Linus didn't shit on Linux as a whole, come on. Last time he tried Pop was over a year ago, he figured something might've changed in the meantime. And he did research what could be causing the issues (and found a fix for L4D2), and did also mention that overall the system was intuitive, installing it was fairly simple and he enjoyed not having his data being sold. He also said that all his devices were plug-and-play, no driver downloading shenanigans required. But of course he is going to highlight the issues he runs into, it's kind of the point of the video to show that not all experiences with Linux are seamless, and you can get radically different results depending on your chosen distro.

Having had Rutte as PM for a long time, this guy is a diplomat. He will say whatever he thinks needs to be said to whoever is listening to, without truly believing a single word of it. It makes him exceptionally good at maintaining relations, and that's what he's doing here: positioning NATO as an essential US ally, that the US benefits from. It's aimed directly at Trump and his sycophants.

And I mean it's his job to keep NATO together so sucking up to Trump is in his job description. But one thing is certain: don't believe Mark Rutte's words, since he doesn't really believe them himself.

Doubtful. Librewolf still uses Firefox as base.

Presumably it instantly causes all logs to expire as they're now more than 1 year old, so the system deletes them.

So this is the application form:

Mamdani was born in Uganda to a Ugandan father and an Indian (Gujarati) mother. Which box would you tick?

Mamdani opted to tick "Black/African American" as well as "Asian", and at the "Other" box wrote "Ugandan".

I personally fail to see the problem. Given the constraints of these boxes, this seems to be the most accurate way of describing his ethnicity? Am I missing something here? Why is NYT presenting this as an issue at all?

Trump saying he's white despite him being orange seems like a bigger discrepancy.

Valve didn't decide to pull it, and the game is still downloadable if you purchased it before.

They break after a year? I've had mine for a decade now...

Well, looking at a microchip under a microscope might reveal a lot about how Intel/AMD/Nvidia design their chips. But it's not going to tell you how those chips were then constructed.

That's extremely specialised knowledge requiring very advanced technology and tooling that's globally only really available at TSMC. It's also so specialised that no one person holds all the knowledge in their head, it requires hundreds or even thousands of people.

But even if you figure that out, you still need to actually know how to build the tools that can manufacture wafers. And that knowledge is almost exclusively known to ASML, a company whose products can cost nearly half a billion dollars each.

China does invest in their own fabs, but even they purchase the (older-gen) tools from ASML. Compared to TSMC, they're 2 generations behind. Compared to ASML, they're 5 generations behind.

That's not to say they aren't innovating by the way. Huawei/SMIC developed chips that are only approx. 18 months behind using innovative techniques that gets more out of the older equipment they're forced to use. It's impressive stuff. But again, this does require the state to throw its full weight behind the initiative to create more domestic manufacturing, which a single billionaire is unlikely to manage on their own.

Most non-voters don't hold significantly different beliefs than the voting population. In non-competitive states, it means motivating them to vote is unlikely to tip the scales. Why bother tipping the results from 60% to 55% by spending millions on it? Better to allocate those funds to a 53% to 48% potential flip.

In battleground states they do try to reach these people.

How do you define "closer" here? I'm about 1.8m removed from the size of an atom but well over 299 thousand kilometers from a light second.

Trump made the decision to pull out, Biden didn't stop what had already been set in motion.

That's why he's a terrible burger flipper.
