Wake up babe! Next season of Fallout 76 just dropped!

I guess it will have to be appropriated again to also describe the Palestinian holocaust. Their plight is even worse than the Jews IMO, because their whole country became the concentration and extermination camp. They deserve it more.

That competition was formidable, I can see why they went all in.

Cancer. Everyone has a bunch of fucked up cells at all times, but your body keeps you healthy by repairing or killing them, time after time after time… until one of those cells says “fuck the system” and goes rogue. No one is safe.

Why are you working your way down, lead?

Their computers have AGI already. Our computers consume more energy than entire countries to make studio Ghibli fakes and autocomplete on steroids.

Is a hand truck a very small truck?

Edit: TIL, thank you for the replies.

I’m Mexican, and for some reason we call that “diablito”. Our more civilized Spanish speakers call it “carretilla de carga”.

It doesn’t literally mean that everyone that uses OSS will inspect the source code for vulnerabilities, most don’t even have the skill to do so.

It’s more secure because access to source facilitates exploiting it, and patching it, faster, and because nerds that do have the skills and find something unusual will delve into the code to debug it. The XZ Utils back door was found by one of such nerds doing beta testing, it didn’t even get to be distributed to general users.

It’s a telling sign that malicious actors nowadays are surreptitiously trying to compromise OSS through supply chain attacks instead of directly finding zero days. For example: StarDict sends X11 clipboard to remote servers

Unless he saw the kid fractions of second before saving him, I think he could get there very fast, stop, and carry him at human speed so he doesn’t get hurt. A couple of seconds is all he would need, the kid just needs to move like a dozen feet at most.

This cover takes artistic liberties too far into the real of fantasy.

Supes is very fast, he could have saved the kid, and every passenger on the train, by picking up the kid instead of destroying the train. Also, a crashing train will rupture the eardrums of anyone that close to it.

This is probably why I don’t enjoy New Trek, and why I’m not very fun at parties.

I’ve tried them, but my workflow makes them less useful. I prefer maximized windows, so each program behaves like their own virtual desktop.

I rather much prefer dual monitors with rules so each program always starts maximized on a specific monitor.

My low cost solution has been adding external mechanical disks. Those go up to several TB for cheap, so I put two and sync them with rsync weekly in case one suddenly fails.

As others have wisely said, keep the fast SSD for your OS, media rarely changes and is usually accessed sequentially, it can live in slower disks.
