Hm. Sway in what way? Are there other candidates or organizations which use terms like these? I didn’t see anything come up.

Thanks! I see it.

What does that mean? I can’t find any reference to it. Is it some form of political terminology which I’m maybe just unfamiliar with?

So far. I’ve seen this about it:

Appeals Court panel orders Camilla council members to be removed from office

A stated investigation is said to have found neither slept at night in the addresses they were registered to for “at least three months”.

It doesn’t go into much other detail though.

Thanks.

Could you post where you for that info from?

I’ll let you know!

My signal reliability and bandwidth will stay the same, but, distributing that between 1 download compared to 4-5 might make an improvement on it’s own, allowing the download to more often finish before it times out. But, we’ll see. Gotta get back to my PC.

If not, maybe the timeout setting in the config file will help a little.

Will report back!

Oh no, my upload must not have gone through…

It was just a screenshot of a page I found.

I think it was this:

Increase dnf Speed on Fedora

Seems like there are many pages effectively copying an article more or less exactly like this.

But, hopefully the options help me, and whoever might come across this.

Does this show up correctly?

Hello! Thanks so much for helping me with this.

It looks we’ve been able to find the following for the config file for dnf:

max_parallel_downloads in /etc/dnf/dnf.conf.

Here’s a post on how to increase it - so do the opposite, and set it to 1.

Also, I wanted to ask you about your suggestion for downloading on the phone.

What method or methods were you considering for downloading the packages on a phone? I haven’t heard of this before.

Thank you again for taking the time to write back.

I really appreciate it.

Hello.

I just wanted to leave this here, in case you wanted to look into it for something you had.

Thanks! I’ve been able to find out about this.

I didn’t see your comments before I found it though. But I really appreciate you taking the time to help me out.

Thank you very much.

Lol dang. I didn’t get a message about your comment.

But, I was able to find a different article discussing the same thing.

Thank you very much for you help with this though. This seems to be exactly what I needed.

I really appreciate it.

Thank you for your help.

I was looking for a way to decrease the amount of consecutive packages being downloaded during an update/upgrade.

With the help of some other comments I was able to find the following:

It’s referencing increasing the max parallel downloads to increase upgrade/update speed. But maybe it’ll work for what I’m looking for by lowering the value instead.

Going off your comment and someone else’s I was able to find the following:

Researchers found that people often use search engines in ways that unintentionally reinforce their existing beliefs. The study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, shows that even unbiased search engines can lead users into digital echo chambers—simply because of how people phrase their search queries.

"When people look up information online—whether on Google, ChatGPT or new AI-powered search engines—they often pick search terms that reflect what they already believe (sometimes without even realizing it),” said lead author Eugina Leung, an assistant professor at Tulane’s A. B. Freeman School of Business. “Because today’s search algorithms are designed to give you ‘the most relevant’ answers for whatever term you type, those answers can then reinforce what you thought in the first place. This makes it harder for people to discover broader perspectives.”

For example, people who believe caffeine is healthy might search “benefits of caffeine,” while skeptics might type “caffeine health risks.” Those subtle differences steered them toward drastically different search results, ultimately reinforcing their original beliefs.

The effect persisted even when participants had no intention of confirming a bias. In a few studies, fewer than 10% admitted to deliberately crafting their search to validate what they already thought, yet their search behavior still aligned closely with their beliefs.

The researchers tested several ways to encourage users to broaden their views. Simply prompting users to consider alternative perspectives or perform more searches had little effect. However, one approach worked consistently: changing the algorithm.

When search tools were programmed to return a broader range of results—regardless of how narrow the query was—people were more likely to reconsider their beliefs. In one experiment, participants who saw a balanced set of articles about caffeine health effects walked away with more moderate views and were more open to changing their behavior.

Users rated the broader results equally useful and relevant as the narrowly tailored ones. The findings suggest that search platforms could be crucial in combating polarization—if designed to do so. The researchers even found that most people were interested in using a “Search Broadly” feature—a button (conceptualized as doing the opposite of Google’s current “I’m feeling Lucky” button) that would intentionally deliver diverse perspectives on a topic.

Same as the other comment. That’s very generous of you.

Housing is pretty much the main concern for me regarding moving at this time.

Ehhmm… Would you happen to need a live in maid, assistant, gardener, groundskeeper…anything wherever you end up? Asking for a friend.

Does this also apply to the face scans they ask U.S. citizens to do when passing the Canadian border?

that nation What nation do you live in?

And are you adopting? Asking for…me. I’m asking for me. No lie.
