I prefer the didn't make it theory. "Damnit honey I've shat my pants on that landing 4 times now. I'm putting in a shitter and IDGAF what anyone says."

What message? Revolution to give the power back to the people? Yeah that's not great, but it has happened a few times with positive results. That's what the history book writers tell me.
Which songs are you talking about?
The problematic thing with Pantera is that the lead singer said some ignorant racist shit in 2016 "Metal musicians have condemned Pantera frontman Philip Anselmo after he was filmed last week giving a Nazi salute and shouting 'white power'." https://www.theguardian.com/music/2016/feb/01/metal-community-condemns-racism-phil-anselmo-nazi-salute-white-power
He tried to pass it off as a stupid joke about white wine. He's since apologized https://loudwire.com/philip-anselmo-video-apology-offensive-gesture-exclamation/. People vouched for him.
But it's kind of a pattern at this point https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phil_Anselmo
So yeah the lead singer is probably a racist. Nobody that listened to them in the 90s knew that. None of their songs are racist AFAIK.
But yeah the lead singer is probably a shithead offstage. It's like Rodger Waters. Pink Floyd was amazing. He's dead wrong on a few things and a complete asshole about it. Two goundbreaking (in totally different ways) bands. Two shithead lead singers.
I know "separate the art from the artist" is a cop out, but people change. Maybe they are worse people than the ones that made the songs you love 30-60 years ago. Maybe they were secret assholes the whole time. I like the music.
My biggest problem is that battery life on my laptop was awful. I tried a few distros and they were all drawing 17-20W from battery doing absolutely nothing. Which means 4-5 hour battery life on an 90Wh battery. In Windows it gets ~10 hours.
I screwed around with it several nights in a row, but nothing really worked.
I'll run Linux on servers, workstations, and containers; but never again on a laptop unless it's been tuned by someone else.
He's an old white dude with millions of dollars. He will go to "Club Fed" or more likely some kind of house arrest or probation. Honestly you don't want him in a real badass prison because that makes him a martyr. If he's just convicted and ignored that's a worse punishment as he'll slide into obscurity.
Up to date post. https://old.lemmy.world/post/2923697
Doesn't give much on who and why, more on what/how along with dispelling some myths.
Whoever is doing it is very quickly walking through a list of expensive queries to use in their DDoS attacks. Lemmy.world is playing whack-a-mole instead of proactively rate limiting/mitigating expensive queries. It may be that all their time is spent diagnosing and fixing with none left for proactive fixes.
The fact that the attacks are evolving and always hitting expensive queries implies that it's a moderately skilled person/group familiar with the lemmy codebase.
You can speculate on motives as well as I can.
The net effect will be a more robust server and hopefully that code/knowledge is disseminated to other instances.
Not just useless, adding to the problem.
Which is hilariously why they aren't doing LLMs and may miss out on the wave of AI. They need to train models to tow the party line. The existing ones tell the truth too much. https://georgetownsecuritystudiesreview.org/2023/03/03/from-chatgpt-to-chat-ccp-the-future-of-generative-ai-models-in-china/
It means you have to subscribe to alt-right shitheads to dunk on their dumbass tweets. If you don't subscribe and increase their ranking while getting more dumb shit in your feed, you can't attack their dumbass ideas. More echo chamber for nazis.
For a second I thought it was setup with the bow at the tail. I see now that's a motor. I'm so relieved they didn't waste their money.
On CHRISTMAS FUCKING EVE! He has like 10 kids. He started a fire drill for employees on Christmas Eve, they have families too. What a cartoonishly villainous thing to do.
