It's only lock-in of you've tied yourself to AWS only features. If you just use EC2 as VMs, then switching is pretty easy.

Or you can over-provision with renewables (which are cheap and getting cheaper all the time), or have utility/grid/home power storage, or balance renewable generation from different parts of the country/globe - it's alwa

They're aluminium underneath the paint - and that also melts a bit on a high speed GTO reentry, hence the likely switch to titanium grid fins in the future.

Their client and sync support is simple and works very well. Hits the sweet spot of simplicity and features. The other options are more complex. Google still doesn't have any Linux support, so it's off the table for me personally.

For trains, automation already happened - in the 80's. London's DLR and Vancouver's skytrain are examples of mostly automated, completely driverless, metro systems - built in the 80's. Afaik, the Vancouver skytrain still

If dead-end is defined as the article does: ... no "dead ends". I.e. all player actions will result in a state in which the game is still winnable - then, yes, fairly common, although not always intentionally.

Wan't thinking about multi-resolution or HiDPI - or other technical 'support' - but actual ergonomic use of multiple-monitors. It's lack of customisability in the placement of things, as well as the anachronistic global

Excellent news! I personally think unity is terrible - and it's objectively lacking in several areas, multi-monitor support particularly. The Ubuntu phone thing was a nice idea, but obviously never going to fly, so it's nice to se

This is what XMonad does by default - I hate it, but you apparently don't, so you could switch window managers to get this, if you wanted.

This seems like a good idea, but it would have high labour costs, I would think? It's also going to cross over into health and social care, therapy and support for lonely seniors almost immediately. Your call center staff are not going

It's pretty fantastic for making stock/bone broth - just chuck everything in and turn it on for 2 hrs. Same for stews: Just add all the ingredients (meat, veg, stock, herbs) then press the 'Stew' button. The slow cooking

I had heard that Trump/Republican the plan to kill NASA's climate research, was actually going to be to shunt it over to NOAA. This might be the other shoe dropping - defund NOAA (especially the satellite division) so that they c

I would suggest just removing it. Debian/Linux have a system wide update mechanism for everything - the OS & apps - and it's very strongly preferred that you just use that. The UX of asking stuff during install is also pretty

I didn't mean that fman would come back. I meant that if I remove the cronjob and update script, the next time I get an fman update via my regularly scheduled update manager, fman's .deb installer will put the cronjob and script b

Glad I looked inside the .deb file before I installed this. It does the following things: - Adds `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/fman.list - Adds `/etc/cron.daily/fman`, which does this: #!/bin/sh
