You mean old Ubuntu?

Do you want cats on your desk? Cause that’s how you get cats on your desk.

I fixed a boot issue from the grub command line for the first time.

If Christians could agree with each other about what’s in the bible, history would be a lot more boring.

In Lom Stave Church, a Norwegian church from the 12th century, there are Nordic runes carved into the wooden wall, right below the ceiling.

They read:
“I was here, all the way up in the corner.”

“If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying ‘End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH’, the paint wouldn’t even have time to dry.”

– Terry Pratchett, in The Thief of Time

The Christian explanation for this is that god doesn’t do evil, people do.
And god created people with free will to do evil. If he made people stop doing evil deeds, they would be his puppets, not free-willed humans. So he has the power to end all evil but chooses not to.

Now as for why god allows natural disasters, diseases and other tragedies to befall his creation – again, that’s just the consequence of our actions, cause a woman gave an apple to her man in the past.

My bank requires a second factor for everything done over the web instance. That second factor is either an app or a hardware token generator you have to buy seperately.

Monosodium glutamate

Transaction number. It’s a second factor for authentication of basically everything you want to do while banking online.
Most people use a phone app for it (which doesn’t reliably work on degoogled and rooted phones), but you also have the choice of buying a dedicated TAN generator device, so people without smartphones can use online banking.

Things I need from the Play Store are:

• Banking App
• Banking TAN App
  I downloaded them using the Aurora store and although they complain about missing play services on every startup, they work without them.

Things I don’t need, but use (installed in the same way and run without play services):

• App from my country’s train service
• App from my carsharing service
• Netflix
• Spotify
  I could run those in a browser, but I don’t see what the big difference would be. They run without play services.

So luckily, in Germany, you can live without Google. Nothing actually requires it.

No, the French are always revolting.

Which they did on purpose, so you can’t use the recorded song commercially.

Framework’s choice for display isn’t Linux compatible.

They really should have set the option Make_Discord_Blurry_On_Framework_Laptops to "false" in the Linux kernel.

Puzzled BC wildlife ecologist can’t keep the bears from shitting in his microwave at night, further research is needed.

Every car you could buy in the past 20 (probably 30) years had a computer system, because you can’t meet emissions regulations without fuel injection.
In Europe, the Dacia Sandero base model is a car that literally only comes with what’s needed to drive or mandated by law.
The previous generation was still available with wind-up windows, no power steering and no radio.

I don’t know about any offerings in the US market.

For that, they’d have to develop an entirely new engine, which they then couldn’t sell in Europe, America, Australia or most of Asia due to emissions regulations. So maybe they’re doing it, but it will be a one-off prestige project at the end of the internal combustion engine age, and all of them will be put in museums or private collections.

If that’s the child’s name, you have no one to blame but yourself, and are probably underqualified for handling a butter knife.

The minimum would be something like punting your kid to the orbit of Venus for a gravity assist that takes it to one of the outer planets where another gravity assist can push it to the edge of the solar system.
Out there, the angular momentum of the orbiting child will be very low and can be canceled out by a small thrust.
The child will then fall back into the sun. But this requires remote controlled thrusters strapped to the child. And a life support system if you want your child to actually die by burning in the sun. And then, the child will be well into their teens by the time they reach it.

When did the ships from OP’s math question turn into sailboats?
