Every tenth line of code needs a comment break for a detailed ascii “drawing” of human hands

Definitely Gentoo

The more realistic we can make the training, the better prepared armed school staff will be to respond to an active shooter

At Uvalde, local law enforcement trained AT THE SCHOOL. It didn’t help at all. And that was for people trained for a shootout. What makes anyone think this is a good idea for regular staff members?

Under the 2022 law, school personnel – who were previously required to receive the same 700 hours of firearms training as law enforcement officials or security officers – can carry guns at school after 24 hours of instruction, provided they have permission from the local school board.

Holy shit. I’m not a gambler, but I wouldn’t bet against someone getting shot unjustifiably in the first year of implementation.

To maintain freshness

The real American Dream

Well this is some bullshit. I’m out.

mushrooms and other fungi.

This is the kind of AI-shenanigans I look forward to.

I meant outside the building. No where did I suggest people protest in hiding. Protesting is a right, but maybe not protesting inside the Capital. At least some of the Jan 6th insurrection “protesters” were peaceful, and they were also rightfully arrested and charged.

They could just protest in front of the capital. No need to go inside and disrupt…Whatever the hell they are doing in there right now, but otherwise might be conducting government business.

If people want to protest, it should be outside the capital. Protesting inside the capital does nothing for their cause.

From my understanding, the science for and against this is still being researched. I know it’s not a 1:1 “catch-up” period, but I believe that you can somewhat balance your sleep debt over the course of several days to some effectiveness.

While this sounds scary, I don’t know what I am supposed to do to address the issue. I can’t force myself to sleep an extra 3-4 hours a night. I just wake up and can’t fall back asleep.

Yeah, I believe my wife read an article relating to this. I’m squarely in the short-sleeper side of things.

Some people don’t require the same amount of sleep to function. I sometimes go weeks only sleeping 4-6 hours a night without being too drained, while my wife is exhausted if she gets less than 8 hours of sleep for a single night. Also, some people need a similar sleep schedule nightly while others can be sleep deprived on the weekdays and make up for the deficit on the weekends.

I was using Mint for a while but the system got hosed. I plan on modding Starfield, and there was another game I can’t recall that wouldn’t work on Linux. After I best Starfield I fully expect to wipe my system again and go with a more stable distro of Linux (e.g. Gentoo or something).

To add to that, Android is likely the overwhelming market share of Linux-based operating systems in use today. For that matter, an absolute ton of Intel CPUs have Minux installed on them too, but I wouldn’t call this “on the desktop”, just interesting.

Honestly, between the telemetry data collection, the strange hardware requirements, advertisements, bloatware, and unknown future licensing model, Linux is looking like an attractive option. At this point, I only use Windows for Office and gaming, and Linux + Proton has gotten really good lately. I don’t see a reason to use Windows on my personal machine any more.

Didn’t the US fail to recognize Palestine as a country for decades? Definitely not “equal” support. That being said, this is all a shit show and no one is going to be better off for what is happening here.

Available, yes. Playable, greatly depends on how much GPU you bought with your Mac.

Honestly, I expect some form of it in the next five years. Tech can move fast when it wants to and there’s 💵 involved.
