I've seen a few people with PhD who want to be developers being put into management roles, getting quite unhappy.

That said, if this type of PhD clearly communicates they want to be developers, the often still get jobs, maybe with lower pay compared to the manager but a bit higher pay compared to the developer

Which is more expensive for the state, i.e., even from a pure capitalist point of view the least favorable option.

Therefore they need ventilators

In addition to the other comments here: Don't run near cows. Quite often, they will start running with you, which is very impressive and dangerous at the same time. Cows generally are faster than you for the first few hundred meters at least.

Wow, that's an impressive list of amateur tanks. Do they also sell real cars in the US? (Rhetorical question)

I guess this is not because of how good the "AI" is, but because it automatically gets note resources than any human player.

Mars also does not have water. This explains why they didn't care to properly protect the metal from rust I guess

I guess that is why Etterra is betting on it. Maybe to motivate another Darwin Award winner.

Yes, its weight is absolutely ridiculous. The other hobbyist's tanks you mentioned are too. Just because there is more of the same (minus razor sharp edges and rust), doesn't mean it isn't sh*t too.

I recommend "dnf automatic" to fetch the latest package index in background

Except if you ran the update from within a graphical session and your session crashed, as this will kill DNF, making the update incomplete and potentially corrupting files. I recommend you either:

• use the graphical updaters
• run dnf from a TTY
• or use some of the atomic spins, having atomic updates on btrfs subvolumes

You can do that, but it is not necessary.

Syncthing on Android has an option to only sync when on AC battery. The PC client might have a similar option. If not, you could probably configure something similar via systemd or udev under Linux.

I don't think syncthing has proper means to synchronize contacts or anything else that's not file-based though.

I use syncthing and prefer it for synchronizing files between my devices.

You watched "Ender's Game" and sided with the humans (almost) annihilating an intelligent species.

It depends a lot on how the story is told.

Does the add-on work the same way in Chrome? Or does Google break it in a way similar to uBlock Origin with the WebExtensions v3 update?

Is this all true for addons available from Mozilla's add-on site?

PS: Mozilla had to limit installing addons because lots of companies installed malicious addons into browsers of their users, often without knowledge or informed consent of their users.

Once again, it's mostly about the money

Do you have evidence or is this pure speculation?

How and why should Mozilla get money from Russia? Isn't it more plausible if Russia were blackmailing Mozilla?

This is the most French comment I read today

Nevertheless, 16% for a Nazi party is more than 16% too much.

It seems like part of your thinking is: Why would a criminal invest effort to attack an average John Doe? The answer is: With a popular (widely used) operating system, the effort goes close to zero. Attacks can be automated, so they will be. Also, even if they are not interested in your data, they will be interested in other benefits they gain from controlling your computer:

• Computing power e.g. for Bitcoin mining
• Your internet connection to attack other computers via yours, taking your computer to hide their identity and location. This is commonly done as DDOS for blackmailing businesses or silencing websites. Or for sending spam or fake reviews.
• Your identity. If they can get your name, they can order stuff on your name, which will get you a bad credit score or even criminal charges (identity theft)
• Access to your local network. Many devices are easier to hack via local network access than from the internet. A criminal who took control of your computer could for example take over your "smart" appliances or WiFi printer.
