Your plugs look like they are an anime frowning girl with a sweat drop on their forehead.

I'm curious what CPU was in it, as there aren't any CPUs listed from 2019 that aren't supported.

These were done in crowded, enclosed areas. And not very discreetly.

Ahhh hot knifing, the tequila of weed smoking

It is banned under the same laws and rules, but since it takes less than 2 seconds to take a hit and blow it downwards so it doesn't show on cameras, you have to be there the moment it happens or they will deny it was then. I see kids vaping on the bus often, and this is what they do. Yes, kids. I see 12-14 year olds doing this. I've also seen people doing big vape clouds in bars, beside the signs saying no vaping.

Things have changed since then. Steam not only has a Linux client, but also has Proton which loads most Windows apps (it's marketed for games, but in reality it will work on Windows apps).

Most games that don't have kernel level anti-cheat tend to work.

Have you tried to play the games or did you look them up on a site? I've found that unless you are looking at a popular new game, a lot of the games listed are saying that they don't play, but we're last checked in 2023, and they do work now but no body has updated the new results.

Congratulations on the downgrade. You've gone from an OS that will support your hardware from at least 10 years, to maybe 7 years of support.

Anecdata: Some artists I've known told me they bought a Mac because when they went to the store, and when they asked what they should look for/get they were told "Artists use Macs", so they said ok, not because they wanted it, but told that's what they should use.

The problem with trees in an urban setting is trees have roots, and these cause issues. The can damage pipes and other underground objects. And many trees that are designed to not have these issues, end up with stunted/damaged roots which severely effects the trees growth. Planting trees in urban settings take quite a lot of pre-planning, and aren't drop in solutions, and if the areas weren't originally designed with trees in mind, you are likely to cause more problems than solutions.

On a serious note, what can't you do with your Pixel? The only issues I've had is I can't access networking functions. Beyond that, not much limits in most things I do. And with Android 16 allowing for installing Linux apps (not just terminal ones, but full graphical ones like VS Code, Blender 3D, etc), there is little I can't see it not being able to do. (No Wireshark though, but that's networking, the only painful point for me).

As Kavanuagh’s comment demonstrated, the Republican-appointed justices seemed to feel that in America today, it is religious people who are the victims of discrimination and whose needs are ignored.

So the group who are tax exempt and have many of their religious holidays as nationally recognized paid holidays, as well as have had the last 47 presidentail elects be of their religion (not including in other positions of authority), are suddenly victims of discrimination?

so my question here would be: does this mean linux now is ready for the education sector?

No, not for elementary/HS. You have to understand that schools aren't regular users. They will have 2 top priorities:

1. Hardware vender support. There isn't any vendor that can/does support the volume and pricing that a school will do. While some major vendors are starting to offer Linux pre-installed, they aren't apart of their educational vendor options.
2. They need to have a "drag and drop" security suite. Schools don't have large/well skilled IT department, so they rely on security suites that "tick off all the boxes". This allows them an excuse is suddenly little Timmy has porn on their school computers. (This is one of those reasons ChromeOS is becoming so popular. They can issue a device, have the student only have a Google Workspace for Education account, and then walk away. Easy and simple. And yes, there are many websites that can tell you how to get around it, but then the school gets to turn around and claim the student "hacked" it and is in violation of rules X, Y, and Z to which the parent can also be held responsible.)

Until these two issues are solved, Linux won't be ready for the public education sector. (When the parent issues the device, all rules are gone since it's up to the parent what limits to place, and all the school will say is that the device must be able to run programs X, Y, and Z.)

Forcing employees to rely on tips to get above slave wage is generally not a thing in Europe

It is in England (which while not in the EU, it is in Europe). And unlike the US, they will try to guilt you into a big auto tip.

It could, but it might also lead to something harmful for the deer at the same time. I'm not sure if the gene affecting the deer's eyesight is known, but it could be a pleiotropic gene (a gene that influences multiple traits at once).

If that's the case, and the other effect is negative and somehow spreads through the population, it could become a future issue for the deer. Think about humans—we lost the ability to produce our own vitamin C. Almost every other mammal can produce their own (except for hamsters). When this happened, it didn’t harm us right away, so it spread through the population. But over time, it led to issues that weren’t a problem before, like scurvy.

Same could happen to the deer.

Playing older games means you are not contributing to today's quarterly results.

It's the digital/video game version of forced obsolescence.

From the article: "In October, students at Assumption University in Massachusetts allegedly lured a 22-year-old man to campus, called him a predator and chased and attacked him when he tried to escape, according to a police report. After reviewing the man’s Tinder messages, officers said the man had thought he was meeting an 18-year-old student, not a 17-year-old, as the students had alleged."

Thats how. You lie.

Yeah, no one wants to buy a swasticar or a deploreon anymore.

Possibly the fact many customers don't want it. According to three Apple CarPlay site:

With digital car keys and the already seamless experience of Apple CarPlay, there are more ways than ever to take your iPhone on the road. With car keys, you can unlock and start your car with iPhone. And CarPlay gives you the ability to safely use what you love about your iPhone while you drive.

I don't have an iPhone, so from all the marketing blurbs, it's pretty much saying "Spend a ton of extra money for something you can never use." I'll pass on spending $1000+ on that useless"upgrade". And since Apple is notorious about locking iThings to Apple only hardware (or just not having full functionality when they do allow it), I doubt I'm alone in this thought.
