One problem with just installing the packages for different desktop environments is that various config files in /etc may be optimal for Ubuntu Gnome but a poor experience for Kubuntu or Lubuntu. Installing a different DE doesn’t neces

Admittedly my knowledge of Swiss politics is lacking, but I have to imagine that among the cantons there is still much more unity and less ideological distance than there is between, say, California and Texas.

One problem is that states-as-laboratories are not closed-loop systems. We have free trade and freedom of movement across state borders. If state A starts using its own tax revenue to house the homeless population, nothing stops states B th

I think either Airbus or Boeing (or both?) use them in some of their planes (A320 and/or 737)

Printers. More seriously, robustness/security. Everything we “engineer” is incredibly fragile. Nothing is built and able to be “done” if it needs continuous security maintenance for its entire life.

Actually, sounds like it wouldn’t be tough for a Tesla to drive safer than the human drivers on that road ;)

Except Dreamworks did Antz specifically because they found out Pixar was going to do A Bugs Life, and they were taking every opportunity they had to stick it to Disney.

Yes, but the parent is just saying that x86 based hardware that sells itself as being a “pfSense box” also runs OpenWRT.

The commenter said “before” the flight, so I think it was on the ground.

The shitstorm is far from over; who would want this on their plate? Better to let the current guy ride it out and then replace him once things can’t get any worse.

It increasingly seems like NMA won’t happen before a 737 replacement. 777X is going to be under a lot of scrutiny post-MAX and I would not be shocked if regulators find issues that Boeing overlooked before the plane is certified. At least t

They are not going to buy more NGs. The NG is technically still in production but production has wound down significantly. All orders for airlines have been built, and all that remains are orders for the military version and various private

I've seen Waymo's cars driving around plenty of times in Arizona. The ones without a human safety driver are so rare I haven't seen one in person yet. If they were actually confident they were close to FSD they would have mor

No way a Lyft merger could be approved in any kind of sane society. It would turn a duopoly into a monopoly.

Bait parking is the sad reason. People are more likely to park and go into the store if they can see from the road that there are available parking spaces.

You might be thinking of Logic or one of it's predecessors for Atari and Mac. I don't see any software that used the name GarageBand before Apple though. > Logic stemmed from Creator, then Notator, made by C-Lab (the company&#x
