How older Americans are grappling with hanging up their car keys
  • My semi-rural county has a separate transit system for this population. You call on scheduled days to go to the grocery, pharmacy, medical center, etc. On pharmacy day they then pick up everyone who scheduled, at their house like a school bus, and go the pharmacy for however long it takes to let everyone do their business before returning them home.

  • Elon Musk $1 million voter lottery suit sent back to state court
  • So now they can go into court on Monday and by the end of the day there will be an order that he has to stop his election lottery for an election that happens less than a day later.

    Good job everyone. You did it.

  • Yet another "What distro should I use?" post, but at least I did some homework.
  • I started the ubuntu path on warty, was a distro vagrant after unity arrived, switched to debian a while which was and is fine, decided to give manjaro a shot and couldn't stand it, but oh how that AUR made me swoon. Finally worked up the nerve to lose the training wheels and try just arch, got tired of the immense chore that it became and found EndeavourOS.

    I cannot recommend endeavour highly enough. It's exactly what I always wanted and as long as they don't completely shit the bed somehow I doubt I'll ever leave. I can't speak to your hardware concerns, as I went full team red with common hardware for my last few builds because I knew they would have linux on them. The arch wiki is great. The forum exists. They have a plasma version.

    The only games I have been unable to play are those that have shitty anti cheat software and the occasional very recent release, but those usually get resolved in a hurry. Genuinely no complaints.

  • Biden's Justice Dept has yet to reach settlements in any police misconduct cases
  • He's been such a miserable failure that I've transitioned from being furious with Mcconnel for holding up Garland's Supreme Court nomination as an undemocratic abuse of process to being furious that he let this earth shattering incompetent go onto another job when his dead weight could have been carried by some of the competent justices.

  • The danger of Trump & the right-wing is real – but we'll never be able to stop the far-right if we follow the lead of the Democrats.
  • I hope that obstinate pleasure tastes as sweet when the new Secretary of of Education goes back to burying people with their student loans instead working to find relief for them. And the Administrator of the EPA decides that forever chemicals in our water don't need to be regulated. And the new Secretary of Labor decides union busting ought to be protected by the first amendment. And the Secretary of Energy decides wind and solar are the problem actually and natural gas is the future. And the Director of National Intelligence decides the National Socialist Database would pair nicely with the National Trans Identification Registry. Or when the 2-3 fresh, young faces on the supreme court establish fetal personhood. And overturn Obergefell. and Lawrence. and Loving.

  • Apple put the Magic Mouse’s charging port on the bottom again
  • Don't be ridiculous, they love their customers. You just ain't one of them. Their target demo continues to be people don't want to think about it and have enough money to not care about the difference between $8 and $80. Same as ever. It's also kinda hard to fault them considering how much fucking money they make.

  • The danger of Trump & the right-wing is real – but we'll never be able to stop the far-right if we follow the lead of the Democrats.
  • "The danger of Trump is real and I don't have a snowball's chance in hell of stopping him. I'm still going to steal as many votes as I can from the only candidate that can beat him anyway, solely to make an ideological point. Please don't acknowledge how this obviously helps him win."

  • Kamala Harris Campaign Chair Spots Turnout Detail That Explains Why ‘We’re Very Confident’
  • Pa resident here, the fuckery has been going on for months already. Couple weeks ago a federal judge ruled county elections boards were within their rights to refuse to count mail-in ballots with minor clerical deficiencies on the envelope it was mailed in. Pa has 67 counties, guess how many elections boards are run by republicans. Now guess which party benefits more from having those votes thrown out.

  • 7 days to die is no longer Early Access, but still looks like this
  • How is this even a real complaint?

    It's like people have completely forgotten the sheer volume of great games made before graphics like this would have been the best ever. Some of the all time classics use ASCII art for christs sake.

    If this is your lead out, the biggest, baddest, most serious complaint you could come up with, must be a pretty solid game at worst.

  • Intersex Awareness Day 26 Oct
  • Yeah, it's hard to take this seriously when they're clearly making shit up.

    There are some cases where the sex is not clear at birth, but labelling every single one as intersex is a terrible redefinition. Sex is, at least as far as the dozen+ textbooks I have behind me (don't ask me why I kept all my textbooks) have something to say about it, detemined by primary gonadal function, aka gamete production. There are 4 categories: they make sperm, they make ova, they make both, or they make neither. If your gonads make only functional sperm but your penis is unusual, you're still male. Much like if it were an arm or leg missing.

  • Man In MAGA Hat Arrested For Allegedly Punching Election Worker
  • You all are talking past each other because you're talking about different things. They can't say he's guilty until he's convicted, because he isn't guilty until then. They also don't have to say he 'allegedly' punched someone when multiple people reported witnessing it, the other guy's face is bloody and and there is video of him hitting the guy. Saying he's guilty of a crime and saying he punched someone are two different claims.

    Bendable non-silicon RISC-V microprocessor - Nature

    >Semiconductors have already had a very profound effect on society, accelerating scientific research and driving greater connectivity. Future semiconductor hardware will open up new possibilities in quantum computing, artificial intelligence and edge computing, for applications such as cybersecurity and personalized healthcare. By nature of its ethos, open hardware provides opportunities for even greater collaboration and innovations across education, academic research and industry. Here we present Flex-RV, a 32-bit microprocessor based on an open RISC-V instruction set fabricated with indium gallium zinc oxide thin-film transistors on a flexible polyimide substrate, enabling an ultralow-cost bendable microprocessor. Flex-RV also integrates a programmable machine learning (ML) hardware accelerator inside the microprocessor and demonstrates new instructions to extend the RISC-V instruction set to run ML workloads. It is implemented, fabricated and demonstrated to operate at 60 kHz consuming less than 6 mW power. Its functionality when assembled onto a flexible printed circuit board is validated while executing programs under flat and tight bending conditions, achieving no worse than 4.3% performance variation on average. Flex-RV pioneers an era of sub-dollar open standard non-silicon 32-bit microprocessors and will democratize access to computing and unlock emerging applications in wearables, healthcare devices and smart packaging.
