They could position missile/drone interceptors in preparation.

Seems a poor strategy to announce your targets before you strike them…

I should take a bet that he stays in office.

That way, either way – I win!

With or without correct grammar and spelling?

He’s never going to face any meaningful trial for that. Give up on it. Death is the best we can hope for.

When he actually does croak, I wonder how long they’ll hide it and what lengths they’ll go to in order to keep it a secret…

If they make a death announcement and then he shows up on TV again in 3 days, it will really feed into his base thinking he’s literally Jesus.

people are going to forget how awful everything around him was

Nah, JD will still be there making everything awful. And without the cult of personality around him that inexplicably makes people forget about the awfulness.

Bet on him surviving.

A) He lives, and you collect a bunch of money.

B) He dies, and you lose money.

Either way, though, it’s still cause to celebrate! A true win/win scenario.

Eh, he’s (supposedly) at a fancy hospital. So he’ll be surrounded by doctors and nurses, and probably on really good pain drugs.

So you can forget about the ‘in pain and all alone’ part. But we can still hope…

The biglyest!

Which CIA ops have anarchists asked you to believe in?

the crack is basically installing a rootkit in your system

As is denuvo.

10,990 more reasons not to go there … which nearly doubles the number of reasons why you shouldn’t go!

so you can do a lightweight desktop based on Ubuntu.

Honestly, I suspect the main issue here is Gnome.

Despite their insistence on ‘simplicity’ and ‘elegance’, Gnome is by far the most resource-hungry DE that exists in the Linux ecosystem.

That, and maybe snap packages. It can’t be good for RAM usage to have every app trying to load its own independent system of dependencies. That’s got to lead to a lot of duplication in dependencies loaded into RAM.

I’m using my 2016 Chromebook with 2GB until it literally dies. (Sucker has 16+ hours of battery life. Pretty nice, actually!)

My older-ass laptop has 2GB, so it’s kind of an issue for me.

(But I never attempted to put Ubuntu on that in the first place. It’s running a much older, purpose-built version of Linux.)

Why would 2026 Ubuntu need 6x the RAM that 2018 Ubuntu needs?

Just how much bloat are they bloating, here?

Better.

Only the ones in the Americas? Why do the ones elsewhere in the world get a pass?
