FWIW, Linux is not the only OS looking into dropping 32bit. FreeBSD is dumping 32 bit: https://www.osnews.com/story/138578/freebsd-15-16-to-end-sup... OpenBSD has this quote: >...most i386 hardware, only easy a

Not all systems have cpulimit. I know NetBSD does not have it, there are people who do not live only on Linux. I need something 100% portable between systems, what I do meets that requirement :)

I agree, and we have at least 3.5 more years left for this. Plus I believe foreign visitors to the US will continue to decrease as Trump doubles down on this crazy policies. The funny thing is, except for maybe NYC, most tourists tend to g

Last I heard from weather people, cat 6 is not really needed, wonder if that changed recently. With NOAA's cuts, the only way I think cat 6 will be add is Trump wants to be the one to create that level and scientists state it is not re

Lets hope Wikipedia can stay independent. One proposal someone mentioned in a similar article is the US can end its non-profit status. Since Wikipedia at least tries to base their articles on scientific facts instead of Trump's propag

Because you have no choice. In the US, I noticed a trend that companies are starting to offer one choice for Insurance, the cheapest for them.

Lets hope the Senate will not confirm anyone until 2027. The democrats should be be able to delay this confirmation. This way maybe a real scientist will need to step in from the ranks instead of a Trump lackey.

Yes, I am sure what you say is true, but eventually the article(s) in question will be corrected, or tagged in some manner. But just look at what Trump is doing to the Smithsonian, one example is turning US Slavery History into something e
