Same, but I recently moved to UBlue. Really good experiences so far. That distro is bulletproof.

Debug, you say? Windows is way harder to keep running than Linux. At least an immutable distro like UBlue. You don’t need to debug anything. Just get it running, get some shit installed over the top, and it will auto update forever. I’ve got lots of relatives living comfortably that way for years now. If they were running Windows, it would be a support call every week and a fresh install every 2 years.
Now, Mac I’ll grant you. A Mac will also just keep running forever. But you can run nearly every Windows game on Linux and almost none of them on Mac. And Mac requires special hardware.

If that thing can do 157 miles, I’ll eat my hat. It’s got a Leaf-sized battery in it, which was actually pretty efficient, yet struggled to hit 80 miles in good weather. Still glad to see it though.

At least Toronto has 3 million people. This is a city that routinely holds 1/3 of its population in its own football stadium.
This is in a city of 175,000 people. And in a “liberal”, West Coast, US city. You really can’t get away from this stuff in North America.

How did Trump “engage in insurrection” though? He said some firey stuff to a rally, then didn’t stop it when it was happening, but that’s all I know about.

No, not at all. More like, if your car is broken you could also ride a bike, or walk, or take a bus or a cab or a train or an airplane. Sometimes it’s helpful to have solutions presented that you didn’t even think of. Like how you assumed that the only way to deal with a broken car is to fix it or buy a new one. That’s not true at all, and I’m here to help you explore all the ways to solve your problem, not just the ones at the top of your mind at the moment.

But then you look at the schedule and nothing seems to have changed. I still can’t go to Eugene for the day, or to Vancouver without getting in at 11pm and leaving at 6:30 in the morning. What am I missing? What exactly is being added?

Yes. Your explanation is good.

our bodies transfer heat from our body to water on the surface of our skin, water that then evaporates, resulting in heat loss from our body
Not a great explanation. Sweat is obviously body temperature, so heat doesn’t move into it. Unless it turns into water vapor, which is a process that requires quite a lot of heat energy, cooling the remaining liquid or the surface.

It’s an open protocol. That’s like complaining about the internet because you were able to find objectionable websites. Matrix doesn’t pay anyone to police everyone who decides to run a server.

If you don't like "the pimp middleman in between", I can only assume you exclusively consume your entertainment on subway platforms and pay with dollar bills, which is great, and good for you, but I like to support creators and live a comfortable life. Some of my money goes to Bandcamp, Patreon and Google. You do you.
"Mole rat". haha, cute. I'm not worth your top-shelf stuff, trust me. Save it for your English teacher.

I never use Chrome or anything Chromium based. You sound like you use Brave.
But if someone offers me an entertainment service at a price, I pay, or don’t use it. You’re not some noble pirate, you’re just a cheap ass who wants to consume other people’s hard work for free.

They said a faster one was unlikely. This isn't faster, so, they were the best kind of correct, unfortunately. Are you able to return yours, by chance?

The new Rust library is really solid. Once things start moving to that instead of rolling their own, it will get a lot more smooth.

Yeah, I do wish they just let you disable encryption for all rooms at a server level. But years ago people gave the team so much shit for not supporting encryption that they added really good encryption, but it makes things harder. Nothing is free.

I don’t think they had the option as the minority.
But they should have voted for McCarthy. I knew that was gonna blow up in everyone’s face. Why did they think they were gonna end up with anyone better?

As long as you never store the same data in two places, documents are fine. But if you’re gonna store my name along with my id on the post you’re describing, then forget it. Your entire life is pain from now on and you will not give a single shit about join efficiencies, or converting between docs and relational, or maybe even your family, pets or home.

Another kind of silly benefit is that distros without their own graphical package manager can use the gnome one with Flathub. I actually started installing NixOS on my family’s computers, because I can start from a common config and have everything up and running quickly. Plus it’s super stable. And with Flatpak, they can install software after I’m gone without editing the config. It’s kinda like my config is the base system, and then they can layer on top.

Holy smokes, it's my most-used feature. I broadcast to the whole house any time there's something important. Friend at the front door, pill reminders, time to do this or that, etc.
“We needed to create a stir to get some change, to get them [city council] to fund us back up. And I mean, that’s the honest truth. I know, that could make things more dangerous. I don’t know. But at the same time, we needed some change.”
I had no idea we even had these things. So quiet and smooth! You don’t realize how damn loud a normal bus is until you’re wooshed around on an electric one. TriMet doesn’t even say it’s electric anywhere. Just that it’s “zero emissions”.
Not a provocative title at all. lol
