A LiveUSB that has memory checking, storage checking, gpu checking along with stress testing of these would be amazing.
Building a new PC? Slap in the liveUSB, check all the components then stress test soak it to confirm its all good

Unlike the reference series, the comment was not done in 1 take and didn’t have the budget for professional editing.

Censoring*

Censure is like a harsh criticism

What a stable government

And ICE will pick up those immigrants by Monday, never to be seen again.

If it adds to the content, then it is worth something. So make someone worth something.
If it doesn’t matter, add a random screenshot of kernel code.

The “worth something” doesn’t even have to be financial.
Find a nice image that someone has made which is linux-related, and ask if you can use it & credit the author.
If no, try someone else.

If that’s too much work, use a random screenshot of kernel code …

There are artists out there that have already freely shared some really cool art, that would love to be able to point to publications that they have permitted to use it.
If you have some budget, pay them. Value the time involved.

Just not AI filler BS. I’m not going to see some filler AI art and go “oh yeh, I’m going to use that for X/Y/Z”.
But if I see some cool art, I’m inclined to commission something for an actual use case

I moved to endeavouros. First time using a rolling release, and I was struggling with some webdev stuff cause node was on a recent non-lts build and a few other things.
Not a problem for building, cause I already have that containerised. But things like installing packages was refusing, and obviously couldn’t run dev workflows.

Until I realised I should just work inside a container.

I know vscode is still Microsoft (and I’m sure I could get it to work with vscodium), but the dev container workflow is fantastic.
Absolute game changer.
And I know I can easily work on a different platform, os whatever. And still have the same dev environment.

I’ve heard Drupal uses SQL

What?
You have a product that costs 450 to produce.
And you add a 50 markup so you are selling at 500.
Tariffs push that 500 up to 750. Which means a 50% tariff.

So you remove your 50 markup and sell it at cost in that market. Which means a product at 450 with a 50% tariff will cost 675.
You don’t make any money on that sale. Fine, it’s a loss-leader. Hopefully you make up the profit of game sales and subscriptions. Which will also be tariffed.

For a finished product, the tariff is applied to the selling cost. It doesn’t care about the value of the parts or the amount of markup.
A government isn’t going to pick through a device and apply Country of Origin tariffs on every part, or separate company profit from cost-of-product.

If a company says a product is worth 500, that’s the amount the tariff is applied to.
I doubt Nintendo is going to eat the cost of tariffs.
It’s insane to. They could say “we will still launch at this price”, and have the us government cook up more tariffs or whatever. Then Nintendo is holding the bag, or has to renege on the price.
It would be smarter to mildly offset the cost. Like you say, knock $20-50 off but stipulate the final cost is subject to import duties.
I’d love them to say “well, you do you. This is the cost of the console. Your import duties are not out problem.” But I feel (despite their bullshit legal department) Nintendo is more passionate than that, and I think they will mildly reduce the price

What kind of sane person is gonna debug and track down a memory leak, though? Just buy more ram

I’ve heard an Epstein Salt Bath is also particularly invigorating

Boooo

That thing solved with NATO oversight?
I knew NATO was a good thing. They should get more countries involved in NATO

Well, I guess the EU is 26/27th decent.
However, the EU is working towards defunding (I guess pushing-to-change, aka punishing) shitty members.
https://theconversation.com/why-has-the-eu-stripped-hungary-of-1-billion-the-latest-confrontation-explained-246614

So yeh, the EU isn’t perfect. It’s working on it, and it is making progress.
Nice when an oversight body isn’t corrupted

As an augmentation, the ability to spot and track objects visually would be amazing.
But then planes just have to fly above 10k ft, and pretty much guaranteed cloud cover.

Echolocation is specifically audio based.
Lidar is a similar technique, but much more accurate and precise.
Project a grid of laser beam, read when the laser bounces back, you know the distance to that part of the grid.

Valid

Killing Donny wouldn’t change much, tho.
America has shown it wants Donald or a Donald substitute.

Project 2025 is now Americas playbook.

Other countries changing military suppliers isn’t going to change back to america for 10-15 years (hell, maybe even longer, I dunno what the service life of a jet platform is).
The risk that has surfaced of “America has an off switch” - even just the potential risk of rumors of an off switch - means all those military assets are useless when America elects unhinged leaders that are willing to subvert democratic process in order to run their playbook.
And America has shown it is willing to do that. Even prefers to do that

No, from the UK.
I don’t understand how the US can want to have 100% paper ballots, but ban voting booths (which to me means, in person voting). This essentially leaves postal voting.
And USPS has been repeatedly targeted by right wing politics.

What kind of paper voting system is left without in-person, if USPS is compromised?

President Donald Trump on Friday [21st Feb 2025, I think] said he may put the U.S. Postal Service under the control of the Commerce Department in what would be an executive branch takeover of the agency, which has operated as an independent entity since 1970. https://apnews.com/article/trump-postal-service-usps-what-to-know-672db6c590837411ca3ba36966e374e1

So paper votes only, no voting booths… Leave postal votes. And the government controls the postal service.
What else is there?

If the postal service isn’t a political target, then post voting is excellent.
Ballots can be mailed weeks in advance, they can be collected by a deadline, they can then be counted.
But we’ve seen Americas right wing go after USPS, so - quite frankly - I don’t see any way it is as fool-proof as in-person voting.
Voting day needs to be a holiday, or employers need to give PTO for voting.

None of which will happen.
Voting booths will be banned.
USPS will be compromised/defunded to the point it can’t carry out it’s duties.
Only the people that can schedule the time with Electoral College personnel will be able to actually register a vote.
