Have you been able to try the troubleshooting steps outlined in the Network configuration page on the wiki?

Respectfully disagree. I've been waking up to Chum Lair from the Sable video game OST for a couple years now. I wake up in a good mood because me and my girlfriend think it's absolutely ridiculous and hilarious.

The quote you chose from that source is a bit misleading. 7.6 million voting eligible people in Georgia. Still an insane amount of votes to count.

I have a PhD in economics. Saying that the field "pledges" to be able to predict the future is pretty disingenuous. You'd be hard pressed to find any serious researcher in the field with that level of delusion.

Changelog media is another good source to complement this rec. Longer form, as opposed to breaking news, conversations about many OSS related (and software development in general) topics. Some of their now defunct programs like Request For Commits were some of my favorites.

Not at all. I agree that's what tax funds are for and ought to be spent when necessary. I'm just making a more nuanced point that it's unfortunate that government officials and the justice system not doing a proper job has led to two adverse outcomes.

My point is more about public servants, such as the justice system, government officials, etc. not doing a good job. Everyone loses in this case. I'm not at all against government spending. It's just really unfortunate that (1) this woman's life was ruined and (2) we as a society also have to foot that bill.

Not to mention, damages paid by governments don't just come out of thin air. Contemporary taxpayers shoulder the burden, in some way, for the misdeeds of previous generations. An unfortunate reality. At the same time, I wholeheartedly agree that this woman deserves some form of additional restitution. It just becomes very tricky who actually bears that cost.

Well said

I feel productive just looking at this. Well done.

The reality is that virtually all widely used modern codebases contain at least some open source code (source).

I would want to see all upstream updates for anything installed on my system to avoid even considering a partial upgrade.

At first I was like how bunch upon second thought, there's a bit of addition by subtraction here.

Love a nice cool green theme! everforest?

Gorgeous! What's the image in the lower right terminal? Random? Or still from something animated?

Well said!

I love how you basically made a TUI by combining existing tools. Doing something useful without reinventing the wheel.

Perhaps not in as much need as TIA, but I like the concept behind https://academictorrents.com/ and seed what I can

You don't know why you prefer Archiso?

Steal away! That's actually something I've been wanting to change lately. I've used the same basic config for so long.
