I bypass this using Firefox's "reader view". The button to toggle it is at the right edge of the address bar. It removes many annoyances from badly designed news sites.
Yeah, try pressing Alt+[PrintScreen, F] to invoke the OOM killer. It kills the memory-hoggingest process, usually the web browser.
Fedora documentation says this sysrq functionality may be disabled by default. You can enable it once by typing at a terminal: echo 1 | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq or permanently with echo 'kernel.sysrq = 1' | sudo tee /etc/sysctl.d/90-sysrq.conf
If it turns out that memory overconsumption is the problem, you can sometimes fix this lag by disabling swap. 16GB is easily enough RAM to do all normal desktop things.
The US Food and Drug Administration has said it’s taking the issue seriously
And yet, it keeps happening. The Hux family from this story had to sue the manufacturer to get anything. So many people were harmed and probably never even got informed about the recall. Plenty of other harmful products will injure people and go undetected.
The FDA has no teeth, and it's not getting any better in the next 4 years.
I didn't collapse or uncollapse anything on the page before taking the screenshot. On loading, all the spam sections are uncollapsed, and the "specifications" section is collapsed.
Those numbers all take into account existing housing assistance programs, which are used by mostly non-homeless people.
There are 250k homeless people in the US. For $20B, you could spend $80k per each person. Since many of the homeless are families, that's enough to buy a small house for each family.
But you still have to keep paying into the existing programs, or more people will become homeless. Compared to a quarter million homeless people, there are 4.5M households using the existing programs.
The "specifications" section is a collapsed section about a quarter of the way down. It starts out collapsed on every page, even if you open it up every time.
Check out this screenshot from Home Depot's website.
About 1/8 of the page is the product. Almost NONE of the page is the "specifications" section, which is the most important section.
The majority of the page is "frequently bought together", "More from this brand", and "Customers also viewed".
I have NEVER bought anything from any of these useless lists. But they have slowed down the page sufficiently that I stopped using their website and went elsewhere. Try browsing with just 10 product pages open on this site -- you will start having tabs unload or crash due to memory consumption. Some of these product lists have a dozen items in them if you scroll right, so it consumes gigabytes of RAM.
TLDR: They sent information through a fiber-optic cable using fewer photons per bit than before.
They only transmitted information, not any non-photon particles. They didn't exceed the speed of light, or exceed the speed of light through fiber-optic cable.
I wonder if this was from Milwaukee. There used to be a crazy guy in Milwaukee that drove around with a car like this, with writing all over it, and the handwriting was just like this. It also had a busted loudspeaker on the top, playing a fried voice that you couldn't understand.
Most of the stuff seemed to be about abortion conspiracy theories.
