The only major issue I ever had with mint running relatively old packages was when I got my current laptop. Nvidia 4060 required a really new nvidia driver, which in turn required a really new kernel. I sorted it out by adding a few unofficial repos, and it worked like a charm afterwards.

Whenever old versions are giving you grief, they can usually be sorted out in a similar manner.

Noggie here. Code dictates a minimum of 2Bar (~30psi), but it’s usually between 3-6 bar.

The pressure at my house was recently measured as I had some plumbing work done, and in my 2nd floor bathroom it clocked in at around 5 bar (75ish psi, I think)

Serve after breaking your dependencies to taste

Pretty easy. It’s not so much using intuition as it is reading step-by-step instructions. If you can use a cook book, you can install arch.

Work takes me to Houston from time to time, and I wholeheartedly agree. I would never want to live there.

It seems that whenever you find something likeable about the place, it turns out to be a product of a predatory system.

I seriously hope the workers at T.J. Birria Y Mas down in Missouri City are well paid and cared for (I doubt it), because they’re doing an awesome job and it’s hard not to love that place.

Depends what they mean by “traditionally” and its iimplications. Did it use to be Hungarian? Sure, at some point it was. So if by “traditionally” they mean “formerly”, fine. It’d be an interesting move if neighboring countries (Ukraine) agreed to this, provided that Hungary at the same time relinquished any claim on the same territory, and Orban got his tongue out of Putins ass.

After all, there are many territories that is “traditionally” part of a different country. Karelia, Königsberg, Northern Ireland, Tibet, Hawaii, just to name a few. But the world has (mostly) moved on out of pragmatism.

I loved having a Note 2 ages ago. But since then, the styluses that are paired with phones seem so awfully plastic and cheap. I use a pretty standard phone nowadays, but I’m keeping my eyes open for a phone with a good high quality stylus that has its resting place in a niche in the phone itself. Any suggestions?

I’ve seen that video too. As far as I can remember, it doesn’t show any trains, power plants, refineries, chemical plants, or pumps, and that’s where the dieselpunk aestetic really kicks in.

At least it was (mostly) dealt with. Cars generally don’t need it anymore, and the few that do can reduce engine knock through additives. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a pump offering leaded fuel.

One big exception to all of this is small general aviation aircraft. They mostly run on AVGAS100LL, but it’s not because of the planes anymore. Just like cars, the few planes that need it can use additives. But regulation for fuel standards change slowly, and ICAO moves at the pace of glacial drift.

Let’s just say that swans didn’t enjoy the human use for their necks.

Did it once after some cats pissed on them, and they started smelling 1% worse than they did from my feet alone. They ended up bent and unusable.

Note: This was probably my own fault. It was before I learned how to properly use a washing machine, so it wouldn’t surprise me if I selected too high of a temperature. I also dumble dried them, and I have no idea if that was good for them either.

This is not an answer to your question, simply because I do not have one. I just want to recommend checking out the works of Vasilij Grossman. I’m not sure how much of a true communist he was at heart, if at all, but he has a few books on the war from the Russian perspective. Considering the state of censorship in that era in USSR, I would believe his works align fairly well with official communist standpoints.

He has one book about Stalingrad (For a Just Cause), but I think that’s fiction set in a historical context. Don’t quote me on that, though, I haven’t read it myself.

I’m not 100% sure about the English title of the book by him that I have read, but I think it was “A Writer at War”. He produced it a few years after the war, compiling his notes and experiences into a proper book. It’s a really interesting read, and I highly recommend it.

Come to think of it, my kids were all born at large hospitals in large cities. The biggest expense for all of them was parking.

Can confirm with a very condensed anecdote: I once applied for a job that required engineering degree in electronics or mechanics. I’m a hischool dropout. Interview went well, and I got a job offer a month later. I got the impression that they were more interested in the right type of person with relevant hands-on experience, and in my case that experience meant IT/Linux (I was always a hobbyist geek)and being used to operating heavy machinery (Grew up on a farm).

I’m still in the same industry, and I earn more than my friends with masters degrees.

Yes. They might follow you, but that’s mostly out of curiosity and the fact that you’re tall enough to be their leader. Sometimes they might even run at you, but that’s mostly just to catch up and/or get closer - They’re not charging at you. Stop, turn around, and T-pose, and they’ll stop as well, waiting to see what you’re up to.

Cows alone are pretty chill and playful. Think of them like huge dogs, but without the instinct for hunting. If there are young ones with them you wanna give them some extra space for obvious reasons.

No. Only one, but I’m sure I’d have to deal with the same in other distros: New laptop last year with Nvidia 4060 -> Needs a relatively new driver -> needs a relatively new kernel, newer than what the OS provides as default.

I had to experiment for a while to find a combination of nvidia driver and kernel version that worked well. Took me at least a few hours to sort everything out.

Happened to my 12 year old a couple of months ago. Our hospital bill was the equivalent of ~15$. My dad went through a year of cancer treatment a little over a decade ago. His hospital bill was a jaw dropping ~15$ equivalent as well.

It keeps the hypochondriacs from wasting resources.

Yes. But that’s highly subjective, as I fucking hate Ubuntu and the direction it has taken. I don’t mind distros that are based on Ubuntu, though, so based on that I’d go for Pop rather than stock Ubuntu.

For the record, I run LMDE as my daily driver.
