I'm sure any rural broadband initiatives are going to be scrapped, all the more better for business for Starlink.

This post is misleading. This scenario will only happen after all the ice is melted in Antarctica causing a >200ft sea level rise, which would take at least a couple millenia of extreme global warming to happen. There will be beachfront property slipping into the sea by 2075 with a lot of ecological and economic consequences involved, the NOAA has given us a neat little tool for visualizing what's to come. https://coast.noaa.gov/slr/#/layer/slr

This was already common practice to promote other shows during broadcasts way back when I last watched broadcast TV over a decade and a half ago.

I just flipped through the introduction of a GIMP book that the authors hoped 3.0 would be out so they could cover it but ultimately based the book on 2.6 due to delays. It's copyright 2012, apparently something (didn't) happen.

Newsweek believes that everything is going swimmingly well for Biden without fail. Don't rely on others to keep Trump out of office for you, everything is not OK.

If he was at Walmart his issue would be finding one of those bags.

Would have to say very much so and ended the trend of bigger and bigger food and beverage options. I remember there being a coffee chain that was competing with Starbucks at the time that introduced a full 44oz frappucino-type drink, and convenience stores starting to introduce 52oz sodas. Seemed like the sky was the limit back then but all those super-sized options disappeared within about a year after Super Size Me.

On my RTX 3080 laptop I get a significantly lower frame rate on my laptop screen (240hz) and 4k external monitor (144hz) when using Wayland. Wayland has come a long way but I'm still going to be using X11 for at least the near future.

I'm just glad that it exists at all. Google has Chrome tied down on Android because they feel they can.

Apple: what's wrong with just 8GB RAM?

I am a Debian unstable user who used to use Gentoo, the reason I stopped using Gentoo is revdep-rebuild. Do not want to do another revdep-rebuild ever again.

I have a 19" CRT monitor and a larger CRT TV for retro purposes, but I'm not too fond of using filters on modern displays, most filters look 'fake' to me.
