Putin is a despot trying to make his mark on history. No amount of appeasement from the global West would have stopped him from ordering the invasion.

The UN exists to provide a forum for discourse between states, not to be an international legislature. If resolutions actually had teeth the UN would cease to exist in its current form.

It seems like one of the most conspicuous contributors to recent Linux fixes works for a consulting firm presumably contracted by Valve, so it definitely seems like a coordinated effort in preparation for... something.

This is ignoring the fact that raising a cow for consumption requires ~10 times the amount of crops per calorie compared to just eating the crops directly. Also, I don't think I've heard a single health expert recommend eating more beef - the universal understanding is that red meat consumption is generally a net negative in terms of overall health.

This has to be bait.

I miss when this style of website was more popular for software projects. There are plenty of projects with modern websites that still manage to do it well, but there's just something about the instant familiarity that comes with that type of layout.

Do you mean something like "Legitimate Company <hacker@malware.net>"? In this case the company domain was in the actual sender address and not just the display name. Anyhow, ty for the insight!

Bank switching is necessary because the 6502 chip in the NES has a 16-bit address space, with the bottom 0x4019 (~16K) bytes being reserved for system use (RAM, PPU/APU features, and controller I/O). Cartridges therefore only had access to a ~48 KiB range of address space (although in practice I believe only the top 32K was typically used for ROM), so bank switching was needed to be able to fully access anything larger.

My company has on multiple occasions brought in applicants to interview who aren't qualified for any positions we're actively looking to fill. I'm not 100% sure why that is, but it's led to us rejecting candidates who everyone otherwise felt pretty positive about.

Fewer SKUs to worry about, cheaper to just lump all the dietary restrictions together.

Tangentially, that's a big thing at Oktoberfest. I was there last year and it was the funniest thing to me as an American. That and YMCA.

That's my bad; I automatically read "Steam Deck" in the parent comment as "Linux" which is obviously a much different story. I've definitely had my share of issues getting certain games to work properly on my Steam Deck that otherwise run flawlessly on my desktop.
