Yes.
But they didn't say they can't get him back. They said they won't get him back. The Trump administration argues that the courts cannot order them to bring him back to the US as he is not on US land.
My personal guess is that he's already dead. They put him in a prison with the same people who wanted to murder him.
They could still use whatever config format they wanted - this would just be for providing their config schema. It also doesn't need to be YAML, that's just the easiest one for me to type on my phone. In fact, I think most schema validation programs rely on JSON as it is.
I also don't think programs should be required to provide it. Many core programs and kernel modules would likely take years if they ever were able to add it just to avoid the risk of mistakes causing any major issues, especially if they haven't needed an update in years. There are also many config files that use their own nonstandardized schema. A possibility is that they could be allowed to provide a CLI tool which could update the config or they could just ignore it entirely.
But creating a common schema for... well, the config schema would make it easier for systems to provide a frontend interface for updating your configs.
Seriously - Linux needs a standardized config schema spec. Something that programs should provide which an application can read and provide a frontend interface for the users to adjust config files.
Could be something like:
schema_version: 1.0
application:
name: Poo Analyzer
icon_path: /etc/pooanalyzer/images/icon.png
description: Analyzes photos of poo
schema:
- config_file:
path: /etc/pooanalyzer/conf/poo.conf
conf_type: ini
configs:
- field: poo_directory
type: dir_path
name: Poo Image Directory
description: Directory of Poo Images
icon_path: /etc/pooanalyzer/images/poo.png
- field: poo_type
type: list
name: Poo Types
description: Types of Poo to Analyze
values:
- dog
- cat
- human
- brown bear
icon_path: /etc/pooanalyzer/images/animal.png
...
Any distro could then create any frontend they'd like to manage this - the user could even install their own.
Zigbee and Z-Wave, too!
There are only two places in the world that can make that specific shade of red: Kodak Labs and the CIA.
Smh y'all will do anything to disparage Teslers.
The driver does something stupid, such as getting the car wet, and the car sometimes shuts itself down instead of catching fire.
No other car even tries to stop itself after getting wet! Can't you see how much better they are?! Have you even said thank you once? In this conversation?

If this wasn't posted by the White House account, I'd definitely believe it was posted by someone against the deportations.
It's an innocent looking woman bawling her eyes out while being arrested. Why would they think this would help their anti-immigration cause?
I mean, I actually know why. Because that's what the conservatives want. They know innocent people are being arrested and denied due process. It's not that they don't care - they actively want it.
Go look at /r/conservative on Reddit. These people are cheering Rubio on after he announced that visaholders are being deported due to something they said or protested with no evidence being offered. And I'm not joking or exaggerating.
That's not even recent. Russia has been astroturfing Reddit since at least 2015.
I remember reading /r/politics pretty often back then. All of a sudden, half the posts were from RT talking about Hillary and the DNC. Yes, what they did to Bernie was bullshit but the point was clearly to either get people to vote for Trump instead or to encourage people not to vote.
Now, like you said, it's about the war. All of a sudden, every single post about the invasion has dozens of people who are totes Ukrainian and think that Zelenskyy is a monster who refuses to end the war. Yet they either have a rather bare post/comment history or never mentioned the war before.
And, if you go to the profile for any user who identified themselves as Ukrainian years ago, it's crazy but they're still in favor of the war and protecting Ukraine.
This is what propaganda is. It's not just the government putting up posters saying you should listen to them; it's convincing you that your views are extreme and unpopular.
Haven't gotten banned yet but it's definitely gotten to the point on Reddit where you are aware that you can't discuss some topics.
Like mentioning Luigi could get you shadow-banned. Redditors acted like they were going to stand up against this and yet there's nothing. So the censorship is working - either all the comments are getting removed or people are too afraid to talk about it.
I'd argue Lemmy and other decentralized platforms are the last bastion for free speech instead of Reddit though.
Lemmy is kind of forced to be, too.
Horrific speech can be removed from the site. But if you want to see it, the admin logs are open to the public. Other instances also aren't forced to play along with the views of one instance. And each instance can choose whether they want to connect with others.
So you could create your own Christian Nationalist and White Supremacist Lemmy. But our instances don't have to federate with it. And if they choose to do so, we can leave for a different one or the users can block it entirely.
Lemmy lets anyone have a platform and, simultaneously, it doesn't force anyone to listen to you just because you have your own platform. Basically, everything that makes Lemmy a decentralized platform also makes it good for moderation without harming free speech.
There was that peak time back in the 2010s. Right after they got rid of all the worst hate communities but before they were taken over by astroturfing.
Maybe like 2014-2015ish?
Nah we're still stuck in the past.
We're just getting to 1939.
