The Treasury has run this program for years, and people have donated $67.3 million since 1996

You don't need a gaming specific distro. Those just mean some apps are pre-intalled, like Steam and Heroic (for GOG, Epic, Amazon games). If you like Fedora, keep using Fedora, it games just as well as any other distro.

Nice!

If someone is going the wrong way down a one-way, you really want to know about them.

Nice hits!

the Pentagon has told Switzerland it will delay a previously agreed-upon delivery

Yeah, ASUS is in an awful state. Their Armory Crate malware* really just takes the cake on the whole thing.

*It literally survives through a full format and will run and create popups on your computer without any human interaction if you buy an ASUS motherboard. It's malware.

China's birthrate is 1.15 children per woman. Replacement birthrate is 2.1 children per woman.

If each woman is having less than 2.1 children, the population falls.

Heavily underutilized for now.

China has a birthrate of 1.15 children per woman. When is this later time you allude to when there will be more people to utilize the heavily underutilized network?

China has quite a number of trains already. Arguably they overbuilt their train network as much of it is heavily underutilized.

Better than VII!

Please go submit yourself to the agency for anti-aging research. The world needs you!

I would be surprised if they didn't have a fragmentation warhead in them as it would increase their effectiveness significantly. Even if their primary goal is to bash things, a small fragmentation warhead is still incredibly helpful.

As a life-long Windows user, Linux Mint's Cinnamon UI feels very at-home. Hell, it feels more at-home than Win 11's UI, since Win 11's UI has so many weird choices and unnecessary changes from prior OSes.

for a stat collector this may be an impossible ask

I would put ChromeOS in it's own category just because it is so different than the other Linux variants, just as MacOS is so different than the rest.

Windows, Linux, MacOS, ChromeOS

The main goal is to stop people from dying with hopes of making the stopping of the dying permanent. Considering Russia wants all of Ukraine and Ukraine obviously doesn't want to be taken over by Russia, there isn't much middle ground to build upon a ceasefire.

The best way to ensure peace is to give Ukraine the tools they need to repel the invader. Secondary tariffs on anyone helping Russia is certainly helpful in repelling the invader.

A lighthouse uses the same lens, just with the light coming from the inside. Since this is old knowledge, what is the drawback? Why isn't this widespread?

My completely uninformed guess:

• The lens and assembly costs too much compared to just more solar panels
• The lens/panel combo is so bulky/prone to failure it becomes unreasonable to actually install/use.

Are the cops in the US really that bad?

News items are news because they are rare. The US amplifies it's negatives in search of eyeballs and in search of fixing problems. The average officer is average, not the extreme you see on the news.

Intel has always been a two cookie company

Intel sat on 4 cores with exceptionally high power usage for a decade while everyone was screaming for more. This resulted in Apple starting up their own damn chip business, and AMD smashing through the wall with 6, 8, 12, and 16-core chips available to the masses; and core counts requiring a third damn digit if you go server. Furthermore, Intel's process node is woefully behind TSMC's.

Intel sat on their laurels and are getting shat on from all angles now.

I think Fabled is using 'Moisturefox' as a stand-in for all Firefox forks, with Waterfox being the primary basis for the stand-in.
