Bidet or washlet? I have a toto washlet that has a built in air dryer. Love the damn thing, but I still use a few squares of toilet paper to make sure it’s completely dry.
The Wittgensteinian Ladder. The pedagogical expedient misinformation.
Oh. Yeah. That’s a good point. When I taught a dead language, I would tell my students that all grammars lie to you, but some of the lies are useful.
Or you get common misconceptions that were never facts. Like you only use 10% of your brain. I don’t think science ever said that, but man the idea is/was really common.
It’s kind of a fun idea, but as everyone has pointed out: every school is different, even of there is some centralized board of education, some times teachers just say dumb shit.
Also, when does a fact become a fact? Like, dinosaurs had feathers. It was theorized, then debated, then clarified, and now there are some reasonable consensus about it, but theropauds probably still aren’t presented as having feathers in some books. And what teachers know this?
Oh! I didn’t know about this! Thanks for posting it
Pine64’s laptops are ARM, but not not RISC-V. they do sell a RISC-V soc (the Star64), but the Rockpro64 chip is ARM.
I want an ARM laptop, but the PinebookPro was a little underpowered for me to use. Some day.
I have had a paper map direct me through a gated community. Thankfully the tools in the truck unfastened the hinges. Still bugs me. It was a county road!
Same. Same. I know some people use their phones, or GPS devices, but when I’m backpacking, I want a paper map and a compass. I bought two a few months back for planning a trips this summer.
The lack of advertising is a big one, that’s for sure. And Dell isn’t spending any of their advertisement budget to brag about Linux.
Maybe that’s what canonical should spend it’s money on rather than snaps :-) (half joking…maybe )
On the one hand, I think you are right, people who know can find a Linux computer if they know where to look. And they should be easier to find. On the other hand, I don’t think many people by laptops at Best Buy any more. Maybe if BestBuy had one people would try it and see, but I feel like best buy is the place you go to buy a TV or a charging chord for your phone.
You can go to the Dell website today and filter by Operating System and select Ubuntu. Through Project Sputnik, Dell has been selling laptops with Ubuntu for over a decade. It’s a pretty interesting story, but I couldn’t find a summary of it online easily.
HP sold he DevOne, it had PopOS on it. Dell sells an XPS developer machine that has Ubuntu pre installed. System76, Entroware, and Tuxedo computers have all been selling Linux hardware for a long time. So there are viable commercial options. I wish the DevOne were going to get refreshed, it looks like a nice machine but alas, I don’t think it will.
This album, An Oath to the Void is fucking amazing! I really like it. This is awesome, and I’m still a sucker for those long intros. Bring 'em back I say! This is definitely going into the cart for the next bandcamp friday.
Any chance you will re-release any physical media? (and I am eagerly looking forward to any new music!)
I wanna hear about your metal project! Atmospheric, progressive black metal? Send links!
Yeah. Standard rejection emails are good. I have gotten some really nice rejection emails. I haven’t dwelt on them long enough to know what sets them apart.
I have gotten a couple of rejections and thought: huh, I forgot I applied there. I have been wanting to do a diagram like this for my current job hunt, but I think I am getting a higher percentage of rejections than OP.
And I have yet to hear any Christmas metal that’s really brutal. I still like Austrian Death Machines’ “Jingle all the way”. But it certainly isn’t technical brutal death metal. But maybe the thing we need is Revocation: https://revocationband.bandcamp.com/album/the-outer-ones
Not a deep cut or anything. Just good solid cosmic horror.
I am curious why you think that. I download Bandcamp files and place it on a home server, and I have never had any problems. It is conceivable that they have a tracker or some bull shit connected to it, but more than a little unlikely.
Bandcamp files play fine on non bandcamp-approved playing devices. This is a big win on my book.
Is RDJ really a good casting for Doom? I like RDJ, but, this doesn’t seem like a good role for imhis usual schtick. But I am willing to admit I am wrong.
