I'm gonna take this chance to air my personal grievance with "Iodine", which is commonly pronounced (in the US at least) "aye-o-dine", but if we look at all of the other halogen, their "-ine" ending is pronounced "-een", and therefore iodine should clearly be pronounced "aye-o-deen".
I keep seeing people talking about the Marines and the National Guard being deployed, and this is certainly egregious and the blame for it rests squarely on Trump's head... But I have not seen many people mention that the LAPD are not being deployed by Trump. They are being deployed by Californian Politicians, and from the livestreams and videos I've seen, the police are the ones shooting LTL rounds and flahsbangs at civilians and reporters. Let's not lose sight of the fact that the police response has been unacceptably violent, national guard or not. It is the violence from the police that has historically, and will in this instance as well escalate the situation.
I have a drip coffee maker that's gotta be almost 40 now. It was given to me by an older family member when I moved into a new apartment. It still works fine as far as I can tell...
Just a funny story, but, I use an Ubuntu laptop as my work computer as a teacher, and once, while I was helping another student with work, a student opened my laptop and began trying to install Roblox. She got far enough to figure out it wouldn't work, and started searching for how to install it. When I came over she was trying to figure out how to set up Wine. She got pretty close to getting it working before I came over. I was secretly pretty impressed with how fast she figured it out. It couldn't have been more than a few minutes.
I suspect the devil is in the detail here. China is only the third largest supplier of auto parts overall at ~9%, after Mexico (41%) and Canada (10%). 1 But for some particular vehicles, China is a much more significant supplier2, and for some components, particularly components of EVs China is damn near the only supplier presently 3. Also this exemption seems to be set to decay over the next three years. This all reads to me as Trump making incentives for building out production for the worse kind of car that is less likely to grow in demand, and only putting those incentives in place for 3 years when it would take, like, 10 or 15 years to build the supply chain and production... All while locking us out of the fastest growing market for cars.
Ubuntu. It was reccomended to me by a few of my mor knowledgeable friends, and I haven't had any major issues with it. The operating system is doing what I need it to and I just can't find any motivation to want to change.
I'm actually stealing this as an explanation next time I'm at a house party and someone whips out the uno cards.
