I give it 3 more years, tops, until Windows is fully a subscription service. Hope you enjoyed the era of owning your PC because it's coming to an end.

I started the ubuntu path on warty, was a distro vagrant after unity arrived, switched to debian a while which was and is fine, decided to give manjaro a shot and couldn't stand it, but oh how that AUR made me swoon. Finally worked up the nerve to lose the training wheels and try just arch, got tired of the immense chore that it became and found EndeavourOS.

I cannot recommend endeavour highly enough. It's exactly what I always wanted and as long as they don't completely shit the bed somehow I doubt I'll ever leave. I can't speak to your hardware concerns, as I went full team red with common hardware for my last few builds because I knew they would have linux on them. The arch wiki is great. The forum exists. They have a plasma version.

The only games I have been unable to play are those that have shitty anti cheat software and the occasional very recent release, but those usually get resolved in a hurry. Genuinely no complaints.

I am dreading the day Gaben leaves Valve.

Of all the things that have changed since Reagan took office, it's nice to see that 'fiscal responsibilty' still means massive unfunded tax cuts for the people who need them the very least.

He's been such a miserable failure that I've transitioned from being furious with Mcconnel for holding up Garland's Supreme Court nomination as an undemocratic abuse of process to being furious that he let this earth shattering incompetent go onto another job when his dead weight could have been carried by some of the competent justices.

I guess it was too long a read.

I guess fractions are hard?

= 1/2 + 1/2 * 1/3

= 1/2 + 1/6

= 3/6 + 1/6

= 4/6

= 2/3

I hope that obstinate pleasure tastes as sweet when the new Secretary of of Education goes back to burying people with their student loans instead working to find relief for them. And the Administrator of the EPA decides that forever chemicals in our water don't need to be regulated. And the new Secretary of Labor decides union busting ought to be protected by the first amendment. And the Secretary of Energy decides wind and solar are the problem actually and natural gas is the future. And the Director of National Intelligence decides the National Socialist Database would pair nicely with the National Trans Identification Registry. Or when the 2-3 fresh, young faces on the supreme court establish fetal personhood. And overturn Obergefell. and Lawrence. and Loving.

well, 2/3 of it anyway.

Don't be ridiculous, they love their customers. You just ain't one of them. Their target demo continues to be people don't want to think about it and have enough money to not care about the difference between $8 and $80. Same as ever. It's also kinda hard to fault them considering how much fucking money they make.

"The danger of Trump is real and I don't have a snowball's chance in hell of stopping him. I'm still going to steal as many votes as I can from the only candidate that can beat him anyway, solely to make an ideological point. Please don't acknowledge how this obviously helps him win."

Pa resident here, the fuckery has been going on for months already. Couple weeks ago a federal judge ruled county elections boards were within their rights to refuse to count mail-in ballots with minor clerical deficiencies on the envelope it was mailed in. Pa has 67 counties, guess how many elections boards are run by republicans. Now guess which party benefits more from having those votes thrown out.

How is this even a real complaint?

It's like people have completely forgotten the sheer volume of great games made before graphics like this would have been the best ever. Some of the all time classics use ASCII art for christs sake.

If this is your lead out, the biggest, baddest, most serious complaint you could come up with, must be a pretty solid game at worst.

 

Semiconductors have already had a very profound effect on society, accelerating scientific research and driving greater connectivity. Future semiconductor hardware will open up new possibilities in quantum computing, artificial intelligence and edge computing, for applications such as cybersecurity and personalized healthcare. By nature of its ethos, open hardware provides opportunities for even greater collaboration and innovations across education, academic research and industry. Here we present Flex-RV, a 32-bit microprocessor based on an open RISC-V instruction set fabricated with indium gallium zinc oxide thin-film transistors on a flexible polyimide substrate, enabling an ultralow-cost bendable microprocessor. Flex-RV also integrates a programmable machine learning (ML) hardware accelerator inside the microprocessor and demonstrates new instructions to extend the RISC-V instruction set to run ML workloads. It is implemented, fabricated and demonstrated to operate at 60 kHz consuming less than 6 mW power. Its functionality when assembled onto a flexible printed circuit board is validated while executing programs under flat and tight bending conditions, achieving no worse than 4.3% performance variation on average. Flex-RV pioneers an era of sub-dollar open standard non-silicon 32-bit microprocessors and will democratize access to computing and unlock emerging applications in wearables, healthcare devices and smart packaging.
