FAA Advisory:

The report cited a 2018 FAA advisory that urged operators of Boeing models, including the 787, to inspect the locking mechanism on fuel cutoff switches to prevent unintentional movement. The preliminary report noted that Air India had not carried out these inspections as they were not mandatory.*

No, my friend. Gold is an incredibly useful material, often not used because of price, unlike diamonds, which are mostly useful for abrasion/cutting.

I used to recommend Mint with Timeshift. Timeshift has saved my ass (or has made fixing stuff way easier) a couple of times. Now my go to is Aurora.

I believe that immutable distros are a game changer (god I hate this expression) for nebws.

Most parents are way less literate than their kids. Most censorship/site restriction, can be circumvented easily.

The Arc 850 is apparently a banger of a midrange card. The mid range, I imagine, is the sweet spot for volume and profitability

Hammers have been perfected over millenia. Cars over a century, with regulations and testing for safety getting stricter by the year.

190? If that means 190cm (6’23"), that’s tall.

Maybe another tech bro o ketamine, like Musk?

Would you give money to that?

I did a tour as a conscript. I hated “losing” over a year of my life when I was drafted.

Looking back, I actually had fun, learned a lot about society, as we were from all walks of life and I came from a priviledged environment. Made great friends.

Got to play with a bunch of things that go bang and brrrrrr. (The MG is awesome!).

Learned to kill in a bunch of ways, being in a Scout unit. Thankfully I never deployed, so it all stayed theory.

Learned a lot about patience, discipline, survival within a dystopian bureaucracy, repressing the urge to frag, teamwork, esprit de corps, and much more.

I really think that despite all the shit that being in the military entails, it was definitely a net positive for me, especially because I never deployed.

But I’m also getting really tired of people purposely putting extreme effort into tricking the LLM into saying something harmful if someone were to follow it blindly, just so they can make a clickbait headline out of it.

That’s called testing, and the companies behind these LLMs should, before launch, put a very important amount of their resources into testing.

“Product testing is a crucial process in product development where a product’s functionality, performance, safety, and user experience are evaluated to identify potential issues and ensure it meets quality standards before release” (Gemini)

We are literally using alpha/beta software to deal with life altering issues, and these companies are, for some reason, being able to test their products on the public, without consequences.

A bit reckless giving advice, aren’t we?

We don’t know if OP has personal data in the windows drive, or copies thereof, and yet, you write:

If you plan to switch over all at once, during the install, tell Linux to use the entire drive (ie, do a full format). That will completely remove Windows during the install.

Also:

If you are going to dual boot, don’t dual boot on a single drive. Windows likes to fuck with other things on the same drive as it, including other Windows installs.

Would you please enlighten me about why you shouldn’t dual boot on a single drive? I, and millions of others have been happily doing it for decades. As a matter of fact I’m willing to bet some money that that’s precisely the most common desktop setup in the world for Linux. The major caveat is that sometimes Windows upgrades/updates won’t respect your dual boot setup, which is usually trivial to fix.

The article says mint chocolate chip. I’m not 100% sure, but I think it looks more like roadkill rat balls barf ice-cream to me

Media reports and social media posts claimed the group was removed after Jewish students aged 10 to 15 were heard singing songs in Hebrew on the plane.

Who the fuck,except jews, would recognize Hebrew songs? That excuse is so weak its laughable.

I imagine you have searched for data, and have looked up Almería (city) not the province. The city is on the shore. Almeria province is hilly. As soon as you go some few hundred meters up climate becomes way more extreme.

temps are consistently above 95° (35°C) blow Almeria and everywhere in Europe out of the water. Hate to tell you, but in Madrid (and it’s not the hottest) it’s been between 34 and 40ºC since June. Albox, in the province of Almeria for example had a max in 2021 of 45º C.

For most vegetables, passive methods, such as greenhouses, with shade systems and ventilation, these extremes can be reduced.

In Europe we are paying restocking fees, just not overtly. I have been in the ecommerce business, and know others who have. You just mark up the goods taking into account your returned goods cost.

It’s like physical stores adding a the spread cost of shoplifting into the prices.

80% is not SOME, iT’s almost everybody, FFs sake!

75M Americans voted for a fascist piece of shit in their last election. Would it be weird if I held a grudge against white Christians in Norway because of that fact?

1st. Only some Christian denominations are fanatically pro Trump. 2nd. They are faithful, of many ethnicities. Jews are an ethnoreligious group, and in fact, while most faiths welcome converts, Judaism makes you jump through loops. Jews don’t like to welcome the non ethnically pure. This if you look at the many branches, especially the Yiddish, with their predominance of fair skin, light eyes, blonde or redhead, is very ironic, as the amount of Yiddish women who have jumped beds through history to turn Levantine populations into almost nordic, is staggering, and thus highly hypocritical.

Still cost effective

Yes they can. See Almeria, Spain. Similar to Arizona/NM weather, and as dry. Also, the Dutch do it, in climate controlled greenhouses, price competitive.

It can definitely be done.

I’m mostly on board with this, but censorship is a dangerous road to go down. Where does it stop?

In Israel (outside the numbers may differ) about 80% support the war and genocide.
