Come and join me in Firefox and try out container tabs. Super powerful when you’re trying to keep home and work identities seperate.

Is NOSTR any good? I’ve heard a bit about it but I haven’t gotten my feet wet yet.

The goal should be to use whatever is most effective and efficient for yourself,

And if taught as they should be, that will be the keyboard.

Counting out 5*5 on your fingers works and might be the fastest way you’ve been taught to multiply, but that doesn’t mean we should excuse schools not teaching times tables and how to use a caluclator.

It works well for casual conversation. But if you’re trying to have a technical conversation it will fail on uncommon or custom words or phrases.

They also stopped teaching typing in schools. My younger family members never had an computer class or a typing class.

Slight tangent. But I’ve recently been pulling old home videos off of MiniDV tapes. And I’ve found that the ffmpeg dv1 decoder can correct several tape issues when re-encoding from dv1 to essentially any modern codec. So I’ve got like 3GB video files that look incredibly poor, but then I re-encode them into h264 files that look better than the original. It’s baffling how well that works.

The problem is that the quality on Mac has been degrading so It might just be time to consider a switch. Honestly, for that type of user, I recommend Chromebooks.

Honestly, because of the EPA regulations, it’s difficult and expensive to make the small trucks that were so popular in the 1980s and 1990s. Tesla could have cleaned up with a simple single-cab electric truck (especially if it came with fleet purchase options). Because of the economics of the situation if it were priced in the 25-35k range it would fly off the manufacturing lines and become the new standard workhorse for local businesses (think plumbers going out to 5-6 calls a day and then charging overnight), plus it would have the added benefit of a “bring your generator to the worksite” stuff.

They’d just have to be willing to strip a lot of the fancy electronic stuff out for manual things (like manual doors, environmental controls etc…).

Well now I feel silly. Brb changing my default path.

Can we just have flatpak apps added to the system path by default? Like have a directory /usr/local/flatpak/bin and have links to all the executable show up there. Then users can choose to add that to their path if they wish.

“We don’t” is the short answer. It’s unfortunate, but true.

If there’re two different items calculations one “real” one and “display” that’s an intentional choice made because they know there can be discrepancies.

Did they call someone over when they saw the discrepancy? Because, you know, mistakes happen.

Not in software. The software is doing exactly what it was programmed to do.

• trying to install any software that isn’t already packaged explicitly for Ubuntu is a nightmare because there is no equivalent of the AUR for people to push build steps to and you’re quite often left guessing what dependencies you need to install to get something to compile

In fairness it does have the PPA system which predates the AUR and does provide a good job of providing third party amd semi-third party software.

But you’re right that Ubuntu has sold out on building snaps for software instead of ppas.

Claiming customers damaged things that were manufacturing issues is fraud. Tesla should likely be shut down for that action alone. But that would never happen.

Apple reportedly built a version of iMessages for Android a long time ago. Then they realized how many phones their bubble scheme sold and reversed course.

In the 20s Gaza was a tourist destination.

Has WikiLeaks every published a false leak? Why would he not be trustworthy?

They were never able to be called unauthenticated. They were published with DKIM signatures from the beginning.
