After six years of hardware ray tracing, the best examples of it are modified old games, like Quake and Minecraft.
Absolutely everyone believes him. The people that say that he means something other than what he's saying believe him but don't want to be stuck with the image that they're okay with it.
So your argument is right, but completely not based on our current reality?
We have but to wait and see. There are new and perverse forms of corruption recently enabled. We've always had and will always have corruption. If he doesn't get it, I give it 50:50 they'll still let him off.
Another way of saying the same thing, is that if the Voting Public want’s
If winning the vote entailed an actual public majority, you might have some argument there. But that's not what we have.
They're not on the finest of boxes and a lot of the Roblox games actually need some decent resources.
When we get closer to the drop dead date I may give it a shot. I'm kind of hoping Roblox will get around too not being pig-headed about it.
Oh, we know. We're in a mixed race community and you can see the distaste on the bus drivers and teachers faces. We can see them ignoring the bullying, and we get to hear the stories when they go to tell the teacher or bus driver something going on and they just shut them down and tell them to go back to their seat.
Dude, if I could get them to seize the means of production...
Each distro picks the things it likes the things it doesn't like and it combines what it wants into a working operating system. Maybe they make some of their own custom stuff, maybe they just borrow other people's stuff.
Debian, up until the last couple of revisions, was very big on choosing* only free things. If you wanted to use any non-free products you had to jump through small hoops. So Ubuntu took Debians core, and rewired it to properly support free things making installation and maintenance on newer hardware much easier. Because it was so much easier, they got a huge support community, and became the default for a lot of people just starting out. But then the guys that run Ubuntu also made other decisions, like trying to monetize some of the aspects or pushing for the use of different package managers that people don't love. Mint came along and kind of filled the gap in between Ubuntu's up sides and downsides and became the easy default for a lot of people. In the midst of all that turmoil, Debian slipped in their own version of making non-free software seamless. A lot of the support thrown into Ubuntu and Mint also helps Debian.
Red hat, fedora, and centos have the same kind of story going on, But it's much less exciting and more about support and payments.
The next thing you hear about* is immutable operating systems. Like Fedora Silver Blue or NixOS*. They're extremely secure, because you're not allowed to make changes to the operating system blindly while it's running, But it complicates just about everything you do in the name of security.
The other things you mentioned were window managers. (Gnome, KDE...) They're basically affecting the look and feel of the GUI for the operating system. It's your right click and your start menu and your window shades at the top and how windows are moved and snapped and organized. KDE looks and works by default a lot more like Windows, Gnome has a rather flexible plug-in system in tons of plugins available. Most of the other window managers are designed for low memory usage.
Another thing you'll run into is X-Windows and Wayland. They mainly deal with backend internals of how the gui does its work. X Windows is ancient and compatible with just about anything that was ever made, Wayland is a bit flashier a little more efficient, and a little more secure, But at the same time it has a lot of compatibility issues with new hardware. Like if you're going to run auto hotkey you're going to have a harder time getting it to run under Wayland.
If you're running on an x86/64 PC you can choose whatever you want, with the lion's share of tech support being available for Debian variants (Debian, Ubuntu, Mint)
If you're running on Mac, some distros are better supported.
If you're running on a Raspberry pi you're usually best going with one of the ones they recommend.
When someone says that an application is tested to work with a certain distribution, if most likely can work or be coerced to work with most of the other distributions, But the developer designed it under and tests it under whatever distribution they recommended regularly. So don't be surprised if you choose something else and you have to fight with it a bit to get it to work or in rare cases it doesn't work at all.

We make it complicated in the name of allowing people to do small scale tax evasion.
You can start a business, buy a car, write off part of your mortgage, part of your internet access and one of your phone lines, reducing your amount of tax due by 1/3 of that total amount.
Honestly the new 1040 website for federal is super easy. All the states did that too it would be fine in my book.
It really depends on the laptop. A lot of laptops, if they can't communicate to the battery they won't use it. It might piss off the charging circuit as well. You might be able to bypass boot warnings or errors with settings in the BIOS.
You could always try to inject the right voltages further down the bus but you're starting to get into dicey territory.
Maybe see if you can eBay a parts machine.
$500 might be a stretch, It weren't for the horrible keyboard, and horrible screen, it might be worth putting a raspberry pi into as a sleeper project.
Yes I realize it's a joke.
How about the other way around, I had this guy come in, he had been out of the business for a while and decided to go and be a mechanic for a few years. One winter in particular he decided that he was kind of tired of doing the mechanic stuff and wanted to come back.
I interviewed him on a phone screen. His knowledge was appropriately dated but he was not bad. I figure he'd be able to come in and get up to speed pretty quickly.
My company does kind of a nightmare scenario where they interview you all day long and you literally meet with everyone in groups.
First thing in the morning first group came through said he was great.
Second group came through asked him some questions and he was a little bit more cagey but still not bad.
The third group was the lunch group, They took him out to lunch and he threw out a bunch of racist stories and while people watching, made fun of people as they came into the restaurant for their ethnicity or their weight, or what car they drive or whatever else they could find.
The lunch crew came back and did a hand off but no one raised the flags right away so we went into the first after lunch crew. A couple of people from the lunch crew pulled me aside while he was in his next set of meetings and said they were extremely uncomfortable being around him and recounted the stories.
I had to bust up the interview and send him on his way. The person that was uncomfortable with what he said is one of the most IDGAF people I've ever met.
Years earlier we had a developer come in with a fantastic resume. They brought him in first thing he was rude, and we're not talking autistic doesn't know what he's doing rude he was clearly making a lot of generalizations about people and being nasty about the questions. Skill wise he was absolutely fantastic and he would have been fabulous to be a lead in front of a complicated project, But he was impossible to be around. Toward the end of the Early interview they told him that they had all they needed. He asked him if it was because of his attitude and they said that it was a team job and they needed somebody that was capable of working with a team. He said they could just put him in a one-man team and have him architect things or do other work by himself. There was simply no chance they were going to hire him. You don't willingly bring that much toxicity in the workplace if you can help it.
I mean Trump just literally said the Netanyahu needs to do whatever he needs to do.
I mean AIPAC isn't going anywhere after she gets elected. The most we're going to hear are some more terse words. Israel and Russia are both fighting for control of this country, and whoever makes it to the president's spot isn't going to change that anytime soon.
We have a pretty serious fight in this country too not support Israel in this war.
She ran this elaborate trade. She'd tell my mother she was giving them to my nephew or to some other relative, then I would check up with them and ask them how the toy was and they'd say what toy.
I don't know whether they ended up in a thrift shop or some kind of trade-up rubber band for a car kind of thing.
She showed up this one time with her trunk absolutely full of just random garbage toys, Tell me to pick whatever I wanted for my birthday. I was around 16 I was like no no I'm good I'll take a hug that's all I need. You could see she was highly disappointed.
I was only marginally disappointed that none of my kids ended up with any of my toys but in the long run it's not really that big of a deal. Those things all meant things to me, They likely never would have meant anything to my kids.
My home is more of a democracy than a dictatorship. I could of course forbid them from playing, impose whatever sanctions, But they have fun doing it and they have a bunch of real life friends that join them.
The sad thing is it would take almost nothing to surpass lunchables in taste quality or texture. They're put together out of literally the worst versions of processed meat and cheese.
I wish Roblox would stop having their fight with Linux and I just convert my kids over.
They absolutely don't need Windows for anything but Roblox at the moment.
My grandmother came in for years and asked for handouts from stuff that was mine when I was younger. My mother kept giving her my old stuff. When I went to move out I went to look at the storage area and nothing that I really cared about was still there.
A few years ago my father mentioned all the toys I still had and that I should come and get them, I told him that They had already given away anything I cared about and all that was left was junk It just needed to go away. He got all defensive. But if you're going to let somebody come in and take from a pool of goods they're going to continually take the best things until there's nothing useful left. I ended up with a small bucket of Legos and a couple of my favorite matchbook cars.
I'm not really sore about it, but at the same time him asking me to drive 7 hours and get the collection of broken items that were passed over No, either sell it in an eBay lot or throw it away.
I totally agree. Quake GL improved quake 100 fold. RT quake did the same all over again
