That’s a valid take. I will say I think using her birth name does more to highlight the fact that nobody named Nimrata could secure the republican nomination. And also that it’s a little sad that someone would try to hide their heritage to win the votes of people who clearly don’t like who they are.

Side note: My education doesn’t seem nearly as enlightened as yours. A People’s History of the United States by Howard Zinn covers the darker side of Columbus’s expeditions in great detail and its eye opening. I knew there was whitewashing of Columbus but wasn’t prepared for the amount/severity.

Fun fact: this book is also published by Harper Collins.

Sounds like maybe Trump has dementia.

Shorting the hell out of this one.

My bet is that their valuation is going to be ridiculous and the price will drop like a rock for at least 6 months to a year

He’s told his followers that “cash is trash” and that he doesn’t trust the U.S. dollar, calling it “fake.” Instead, he’s recommended investing in assets like precious metals, bitcoin or Wagyu cattle

Hah

Maybe he's just doing research for his hit sequel: "Rich dad, 1 billion dollar in debt dad"

The new / rewritten arch install is fantastic. The btrfs layout, with encryption, really nice experience and end result.

Holy shit, .15 euros per page? Why not just run to der Kinkos? I haven’t checked but I imagine it’s cheaper there. I get the convenience of having a printer at home but this is like if every cup of coffee you make at home cost you the Starbucks $8.25.

There used to be an issue with IPV6 being enabled causing steam downloads to be very slow on Linux. I remember people saying that disabling IPV6 resolved the issue.

It's the same, I picked up an Orange Pi 5 plus on sale and didn't even think about the kernel and module driver situation. It's rough. Joshua-Riek/ubuntu-rockchip and the other contributors do great work to un-fuck the situation and get a non-screwy ubuntu install cobbled together, but in the comments for issues even he gives off a "well, the situation is shit" sort of vibe.

I won't buy another rockchip sbc.

Yeah, I have trouble imagining this working in the US, even if Musk hadn't spent a year flushing his cash and credibility down the drain.

FWIW his white whale or inspiration is more like the Chinese “we do everything” apps / platforms https://wise.com/us/blog/chinese-payment-app

Jet Assisted Takeoff - The gif is Fat Albert which is part of the Blue Angels. There was a plan to use jet-assisted landing and takeoff to rescue hostages in Iran but it wasn't used after a failed test of the landing jets.

For the easy option / question - do you have bitlocker enabled? That’s not enough?

Do you want the encrypted folder to be automatically-unlocked or unlocked with a password

You can build your own Linux kernel for WSL, I haven’t done it and unless that sounds like fun to you that’s not the route I’d go.

What's Mozilla doing?

Are there any alternatives for people with gluetun allergies?

It depends how they clone it. I’m assuming now your 250gb drive is c, 1tb drive is d. After the cloning if you want the 1tb to be c and 2TB to be d, just tell them what you want and they should be able to make that happen.

For a bit more technical info, you also have a small EFI partition (unless this pc is very old), probably on your 250gb drive. This partition is what your computer boots from initially. When windows is installed it writes information to that partition, both initial boot binaries but also information about where your windows partition is. When they clone the 250gb drive they’ll also clone that partition, and depending on the method they use to clone, that pointer from efi will either not need to be modified, or they’ll fix it with tools called bcdboot and bcdedit. Bcedit has some read-only commands but I wouldn’t suggest messing with either, just mentioning them if you’re curious to read about them and understand the process a bit more

I can’t quite tell but it looks to me like it’s doing a turn-around there? Like instead of doing a complete circle for the inner wall it’s turning to do a continuous path for the rest of the print.

What slicer are you using? I only know cura and have never had this problem but I’d try doing less than 100% fill rate which seems to have an indirect effect to cause it to prefer cleaner paths for walls. I’m sure there are some other wall related settings to play with.

Congress is the Senate and the House of Representatives. Two chambers.

Hah. Clearly this should happen, but I hope the irony of self-enriching congress lecturing others about ethics isn’t lost on anyone.
