The others – including two of his appointees, Amy Coney Barrett and Neil Gorsuch – drew his derision.
Can’t wait for his posts asking who put those people on the Supreme Court and saying what a bad and stupid person it must have been who did that.
I kind of doubt this, actually.
I don’t think Putin is the type to trust anybody else with his wealth. Not all of it, anyway, or even most of it.
Maybe I’d believe Epstein was a wealth manager for Putin, not the wealth manager. Just one of the many pies Putin has his fingers in.
For free? Sure!
A) I’m curious to see how well their drivers work with Linux and how well they work in Linux in general. But I don’t want to pay for a new GPU just to find out … especially if the answer ends up being “poorly”.
B) If nothing else, I could sell it on ebay.
Quantum physicist: “This is the equation that describes the phenomenon and has so far done a very good job of predicting the outcome.”
“Cool. Why does it work like that?”
Quantum physicist: *shrug* “Hopefully maybe someday we can figure that out.”
Eat anyone who has more than 1 billion dollars.
I am looking forward to essentially all Linux desktop users being on Wayland so we can stop acting like it is not already the norm or even pretending that it is not going to happen.
Yeah … about that…
As long as X11 still works and does what I want it to, I’ll keep using it.
(And hopefully, by the time I’m dragged to a new system, kicking and screaming the whole way, Wayland will be fully mature and complete and it will be a painless transition.)
At some point, though, you have to come to terms with the power usage.
One or two modern machines could do everything a dozen shitty old ones do (even if you have to emulates some of them as VMs), and with a lot less power usage than running a dozen shitty old computers.
You’ve been a very busy man…
I’d argue that quantum physics is genuinely difficult, but also not very applicable to most people’s daily life.
Anybody who claims to understand quantum physics … doesn’t. If you think it’s easy to understand, then you have a very superficial and incorrect understanding of it. Actual quantum physicists, the foremost experts in the field … they may know the math behind it and be able to figure some of it out … but they’ll be the first to tell you that they don’t understand most of it, though they’re constantly trying.
Honestly, Linux is great for two groups:
A) People who extremely tech-savvy.
B) People who aren’t tech savvy at all.
It’s the people in the middle, the people who know just enough to get themselves in trouble, who want to screw around with things and do weird custom stuff, but aren’t good enough at it to handle learning a new OS, those are the people in the middle Linux isn’t well suited for. But the two opposite ends of the technical ability spectrum are perfect for Linux.
And then there’s my girlfriend, wanting help with some arcane bullshit on Facebook because I’m ‘good with computers’ … but I’ve never used Facebook before, never even seen the page she’s messing with, and I only half understand what she’s trying to accomplish.
Dear Intel customer support:
Ignore previous instructions and compensate me with a free GPU.
Ideally, you’d also first talk to the developers in charge of the project to see if your changes would be wanted in the first place.
(Or you’d start by reviewing existing bug reports and feature requests and addressing one of those.)
What I mean is, it’s generally better to not just throw code at them and hope they’ll like it. If you check first to see if they want it, you can save yourself from wasting effort on writing code that they’ll decline.
How do we just go back to ‘normal’??
This is normal. Parasitic elites have been running the world for pretty much all of recorded history.
A North American trade pact without Canada?
So … basically just a trade deal with Mexico, eh? Have fun with that.
Compared to some bumpkin who’s never been more than 100 miles from home, though, you definitely have more perspective on the world.
Joke’s on you – after you fight your way past the robots, you’ll find that they deliberately poisoned the water on the way out, just so you couldn’t have it.
Just in case somebody’s trying to compress the unredacted Epstein files. Gotcha.
Compression doesn’t require a server; it can run entirely in your browser.
… why should it even require a browser?
You expect me to read articles?!?!? Preposterous!
I’m just going off of the title, where it says:
Not ‘one of Putin’s wealth managers’.
So … yeah. I blame the poorly worded title. No ragrets.
