It's simply a fork of LineageOS designed to run microG out of the box, the builds are there for ease of use. microG is still a separate project from LineageOS. They are "LineageOS [builds meant] for [use with] microG".

Maybe salary negotiations is a better time to bring it up. "100K Class" salary request, with the actual figure being 33%~ higher.

Disdain for the use of "neger" in Norway was actually prompted largely by internal groups, not "American imperialism". The historical context around how the word developed does not put it in the best light. It's ant

It would have been nice if GP had actually noted the word, and no they do not need to be 80 years old to have possibly meant "neger", it depends I guess on their intentions... Edit: Frankly I am not sure why they would have meant

It seems "neger" was still debatable according to this reddit thread from 2012 https://www.reddit.com/r/Norway/comments/ylcpw/what_do_i_cal... and Marrianne Gullstead paper seemed to indicate i

Looking into it, it does not look like this is solely influenced by American "cultural colonialism". Objections to the use have also been from black people who are not from the US. There may be some level of cultural ignorance reg

What benefit do you believe this is going to bring SSDs? They are full of DRAM buffers and utilize multiple simultaneous NAND channels to mask latency inherent to the tech. It seems a realtime processor would bring little to the table. Edit

There is obviously nuance, but if the word sounds like a slur, and is used generally to describe people of a certain race, then the offended can certainly express their offense, and the culture should consider the offended person's pos

I am guessing the word here is "neger", and is more akin to the US use of the word "negro" than the slur "Ni er"[looks like HN censors even my censored version of the slur to "Nier"]. Even in the US

Agreed. This just looks like clickbait.

Are you suggesting I am not taking it seriously, while also saying "Sure I can" when it comes to ignoring nuclear waste storage issues? Waste amounts are "tiny", and "bury it in a hole somewhere", ignoring time

Your neighbors and county can certainly challenge the use of "your" land. I think you're assuming that ownership means you can "do whatever the hell you want". Ordinances, zoning, right of way, eminent domain, and f

I don't think anyone would say that a lot of industrial processes aren't extremely toxic and dangerous. The question was asked due to the downplaying of the dangers of nuclear waste. Just because something like dimethylmercury is

He did kind of suggest that it'd be okay to just dump it in the ocean, which would be a terrible idea.

Solar does not have the special handling and proliferation issues that nuclear waste does. Disposing of or recycling broken solar panels is significantly less complicated than spent nuclear fuel and waste byproducts. Recycling and disposal

France's program is effectively government run, and heavily in debt. I cannot find indication that reprocessing is profitable in the short term, but obviously it has advantages in the long term by reducing waste. That said it does not

You're underplaying the danger and overplaying the value. Who exactly is investing in this "green gold"? If it's so valuable why does no one actually want it, and why is the DoE stuck with half a trillion liability?

Ransomware extortion artists have already been proven to be hit or miss when it comes to following through on what they promised. The whole concern about releasing this data to the internet is that it'd end up in the hands of bad actor

Even worse, because we can totally trust data can't be copied or released once an extortionist ransom is paid to malevolent hackers. I am sure this ransomware gang is on the up and up and operating in a good faith to honor the agreemen

The solution is to ensure the worker's employment status is within the legal definition as it's defined. Gig economy could usher in a new era of worker flexibility, but it could also usher in a new era of worker exploitation. The

Then we should advocate for government footing the bill, either UBI or subsidized minimum wage. Someone is paying the cost in the end, and probably shouldn't end up on the small business owner, and definitely shouldn't end up on t

This is incredibly simplistic and reductionist thinking with regards to the development of society. It comes from a brutal, cold and careless place. The goal of societies should be to evolve beyond the brutality of nature, not regress backw

Desperation existed before the pandemic. There is always someone willing to lower the bar, that doesn't mean it's a good thing. Edit: If the "best option" isn't a good option then there is a problem.

Operations and Support seems to be the smallest chunk of that at 2.3 billion. I am not sure if that's the pool of money drivers are paid out of. It would be better to see the actual cost paid to drivers instead of assuming "a big
