Yeah and good luck mentioning that macOS is UNIX.

So, start a few minutes before midnight, get in 50 laps, then 50 the next day.
France made a big mistake to go all in.
Not only does Germany import electricity from France (which comes from…?), but Germany has (according to this) a substantially higher carbon footprint per capita.
If the only issue is cost and projects taking longer than expected, isn’t that a good tradeoff for carbon neutral power?
And yes, of course, I would prefer renewables, you would prefer renewables, we all would. But it’s somewhat disingenuous to decry the use of nuclear, advocate for renewables, and at the same time, rely heavily on coal, as Germany does (or at the very least, did recently.
I’m not a big fan

I see what you did there.
AFAIK in the USA, nuclear energy is the safest per unit energy generated. Solar is more “dangerous” simply because you can fall off a roof.
Nuclear energy has huge risks and potential for safety issues, yes. But sticking to the numbers, it is extremely safe.
Microwaves aren’t resonant or anything fancy — they’re just dielectric heating.
IIRC mine (as an employee, not HR) verified some stuff on my CV (education details I think).
Yeah, I feel like the right has such a black-and-white/zero nuance view of things. So then the left goes and does the same thing!
My sense is that these A*AB movements are really trying to say, “the institution of X is fundamentally flawed,” and that’s something I agree with definitely. But it’s worded provocatively, which is just…assinine. Like, the little old lady who would be priced out of her home if not for renting out a room to a college kid, below market value? Yeah total bastard…
AFAIK in the USA you can’t have the main batteries be replaceable (I think an aux battery for wireless functions is allowed…).
EDIT: I seem to be thinking of California, maybe not all of US.
What country? AFAIK in the US you can’t make the batteries replaceable. If they are wirelessly linked they can have auxiliary batteries for that, but (I believe) that’s different than the main battery…
EDIT: I seem to be thinking of California, maybe not all of US.
If you can get to work on city streets, there’s a good chance you can bike or take public transportation. Nothing evil about that!
We really need to see info from the BIOS — exact CPU model, RAM speed, etc.
As others have pointed out, this is a pretty anachronistic build — i586 with DDR1 is just weird, so it’s possible there’s some really niche hardware and you may need an exotic kernel (or kernel options) to get anything to boot.
That said: have you just tried running a standard live or install CD from that time period? You could try booting a 2001 Slackware installer to see what happens.
Especially “it’s” — it makes sense that “the thing that belongs to ‘it’” would be “it’s,” but of course, possession wrt pronouns is weird.
Whoa, I used Slackware for basically that same time frame (IBM — not Lenovo — ThinkPad 600e, which was pretty ancient even at the time). Good stuff!
Can you post the CPU info? I think it should be available from the BIOS.
A French court has ordered Google, Cloudflare, and Cisco to poison their DNS resolvers…
There’s an audio illusion that’s somewhat analogous to the barber pole illusion — instead of a pattern which appears to always go up or down, you can have a sound which seems to always go up or down in pitch: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shepard_tone
Please be direct and stop beating around the Bush.
I’d definitely recommend getting a credit report (not from the websites that advertise with an insane jingle, but from the actual credit bureaus — you’re entitled to a free report). Mine had debt from a relative with a similar name; I was able to get that removed. They will also tell you in more detail what goes in to calculating it.
I agree that it’s not perfect, and often very opaque, but you should be able to get some understanding of why she doesn’t have good credit.
Yeah only makes sense if you call it “desktop *NIX dominance” or maybe just “non-Windows dominance.”
