Where Linux?
(I might be open to allowing all memes related to the F/LOSS world even if not directly related to Linux... but you'll have to convince me.)
It's called the Milwaukee protocol, and it's considered to be a failure.
The patient is put in a medically induced coma and treated with strong antiviral medication until the natural immune system can produce antibodies, but even a successful treatment doesn't guarantee survival. Also, the debilitating neural damage. Honestly, I might still prefer a morphine overdose.
There were cases where symptomatic patients survived, but the number is in the lower single digits and they all suffered debilitating neural damage. I wouldn't call it recovery, no.
The immunoglobulin treatment aims to eliminate the pathogen before it can infect the nervous system. Once that happens, once the headaches start, it's game over.
These keyboard warriors don't understand how fucked up rabies can get. ~~Near~~ 100% fatal once the infected becomes symptomatic, and it's probably one of the worst disease-related deaths I can imagine. I'd rather take a cyanide pill.
I live near a forest where the fox population had to be culled because of the potential contact between humans or their pets and infected animals. There were billboards and television announcements that warned against approaching a wild animal that is acting friendly because it's an indicator of infection.
It has an i9 10980, so about 4-5 years old. It was built before I was hired.
It was also supposed to be an all-in-one recording/streaming computer for university events, and they had to use the budget for something. It ended up being used as a proxmox host for a while, then it was handed off to me. Now the most resource-intensive thing it runs is a Windows 11 VM that I ~~torture mercilessly~~ use for experiments. It rarely gets to 10% memory utilization.
Try realizing ten thousand mesh instances in Blender and watch that sucker eat the rest of your RAM like it's got a pebble in its shoe.
I did that on my work PC with 128 GB memory (originally built for esports shit) and it still wasn't enough.
It depends.
For my work computer, I screw them in tight, both on the monitor and the DP/VGA adapter.
For stationary devices (like overhead projectors) and extension cords, I screw them in, but not very tight.
For classroom computers, I only screw them in on the monitor and leave them unscrewed on the computer. Students can't keep their legs calm and often snag the cables. I prefer to let the connectors harmlessly disconnect instead of damaging the graphics card or motherboard.
Self-hosters:
This is a simple shader node group that breaks up the visual repetition of tiled textures. It uses a Voronoi texture's cell colors to apply a random translation and/or rotation to an image texture's vector input to produce an irregular pattern.
I primarily made it for landscape materials. The cells' borders are still sharp, so certain materials, like bricks, wood, or fabric, will not look good.

It's a poor imitation. A mockery of the name. A GUI addict's idea of a CLI tool.
Not entirely accurate, the person on the side track should be a pile of money, but I'm too lazy to change it now. Also, imagine, like, flames coming from the bottom-right corner.
Some things are just universally true.
The Middle East has been cooking for so long, it's impossible to point at a faction that is the "Good Guys". But right now, one faction is hell-bent on exterminating another nation's people, both military and civilian, so it should be pretty fucking obvious who the worst "Bad Guys" are. There are no good guys, only victims.
You should read Ramzi Yousef's statement at his 1998 trial. Terrorist factions like Hezbollah and Hamas exist only because Israel is consistently refusing to make peace through diplomacy.
