But who is supposed to trust whom?

This is the plot of The Prestige, and to some extent of the survival horror game Soma.

afaik it was confirmed to be black and blue

I do believe it actually was black and blue, but I find it very hard to believe that anyone would perceive the way it is presented in this picture, with that lighting and level of overexposure, as black and blue.

Even looking at the RGB values of individual pixels, they are distinctly brown/gold-ish and a pastellish faded out purple.

I don't see who WSL is for. People in really locked-down corporate environments?

That's me pretty much. Locked down low spec Windows 10 laptop that would probably suffocate under the weight of a full VM anyway, so I'm happy to have access to a proper Linux shell with a nice-ish terminal that's a lot less clunky than "git bash", MingW etc.

I use it for ad hoc scripting and things like interacting with webservices (curl), massaging text files with tools like jq, sed, awk and to use Azure and AWS cli tools to interact with cloud infrastructure.

They've already taken Voronezh as well, some 500km from Moscow and have been reported to be advancing through the Lipetsk province, 350km south of Moscow.

There's no real "benefit" to Ukraine in this, is there?

Well, it appears that some of the baddies will be killing off each other, saving Ukraine the trouble.

Technically, Lemmy could go the same way. Even though it's an free software project, @ljdawson doesn't own the Lemmy trademark. I think it would be prudent to call it "Sync for Lemmy".

Also, the name change from "Reddit Sync" to "Sync for Reddit" happened long enough ago that people are probably more familiar with the new name,

This is such a terrible moralizing take ...

It didn't get the same attention because it had already happened, it was terrible, and nobody said otherwise, but there was no mystery or suspense about those peoples' fates. There was no ongoing story.

The Titan story is in the same vein as when workers get trapped in a mine for weeks, or like those children in a cave in Thailand. They weren't billionaires, yet the whole world still rallied behind them.

Also, to the columnist lady: you work for The fucking Guardian, if you felt that the migrant shipwreck story deserved more attention, why didn't you write about it then? I guess selling Western guilt gets more clicks huh?

For such things, I have a script that creates a brand new temporary Firefox profile and deletes it immediately after closing the browser.
