"Hey, there's Evan. "He's a young guy. "He likes the Stereophonics."

Are you arguing that imperfect anti-trust is worse than no anti-trust?

Usually anti-trust is based on proving market concentration and abuse of market power - so to prove a monopoly you have to show impaired consumer choice, and persistent supernormal profits / price fixing.

I don't know if that's true for these markets you're talking about, in my country medicines are mostly generically prescribed with govt price regulation for most common medicines. That mediates the abuse of market power.

As for food I think there are usually alternatives. I suspect there are market power abuses going on but more subtle ones in the wholesale / middle market. Most nestle type stuff that i'm aware of has readily available cheap alternatives.

Monopolies are already allowed under patent of course - so I assume you're not talking about that. Although I think patent extensions are maybe a problem that is at odds with anti-trust.

I'd be Interested to hear what the individual citizens can do to shut down monopolies though? If it's as simple as "don't buy their stuff" then it's not really a monopoly; or, it's a luxury in which case - meh, choose another passtime.

I only use my Erin Friar these days.

Warp it until the gridlines are straight.

I don't know how to do the last part - I suck at photoshop.

Thanks.

I'll have a look if I can sandbox in lineage first, then maybe apply for the beta test if it looks possible.

When you say "android" does it depend on any google services? Or will it run on lineageOS with no(minimal) google stuff?

The "t" is a typo.

+1. and yes use the wiki not the install script.

I think theres value to anyone with a genuine interest if they just have a go at an archinstall - I think they can setup most things of interest in a Qemu(vm), or a spare partition, or even a usb or something. Theres nothing to lose but time. I'd recommend the user knows enough about their disk setup and their incumbent boot manager so as not to screw up their main os. Though i'm very tempted to say that's a rite of passage.

Of course everyone already has a regular backup(s) which contains some sort of list or script for all the software, configs and tweaks they normally do. If not - well another rite of passage.

Depends exactly how "modern" you mean, i guess. It seems like whatever humans would be doing is whatever the invincible alien overlords would either: permit; or, don't care enough to stop.

Why would they come here (close enough) just to jam some radio? Is this an omicron perseiei VIII thing.
I prefer programs with the tite "World's 'blankiest' 'blank'."

No idea. The 'typical meterological year' is likely smooth some extremes - that will likely have less variance than any actual year. Maybe the geographical resolution is poor leading to more averaging. But that sounds a bit large of a difference to be just that. Was the total annual production way out?

Check some other tools , maybe a local one - another one might have better data on some things. Some consensus of several estimates might be better than relying on one calculator only.

It's very circumstantial, slope and orientation make a big difference. so it has to be a calculator where you put in specific information.

I think this does it: https://pvgis.com/

There'd nbe loads of others. I'd expect most reputable solar installers aimed at residential to have calculators, or recommend one as part of the planning process. Maybe with localised assumptions. There's one from a govt funded body in my country that makes cost and price assumptions too tand gives a 'return on investment' guess.

Dozens of lemmings were left stunned and confused today as 'Flying Squid' revealed that they are in fact a hammerhead shark with a few tentacles glued on.

Objectifying women is considered bad form. It'd be like saying they're just a sub-class of Person.

The other ones are 'whiny-chromo-sapiens'.

'Arsehole' is a good cross gender term for any humans of known or unknown sex.
