How about dual boot, but the Windows OS is never online?

I used to be Linux only, but after I’ve got a new machine with Win11 preinstalled, I went dual boot " justfor now until I got all my apps running on Linux". Well, it’s been a while and I still didn’t figure out how to run some apps, so dual boot turned out to be a bit more permanent.

However, since I don’t have WiFi and Windows starts sucking my mobile data once connected, I established a strict ‘Windows must never be connected to my hotspot’ policy. So it never updates.

I still plan to go back to Linux only, because I just like open source and dislike Windows for spyware and thinking it would be smarter than the user (which in my case is probably true, but still, I take my pride in being able to screw up my own OS if I make a mistake). But at the moment I’m out of ideas for certain things not running on Linux, so my machine is still punished with a secundary Win OS.

It won’t help, the other lobster has diabetes, so it pisses with an accent.

So that’s about 13,000 homo sapiens mothers?

Wait, wtf? Mouth dry! Mouth dry!

I actually watched that episode last night, so that post was kinda jumping at me. What are the odds…

Sagan, a real teacher. Not only smart, there are quite a few smart people. But also able to make something complicated easily understood. To make something abstract sound straight. To make something minds can’t grasp comprehensible. A beautiful ability!

Interesting, thank you for the reply! Learned something new today. The lines I see span over a quarter or so of the moon, so I’m not fully convinced yet. Absolute massive.

Ah, this is probably the right community to ask.

What are those stripes leading to the crater, here in the upper left?

I’ve noticed them before, but when I try looking it up, I usually only find results for Saturn’s moon.

Beautiful picture, op!

It’s not any snake, but some species that are adapted to living on trees. It’s also not really flying. Gliding would describe what they do better. As they jump, they flatten their body and make slither movements through the air, gliding maybe at a 45 angle downwards.

Aren’t these changes, because there are just have bones to look at, so skin properties etc are a guessing game?

But how did that jaw bone double in length in 2001? Was the skull a missing part until then?

The other 3% probably aren’t all climate change deniers.

I would guess that a large chunk of those are more like ‘the data is not sufficient or good enough to be absolutely, absolutely certain’.

Totally agree. I just witnessed my sister delivering her baby a few days back.

I’m curious. What happens to the medium? Does it simply get pushed aside? Or pushed along? Or will it eat up some energy and react to something else?

And more. Major river discharge can raise the sea level in the area. Then big circular currents similar like when you stirr your cup of coffee or tea. Or chocolate milk 🤤

😁 whooopsie! Haha. Yeah, it’s somewhat 6000 km I mean. Sorry for my stupidity here today… Thank you very much for explaining my dumb mistake instead of making fun! Time to sleep now, I guess. Thank you!

I am fairly sure Earth’s radius is somewhat 6 km, so something with an 48 km radius would be 42 km above Earth’s surface, where we experience 1 G.

Can you explain please, where I made a mistake?

Not OP. What would evaporate?

I think we don’t know anymore what’s going on with Richard. I believe he would consume Earth almost instantly, including all satellites and maybe the moon.

Didn’t do the math myself, but internet says 1 G would be at about 48 km radius.

I hope I just had bad experience, but I have the aqua with backlight. About 2 years in, the display got terrible; hardly any contrast, especially in the edges. About 3 years in, the rubber buttons just crumbled away; so no more waterproof.

Can’t read anyways anymore, the contrast by now is like egg white on snow white. Didn’t mistreat, it was always stored dry and in no direct sunlight.

I was thinking:

“Hey boss, got the mine setup, should I do camouflage?”

“Nah, we’re low on explosives and tools. Throw on some tin roofs and let the government help us blast mine”

The exercise […] will include Cambodian, Lao, Malaysian, Thai and Vietnamese forces.

These women are incredibly courageous!

Last year I thought these people stand no chance against the governmental oppression and that the protests will fade.

But it appears I underestimated how strong and brave Persian women fight back!

This news story warms my heart.
