No OTA broadcasts in the US utilize 4k yet. ATSC 3.0 is being utilized some, but not exclusively, but no one is broadcasting 4k unfortunately

I'm 26+ miles away from the broadcast antennas as the crow flies and I get great reception from an approx $100 antenna mounted in my attic. Some HOAs don't allow antennas and people might be surprised to learn how good your reception can be from an attic.

The tariffs only increase US worker wages if they are significant enough to promote domestic manufacturing. If we still can't produce the widget at home for the same or less expensively, then all we've done is create a federal sales tax on Chinese goods.

This guy has ALL the pride!

Nuclear safety and penny-pinchers don't make good bedfellows.

It had to be raised and pointed to have a bullet go through the windshield and hit someone in the face. Don't make excuses for the guy

I think most parents get their kids in the car first because kids hanging around in the parking lot with cars pulling in and out is hazardous and kids can be dumb. Hard to keep an eye on them while you're unloading things so you put them in first. Then of course if it's warm out the car is hot and kids will be complaining so the parent starts the car to get the AC going while they secure the kids and then unload the groceries. Once done of course they have to decide... walk away from the running car with your kids inside and put the cart away, or not. I can understand why sometimes they dont.

Additionally Ukraine is an asset they want to exploit. Turning it into a nuclear landscape makes it unusable.

Agreed. When I was younger I had very oily skin. Skipping a day without showering I realize I was much hotter and generally irritable. I needed to get the oil off me to stay cooler and happy.

Now I'm older and much less oily. I can skip and don't get stinky or hot. Even working out I don't really get stinky, at least per my wife. Not the case when I was young.

If you believe that then you feel the same way or are even more strongly against the Republicans.

Actually even that gives him too much credit. He doesn't care about due process for anyone but himself.

Worked with linux servers plenty with a development job but new to running at home and using a desktop interface. I'm using RDP to access the machine and have run into a few issues I'm not sure how to solve.

First, I'm using Mate and I've noticed issues with have the panel/task bar disappearing. When the machine first boots my user account is logged in and if I then RDP into the machine, the panel doesn't show. If I go to the machine physically and logout, then when I RDP in I can see the panel, but that's a hassle. Seems only one instance of the panel with run. Do I need to create a different user to use with RDP to avoid this? Other options?

Second, physically working on the machine I can go into the network settings and make changes. However when I RDP into the machine - using the same user account - the widget to let me see and edit the details of the network interface is disabled. Why is it that a physical session seems to have sudo access through the UI but an RDP session doesn't? Can I change this too?
