FWIW I consider the thermals a feature, not a bug. Helps save on the heating bill, plus my house is already very well insulated. I have noticed that my Radeon 5500 XT has better thermals when passed thru to a Windows VM. It would seem that

That I very much doubt. The average outrage timer is 48 hours, then everybody forgets and jumps to a new controversy. As for Facebook, many of my relatives still use it, either indirectly through WhatsApp or Instagram, or directly. Maybe my

Whenever I read articles like this one, I try extremely hard not to view it through an Orientalist lens. But sometimes it's extremely hard to do. I was born in the US, but whenever I'd visit Asia or relatives in India, I couldn&#x

I think what you mean to say is that interpretation is law. Without interpretation by some (vested) third party with power, a law can never truly be enforced.

I actually disagree that they shouldn't allow alternatives for `which`. IMO, just provide all of them and let the user decide. I should be able to choose from GNU which, BSD which, busybox which, or an alias to `command -v`. Default ju

It’s very much appreciated and needed. The company I work/consult for now is using a deb-based distro, but at some point I’d like to switch over everything to a yum/dnf based distro, this distro seems perfect for our use case.

It’s good to see there are CentOS alternatives available. The rug pull that Redhat did last year was nothing short of surprising, at the previous company I worked for we had to scramble at the last second to find a replacement. I no longer

I’m actually not terribly worried about food prices being high. Or the general price level being high. What worries me is there is no political way forward. Politics used to be about compromise. Nowadays it is about wasting as much time as

It is a combination of inappropriate fiscal and monetary stimulus that led us to this current predicament. And it is far from over, because inflation is a lagging indicator, meaning it will not be fully realized until much much later. The a

There is a phenomenon I have witnessed working both in high growth startups and traditional Fortune 500s. At some point, the company starts attracting Dark Triad personality types that cement themselves in upper management positions, usuall

Out of curiosity, I looked up how much it costs to become an registrar. Based on the ICANN site, it is $4,000 USD per yr, plus variable fees and transactions fees ($0.18/yr). Does anyone have experience or insight into running a domain

I don’t think anyone would ever dispute the mental health benefits, though many people also lose their minds when drinking to excess. The purpose of these studies is to provide guidance to healthcare providers, so they can better assess the

That’s merely conjecture on my part. The two are quite different based on their descriptions. The Vedic Vishnu is described as a fierce warrior, like Varaha, a wild boar. Krishna is way more calm, reasonable, and shall we say crafty. The tw

The bee was very important for Indo-Europeans, because honey has a really good shelf life, a necessity when one is nomadic. From the Rig Veda I 154: “तद॑स्य प्रि॒यम॒भि पाथो॑ अश्यां॒ नरो॒ यत्र॑ देव॒यवो॒ मद॑न्ति । उ॒रु॒क्र॒मस्य॒ स हि बन्धु॑रि
