Yes this seems like a total crapshoot. I have an application that always lives on my second monitor, and it’s seemingly completely random if it will start there or not. Just like this for a decade!

Huh? The Economist is THE neoliberal globalist journal. What a bizarre characterization. Did you mean ZeroHedge or something?

In addition to the other stuff people posted you also get to use the certified GPU drivers. Which means they actually tested that the card would work 100% with AutoCAD or whatever

Calling Victorian England classless in a “Marxist” sense is pretty rich, considering Engels impressions of their working class pretty much led to the development of Communism.

As someone who did convoy and “force protection” (sitting in a guard tower) in OIF/OEF I don’t think this is a reserve specific thing. It was just kind of a shit-tier job they got random people to do from all over (I was in the Air For

Growth was already slowing in 2019, which is why the fed started dropping rates in June. In fact 2019 was the lowest growth in the entire decade, the lowest since 2008. https://www.bbc.com/news/business-50234626

It's a false dichotomy. There is a lot of space between 'clout whore' and 'rugged contrarian' and you don't have to commit your life to either. People who aren't trying to dominate in some status jockeying

DTMF was used for in-band signaling. For example pulse calls would be encoded into it, and then those tones were relayed. Probably why they sounded like a fax machine auto dialing.

The linked “StaffEng” stuff is fairly ridiculous: “In literature, recurring character patterns are called archetypes, such as the "hero" or the "trickster," and the archetype term is helpful for labeling these frequent v

I had the black MacBook. Yes the “upgrade” was pretty much just because it looked cool, still does imo. Probably one of my most memorable computers, since I played World of Warcraft on it 10 hours a day for like 3 years lol

The US has had numerous pointless wars of attrition that turned out to be awful ideas and spanned multiple presidents and congresses. I don’t disagree with the premise but really, who was held accountable for anything on our side?

"Trial" will gather and store the voice samples if you have "Improve Siri & Dictation" turned on in the Privacy settings. This showed up in Big Sur and is probably the exact same thing from iOS. If you have Siri and

Drawing doesn't really require a lot of 'creative energies' when you're learning. It's mostly mindless grinding of fundamentals, and that can go on for months or years. You should just start doing it to see if you a

I agree. Provide a managed pattern that’s good enough for most things. An “on-road” way to deploy and operate. The devs don’t need to worry about designing and janitoring anything but their application. Of course… the “platform” can and pro
