I tried to switch to iOS when my pixel 3xl died. I gave up after 24hrs and bought a Pixel 6Pro.

Every time I tried to do something on the iPhone, or find a comparable app, it either couldn't be done, or needed an app with an ongoing paid subscription. It was infuriating. Paying one time for an app is one thing. I don't need to be spending 10s of dollars or a month in perpetuity just to use some apps on my phone when I can get the same functionality free, or for a smaller one time payment elsewhere.

But it will eventually. It just happens to be a large enough mass in a stable-ish orbit to last a long time. The same isn't true of most of our space junk.

The main point was always portability, and the ability to run NetBSD on basically ANYTHING.

So it sounds like basically it's just client certificates?

Biggest problem I see is its inability to embed images and other multimedia.

That's one of its best features as far as I'm concerned, and one of the reasons I still use it every day.

I switched back to Firefox about 2 years ago, and I've only encountered a few sites that don't work properly.

With the exception of ONE annoying SaaS site I need at work (which I might use a ton for a week then not again for weeks), I've only had to open a site in Chrome/edge maybe once a month. That includes running Firefox on my phone in addition to my work and personal desktop/laptops.

How much could a banana possibly cost?

The main shortcoming of that is that it's easily definable and determinable that someone is under 35yrs old, or hasn't lived in the US for 14yrs.

But the definition of participation in insurrection is a little more loosy-goosy, and then you have to be (legally speaking) explicit in what constitutes proof that a potential candidate has participated in such an insurrection. Otherwise it will devolve into anyone accusing the candidates they don't like of having participated in attempted insurrection.

To be clear, I'm not advocating that Trump should be allowed on the ballot or to be president, because he absolutely shouldn't. I'm just pointing out that it's not as simple as saying a candidate is younger than 35.

This fuck-knuckle has 5 kids. If any of them are girls, I'd bet good money he wants this because he wants to be sure they can't have an abortion when he knocks one (or more) of them up, as part of his Handmaid's Tale fantasy.

And then make him take care of it for 18 years.

Y'all must be doing something wrong because HW raid has been hot garbage for at least 20years. I've been using software raid (mdadm, ZFS) since before 2000 and have never had a problem that could be attributed to the software raid itself, while I've had all kinds of horrible things go wrong with HW raid. And that holds true not just at home but professionally with enterprise level systems as a SysAdmin.

With the exception of the (now rare) bare metal windows server, or the most basic boot drive mirroring for VMware (with important datastores on NAS/SAN which are using software raid underneath, with at most some limited HW assisted accelerators) , hardly anyone has trusted hardware raid for decades.

If you have a technical architect who does that then they are just bad at their job, but that doesn't invalidate the importance such a position can have (if done right) in a large software development company.

I's she also going to sue Ticketmaster and her own PR team for publicly releasing every city she's going to in her tours?

No, but apparently people are going to be a cunt about it if one chooses not to say it.

So instead of addressing the problems underpinning increased violence, you think the right solution is to have the population pay (via taxes) provide protection to the political elite that most of the population can't afford to provide for themselves?

Cheapest 1 bedroom rent can find is 2.3k/month.

Where though? If you're in a historically HCOL area, then that's hardly surprising.

I'm in an easily commutable suburb of one of the largest metro areas in the country and there are 1br apartments available in decent areas for $1000-1200ish. Not what I'd call "cheap" but a far cry from what you're claiming.

I despise docker/containers.

Not sure. It's $9.99 normally but I think she's got a discount somehow (teacher? Or some kind of bundle?)

I'd bet good money that he was only furious because it ruined his (pathetic) attempt to bully her into skipping lunch, and made him look like a fool when it failed. That's exactly the kind of thing that would make him furious.

Likewise, just cancelled Disney+ and Hulu last month, along with Paramount+, and Netflix.

Only still have AppleTV+ because it's still cheap. And then Max because it's included in our cell service, and Amazon for the shipping, but I don't really use either, and am looking into the feasibility of dropping Prime, if I can convince the wife.
