“It was $2.99 when I picked it up.”

Watch a product for a minutes, clock the lowest it displays in that time, run in and grab it, “It was $2.99.”

Repeat for all 30 items in your cart just to annoy the store.

“…Employees worked at a faster pace, took on a broader scope of tasks, and extended work into more hours of the day, often without being asked to do so,” Ye and Ranganathan wrote of their in-progress research.

Every boss: $$$$$$$$

The year of the AI PC comes immediately after the year of the linux desktop.

What the fuck is this stupid law? An actress can consent to film a nude scene, but if you share the scene she filmed for you to watch, you’ve somehow violated her moral rights?

That’s a bit like asking, “Can you point me toward a beginner friendly car that has air conditioning and a radio?” You’re going to get 100 different answers because there are a hundred different distros that do all the things. The differences between them are small and not really of interest to a new user.

So I’ll give you a general rundown of the names you’ll probably see:

• Ubuntu: The classic recommended option and the most used worldwide. Though they’re corporate run and occasionally makes weird decisions that piss off the linux community, so you won’t see it mentioned as much as it was 10 years ago.
• Kubuntu: An Ubuntu flavor with a very customizable Windows-like desktop that should feel very comfortable for new users.
• Linux Mint: Essentially decorporatized Ubuntu with their own custom Windows-like desktop. It’s often the go-to recommendation to new users now, though I’ve personally never tried it.
• Pop!_OS: Basically Ubuntu with NVIDIA drivers enabled by default, so it positions itself as a gaming distro.
• Zorin: Another Ubuntu clone that tries to look as much like Windows as possible for new users.
• Fedora: A more frequently updated distro, which is appealing to those with newer hardware. A little less straightforward for new users but still not super challenging.
• Nobara: Pop!_OS except for Fedora.
• Bazzite: An immutable Fedora distro (meaning you can’t edit the underlying filesystem,) making it behave more like a consoles. Honestly, immutable distros are a niche in linux so you should probably avoid it as a new user, but you’ll see it listed as it has some diehard fans.
• Arch: A DIY distro for enthusiasts and tinkerers with very frequent updates, so good for newer hardware.

But again, they’re all like 95% the same as each other. I’d just pick between Kubuntu or Mint, maybe Pop!_OS if you don’t feel like going into a menu and enabling NVIDIA drivers.

Sure, but it’s not hard to install widevine in Chromium and it’ll be auto updated through whatever package manager you use to install it.

Why not just use Chromium?

Roku Channel is also ad-free with PiHole.

Yep. I assume since Candy Crush hasn’t been culturally relevant for like 10 years that it’s on its last leg anyway and this is a desperate attempt to prop up a dying company. Though I’m afraid to check though because I don’t want to see that it’s still posting record profits year after year.

“Most of level design has been wiped, which is crazy since they’ve spent months building tools to craft levels quicker,” said one employee. “Now those AI tools are basically replacing the teams. Similarly, the copywriting team is completely removing people since we now have AI tools that those individuals have been creating.”

Is that surprising? All along these developers have been training their replacement.

iOS is adding the menu transparency that desktops have had for over 15 years. Android is adding AI. They are both just adding things that people already use and are calling them new.

Misleading title. The technique does not prevent all hereditary disease.

DNA from both parents can be injected into a donor egg, which uses the donor’s mitochondria. This is used to keep a child from inheriting a mitochondrial disease from the mother. These are the specific set of hereditary diseases this technique prevents.

All other hereditary diseases are not prevented by this.

can we really trust a “black box” algorithm with our lives?

No. That’s why we have clinical trials.
