s.  So let's just leave it at that or move the discussion off-forum to a more suitable location.

Worse Than the Disease? Reviewing Some Possible Unintended Consequences of the mRNA Vaccines Against COVID-19

Stephanie Seneff Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, MIT, Cambridge MA, 02139, USA
Greg Nigh Naturopathic Oncology, Immersion Health, Portland, OR 97214, USA

Abstract

Operation Warp Speed brought to market in the United States two mRNA vaccines, produced by Pfizer and Moderna. Interim data suggested high efficacy for both of these vaccines, which helped legitimize Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) by the FDA. However, the exceptionally rapid movement of these vaccines through controlled trials and into mass deployment raises multiple safety concerns. In this review we first describe the technology underlying these vaccines in detail. We then review both components of and the intended biological response to these vaccines, including production of the spike protein itself, and their potential relationship to a wide range of both acute and long-term induced pathologies, such as blood disorders, neurodegenerative diseases and autoimmune diseases. Among these potential induced pathologies, we discuss the relevance of prion-protein-related amino acid sequences within the spike protein. We also present a brief review of studies supporting the potential for spike protein “shedding”, transmission of the protein from a vaccinated to an unvaccinated person, resulting in symptoms induced in the latter. We finish by addressing a common point of debate, namely, whether or not these vaccines could modify the DNA of those receiving the vaccination. While there are no studies demonstrating definitively that this is happening, we provide a plausible scenario, supported by previously established pathways for transformation and transport of genetic material, whereby injected mRNA could ultimately be incorporated into germ cell DNA for transgenerational transmission. We conclude with our recommendations regarding surveillance that will help to clarify the long-term effects of these experimental drugs and allow us to better assess the true risk/benefit ratio of these novel technologies.

There will come a time when these abominations will be the only older hardware available.  Many of us will not live long enough to see that shift but it will eventually happen . . .

Victory!  You should be able to edit your previous posts now that you've got the hang of it.  Nice to see you too.  It's been a good while since Devuan was taking it's first baby steps . . . .

#1491 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] Testing testing Chimaera on laptop » 2021-07-09 01:09:40

If you can't figure out the correct syntax for "code", you can use the buttons above the edit window.  big_smile

Hint . . . use  [ not  < . . .

This. The installer itself needs to be tested.  Devuan-specific bugs to be reported as outlined in the link posted above.

They don't have a fixed schedule.  They have a "when it's ready" schedule as does Devuan.

Good to know, also, I thought chimaera's images were still in alpha...

They are.

I probably should, but sometimes I am way too lazy for it...

That being said, I assume you just report issues that you see...? Could do that, beyond that, I don't know.

Confirmation that it works or if not what the problem is would be helpful and appreciated.

Steve's Old Computer Museum!

Early personal computers were nothing like present day computers - they had personality!
Each was different and more exciting than the previous, with new features and capabilities.
old computer This website is dedicated to the preservation and display of these vintage computer systems.
To the left you can "click" and explore old computers from the dawn of time!
For fun, view 150 old computers all at the same time to appreciate how diverse and interesting they are

Well, here is some Devuan trivia that's not so trivial.  The Devuan Board of Trustees has 3 members who are involved with computer preservation! 

Gabriele “Asbesto” Zaverio (MusIF) :: director, “Museo dell’Informatica Funzionante” computer museum

Emiliano Russo (MIAI) :: director, “Museo Interattivo di Archeologia Informatica” computer museum

Stefania Calcagno (ESOCOP) :: president, European Society for Computer Preservation

Hmm, its almost in testing right for Devuan?

We have been in Chimaera "testing" since  Beowulf was released last year..

I am curious though when Debian will release its newest version.

As stated above, Bullseye ETA is mid-July.

It does have an effect on your distro right?

Yes, we can't release Chimaera until Bullseye goes stable.  There are Chimaera installation isos available for testing if you'd like to contribute to Devuan..
