    Alt text: In the 60s, Marvin Minsky assigned a couple of undergrads to spend the summer programming a computer to use a camera to identify objects in a scene. He figured they'd have the problem solved by the end of the summer. Half a century later, we're still working on it.

    Edit: seems I'm the third person to comment this! :')

  • Ubuntu 20.04, and doesn't work on other Ubuntu versions? Sounds like it's compiled against old libraries.

    If you want to try something more advanced, you might be able to get it to work in Nix or Flatpak. Both are ways to use the exact software libraries with an application. Both would be quite steep leaning to do! Even docker might solve the problem; still not an easy solution though, and might be harder to get hardware features working.

  • I got the impression Mint isn't best for KDE. For the reasons you mentioned, I guess, because it's not been set up with all those options right for KDE.

    I'm also on Mint, and happy to stick with it for some time, but sometimes I've wondered about going back to OpenSUSE, or even trying KDE's own distro. But by then I start thinking about Nix and Guix also, as well as old faithful Arch. Then it's too much choice and I remember how nicely Mint works for me and the family!

  • Why do some people say "I wouldn't want a government to dictate what I eat"? This would mean they'd be against food safety regulations, would it not? Context was the idea of a government banning meat

  • England too, and I think many cultures world over, actually.

    But in the UK we had a scandal some years ago because retailers sold 'beef' that was actually part horse. So it was misleading customers into eating a meat they'd find objectionable.

  • Food regulations are (mostly) about restricting food producers in ways that I already want/approve. Food safety, so I know there isn't mercury in my baby's formula.

    It's necessary especially because companies want their profits, more than they want to produce good food.

    "Government dictating what I can eat" is restricting me about my own body, in ways perhaps I disagree with.

  • Huh, interesting. I'll bear that in mind - I don't like the idea of a system clock error causing an old file to overwrite a new one!
