Do you think actual sponsored accounts/bots or just indoctrinated people?

That's my main gripe with the article. The term is used by right leaning people exclusively so just its usage hints that the speaker has racist, homophobic or xenophobic views.

Wait, why literals? Could you not have just Some, without quotes? Or does this syntax imply that enums use these constants as variant tags?

Re: the pipe symbol - i wanted to also use this syntax but have decided against because pipes just looked stranger than commas.

I know that Zuckerberg does things that harm society as a whole, but just changing bathroom amenities is not fascist.

This is degrading the meaning of the word.

Although, musk did start with small steps too and I would consider musk aligned with fascists, based solely on his recent remark regarding eu politics.

 

An interesting take. Not sure if it goes here.

Can someone explain why this is bad? It seems like normal behaviour of corporations.

Or has spotify previously committed to being a fair market?

Don't call it "free", it sounds like you are so out of touch with reality that you don't know that healthcare has costs.

The word is "universal". In my country, I paying for healthcare, but not as much as wealthly people here do. That's the main argument for it: the rich subsidize healtcare for the poor.

Siberians, lol

They would not like being called that

 

I'd expect the state to have a list of all its citizens and their basic personal info (age) which could be used to determine their eligibility for voting. In my country, we get a "invitation" to the vote, with your voter station and info on how to change it.

Instead, I'm seeing posts about USA's "voter rolls", which are sometimes purged, which prevents people from voting. Isn't this an attack on the voting system and democracy itself?

So why doesn't USA have a list of voters? Are they stupid?

 

I know that the answer is yes, I should, but outlets near the setup are not grounded (even though they look like they are) and I don't want to have wires running though my living room.

The real question is what are potential problems ? Occasional system reboots? Permanent damage to PSU? Permanent damage to other components?

 
 

I'll just come out and say it: 50W. I know, I know an order of magnitude above what's actually needed to host websites, media center and image gallery.

But it is a computer I had on-hand and which would be turned on a quarter of the day anyway. And these 50W also warm my home, although this is less efficient than the heat pump, of course.

What's your usage? What do you host?

 

It seems like the nodes I find using wishbone are small and underwater. Are they even worth it?
