So, I hate Apple as much as the next nerd, but even I have to admit the new m.whatever chips are pretty slick. My wife is in design and has always fussed over Apple, so I relented and got her an Air for her last upgrade. Considering the price it’s still an impressive, sturdy little machine with bonkers battery life.
As Democrats know all too well, national trends don’t decide elections. For reasons that increasingly strain credulity, that simply is not how US elections work. Any analysis that doesn’t spend the bulk of its time on what happened in Pennsylvania and Michigan specifically is probably not worth reading. People in these states know that their votes have massive impact compared to states like California and Wyoming and so they behave differently.
Businesses around here are constantly selling old rack and standing servers on Craigslist. $50 ish on up depending on age and configuration, just have slap some drives in them. I set one up with ZoneMinder and some cheap poe IP cameras for my house. Works great and shrinks the ewaste pile a little bit.
The problem is not so much the test itself, which can be useful sometimes, but the idea that ‘intelligence’ can be fully encapsulated by a single number that is both immutable and discrete.
Remind me which states pay all the fucking taxes again?
I would guess Mozilla is making plans for what happens when Chrome is sold. Now that Firefox has proven to be an inadequate antitrust shield for Chrome, there is no longer any reason for Google to continue funding them.
What factory jobs?
They don’t have the right to deny due process either. Still happening.
implying they ever stopped
Narrator: Unfortunately, it did not.
Can’t lose what you never had.
How could anyone have been expected to know that he was going to behave in exactly the same way he did the last time he was president?
So why are we in this circular firing squad against Democrats?”
Because most of us aren’t here to be Democrats, we’re here to make the country a better place and some of the calls are coming from inside the house.
Many ISPs block some traffic on those ports for residential customers in order to force you to use a much more costly business account to be able to host your own website.
You can definitely support more pixels than 1080p, even at 165hz. My kid has a 6700 xt and I’m constantly impressed with it at 2k 165. Worst case you can run at 1080 and upscale.

Title had me worried for a sec, as soon as I saw this I knew we’ll be alright.
I personally (I’m sure others will disagree) would recommend skipping Manjaro and maybe Pop.
If you want to try Arch based pick Endeavor instead of Manjaro.
It seems like new folks have a lot of trouble with Pop to me. Out of the Ubuntu-based side I’d choose Mint over the rest.
Also don’t discount base Debian, people sneer at it because of the speed of the update cycle but the other side of that is it being the least likely to blow up on a new user.
Full disclosure: My devices are currently split between endeavor and Debian, depending on my tolerance for things breaking. I know fuck all about Bazzite/Nobara/Fedora.
People used to say Reagan and his courting of the ‘moral majority’ were going to fracture the party and cause it to destroy itself with the embrace of a massively divisive religious rhetoric. It’s wishful thinking at best.
there’s no way the GOP can recover.
I want this to be true, but it just isn’t. A third of the country will follow along with whatever mental gymnastics are required to blame democrats. Another third are just not paying enough attention and vote on pure vibes, if at all. If dems try to run an unlikable, centrist candidate with a mixed at best record it will end up a toss up. And the electorate at large will forget everything that is happening now within eight years.
Ah yes, the famously successful apple vision pro.
Oh no, it looks like Mump really did break up.
