urxvt. It's very fast. I do a non-scientific benchmark of 'time find ~'. After repeats I see: urxvt=3.86s, alacritty=4.25s, kitty=7.62s, xterm=14.04s. (That xterm time feels suspect, I remember it being faster) Mostly it was

Not an armed team. There were groups seemingly working to prevent the confirmation vote by relocating Pence. The mob provided some motivation for his security detail to do so. Combined with the attempts to produce tallies from alternate sla

Modify ~/$XDG_DIRNAME_DIR/user-dirs.dirs (usually ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs). You can just point them all to $HOME if you don't want any sub-directories created.

Has DLP gotten any better? I had a rear projection DLP TV. The bulbs are a decent cost, but then your DLP 'micromirrors' start to fail and the cost isn't really worth maintaining. If that's heat related then I guess the

You can also attribute those to supply chain issues. Government fiscal policy can't be the scapegoat for issues affecting the entire world (not arguing they don't have influence).

Things aren't "proper fucked" though. Supply chains were just too slow to recover to meet our demand. Lots of things were overpriced/overvalued. The economy is going to retract as a result. Things will cycle once more, a

What were non-immunizing vaccines called before? I've seen "intramuscular virus injection", but I don't think that was ever a layman's term. Have we not always had the concept of sterilising immunity, and therefore

Doesn't address the first-past-the-post issue, nor that third parties are sometimes promoted by one of the major parties as a spoiler (questionable effectiveness). Things are just a lot more complex than the article wants to deal with.

I bought the Lenovo 10e tablet for $100 ($90+case) and it has 1920x1200 display. Trade offs: 10.1 inch display, mediatek cpu, tablet (no stand/keyboard). Not the normal price (seeing $334 now), but that was direct from Lenovo.

Doesn't make sense. We already had non-herd immunity producing vaccines for flu. That covid vaccines produce the same outcome isn't a particularly special case. It's not even that complex to understand the WHY they don't

Only to the states' interests. People were free to apply their own standards. Roe was only restrictive for people with extremely lax standards in the first place. I don't find these limitations on the state interest radical at all

I put it on a 2012 Macbook Air about a month ago. Things went pretty well. Having a reasonable amount of drive space for the Linux environment was nice for once. The keyboard backlight was non-functional, but otherwise hardware seemed to wo

The squirrels are working for the pigeons. Spies, every last one. Those pigeons, they're the masterminds. They'll sell you to the highest bidder, and you'll never see your family again. Just keep a low profile, and maybe you

Would be interesting to produce changelogs or commit messages to be edited, but it would probably be abused more than it was helpful.

For many situations, yes. In a crowd, not really. In something like a concert crowd, clubbing, etc. next to impossible.

Neither could. Critical race theory isn't prescriptive. Black Lives Matter is, but advocates for equal outcomes (primarily in policing). This isn't Marxism, but just regular justice. The only thing Marxist about them is that the r

The way you do that is via a state prosecutor. It is absurd to hand standing to every citizen without any limitation.

I have a CP1500AVR from 2013. I think it's had two battery replacements. Still going. I don't trust it to deal with aging batteries well. Just like my CP1000PFCLCD it tends to get very hot with aged batteries. My solution has been

The cards I've been watching (radeon pro wx 2100/4100, and RX 400/500 series) are just hitting 2 years ago prices on the used market. They were already used then. I'm just hoping prices settle to something acceptable by

Where is this neutral body? Half of the court was explicitly groomed to take a partisan stance. They even have the ability to choose their own cases, plus a shadow docket.

Vim is a tool by itself. There isn't the same large functionally independent body of work like a language has. I would compare it more to the BDFL for X-Chat that was forked as Hexchat. Neovim might even fill that role when the time co

Why shouldn't you? Employment is about trading labor for monetary compensation. There isn't a particular need to be aligned with owners and directors unless you are also in a leadership position.

Just explain why Republicans defend confederate statues... There is little to associate the modern Republican party with, for example, Lincoln's party. Are Republicans of today going to enforce those reparations you're waiting on?

You invite coercion and retaliation when ballots aren't secret. Corruption can and does happen in either case, but we don't need to enable other bad behaviors. Transparency and sunshine laws are not a panacea.
