The funny thing is agg. battery is a felony in Illinois which means he would lose his right to vote.

Yes, it is huge in the history of Palestine since the UN partition plan https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/bd/UN_Palestine_Partition_Versions_1947.jpg (note that the city of Jerusalem was given to neither side) I would wager that "after the fall" of Jerusalem, Bibi turned his head towards Gaza to "finish the job". Golan Heights/Lebanon will be an ongoing genocide beyond Bibi's and even our lifetimes.

Etcher itself has advertisements for https://www.balena.io/ products while your USB drive is being written.

Not all linux systems are running a desktop GUI, for example...most servers. /edit to add or expand/ I use Etcher on my laptop but I use the command line with my server in the closet...plug in the USB, go back to my laptop and do everything remotely.

Also, as a linux user/admin for 25+ years I've seen these apps come and go. Inevitably the app gains so much popularity that the dev wants some money for it... so they add advertising to the app. Then some other app comes along to replace it, rinse and repeat indefinitely. If your shell commands are POSIX-compliant, they'll last for decades or more.

which will suppress this warning

"I'm going to be annoying you until you do something about it" It is recommending that you take some sort of action, that choice is up to you as the user. In fact, the older way of disabling the warning was called advice.defaultBranchName

AFAIK git is still Linus Trovalds' project and one thing he is known for is "you dont fuckin break user space". That is acknowledged in the pull request https://github.com/git/git/pull/921

"will minimize disruption for Git's users and will include appropriate deprecation periods".

Linus is also a fuck-your-feelings kind of guy so deprecation_period == linus_date_of_death. No, I'm not implying Linus is racist/bigot, just that he feels that strongly about breaking user experience.

Git in of itself doesn’t give a shit about.

You're right...and that's why its unbelievable to me how some people are still (it has been nearly 4 years since that PR above) resistant to change this one little thing. This is just the initial branch that we're talking about here. Git doesn't care if you:

﬌ git init
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/xxxxxx/tmp/.git/

﬌ touch foo && git add foo && git commit -am "foo"
[main (root-commit) 9c74dd1] foo
 1 file changed, 0 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
 create mode 100644 foo

﬌ git branch -a            
* main

﬌ git checkout -b bar
Switched to a new branch 'bar'

﬌ git branch -d main
Deleted branch main (was 9c74dd1).

﬌ git branch -a
* bar

﬌ git log      
commit 9c74dd18d493fec727e6ce9e4ba71ed356dd970d (HEAD -> bar)

I just used the most popular/known example. Personally I haven't liked GitHub since Micro$oft bought them. I'm ol' school, 25 years in the biz so M$ really really leaves a bad aftertaste in my mouth.

I'll answer your other question in the other thread.

...but recommended to be changed every. single. time. you git init. https://lemmy.world/comment/11895670

[–] Sinthesis@lemmy.world -2 points 2 months ago (2 children)

No shit? Let me guess; you're still using git like Linus intended it to be, decentralized, by emailing each other tar.gz's

[–] Sinthesis@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

...which you get a multiline message telling you to change your ways (Linus doesn't break UX)....every time you init....weird.

$ git init
hint: Using 'master' as the name for the initial branch. This default branch name
hint: is subject to change. To configure the initial branch name to use in all
hint: of your new repositories, which will suppress this warning, call:
hint:
hint: 	git config --global init.defaultBranch <name>
hint:
hint: Names commonly chosen instead of 'master' are 'main', 'trunk' and
hint: 'development'. The just-created branch can be renamed via this command:
hint:
hint: 	git branch -m <name>
