The situation echoes the 2018-2020 trade war, during which U.S. agriculture lost $26 billion, with nearly $20 billion in soybean losses alone.
Weird, we tried this a few years back it seems with terrible consequences. Why are we doing this again? Seriously who is starting all of these trade wars?
Oh.
Oh I see.
Here is the letter allegedly from Trump to Epstein on his birthday.
I don’t think it’s that “three fifths” is the only bad part per se, it just gets referenced a lot because it is a really indefensible example of how enslaved people were considered less than a person. So much so that here it is codified as a fraction of a person. Very in your face sort of language.
The AirTag chirp is not that loud. Yes if you held it right to your ear canal it might be uncomfortable but the distance from neck collar to ear I wouldn’t worry about.
MSNBC Recap of the situation.
Basically Musk attacked Trump on Twitter over the big bill. It’s been escalating rapidly with Musk insinuating Trump should be impeached and threatening to start a “centrist” political party and Trump threatening Elon’s government contracts.
Maybe. Or the propaganda will have been so successful that nobody will discuss climate change because that’s just the way things are.
Search for “digital nomad visa” plus the name of whatever country you might be interested in living in.
Moreover, Tails 6.15 removes firmware blobs for Broadcom’s aging BCM4301 and BCM4306 Wi-Fi chipsets. The project believes machines carrying those radios are already too old to boot current Tails images; nevertheless, users who see their wireless interface disappear are encouraged to report back.
I’m using an RTX 5800 with Nobara and although I can game fine I get multiple graphical bugs in the desktop (parts of windows not fully rendering, flashing artifacts when moving windows, and aliasing artifacts around fonts (yes I’m running the correct resolution). So Ulrich is right, it’s absolutely a problem even on newer hardware too.
Anything can be used as an excuse by those people if they want, same way that cops can pull you over because “you swerved” and can search your car because “it smells of weed.”
It’s totally a reasonable precaution to have an inexpensive phone that is used for international travel and has no significant personal info on it in the event of theft, loss, or other threats.
Every country in the world needs all the other countries more than all of the other countries need it. There’s just no real leverage, because we’re all interconnected; you can snip one country out, and it’ll slightly hurt everyone, but it’ll *wreck* the country that was snipped out.
This is just such an absolutely perfect summary. I wish we could American politicians to speak this clearly to explain why this is such a bad idea.
I’ve had a similar experience overall. The breaking point for me was about 2 weeks after I set up Apple Intelligence I had a vacation planned and important details were on my calendar (flights, hotels, rental car, etc). My wife and I were discussing logistics of the day we were leaving and she wanted to know what time our flight departed so I asked Siri “What time is my flight on Saturday?”
It was literally one of two items on the calendar that day and she couldn’t answer the question. She kept resorting to trying to search the web for “flights for Saturday.” I tried a lot of other things also before disabling the feature but it was just useless for most basic things.
they take a hard left and blame minorities somehow
Or a hard right, maybe?
I’m working on that. I have little previous experience with Linux and self hosting but I’m slowly making progress. I now have switched my gaming PC over to Linux almost full time. I know I can switch to Jellyfin for video streaming but it’s been a lower priority to figure out compared with other services I’m trying to understand how to self host.
Definitely true. I’ve been putting off an upgrade of my NAS because they have randomly decided to completely remove the video streaming software that came with it when I bought it. So infuriating.
I just did a new build with AMD 9800X3D and RTX 5080. I’ve been dual booting Win 11 and Nobara. I haven’t done direct head to head benchmarks but Deep Rock Galactic, Deep Rock Survivor, Satisfactory, Skyrim, Atomic Heart all have run fine on Nobara.
The big difference I’ve noticed is Cyberpunk 2077. For whatever reason the AI frame generation tool doesn’t seem to work on Nobara so max FPS is around 65-70 with max raytracing/graphics settings. On Windows I got around 75+ and with the AI frame generation it goes up to 180 (I realize this is not a feature that some people like, please just realize I’m reporting my testing results).
Now all of that said, there is this weird jitteriness along the edges of objects with rapid camera movement in Cyberpunk on Windows, even at 180 fps, that isn’t there on Nobara. So even though the objective frame rate is much lower on Nobara, it actually feels much smoother and nicer.

Thank you this is such an important thing that often goes unsaid. We are all really busy people, all of us, and we don’t have time to microanalyze the nuance of very person’s situation.
If you’re a public personality and you do/say something awful - how you act when called out is all most people are going to see or care about. If you don’t acknowledge you were wrong then I assume the bad action was deliberate and I move on. Life is too busy to give attention to people that act badly and then refuse to apologize or take responsibility.
I think you’re falling into the trap of making a good faith argument when the people pushing to destroy encryption are not.
I felt your comment in my bones.
History tells us that unfortunately fascists are REALLY good at causing collateral damage on the road to self-destruction.
