This is a screenshot of the most beautiful karma post of 2024.
After having abused his ownership of X for two years, Brazil becomes the first country to simply shut down X.
The legally elected social democratic government of Brazil experienced a January 6 style coup attempt by anti-democratic, hard-right nationalist Bolsonaro in January 2023.
They have since fought a long legal battle to get Musk to shut down X accounts related to this coup.
Musk refused.
So they shut him down.
To save some time upgrading all U-he plugins I did:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -e
wget -q --show-progress -r -np -nd -l1 -A Mac.zip https://uhe-dl.b-cdn.net/releases/ -P dl/
for file in dl/*.zip; do unzip -j -o "$file" -d staging "*.pkg"; done
for file in staging/*.pkg; do sudo installer -pkg "$file" -target /; done
Beware, there is an ongoing spambot attack in #GitHub issues in several projects were random people suggest "the fix" is to download a random file from mediafire.com. Like this:
Just in case anyone's still stuck with the SBAT issue on the Linux systems and can't easily disable secure boot for whatever reason - boot a live Fedora image, open a terminal, run
sudo mokutil --set-sbat-policy delete
and reboot. shim should now clear the sbat policy and you're back in business. Don't allow Windows Update to run again until things are sorted.
