Have to confirm. I find myself using yandex, (or sometimes https://www.gnod.com/search ) to get better results. This was not the case 5 years ago... just my two cents but Google's search has declined from my point of

Linux is my daily driver for both work and for gaming at home. Big props to Valve for being committed to Linux.

Sadly fack checking is often conflated with outright bias and narrative control. You can literally post links and direct quotes from the cdc’s website and get flagged and removed by twitter for “misinformation”.

I’m not. Linux been main driver for years … even for gaming now (although wine and proton have a big part here).

Interesting as I think we are witnessing a global shift in power to the East. China’s rise and the US’s fall from hegemony is starting to be felt in geopolitics. Russia (IMO)may simply be pressing ahead while it sees the US’s power current

This is honesty good news. The best case scenario is a new less deadly highly contagious strain that become the most dominant and spreads worldwide. Way too many comments and articles that try and keep the fear train running full steam. A

This is good competition is needed to help with pricing. AWS and other large cloud providers have an incentive to “lock” customers in and raise prices. There must be a pressure by competition to keep this incentive in check.

Honestly not really. Even a 2012 MacBook Pro i5 with 16 gigs of ram and a SSD is a solid machine. High Sierra runs well on this device.

Mind boggling anyone would pay 10$ for a NFT let alone one of a bored ape. Each to their own and everyone is free to spend their money on what they see fit, just throwing in my two cents … not seeing any lasting value in NFT’s like this.

Apple is not progressive. Apple does not care about user privacy outside of a marketing strategy in US. Apple is not eco friendly. Apple is a mega corporation that in many ways is ruthless and efficient. They make solid hardware and are e

Surprised at how much leadership Paul showed. I had heard this previously was watching the sessions really displayed how he was the de facto band leader at this point.

Interesting. So far the Omicron variant has shown itself to be mild with minimal hospitalizations and 0 reported deaths worldwide. Is there even a need to vaccinate at all? It would seem this is the variant we would want to spread worldwi

Meh… Omicron spreading may actually be a good thing. As of now there are no reported seriously cases of Omicron infections. 0 hospitalizations. If the virus has evolved into a more contagious milder version then this is excellent news.

Quick follow up. I once used a IASS provider (hyperstreet) that was terrible. Long story short provider ended closing shop and the owner of the company now sells real estate in California. Was a nightmare recovering data. Even when the s

I wonder too if it has to do with the eating. People who eat less and intermittently fast have lower rates of Alzheimer’s. The thought is when you fast your body recycles excess proteins that build up on your brain, reducing brain plaque b

“In fact it hasn’t been shown to extremely mild”. Where have you heard this? I agree much too early to know from sure but all initial reporting has this variant shown to be quite mild.

So far Omicron has been shown to be extremely mild with only some minor symptoms. Isn’t this the ideal situation? Finally a variant that is less lethal and may help provide immunity against more lethal variants. Just missing the “now is th

My wife and I have three children and we don’t allow any cameras in the house. We believe some level of privacy is needed for normal human development and a healthy overall sense of well being.

I agree with your sentiments on decentralization and the dystopian aspects of what our current web has become. However I still have yet to be convinced of any real value or need of an NFT. For example let say I am the owner of a famous “T

“ Lockdowns only for people who have this marker? I can imagine people wouldn’t want to make this test as it makes them turn paranoid, could we force people to make this test?” I disagree here. People would want to know if they are at risk
