They’re impressive. And operating systems have come a long way. I think software has to catch up before this can happen.

I really want to see servers running more efficient architecture.

Legitimate question… I thought Operation Paperclip just brought over the Nazi scientists after WWII? What am I missing? We’re there politicians or other Nazi party members included?

That makes more sense, I didn’t realize it affected intelligence communities as well.

This is a fantastic write up of the problems we are facing in the US automotive market. Broken regulations incentivize large trucks/SUV’s, including for electric vehicles.

Smaller vehicles use less energy. Smaller vehicles cause less road wear. Smaller vehicles are fine for most use cases - but I recognize not all use cases. Smaller vehicles cause less damage in collusions to other cars and pedestrians.

I’m not saying to take away any options… But let’s stop incentivizing the wasteful and start incentivizing the efficient. I as a consumer would love to see more small car options for selfish reasons. They handle better and are more fun to drive.

Agreed, IaC has helped that process a lot. I just used to curse.

I’m personally using Mint for this exact purpose. It just works and I don’t have to think about it much.

I love Mint for the simplicity. My only complaint is the lack of Wayland support for cinnamon.

Nor should it be.
