Step one: decrease funding. Step two: wait for them to seek funding elsewhere. Step three: use step two as an excuse to decrease funding even more. Repeat.

This is how they are dismantling democracy.

Individual human failures are often a symptom of broader and larger systemic problems. Pointing out these systemic problems is not over reach.

Every American should report the inaccurate name to Google repeatedly until they change it back. How many reports would it take to at least inconvenience Google?

Beginner tutorials exist. Have you even tried looking? Linux has better documentation than anything I’ve seen in any other OS. Man pages, help files, and commented configuration files galore in just about every single Linux distro without any Internet needed, but it sounds like you never even bothered to look for them.

Sure, assholes online exist in Linux communities, but they are EVERYWHERE. We’ve got a couple right right here. That doesn’t exactly distinguish FOSS communities from any other.

Generalizations about all of FOSS based on your limited experience with a few distros is just asinine. FOSS is way more than an operating system.

Expecting a machine to hold your hand through your learning is such a weird form of entitlement and an especially weird distinction to make since no other operating system does that to the level you expect either.

Corporations pay for support services. The code is free (as in speech). No one ever claimed that the support was also (or even should be) free. Microsoft support is a joke. Apple support is mostly just a sales scheme. Linux support forums might be hostile to entitled noobs looking for a handout and a quick fix, but they are fucking heros when given a chance to help those who put in the effort to help themselves.

PCs are already modular though, and have been for basically the entire time people have used the term, unless you buy them from a vendor like Dell or HP. This article isn’t about Intel creating some new universal standard, it’s about Intel creating yet another competing standard (that they control) so they can get in on the vendor lock-in party.

No, the title is a homophone for a slang term for ejaculation.

They knew what they were doing. Obviously this is (I assume) just more of the same step-family kink fad nobody asked for.

Slowly

They must have been storing your password in plaintext on their end in order for that to work.

Wheels are so boring! Why can’t they just innovate?!

This video says it both ways I’ve heard. The white people around me pronounce it like the one with the union jack (heavy emphasis on the B), the Spanish speakers pronounce it more like the version with the American flag background (ironic). Most of the other pronunciation videos I could find seem to be made by AI voices and mangle the pronunciation in a myriad of ways. This other video has an actual person speaking well (I can’t speak to the rest of the content of the video).

I’ve been mocked and had some people outright pretend they don’t understand what I’m saying when I pronounce guanábana correctly.

Not for the boots. This is the path to destruction. Stuffing them with crumpled newspaper and setting them in front of a fan will wick the moisture out of them faster and without the heat damage. Even if they aren’t melting those materials keeping the boots pliable and waterproof don’t generally stand up well to any kind of heated drying.

This is a fun experiment, but it’s not precisely the peaks and troughs of the actual waves themselves that you’re seeing, it’s the maximums and minimums of the amplitude from those waves interfering with their reflections. You see the interference pattern, not the waves.

And the pineapple armor works wonderfully, until its enzymes digest you enough that the line between knight and pineapple becomes unclear, like Leto Atreides II covering himself in Sand Worm Trout and becoming the God Emperor of Dune.

They shouldn’t be separate in the first place. It’s just bad design that’s prone to failure. And in this case that failure mode is VERY far from failsafe, it’s potentially deadly.

That dog’s smile definitely says, “I’m anxious. Can we leave?”.

Too bad those “easily accessible manual releases” aren’t the actual door handle and are hidden so well you’d never find them if you were unfamiliar with the vehicle.
