The headline was accurate. Read the article.

In the statement on their website, Sunderman literally quotes himself telling McGraw that the girls couldn’t play because if they beat a boys team in the playoffs then the boys might get frustrated and physically retaliate, causing a liability issue.

He didn’t say they couldn’t play because they registered as a boys team. That was more of a supporting anecdote presented because of social media blowback.

Who cares. He was using metric wrenches as an analogy. The topic isn’t the value of metric literally.

They say pioneers take the arrows and the settlers take the land, but in your case sounds like the pioneers get speaker support! Thanks for the update.

Are you running that natively? I didn’t know it was ready for daily driver use.

I am like you. I have a MacBook and when I needed more power I bought a Threadripper Pro running Linux. I recently bought a MacBook Pro with lots of RAM and disk space that is somewhat redundant to the workstation but mostly just wanted more power for when I happen to need it. I’ve had really good luck with AppleCare. I even got a free iMac to replace a very old iMac that a coworker gave me that had a hardware defect.

The last paid update was 10.8 Mountain Lion in 2012. It seems it was $30. The last full priced update was 10.5 Leopard for $129 in 2007.

The biggest bloatware problem is third party bloatware, installed by OEMs or carriers. This was a huge problem on systems like Dell and Android before the Pixel. One reason so many people switched to Apple was the clean design and relative lack of bloat. Windows and Android both stepped up their game in response.

My father in law has Windows 7 machines that he uses for scientific work that he refuses to update. His solution is to prevent them from connecting to the internet. Unfortunately not willing to try modern Linux.

Paragon Software makes NTFS and EXT4 drivers for MacOS as well. They are referenced in the comment you are replying to. I’d personally go with whichever file system is easier to recover if something gets corrupted.

Sean from Action Retro on YouTube has videos demonstrating how to set this up. Highly recommended!

Earthletes.

“Y’all” is Texas’ greatest cultural contribution IMO.

Last time I bought what I thought was a pure balloon of He, I’m pretty sure it had gotten cut with fentanyl.

Seems like it has more to do with video games moving to a subscription basis. I’ve been trained not to buy PS5 exclusives after seeing everything I bought be added to a $10/month PS Plus offering.

The CEO should be fired. Thousands of restaurants already have variable, demand based pricing, but no one cares because those restaurants call it “happy hour”.

But what about the poop knife story?

This isn’t a scenario I’m familiar with. How can I learn more?

I’ve got three grocery stores near my house. One is owned by Kroger and two by Albertsons. I hate to think what would happen if there were zero effective competition.

I have this same problem when passing an AMD GPU to a virtual machine on my Linux desktop. It works the first time and then doesn’t initialize the card on reset. What you’re experiencing sounds an awful lot like the AMD Reset Bug. In my case a host machine restart resets the card. I’d suggest checking the bios to see if it’s got some kind of quick restart feature that is intended for Windows. Not being able to close the lid is unacceptable. You should return it if you can or run windows.
