So what are the atime
settings in a Linux distribution like Ubuntu?

Thank you! didn’t know about that command.
Edit: explicitly installing 10.1 with
sudo apt install wine-staging=10.1~focal-1 wine-staging-amd64=10.1~focal-1 wine-staging-i386:i386=10.1~focal-1 winehq-staging=10.1~focal-1
worked.
Thank you for the help!
But I can’t remove wine-staging, at least not via
apt
:$ sudo apt remove wine-staging-i386 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these. The following packages have unmet dependencies. wine-staging : Depends: wine-staging-i386 (= 10.2~focal-2) Depends: wine-staging-amd64 (= 10.2~focal-2) but 10.2~focal-1 is to be installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
So no go there.
--fix-broken
doesn’t work either:$ sudo apt --fix-broken install Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Correcting dependencies...

Any idea on how to remove Wine manually, bypassing
apt
?
The problem is that the whole
apt
system seems to be broken. It doesn’t let me install other packages, and I can’t even uninstall wine. So I wonder if any fixes from wine will work. It looks like this needs the user’s manual intervention.$ sudo apt upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these. The following packages have unmet dependencies. wine-staging : Depends: wine-staging-amd64 (= 10.2~focal-2) but 10.2~focal-1 is installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

but
sudo apt --fix-broken install
does not solve anything…

The point in this case is that what’s legal is unethical, and what’s ethical is illegal.

As human beings, it’s always important to make the ethical choice.

In my opinion what you wrote in your comment is just perfect, you’re a citizen simply expressing an honest concern, without lying – not all people are tech-savvy. It also makes it clear that it’s a letter from a real person.
But that’s only my point of view, and maybe I haven’t thought enough steps ahead. Let’s see what other people suggest and why.

Maybe it is pointless, maybe it is a bad idea. Maybe not. It’s difficult to predict what this kind of small-scale actions will have on the big picture and future development. No matter what you choose or not choose to do, it’s always a gamble. My way of thinking is that it’s good if people say, through this kind of gestures, “I’m vigilant, I won’t allow just anything to be done to me. There’s a line that shouldn’t be crossed”.
Of course you’re right about supporting and choosing alternative browsers, and similar initiatives. There are many initiatives on that front as well. I’ve never used Chrome, to be honest; always Firefox. But now I’ve even uninstalled the Chromium that came pre-installed on my (Ubuntu) machines. Besides that I ditched gmail years ago, and I’ve also decided to flatly refuse to use Google tools (Google docs and whatnot) with collaborators, as a matter of principle. If that means I’m cut out of projects, so be it.
Regarding WEI, I see your point, but I see dangers in “acknowledging” too much. If you read the “explainer” by the Google engineers, or in general their replies to comments and criticisms, you see that they constantly use deceiving, manipulative, and evasive language. As an example, the “explainer” says a lot “the user needs this”, “the user desires that”, but when you unfold the real meaning of the sentences it’s clear it isn’t something done for the user.
This creates a need for human users to prove to websites that they’re human
Note the “need for human users”, but the sentence actually means “websites need that users prove…”. This is just an example. The whole explainer is written in such a deceiving manner.
The replies to criticisms are all evasive. They don’t reply the actual questions or issues, they start off a tangent and spout a lot of blah blah with “benefit”, “user”, and other soothing words – but the actual question or issue never gets addressed. (Well, if this isn’t done on purpose, then it means they are mentally impaired, with sub-normal comprehension skills).
I fuc*ing hate this kind of deceiving, politician talk – which is a red flag that they’re up to no good – and I know from personal experience that as soon as you “acknowledge” something, they’ll drag your into their circular, empty blabber while they do what they please.
More generally, I think we should do something against the current ad-based society and economy. So NO to WEI for me.
stravanasu@lemmy.cato Technology@beehaw.org•ChatGPT broke the Turing test — the race is on for new ways to assess AIEnglish7·2 years agoAgree (you made me think of the famous face on Mars). I mean that more as a joke. Also there’s no clear threshold or divide on one side of which we can speak of “human intelligence”. There’s a whole range from impairing disabilities to Einstein and Euler – if it really makes sense to use a linear 1D scale, which very probably doesn’t.

Cheers! Apparently Ubuntu uses the
relatime
setting.
