Egypt situation is different and I wouldn’t wanna talk about it here. Speaking about sexual harassments, I don’t imply it’s absence you can search online if you want to confirm that, 2022 was the worst year in that matter it showed an increased at the rates of sexual harassment in public places, but people’s and government efforts to fights it back has showed it’s results, I can’t speak for everyone ofc, so you have to take precautions. In your other comment you mentioned honor killing yeah it was a matter back then when half of Iraq didn’t have electricity, mainly at the rural parts of Iraq. Don’t get me wrong, women and human rights here in general are still at a set back from the rest of the world but we are improving bit by bit hoping to make it even better here.

For 100 years women was treated as the inferior gender not just in Iraq but all around the Arabian Gulf area due to religious/customary reasons. Iraq was one of the first countries to allow women to drive, it was and will be the most secular middle eastern country. After the American invasion on Iraq women’s rights was at decline because of the war, and it’s now even better than ever. So they feel pretty much normal I guess, they even sometimes have more freedom than us men here.

Lots of tourists come around here, mainly to The marshes, the city of Babylon and Ur, yearly from the month of November to April where the temperature rates are at it’s modest. I recommend you coming here, it’s not that scary really from the tourists perspective.

There are like 20 or even more government parties, I stopped counting them really, they all fight for who will be in charge of different sections of the government each one of them having no chance of agreement with each other, which results in a a political conflict the last 14 years at the end of every election cycle on which party is the prime minister nominated from, in the end it comes down to the nomination of an acceptable figure among these parties. And it doesn’t take long until each one of them starts digging holes in the way of that figure for the sake of benefits, either Money, investment contracts، positions amongst the authority.

It really doesn’t effect us that much now with them recently settling down to form an electoral alliance in the last 2 years. It has become more safe the last 6-8 years so much to hold sports events "recently The Arabian Gulf Cup Which was won by Iraq btw. Iraq has come along way and now somewhat on par with its neighboring countries.

I didn’t took it that way, and i know he didn’t mean something against my country either. It’s more of a general idea rather than thinking of something. I don’t think of the US that much but I do have a general idea about it, current political situation, and the states.

Yes, born raised and probably gonna die here. I live in southern region of Iraq, specifically the city of Nasiryah. Generally everything are still lacking behind due to years of war but it’s getting better bit by bit with some hiccups because of the Iranian government influence, inflation, corruption.

should you think about the planet earth too?

Thanks really, I appreciate your interest. I will do when the chance come.

Most of us here think that life here is much better now, even with all the economic obstacles and challenges.

Not really much, the government only depends on oil for income with little to none effort of changing that direction. Electricity demand is higher than ever with the service declining each and every year.

It’s really funny if you think about it, what America identified as terrorists and imprisoned at Abu Ghraib prison are now politics controlling Iraq’s economy each one with his own militia to protect him from the law. We now only looking for the future with people tending to forget what happened 20 years ago in the hope that things get better.

Well nothing much since 2014 except it become more safe with the security situation becoming more stable that tourists are being attracted to here. Corruption still a big issue and we see more and more of these cases most of them don’t get resolved unfortunately because of the authorities negligence. Lack of jobs made the people more mad with the last 4 years, protests became more often demanding of jobs in the government sectors. Water drought and the climate change started to effect our lives with no government efforts to reduce it’s impact. Generally Iraq is better now people are happier than ever.

You could break the security pin or use a small flat-head screwdriver.

I didn’t have a Torx screwdriver, so I broke the pin and used a regular polydrive, disconnected the red wire, and rolled tape around the exposed end.

It did let me disable it on the Xbox Accessories app back on Windows.  Then it stopped working, and I couldn’t open it again because it thought I had an old version of Windows for some reason. Now on Linux, it is still working aggressively to the point that the controller sometimes disconnects or falls off my hand.

Disabling it in steam input doesn’t disable it in Lutris. I have already thought about disconnecting the motors as an alternative method after making sure there’s nothing in the software that can do that, as in Windows.

Also, thanks for the info on the screwdriver.

Engage in something else, something fun maybe. A good movie could fix a lot of things, if that doesn’t help time is the cure for everything.

sleep

oh, thanks.

Docker is resource intensive because of wsl virtualization. I can run jellyfin all day long and it doesn’t take more than 300 mb of Ram. Also I game alot, it’s just inconvenient to manually pause Docker containers everytime I launch a game.

The prolem is, I don’t want to store them on my phone viewing a large collection of photos and videos (approximately70gb), is what I’m trying to do. Jellyfin is doing it but the client isn’t helping at all.
