NASA Chief Calls For Investigation Into Report Of Elon Musk's Talks With Putin
  • They're underfunded mainly because Congress would rather spend money through SpaceX instead of NADA, because they can make money from SpaceX and other private goons. NASA benefits all Americans, which is just Communism...

  • Microsoft Recall is now an explorer.exe dependency
  • I moved to Linux Mint after a brief stint with Manjaro. I don't prefer the Cinnamon interface, but gaming has been perfect. Bottles, allows me to install GOG Galaxy and the games run. I even modded Skyrim using a manual process and a ton of animation mods, that worked alright a lot of times with Vortex ( for the most part).

    Linux can handle NTFS partitions, and just take a small line to fix if they are open during a crash. Flatpak software is really stable to install and keep installed.

    I haven't yet had a problem with steam games.

    The only problem I have is with streaming services forcing Windows usage, so I got a VPN and raised the Jolly Roger to watch streaming services.

    My 3080 plays games fine, and the few times it got a little slow I rebooted and it all worked fine. Discord calls and Twitch work fine. I even take my VA Online appointments with no issues.

    It's closer to going back to Windows 7 or XP, with a decent free office software.

  • Some Floridians choose to stay despite warnings of life risk: ‘We have faith in the Lord’
  • You cannot assume that all the people unable to evacuate were obstinate religiously minded conservatives. Very few people have the means to leave their residence when the time comes.

    Not everyone owns a vehicle. Not everyone can walk their way out of the path of a storm. What about all the people left in nursing homes. Katrina saw a lot of people forced to stay. Unless there are no homeless people in that section of Florida, I'm ptlretty sure there a lot more forced to stay than those who choose to stay.

    Letting everyone die isn't a good way to get people to learn and change their minds.

  • Walz: ‘The Electoral College needs to go’
  • Guess you all are fine with having everything decided by a few states. I for one am not willing to end up with rle by the Mob.

    Without the E.C., no presidential candidate will go to any Midwest state, southeast or the southwest. Politics will not matter in DC for any state past the coasts.

    The system we have was designed so that instead of one group taking over we have to find common ground. Checks and Balances are important for keeping it in the middle ground. Just because it may help in one way, doesn't mean it can be used against the Democrats in the future.

    I'm as far left as they come, but I don't think gutting the system for short term gains will help. We should increase the House due to thensize, but I think we should go back to a senate chosen by the state and not having senate elections. It has so far turned the senate into another popularity body instead of people being able to pass laws without regard of electioneering.

  • California governor signs law banning all plastic shopping bags at grocery stores.
  • I just wish they would ban the plastic bags and force paper bags. The thick plastic bag problem came from not mandating paper only. Plus a lot of those polyester bags were so poorly made, they didn't last long enough to male a difference.

    Maybe it's just me wanting to go back to the stores of my youth when plastic was a rarity.

  • That explains it.
  • Young adult women who post thirst traps are looking to be looked at. Especially if they aren't on a private profile.

    It's normal for men of all ages to look at women who consent with open permissions.

  • Mozilla is a sinking ship.
  • Google paying Mozilla for search placement is the same as Google paying Samsung and Apple for search priority on their phones.

    It doesn't mean that Google is backing Mozilla, Apple, and Samsung.

    Mozilla has to take a much smaller cut compared to Apple because of their size, nothing else.

  • One big happy family.
  • I hear you. I was looking more for Arch with less of a hassle. Something similar to my Steamdeck. I guess I should just wipe this weekend for something else. I really want something for playing my steam and GOG games that works with my Nvidia 3080.

    Luckily for me I keep every game installed on different Steam Libraries so wiping my install drive to put something else in isn't difficult.

  • April in Washington DC

    Finally I have something to post.

    I tried to capture both ducks upside down eating. Found this funny.
