Didn’t even have time to get properly set up from the looks of it.

Let’s hide our anti-air. In broad daylight. In the most obvious spot in the city. Without any effort to mask any of it. Brilliant…

Right on. Glad to know Krugman and his friends in NY are ok. But him pointing at the numbers and saying “I’m right” really just comes across as ignorant. If you’re on minimum wage and you can’t escape it, then the times are worse than ever. His PhD students are probably in that income range and earn as much as they did 10 years ago, but he got his and probably doesn’t even know hardship…

Devastating barrage by the Bradley. That grenade drop did nothing though lol

MLRS and air defense… That’s great!

That public defense is gonna be in for the case of his lifetime…

That sounds cool… Wish the article said what it does.

… 23 soldier picks up the gun of the 3rd soldier and exits the trench to conduct meat assault…

You could say, they have plenty of supplies…

5, 3, 6 are all decent.

Music by Heilung… Well, it’s a kind of healing going on…

4 anti-aircraft! Hopefully that will help the front on the left side of the river

Is that just part of the Russian operating handbook now? "How to turn your APV into a (useless) rolling bomb? Or are Russians across multiple locales just coming up with this “innovation” in parallel?

That was a lot of dudes very suddenly.

Lenovo/Thinkpad will certify certain models for use with Linux, other brands sell Linux laptops. Those are obviously good indicators that those models should be safe to choose. More generally, the more popular a model is, and the longer it’s been on the market the more likely they are to be compatible, just because they are in people’s hands and people tinker with them and add stuff to the Linux Kernel. So stay away from the latest model that is uncertified, and don’t choose the flashy, overpriced model that will see poor sales.

You might be able to find a discounted ThinkPad X12 detachable with an i5. It does not officially support Linux, but most features work, except for the volume rocker. It’s become my daily driver – really won me over. The keyboard is great btw.

I have very vague recollection of it being relevant…

Stable as in rarely crashes, or stable as in rarely changes over the years?

The LTS versions of Ubuntu are stable in the second sense, they get ten years of support but you’re stuck with old versions or (stable) programs in exchange. I also have not seen any of them experience a fatal crash, too. So stability isn’t the issue, its more about what you want to do and compatible with most recent versions of software.

“In each round Tuesday, the lowest vote-getter will be eliminated until a single candidate secures a simple majority of those in the room.”

Ranked choice, how progressive ?!

I remember the first mission of hotline Miami. You take the phone call and learn that you are supposed to kill some people. You learn how to use your guns. You kill a bunch of baddies, quite badass. Then at the end of the mission, the screen starts swaying more than usually, and the protagonist vomits in an alley. Of course, he just killed for the first time, overwhelming. Makes him quite human, more than many other protagonists, despite the pixel art style.

Start with something generic. Maybe not Ubuntu because of their recent hijinks. But something like Debian or Linux Mint. Just because it makes troubleshooting so much easier when because you can Google problems more easily.
