Just make sure everyone is using the same units ...

He planned at losing, but being the colossal loser he is...he accidentally snatched victory from the jaws of defeat. He's such a loser he can't even lose right.

Do you people even listen to yourselves?

It was an unusual campaign in that 95% of campaign promises weren't not just unfulfilled but 180* opposite of policy. Ultimate con man.

But now that Philippines is nearly out of oil China has made overtures to take care of their oil needs which have been defacto accepted.

The quid pro quo isn't stated yet but US caused their oil crisis so this announcement isn't real.

What an odd thing to say.

I rip my DVD and Bluray discs to a NAS and play them with Jellyfin. There's not even an optical player near a TV anymore. The last one died in about 2008.

But I have put some of those files on USB before for the kids.

Used Blurays are about $5 usually and much better quality than any streaming service rental.

The Onn is an excellent device for the money and most questionable aspects can be disabled or piholed. Jellyfin and SmartTube and Projectivy are all fine.

I should go see if LineageOS has added any new low-power devices in the past year. That's the best option but nothing supported was for sale when I last looked.

Exactly.

Somebody said they spent a lot of time and money coming up with a new "nonbinary" mascot.

I started using Firefox over 20 years ago and never had any idea whether the fox was male or female. Since thunderbirds are fictional I'm not sure about the sexual dimorphism of their plumage.

It's hard to understand how they think these days. At least Ladybird will offer a second rendering engine when the bubble pops. Engineering-focused software organizations used to be the norm.

I guess a Ladybird is a female, not that it matters at all. The AI should have Majel Barret's voice anyway.

Posting since it was only in the footnotes.

15W might be good for use cases where n1x0 are a bit slow.

I'd consider a mini pc with one of these for kiosk-type applications. I have an n100 platform that gets maxed out with about 8 4K streams running. Would be nice to bump those up to 12 streams without much more power.

The iGPU code for ffmpeg is pretty good.

Hopefully these move beyond laptops later in the year.

Then they lament, "Those frelling Humpback whales probably got it."

The people at Microsoft who wanted more universal telemetry and activity data, even for non-Microsoft software?

I liken it to telemetry that can apply to all software / activities on a system - even third-party software - w/o having embed telemetry in any software. Simply screenshot things every few seconds and scan the images with OCR and/or "AI". Truly a horrible situation for the end-users.

And that would be bad why? Sure, Debian moves more slowly than Ubuntu, but but they're also not all-in on Snap. I'll take stability over cutting-edge for most things, especially if things that need more frequent (security) updates, like Firefox and Thunderbird, are also available - as packages. Also, don't most fixes from Ubuntu (and others) eventually get pushed upstream to Debian anyway?

Some colos don't even provide v6 yet.

Some ISP's still don't suport it.

Some classes of network gear only recently got hardware v6 support. Older gear still in service pushes v6 onto the CPU. Probably why those colos and ISP's don't support it.

And I still see important v6 fixes coming in hardware changelogs, mostly on the LAN management stacks (neighbor discovery, mDNS, etc.)

That said, the pieces are finally coming together in the past two years, roughly.

I would bet 2030* will see v6 at around 75% of traffic as that old gear is tricked out and the stacks wind up in maintenance mode.

At home I actually have more light bulbs on v6 than desktops, but that'll change when my switches get too old and tired. I could replace them all right now to change but there would be no benefit to me for dropping three to four grand. None of my home use cases would benefit.

* 2038 if the politicians do actually create a global depression which is looking increasingly likely

Maybe Trump is just making good on promises to U.S. oil executives/companies -- first killing wind farms and subsidies/credits for renewables and now hampering middle-east oil production and shipments. /cynical

Trump pressed oil executives to give $1 billion for his campaign

They do (cynically) understand profit margins though and trucks, SUVs, and muscle cars are more profitable than smaller, economic cars - not only in sales, but maintenance too.

They're pissing on 'you' and telling you it's raining, if the summary is correct.

It usually follows the business model collapsing and precedes a fork and the original just going into support.
