There is some movement, but it isn't nearly enough.

We believe that software created by the government should be shared with the public, and we want to collaborate with civic-minded peers to make this happen.

About 6 months ago I moved from a big desktop to a laptop with much less compute power. I had to change a lot of my workflow and software because I didn't realise how much background compute and stuff everything was doing on the desktop.

I do miss some of the features, but overall I feel better about myself and my situation. I feel more in control and aware of what is going on with my hardware and that is satisfying.

I was able to tune the desktop down to about 65-85W usage, but prior to all that, it was pulling like 180W just doing nothing. I found the most gains by turning down my monitor from 100hz to 60hz and turning on eco mode for the CPU in the BIOS. The laptop uses about 10W even under load.

Best of luck with the switch!

I kept a standard layout keyboard handy for about a week, it took me probably 3 weeks to transition fully. I fall immediately back into bad habits of typing on both sides of the keyboard on standard QWERTY keyboards without the ortholinear split layout, sometimes I even try to reach across the split after a day or two and hit T or Y with my index finger from the wrong hand.

I see, for anyone else here is the definition from the HTA

“highway” includes a common and public highway, street, avenue, parkway, driveway, square, place, bridge, viaduct or trestle, any part of which is intended for or used by the general public for the passage of vehicles and includes the area between the lateral property lines thereof; (“voie publique”)

Were you on a highway when this happened? It sounds like the law restriction is just highway usage.

Ergodox EZ is fantastic, I've got zealpc zilents installed in mine for silent tactile. Expensive switches, but I've been transplanting them between new keyboards. I got the EZ from a friend when he wanted to go to a moonlander.

I my experience it generally breaks it. Leveraging cookies on the auth domain is fine, but once you are redirected to another domain, that application needs to take the access and refresh tokens and manage reauthentication as a background process. Simply don't store those things as cookies though.

Sex even. Apparently it is too hard to call someone a woman.

I read the article, but I guess I'm still confused if they will actually face any consequences that will make Amtrak not be delayed by them?

The problem isn't curing greed, it is using an economic and governmental system that enables the people to be intentional about production and consumption. Capitalism isn't it, it explicitly relies on markets which is an opaque tool which makes it difficult to live intentionally. Markets tell you to just "trust" that the price reflects the impact of that product or commodity.

XP when I started going main on Linux. Windows 7 was the last version I had installed for games on a dual boot. Linux was always just more fun. I always felt like it was my computer and I wasn't constantly fighting the computer to make it work for me. Going to a tiling window manager was the point of no return though, my workflow changed so much that my productivity outside a tiling window manager plummeted.

I would rather a person in a car hits another person in a car than a car hit a pedestrian because the braking worked the way it should.

So, what you are saying is that all the people using steam combined might make it to the top 100 list of billionaires if their unplayed games were personified?

Please don't buy into geoengineering. We need to repair our relationship to nature through rewilding. We should be changing the way we live, giving up large monoculture crop that goes toward animal husbandry and rewilding the planet to sequester carbon emissions. We are in this situation because our ancestors changed the land and the wildlife so radically in our attempts to industrialize. We overfished, killed whales, ran large predators into extinction, removed most old growth forest among many other things. Humans have tried geoengineering before, we dam rivers, flood planes, dig canals, level the earth and introduce species where they are not native, among large chemical, mineral, metal and other injections to the ground, sky and water. The climate models see carbon sequestration, SRM and geoengineering as attractive options because it lets us continue business as usual. We do need rapid change, of the way we live and with our relationship with the earth.

You are correct this is called geoengineering and it is born of the hubris of humans thinking they should control the planet like a machine or something. The person you replied to I believe is appealing to other people who think Promethean action is irresponsible and instead we need to modify our relationship with the environment, by not continuing down the path we are on.
