I might be reading to much in to the previous commenters use of the word had. But you're at arguments make a lot more sense today than 30 years ago.

It certainly was fear that stopped Australia from building a nuclear industry in the 90s. It made a lot of sense then. Today, it's hard to see it anything more as a diversionary tactic.

I've not heard of naplan described as child abuse, but my uneducated position is inclined to agree. Standardized testing, comparative ranking, ECT to me feel like necessary evils that should only be used when required, not applied board strokes.

In am interested to read more about the impacts of standardized testing if anyone is knowledgeable.

I work in a large university with a policy of lumping as many administrative duties on the academics as possible.

Why do we want professors coding credit cards to university accounts, managing employment contracts and job listing's, offices for staff, travel bookings ect ect? Is this how we want our tax payer grant money spent?

Just latex to svg your math for impress.

For real though, it's such a miss for impress to not have in line math

Not quite correct, if I remember correctly dry soil adsorbs more water and quicker (by default) than waterlogged soil. But when is been dry for a long time a hydrophobic film forms, causing a temporary delay in water adsorption. I think it can impact flash flooding, but it washes off fairly quickly and then adsorption returns to expected.

I'm not going back arch/bazzite to try this. For two reasons, 1. I can't enable those things, my hardware doesn't support reBAR. And 2. My issue sounds potentially different. I could load and run the game, but it would crash regularly. Realistically, if this is the issue my only solution is to roll back to an old kernel (not supported in arch), and I'm not sure if that fly's in bazzite either. Distro hoping to Mint is then a great solution, even if I didn't take a rational path there.

I run fedora 40 on my work laptop, and I am blow away at how capable Wayland+gnome is for plug and go multiple monitor support. You could never have done it with X, every meeting you'd want 15min to make sure you can share your screen.

Oh yeh good catch.

I can't do resizable bar, so it would have been a kernel regression to fix (if that was the issue). I think patched in next release. Although I never got any error messaging in any logs that i could see :(

The nice thing about the deck, at least from an outsiders perspective, is that everyone's got the more or less same hardware. If you have an issue most likely someone else has the same issue, and already has a fix that'll work for you.

There is a third. We are unable to grasp things we've not experienced in our lifetimes are possible. So, global famines can't happen in modern society, wealthy democratic nations don't collapse and we can't cause the extinction of our species.

Got some hard lessons coming our way

I think it you want to see the environmental benefits, is less of saving animal lives and more ensuring that 100 million animals a year never exist?

Edit: Not sure what is controversial about this. We stop eating meat to stop farming of livestock. No livestock lives are saved, just new animals aren't born into the mincer.

Slightly more context:

" "I don't know if we’re going to pull it off," he wrote, "but looking at our narrative, visual and gameplay plans, I think what we're working on now will be our best work ever." "
