Harris delivered a ‘masterclass’ debate. Will it change the race?
  • I know this is about Fox, but I want to continue to share that neither is NPR. It is an independent nonprofit that operates independently of the government and gets less than 1% of it's operaiting budget from federal sources.

    Is "disk" just a different spelling of "disc" or are they actually different words?
  • For the optical media side of things, the name was coined by Phillips while they were consorting with Sony to develop the standard and named it the “Compact Disc” to compliment their already existing “Compact Cassette” product. They developed an official logo for the format which spelled it “disc.” That’s been with us ever since.

    Didn't LaserDisc predate Compact Discs?

    Trump supporters really rallying behind a felon and racist
  • We have a house with a Kennedy sign up front in our neighborhood. I just don't get it. At least with Trump you get the whole cult of personality thing which can explain it.

    That one says "bonkers idiot lives here" instead of "racist lives here"

  • 2023 Minnesota law Walz signed mandating free menstruation products in all public school restrooms used by students in grades four to 12.

    Yep, that's a scarlet badge of honor in my book.

    U.S. proposes ban on airline fees for seating parents next to kids
  • Biden ordered the FAA to tell airlines to not charge to seat families with young kids together. This was respected by most airlines, but not all, I think. Alaska Airlines, at least, was good about it, but it was annoying since you always had to do it at the gate and was subject to availability.

    Ahead of Android 15's launch, Android 14 is on at least 13% of active devices
  • I think that's the point of what these statistics mean. This is an indictment on manufacturers not pushing the latest OS updates more than people not accepting the latest OS updates when they're available.
