I’m not sure why they call it neutered, but it is nice getting poked a bit less by the back of the board.

Linux users are also more likely to be private people and not willing to share info about their system. Both of those two effects are probably pretty small and cancel eachother for this survey.

i still need a windows installation for those games that refuse to work on Steam (I play Helldivers 2 and Space Marine 2 coop and I can’t get expedition 33 to run on Linux

All three of those have a gold or higher rating on Linux, meaning they run fine on linux with little to no effort. Helldivers 2, Space Marine 2, Expedition 33. If you are having specific issues, check out the linked pages where people share their fixes.

Damn, that is a solid upward trend.

Seriously.

All AMD had to do here is create a 12GB and 16GB version (instead of 8 and 16), then gesture at all the reviews calling the RTX 5060 8GB DOA because of the very limiting VRAM quantity.

8GB VRAM is not enough for most people. Even 1080p gaming is pushing the limits of an 8GB card. And this is all made worse when you consider people will have these cards for years to come.

Exactly, that information isn’t coming from inside the black hole. In fact it is the lack of information that tells us such things. We know the ratio between the lack of information (the event horizon) and the mass of everything inside.

A recount requires a vote to be close, it wasn’t. Trump won every swing state. And with the margins he won by, every recount in the world would not overcome the 86 EVs she trailed by.

Donald Trump wants Kyiv to hand over its natural resources as “payback” in return for weapons delivered

We get our payback every time we send lethal aid. The soviet military inheritance is now smouldering wreckage, and a whole lot of invaders are no longer around to kill people.

The more weapons and support we send Ukraine, the higher returns we receive.

From the source:

In the case of Vyacheslavova and Others v. Ukraine the Court held that there had been violations of the right to life/investigation on account of the authorities’ failure to do everything that could reasonably be expected of them to prevent the violence in Odesa on 2 May 2014, to stop that violence after its outbreak, to ensure timely rescue measures for people trapped in the fire, and to institute and conduct an effective investigation into the events. It also held that there had been a violation of the right to respect for private and family life in respect of one applicant concerning the delay in handing over her father’s body for burial.

Europe is fucked. Always gotta have America do everything! ;p

That’s just good planning. Natural disasters can easily require more than that in supplies. Buying extra cans and a few gallons of water isn’t expensive.

Be the change you want to see in the world. Post some original content, comment on posts, add value.

Is it getting filtered into the spam folder by accident?

Win 11 is going to eat up so, so many resources on a low-power device like a Pi.

Yeah, kids are darn expensive. I’m damn happy my parents decided to have me despite that fact. :)

To answer OP’s question, also doing better than them at the same age. Big part of it was investing early (time-value of money is a massive deal) and keeping the same car forever. My parents have spent quite a bit on cars over the years, it is probably their largest reducible expense. I bought a lightly used crossover a long time ago, and it’s got a long life ahead of it.

Yeah, it is basically never worth the effort to de-solder and re-solder RAM. It’s why people rail so hard on it and why you should pay attention to it’s (non-) existence next computer you buy. It hurts you years down the line when what should have been a cheap upgrade is turned into simply binning what you own and buying new.

Russia is in their 4th year invading a European country and the US is looking to back out from their support in the defense of Europe. Gotta do what you gotta do.

Ukraine will have an election after the war is over. That has always been true.

To be clear, this is SoftBank Group, OpenAI, and Oracle investing in AI in the US. Not a US federal initiative.

Framework laptops look like they have held in price. Hopefully it stays that way.
