I love it. I don’t run across these OSes or distros every day, so when I see that my mom has version “23h2” of windows 11, I know it was last updated in the second half of 2023n so it must be recently patched. Likewise, if I run across an Ubuntu 23.10 install, it’s not any older than October 2023, but the 18.04 deployment is a few years old.
Israel is trading money for arms. We allow the president to authorize those sales. Ukraine is requesting that we give them shit. Financial appropriations require congress to approve. I don’t think it’s a matter of committing war crimes. If Ukraine wants to buy arms, I think Biden can bypass congress for those sales, too.
Do you deny that there has been a massive growth in the worldwide popularity of “avocado toast” in the past few decades?
it doesnt even make sense because by definition both parties are semetic.
Oof, either you’re just grossly misinformed and performing a cringey “ackchually”, or you’re anti-semitic yourself and perpetuating anti-semitic rhetoric.
While yes, both are Semitic people, the term ‘anti-semitic’ was specifically coined by Nazi Germany to make their genocide seem like it had a basis in science. They specifically used it to refer to Jews. Nobody uses “anti-semitic” to mean all semites except hate groups and holocaust deniers who are trying to say “see, it doesn’t even mean Jews specifically! Jews are just playing the victim!”
I will assume you’re simply ignorant or misinformed, but feel free to correct me if this was actually an intentional dog-whistle.
What, in your mind, does “working hard” look like? Do you think the average lower- and middle-class adult doesn’t already work hard? Especially harder than they did 20, 40, and 60 years ago? Can you name a time when you think people worked harder than they do today to achieve the same level of comfort and happiness? Do you have to go all the way back to pre-agricultural times?
Just wanted to let you know I’ve had these books on my “to-read” stack for a few years now, and your comment got me to start reading them yesterday. They’ve already got me hooked, so thanks for the nudge!
I’d have to say Fay is my least favorite spelling of that word. Fae > Faerie > Fairy > Fey> Fairie > Fay.
Fuck yeah, borther! I love every single game in the Bioshock franchise!
And what is going on 4 ports to the right? Seems like a similar problem.
The mini-USB console port? Yeah, that could be a similar issue, but I’ve never had to use that port while a device is in active production. If I can’t access the device via IP on our management fabric, the device is probably in a broken-enough state that I can probably unplug a cable or two to attach a laptop and troubleshoot.
They don’t expire here, 3ither, but I found a 10-year-old gift card after a move and the company had switched to a new gift card system, so I had to spend an hour calling around to get my ancient gift card converted to modern store credit. It was not worth it for $20.
I know keeping a battery at 100% is worse than 80% for li-ion batteries. That is not the discussion. OP specifically suggested a constant full charge/discharge cycle as an improvement over leaving the device plugged in, and I can’t imagine that being better for the battery.
Wait, constant charge/discharge cycling is better for phone batteries than smart phone trickle charge circuitry?
ZFold5 is 7.6" when opened.
(Also, antipope is a subjective word, like heretic. From the perspective of various sects, the Pope Francis is the antipope.)
I thought the Church claimed an unbroken line of popes going back to the apostle Peter.
Wouldn’t any competitor only have a legitimate claim if they named their first pope during the brief downtime between popes? Otherwise they’re just another protestant sect.
Shit, it’d be good money for the US weapons suppliers to fund those cheap drones that generate multimillion dollar sales for them.
Yes, we can generally understand each other. When my American cousins visit my other cousins in northern Italy, they of course speak English if the Italians know English or Italian if the Americans know Italian, but when some members don’t share a common language, they often make a fair conversation with the Americans speaking Spanish and the Italians speaking Italian. They both slow down and try to simplify their vocabulary, but you can generally converse pretty fairly with context clues.
Stupid? Maybe if verifying “facts” is your sole metric. I know people who aren’t very media savvy who fall for some stupid propaganda, but they could empty my car’s engine bay and put it back together again and have it cranking the same day. Or you can drop them in any body of water in a 250km radius and they’ll know what fish can be caught there and be able to hook an edible-sized one in half an hour or less. We don’t all have the same skill sets, but we ain’t all “stupid”.
Chili dogs are really just a savory pie.
I would hate to see how that voter turnout would affect all the downballot elections.
