Yes, and same with fracking. Documentaries like Gasland have gotten some deserved criticism because there is evidence of methane and natural gas coming out of water pipes/wells way back at the turn of the century. But that doesn't

I'm not alt-right. It's my blog. I posted it on a weekend last time and thought it might get some more play early morning on a weekday. I think my points are valid. I think there is a lot of censorship going on in tech and it&#x27

Older macs could run Linux pretty well. I even had Gentoo running on an ancient PPC mac yonks ago. A few years back, I got Linux working (sorta) on a MacBook 14,3 https://battlepenguin.com/tech/linux-on-a-macbook-pro-14

Is this true in other countries? I had a friend who finished med school in Brisbane but then struggled when he came back to the US to find a residency.

ventilators are highly specialized, and they're death sentences. A lot of people early on died due to the overuse of vents. Today they're not used until needed and the recovery rates have gone up.

YES! There's a great Inside a Mind video where he does a deep dive onto Lasagna Cat. In retrospect .. Garfield wasn't that great. It wasn't groundbreaking or truly humerus. But you read the stuff over at Paws and they talk ab

Are there any good outdoor enclosures for housing a pi camera? I've been trying to something I could either mount on a tripod screw or railing clip.

.ml domains tend to disappear when they get popular, and sometimes you can't even buy them at that point. With those free DNSes, you get what you pay for. Don't use them for anything important.

Huh. I never thought about this. Some companies will ship you monitors and such, but you're right, a huge amount of cost has shifted to the worker. You now have to heat and cool your home for the entire day.

Mozilla stands for less and less of what it did back in University when they first released "Firebird" from reworking the old Netscape/Mozilla source. I hate that there are only two major web engines now.
