OrderS of magnitude? How heavy does this guy think we are?

Yeah, adding a separate microarchitecture like amd64v3 would be a separate item. They might be able to do that with amd64v3 overlay repos that only contain packages that most benefit from the newer microarchitecture.

My laptop had 2 USB4 with type C connectors, a USB 3.2 type A connector and a USB 3.2 type C connector, but recently it's had an HDMI connector instead of the 3.2 type C.

It's a distilled version that becomes a potion in your stomach. There are several versions of this, my favourite of which is "instant bubbling potion, just add water"

Advocating against voting for Democrats, no matter what the particular language, is advocating for actions that will increase the chances of Trump getting elected, of Republicans having majorities and of Israel's further escalation in Palestine, in addition to all the other bad things Republicans will do.

The time to move Democrats on the issues is not now. Those times were during the primaries (in which I voted uncommitted on the presidential level and for pro-palestinian candidates on other levels) and after the election through things like lobbying.

If there are particular third-party candidates who have any reasonable chance of winning rather than being a spoiler (I don't know of any), it's reasonable to advocate to their electorate that one vote for them instead of the Democratic candidate. However, if one supports Palestinians and opposes genocide, the best vote in the presidential election and in most national or state elections on November 5 is for the Democratic candidate. That's not a "vote blue no matter who" opinion or an "all you need to do is vote for the Dems" opinion. It's harm reduction in the short term so that we can ensure that there actually are medium and long terms for as many people as possible.

By the way, this is "new MADrid," not (as one would expect) "new madRID."

The grizzly bear is Ursos arctos horribilis, which translates as "horrible bear bear."

They don't need to light your way for you though - they just need to be visible at a reasonable distance (~20 m), which 300 lm is fine for in most conditions.

This is great to see! We need more green energy all over, and rooftop solar is one of the easiest places to do it.

I think this is a net positive, but I really wish this had more housing and less surface parking. I'd love to see the city start requiring that new developments have most of their parking underground.

 

Spot the deep cuts.

 

I have to say, Socotra is my favourite coffee shop in A2, and yet the Daily doesn't even mention it.
