Keep going. Update your grid and work on improving storage. You'll finish way faster than any molten salt fission pipe-dream, that's for sure.

We certainly do _not_ have a lack of Windowmanagers in the open source world. And the presentation looks suspiciously like yet another WM. Does it have decent defaults and clipboard management that isn't a complete mess and/or broken? Does it have a proper feature complete file and font manager? What about icon management? Those would be my number one distinctions between a simple WM and a DE. And I seriously doubt that this is one delivers on those accounts.

Notch up half-assed FOSS WM #531 I guess. Yes?

... has found a good way and place to deal with their nuclear waste.

... other than the chinese. MKBHDs review of the Xiaomi SU7 is a real eye opener. If this really is the new bar for cars and not just China trying to get some stop on deflation. then it's certainly not just the US car industry that is in deep trouble.

This is a real problem. Imagine an AI computer virus swarm, with "Brain Bug" leader AIs building and releasing swarms of tailor-made virii to achieve certain hacking goals at a pace no human team of network admins can keep track of.

Hard cryptographic human-controlled Ident/Auth/Auth, encryption and signage is very quickly going to become a real necessity.

... in font form. ... Errm, ... WTF?!??

IMHO TNR and Calibri are both shite, but I can see why one would want to go back to a decades old standerd.
As for calling Calibri "woke" - is this Rubio guy on crack?

Nuclear Fission isn't cost effective ... _unless_ you price in the full eco-balance of electricity production. Then the numbers look significantly different and fission could just be a real thing once again. At least until renewables and energy storage have gained significant portions of the energy mix.

The key part is pricing in the eco-balance of electricity and all other forms of energy and processed goods before doing anything else, like rebuilding fission. Until you do that, ecological damage will always be an unpriced externality and the market price will never reflect the real damage done and your math on fission will always come up short. Example: Meat and Smartphones would be roughly 4x in cost of what they cost today if the eco-balance were priced in correctly. And that's all we would need to do to fix our environmental problems in record speed.

... in more detail.

US college is a joke, especially to young men. Raw deals left, right and center. You're more likely to get your life ruined by a guilty-until-proven-innocent sexual harassment accusation than finding a mate "for life" that isn't saddled with obscene amounts of debt like you are, ready to bail out once you've paid through the nose for both of you.

US colleges now trying to be "places of connection" for young men has to be the biggest joke of todays age of misandry and man-bashing.

If I were a young man in the US, college would be the very last place I'd be looking for connection these days. And for just about everything else - highly specialized degrees in engineering, CompSci, physics, chemistry and such aside - I'd steer just as clear from US colleges. As a regular young guy without huge amounts of money to burn you're way better off learning and working a trade than going to college these days.

Laughably overpriced US colleges are going the way of the Dodo, and they're feeling it. That's what this recent change of mind is all about, nothing more.

... and that somebody as omnipresent as an LLM-bot would influence those way more effectively than a regular human should be of no big surprise.

Just what US for-profit college needs. Great.

... complete retard in that way.

Disclaimer: German here.

German carmakers today are precisely at where US car-makers where in the mid to late 60ies: aloof, disconnected and arrogant, relying to much on brand-recognition to pull off non-sense like planned obsolescence or subscriptions for your heated seats.

Thank you for pointing out these "minor details" of this "nuclear-fission-including-all-of-its-problems on steoroids".

Fortran has some optimizations involving pointers that are invalid in other languages like C. So it can be the absolute fastest outside of hand optimized assembly (which is very difficult to do better than a compiler these days). It also has advanced math libraries which are highly tested and optimized. So its niche is highly performant math and scientific programming.
