Right on. Glad to know Krugman and his friends in NY are ok. But him pointing at the numbers and saying “I’m right” really just comes across as ignorant. If you’re on minimum wage and you can’t escape it, then the times are worse than ever. His PhD students are probably in that income range and earn as much as they did 10 years ago, but he got his and probably doesn’t even know hardship…

That public defense is gonna be in for the case of his lifetime…

That sounds cool… Wish the article said what it does.

5, 3, 6 are all decent.

I cannot tell you how many towels the average person uses, or what the distribution is. Though it’s probably less than 4. What I can say is that it doesn’t hurt anybody, so if it feels good for you, just do it. That’s the nice thing about being an adult, you can do what you want.

I would note though that it’s probably much more important how often you change and wash your towels than how many you use.

Buy one that has enough space to open it up and put an apple airtag in there?

Lenovo/Thinkpad will certify certain models for use with Linux, other brands sell Linux laptops. Those are obviously good indicators that those models should be safe to choose. More generally, the more popular a model is, and the longer it’s been on the market the more likely they are to be compatible, just because they are in people’s hands and people tinker with them and add stuff to the Linux Kernel. So stay away from the latest model that is uncertified, and don’t choose the flashy, overpriced model that will see poor sales.

You might be able to find a discounted ThinkPad X12 detachable with an i5. It does not officially support Linux, but most features work, except for the volume rocker. It’s become my daily driver – really won me over. The keyboard is great btw.

I thought the scripture was quite clear with that whole “Thou shalt not kill” part…

Stable as in rarely crashes, or stable as in rarely changes over the years?

The LTS versions of Ubuntu are stable in the second sense, they get ten years of support but you’re stuck with old versions or (stable) programs in exchange. I also have not seen any of them experience a fatal crash, too. So stability isn’t the issue, its more about what you want to do and compatible with most recent versions of software.

“In each round Tuesday, the lowest vote-getter will be eliminated until a single candidate secures a simple majority of those in the room.”

Ranked choice, how progressive ?!

If you only find that mildly infuriating, them you’re a more mild manner person than I am.

Is it just me who has never experienced any issues with gnome extensions whatsoever? Sure, a lot of them errored out and just wouldn’t work, but it wouldn’t affect my system.

Similar experience here. NVidia is pretending to become more open but their software engineers really cannot handle their hardware. I finally bought a non-NVidia device which happened to become my daily driver. As soon as I go back to ML, my plan is to buy a powerful desktop computer and install stable a stable version of cuda etc there, and then execute everything via ssh from my laptop. Might even use my Linode to forward the port so I can work remotely from anywhere.

I’m more surprised about Kaliningrad, what route would that even be?!

That, or they bought into their own bullshit – concerning wide either way.

Ironically, Musk also wanted us to believe that 50% of those were bots just a couple months ago…
