Yes, but if Rudy Giuliani’s disbarment is evidence of anything, brazenly defrauding the legal system for political purposes can have that effect. Much like Comey’s claim being one that rarely succeeds, I think we’re in the realm of possibility where rare things may well happen
Salmonella recall? Nah, I’ve got a kitchen autoclave, I’ll be fine
If the goal is to serve people with larger distances to groceries today, and unmet needs, it’s probably not as helpful in wealthier areas like Staten Island. Though surely some people there will benefit.
I can’t find easy data on grocery store density, but I’m guessing if the program is as successful as it seems like it should be, dozens of stores across NYC seems like a place they could get quickly. Probably not evenly distributed across boroughs though.
Anecdotally, it doesn’t feel like the experience is contracting, or part of a shrinking community. It’s worth asking what the data means, and whether it’s bad, but there are definitely other reasonable factors too. Users from interoperable platforms like mastodon and piefed, individual people using fewer accounts, or even fewer lurkers, could be responsible for a good chunk of the data.
As an experienced Linux user, I just migrated my last windows machine to Debian sid, my gaming PC. And it’s great. But I started on stable, and moved to sid after a few weeks, and it really wasn’t an issue for gaming or general use. My partner’s gaming computer is still on stable.
But yeah for someone less familiar, Bazzite and Mint are great choices. Pop! OS if you like the look of it, or Zorin OS if you like its look. You can always try something new if you’re interested in its features.
There’s a very easy way to prevent that; add a rule that any claim made against an officer without a working body cam is presumed to be true, and the officer’s contracting testimony isn’t relevant. If they don’t want people lying about their conduct, they’re given the equipment to protect themselves, and responsible for ensuring it’s functioning.
In what way? There’s this, and the punching down / anti-trans rhetoric thing, but it feels like you’re talking about something else entirely.
I just upgraded from Win10 to Debian on my primary/gaming desktop; every game I’ve played in the last 4 years in my Steam library is listed as compatible, most things I do on my computer are either a website, a game, or an application with a native Linux version or good wine compatibility.
As a personal user who does a wide variety of things on my computer, I don’t really need Windows anymore. I’m dual booting for the time being as I configure things, but I’m quickly running out of reasons to use the old Win10 partition. And all the weird slowdowns it was exhibiting? Totally absent in Linux. I expected performance to be a wash, but it’s noticeably improved.
A launch that affects some measurable user behavior? I bet a tenth person got promoted for this
I mean, it’s in western Asia, next to Azerbaijan and Georgia. “Complicated definitions of Europe” are part of the point here, but it’s pretty clearly not Europe in my mind, but given the Turkish border, it’s not far from Europe like Australia is
Australia, Armenia, and Morocco are all outside of Europe, and have completed too. Basically all European countries are eligible, plus those whose public broadcasters are part of the European Broadcasting Union.
at least ransomware is upfront about its intentions?
Basically since the Wikia rebrand to fandom, they’ve been owned by venture capital vultures, and have unsurprisingly dropped off. Stupid little nonsense like this doesn’t surprise me
This is one of many examples of a class of problem where the technology is the easy part. There’s room to improve the tech certainly, but the technology sufficient to solve the problem is already well understood.
The hard part is how to get people to actually do the necessary changes. To consume less, get fewer gas cars on the road, increase the amount of nuclear, hydro, solar, geothermal, and wind in the grid, and minimize coal and gas use. To reduce land use by cows, and increase land use by trees and native plants.
But maybe AI is the secret here. We have tools that are in the hype moment whose training data already contains several reasonable solutions to climate change. Maybe if AI “finds” the solution to climate change, people will finally listen
Every time I see something this funny on LinkedIn, I remember that it would be an insult to the creative genius of the satirist who wrote it not to laugh react it. Have I laugh reacted something meant seriously? Probably, but it’s for the greater good.
When I was looking for a job last year, I made a point to be honest. I was definitely trying to present an appealing version of myself, but I didn’t want to land a job to learn a few weeks in that they had toxic management cultures, insane work expectations or other giant red flags. Maybe if I examined everything I said something was untrue, but I certainly tried to be honest.
I interviewed over 30 places, some of them almost certainly rejected me because I was honest about being a poor fit for a toxic environment. But that’s fantastic, I wanted them to reject me if they were like that. I’m super happy with where I landed.
Lots of people lie, and there’s certainly an expectation to lie and commodify yourself. Some people even believe the lies they tell themselves. But I think being more honest about your basic expectations and minimum requirements is a better strategy. Be yourself, and not the commodity they want you to be, but also make sure they understand why your unique skills are helpful to them. It’s a fine line, but I think threading it works well, and if everybody tried to, we’d have a bit better world.
