Still way behind for KDE though. I’m running Sid on my gaming machine and hoping they update some time soon. I have KDE Neon on my laptop and it works great, but with an Ubuntu base it’s still trying to shove Snap down my throat.

Good enough for me. 🤷‍♂️

I feel there’s a Soviet Russia joke in there somewhere. Maybe something about illegal immigrants too. Can’t quite put a paw on it though.

The US is, as a matter of fact, and never has been, a democracy. It has always been a representative republic. Direct democracy as your comment envisions it is very difficult to implement and results in mob rule. If this is something you strongly believe should be stopped, get in touch with your federal senator and congressional representative to make your views known. Call, email, write paper letters, and encourage others to do the same. Make it clear that they won’t be reelected if they allow this to continue. We don’t have lobbying money, but it’s hard to keep taking bribes if they no longer have a position with which to provide a return on that investment.

Legal issues aside, are there any publicly available forks of the repo?

If something is tested and proven, it falls outside the realm of magic and just becomes normal everyday science or technology. It’s like the saying about alternative medicine. Anything that is proven to work is just called medicine.

Sounds like a great question for a doctor.

I don’t have gendered restrooms in my house and people seem to navigate those just fine. I feel like it would work for public restrooms too.

The Disney Vault!

It’s almost like the views of the population of an entire country can’t be distilled down to a single binary statement. 🤷‍♂️

Everyone is Doug now.

Piranhas aren’t even the scariest thing in there

Not so sure about that. It’s one of the hardest failures so far. It’ll probably make lists including Atari’s ET and the Ouya for quite a while.

He doesn’t own it. He has an exclusive license to use it in art. Surrey NanoSystems Limited owns the patent on VantaBlack. Stuart Semple was so angry that Kapoor received that license that he had a blacker black material created and licensed it to anyone but Kapoor. When Kapoor obtained a sample anyway, Semple had a still blacker material created, to spite him.

Yep, DLP still uses a mechanical color wheel. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_light_processing?wprov=sfla1

I feel like in this case it’s more like everyone gets sold i9 hardware, but can choose to pay the i3 price for it with locked out features, then decide later to pay the subscription to unlock the i7 or i9 performance. It has advantages for the manufacturer in that there are fewer options to account for at build time and additional revenue later on. I still think it’s a terrible model that should be summarily rejected by customers, but I see why they are trying it.

I use the pre-ground medium roast in a white bag. 2lb to 2 gallons of water, brew 24 hours. It makes a strong concentrate that can be cut with water or ice for iced coffee or used as espresso in cold drinks.

It is real.

Looks like there is one with 7 also.

They chose to comply with the request and become one of the browsers Putin can control. Not sure how Mozilla gets credit for anything good here.

So like most Authoritarians then? They’re all for it until their side isn’t in charge anymore.
