Depends on what you’re using it for. Fedora’s release ver upgrades are fairly seamless. Just a big dnf update really.

Meanwhile I have a bunch of servers stuck on CentOS 7 that are going to need to be completely rebuilt by next summer. I’m also limited by them because the pdf generator I use requires a version of libpango that was released in 2019 and EL7 is stuck on the 2018 version.

I switched from Rocky to Fedora Server because I was sick of running into compatibility issues with dependencies that exist in the Fedora repo and not EL.

Specifically postgres. One of the projects requires postgis and gdal, which are in the Fedora community repo, but I have to use the official postgres repo on Rocky and the people that maintain those repos are literally incompetent. They have an automated script that generates all of the packages and they can’t even be bothered to double check that the packages are built against the correct version of postgres, so your install will fail because a PG14 package is looking for a dependency that only exists in the PG11, PG12, and PG15 repo.

For the nearly $1500 spec they tested you can basically get a Framework 16, with much better upgradability and a 2560x1600 165hz vrr display.

I pay $10/month for copilot because it saves me a lot more than $10 in time not spent typing out boilerplate or searching through garbage documentation.

It frees up my mind to focus on the actual software architecture instead of the quirks of the language.

China, the country that is increasing the number of coal power plants they build every year?

To be fair if anyone is motivated to discover flaws in testing methodology and publicly disclose them right now it’s Labs.

I want to see AI Voyager episodes like people are doing for the Simpsons and family guy. Basic 3d models interacting with each other using generated dialog.

Just Janeway and crew wandering the Delta quadrant violating the prime directive in the name of coffee.

It’s getting hard to do just between AMD and Nvidia on Windows.

I’m old enough to remember the days when reviewers showed macro shots of the wires in half life 2 to test AA between different cards.

Does anyone even test that enabling “Ultra” settings results in the same configuration across vendors/generations? I’m pretty sure LTT Labs found cases where it wasn’t.

At least it’s only the off site resources. As someone who works with credit card processing online and has to deal with BIN attacks those proxy IPs would get banned pretty quickly both by us and the credit card processor. We already have issues with people using free proxies.

No these look accurate. My mom adds extra tomato juice and cooks them low and slow until the cabbage melts in your mouth and the edges of the pan turn black.

The big issue I have with most cabbage rolls is they put too much emphasis on the filling. The filling doesn’t matter, the spices don’t matter. It’s all about the cabbage. Towards the end of the batch I usually end up scooping out the filling and just eating the cabbage leaves and leftover tomato.

Many of these recipes come from Ukrainian immigrants in North America. The size of the cabbage rolls also vary from region to region.

My mother has a similar recipe to this that was passed down from my great grandmother, that she got from her Ukrainian neighbors in Saskatchewan in the 1920s.

I had a coworker who was second generation Ukrainian-Canadian who has almost the exact same recipe.

These types of cabbage rolls are hard to find because nobody wants to poach them in tomato juice for 6 hours, and the result is tough chewy cabbage. Can’t buy them, can’t find them in any restaurant.

I find it fascinating. You could play bingo with those people’s profiles.

The squares would be something like:

• fuck Trudeau
• Jordan Peterson
• WEF conspiracies
• fuck Danielle Smith
• retweets Pollievere
• lines in AB (free space)

I found a polearm that happened to have decent base damage, and nothing else. Sold it for $20 on the RMAH and ended up using that to buy the expansion when I finally came back.

Can’t stand the way it works now either though. It’s basically one of those idle games now. You just play the same shit no matter what difficulty. The only difference is the number of zeros on the damage numbersnas you gradually gear up to whatever the season armor is.

That’s what keeps people coming back to D2R. You get a new piece of gear and suddenly you can run areas that you couldn’t before. You have that carrot of maybe one day getting an enigma or eBotD, or you’ll get a good drop for another class and now you’re levelling up an alt so they can use that gear.

I’m content to wait a few years to see if it gets any better. I bought D3 on launch and didn’t come back until a year after the expansion.

With the amount of microtransactions in the game it’s only a matter of time before it goes on sale for like $15, or goes free to play. I’ll get it then.

It’s between Apple and framework for me for my next laptop. The question is do I want a laptop that I can infinitely repair and upgrade, or do I want a laptop that actually has battery life when I pull it out of my bag because it has a functioning sleep mode. Thanks Intel. Maybe make sure your processors are actually power efficient before axing S3 sleep.

My wife switched from iPhone to Android and has the opposite problem. She never dismisses her notifications, so her notification bar is constantly full and she’ll have 30+ notifications in the tray.

My OCD couldn’t handle that. If I get a message that I don’t want to respond to I leave it there because I know that eventually the OCD will overcome the social anxiety and I’ll have to respond to it.

There is no continent called “America”. We have North America and South America.

When someone says “South American” I don’t think Alabama I think Brazil or Argentina.

The term “North American” is commonly used when you’re describing something that applies to both Canada and the US. Eg. “North American sports teams”.

We commonly use the term “Central American” when referring to Mexico, El Salvador, etc. because even though they are technically in North America there is a strong cultural divide, similar to how the middle East is technically Asia, but you’d never refer to someone from Saudi Arabia as “Asian”.

Protest laws generally revolve around the right to peacefully assemble. If the stated intention of your ‘protest’ is to block traffic and cause gridlock then that falls to meet the definition of ‘peaceful’, as it puts public safety at risk.

One of the linked articles quotes the Essex police who mention that one of the people impacted was a pregnant woman in medical distress, unable to receive medical care due to the actions of these ‘protestors’. I would imagine there were dozens of similar incidents over the 37 hours they held the city hostage.

I strongly disagree with your first point. Kids these days are more familiar with ChromeOS than Windows. Google has proven that as long as it has Chrome and a taskbar at the bottom people will be fine with it.

For long term support I also disagree with #2. The company I work for develops software that goes into both windows and Linux environments. The Windows environments are several orders of magnitude harder to secure and maintain because you never know what bullshit Microsoft is going to pull with their updates.

It may be easier to find a Windows IT person to maintain the system but it’s going to be significantly more expensive and significantly less reliable than an immutable OS like Fedora silverblue.

Don’t forget that a large chunk of that money also goes to the creators. It’s significantly more than they get from showing you an ad.

Remember when Google said that if the result you wanted wasn’t on the first page that they had failed?

The problem is the first page is now 2 sponsored links, a widget suggesting 10 YouTube videos, 5 search results for a related search, and two actual search results for the thing you are looking for.

We almost need a browser widget that appends &page=2 to any google search result.
