1 & 2 really depend on what hardware you have. But if you get 1 & 2 today from Ubuntu, I'm willing to bet that you'll get exactly that from Debian as well. 3 hasn't been a thing for a few years now. `Xorg.conf` techni

So, someone will probably correct me further but: You're still using (mostly the same) plain old LaTeX 2e with pdftex, xetex, and luatex (pdflatex, xelatex, and lualatex). Those are just 3 different engines for Knuth's original te

I mean, Netscape did implode, and Microsoft was anti-competitive, but... IE4 introduced DHTML, i.e., the paradigm that the entire HTML document is on the DOM and you can modify it with JavaScript (and style it with CSS, which is also on the

You're obviously right that the risk scales with size, but I'm still suspicious of pressure cookers. Yeah, it won't destroy the house, but I could still be seriously injured by it if the pressure release valve was clogged and

Jaco Pastorius famously played a Fender Jazz Bass from which he removed the frets with a butter knife, then sanded down and finished with marine epoxy. Then it got broken so he had it restored and kept playing it. Many touring or pub musici

No, you don't need a consent form. The GDPR does not require consent. For example, you don't need consent to store server logs with IP addresses if all they're used is for security and auditing. You don't need consent to

I mean, you're not wrong, but note that in 2023, Millennials and "25-to-39-year-olds" are one and the same. That is, I agree that this is not the best comparison, but the age range isn't arbitrary.
