As with all new inventions/procedures, this is just the first step. The process will become faster and more efficient in the future.

In my opinion, this is a great first step towards a Star Trek-like hypospray.

Proxmox to the rescue.

Well, you get what you pay for. It's very cheap for a reason: you are the product.

I got an Apple TV in 2018 and it's still working perfectly. Yes, it was expensive, but it has no ads, it's still fast and responsive, and it still gets updates.

Because of Valve, Linux is finally my main OS. I'm a PC gamer and it was a pain in the ass to dual-boot between Windows and Linux.

Poor Linda Yaccarino (current CEO of Twitter). She must be wondering what in the actual ### did I get myself into...

But this worse than enshitification. These games are not free. There shouldn't be ads in paid games.

Yes, but where there's a will, there's a way. Analysts say these sanctions will backfire because now China has no choice but to become more advanced in chip production.

On the contrary, AI specialists are in high demand and will be hired by Google, Microsoft and other companies within minutes.

Indeed. I always read in forums people asking if NMS is worth playing now. Imagine if it had a great launch from the beginning. It would've been much more successful and wouldn't have a bad reputation like it does know.

Regular plasma customizable widgets. That's the beauty of KDE.

What you're seeing are outliers. Take a look at this list of coalition governments: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_with_coalition_governments

There are plenty of functioning European countries (since we're talking about the US) that have functioning and "normal" coalition governments.

It also depends on the parties that won and the system used to elect these officials. For example, if the most left-wing party came first, but the other two centrist parties came second and third, if the most left-wing party wants to govern, it will have no choice but to make some concessions in order to govern and put policies on the table that all parties will agree to.

We need to get away from American politics and look at how coalition governments work elsewhere in the world. Yes, they can be messy, but it forces the parties to sit down and TALK to each other and make some concessions to make it work.

Just like marriage. Both people are no longer single. They are now living together, they have to make concessions and agree on a common set of rules, norms, etc. The same thing happens in a coalition government, the parties make concessions to make it work and agree on a middle way. That cannot happen in a two-party system.

That is why the system needs to be transformed into a multi-party system. From now on, both parties will become more and more extreme.

Being the lowest rates means nothing. As long as people keep buying and ordering the game, they will keep on releasing Shit games. Money talks in business.

The Apple TV is expensive for a reason. It's a good product with good hardware, which means it has a smooth interface. When something is extremely cheap, YOU ARE THE PRODUCT.

Thank god I switched to Linux on my Desktop. And I also have a Macbook and I love it. I guess I can consider myself a Unix guy.
