I’ve been enjoying endeavourOS for a while now. Great intro to arch and also not really all that different to Debian in day to day use. It’s nice having a more recent kernel and the NVIDIA drivers have worked flawlessly for me. It has been one of the smoothest experience out of the box next to Debian. NixOS and several others just gave me all sorts of headaches trying to make them work, the experience was subpar on this desktop build.

Their point was just that humans existed for a long time before theism was invented. Atheism is just a word to describe a lack of theism. Which there was definitely a lack of before theism existed.

Methinks homunculus is more accurate anyways.

CI and basic PR rules should gate this entirely… this should never be a problem.

Some extensions don’t work but many do, you just have to download the extension files from the marketplace website and tell VCCodium to install the extensions from those files.

If you can, a physical copy will be much better. It’s one of the few books that doesn’t translate as week to e-reader/digital for [redacted] reasons.

I should reread House of Leaves.

Your 30s will be better. Don’t get hung up on thinking your 20s are prime.

Right. In 2017 I had to buy a car and decided to go new. For $20k I got a hatchback that serves all my needs, even as a fwd vehicle. There isn’t a single EV on the market that comes close to that price, let alone in that form factor.

Edit: I should mention that this sub-compact vehicle has 150hp, 4 doors, and seatbelts for 5 (including driver). It’s an excellent family vehicle that’s very safe and would be a great learner’s car in the future. It’s even mechanically simple and easy to repair. If I could just have this exact car in an EV form that didn’t cost 2.5x as much, I would be happy to upgrade.

The moon photos they’re talking about are specifically the AI enhanced zoom moon photos of previous Samsung models that caught controversy because taking a picture of a marginally round object against a black background with their zoom enhancement would produce a moon photo even if it was in someone’s dark basement and the object was a dimly lit bottle cap.

Doesn’t help that El Niño is currently in effect, with the next several seasons predicted to be affected by it. Muddies the data, so to speak.
