There isn't anything better.

Don't tell me desktop linux. It's not fit for purpose and doesn't run the software I need it to run. I do not want to run Linux. I, frankly, do not like what Linux evolved into. The desktop linux of 15 years ago was sort of acceptable. Modern systems infected with pulseaudio, systemd, and whatever the fuck gnome and kde have turned into are not. I'd rather run Windows, and I hate Windows.

Don't even get me started on the registry.

No one will ever convince me that literally anything about Windows isn't utterly insane.

Apples and Oranges. MSI compares to .pkg (eww) installers on the mac side, not .dmg.

That should be your hint that the OS version is too old to be connecting to random services on the internet.

There are places/services where you can drive a (few years old, and slightly detuned, but not THAT much) F1 car with little more than a (rather high limit) credit card.

Anger at Elon, for a vast multitude of reasons, is entirely rational.

You will never lose weight by eating more calories. If you're going to consume extra calories, there are much more nutritious things than lettuce.

Seems the usual HN MAGA types can't handle the truth. Keep downvoting me. Only shows how pathetic you are. Everything I state is easily verifiable from respectable public sources.

Not really. Lettuce has virtually zero nutritional value.

What changed is that right after the CEO visited the White House, a retraction was issued. This White House does not have a history of being factual, but does have a history of doing "favors" for big donors, which Taylor Farms is.

Also for things like hvac temps Celsius is rather too coarse where as 1F is right around the perceivable difference.

Because they taste better than bitter dirt water.

No, the bodies defense against alcohol is vomiting. "Passing out" increases risk, namely that you vomit while asleep, and then choke on the vomit.

Making your router unhackable is trivial. Just pull the AC cord. You didn't specify that it had to be useable.

I use my iphone in the shower all the time. Zero issues.

1st gen is 1P7X, and 2nd gen and later are certified to depths of at least 50m.

Way beyond IP5X.

Captchas worked for a few years too. Then computers got better at solving them than humans, and we're still dealing with the fucking useless things decades later.

Why make a recreational activity "risky" when it has zero reason to be?

To be fair in many cases the actual clothes aren't much better. I've had two pair of the same pants, same brand, same size fit noticeably differently.

It's not something for you to not like. Many of us that have visual deficiencies and have that setting turned on for a reason.

Was looking for this comment.

While I'm not really defending the markup of the commercial system, you're not so much paying for the system as you are paying to have someone to call when it breaks, ready spares inventory that can be overnighted, etc).

A little bit of leather isn't really gonna help much there either.

That sounds quite hazardous to anyone who happens to be epileptic.

Similarly, all apple varieties are propagated like this.

Apple cultivars are not genetic. If you plant seeds, you're going to get some random apples, which probably aren't very good. The cultivars are all produced via cuttings.

If you're more or less healthy they're fine. When things start to go sideways my experience is that they get out of their depth pretty quick.

Airlines killed passenger rail, not freight. Prior to it all being rolled into Amtrak virtually every railroad was losing money on passenger service.

No more than the government of France is the EU government.

Efficiency is never worthless in a world where resources (if nothing else, labor) are not infinite.

Survivorship bias in action.
