Run the background stuff as a daemon, and then write an interface to take stdin/stdout and interact with that daemon.

An analog watch. Nothing fancy, just a cheap Casio or Timex or whatever.

Because a Silverado costs less to make, and they can sell for 3 times the price.

Maybe Uber should be responsible for background checks of their drivers and hold them accountable for their actions and be able to fire them for misconduct. But that might require hiring drivers as actual employees. And then Uber could issue company vehicles.

Oh wait, I’m describing taxi companies that already existed before Uber.

The fact that we allow Uber/Lyft to operate as a way to skirt regulations that were put in place to keep people safe, and then trust Uber will implement work around solutions like this is ridiculous.

Same goes to AirBnB

The war in Ukraine was happening while Biden was in office too.

An analog watch and a paper journal have been the biggest upgrades to my life I’ve made in years.

On your gf’s system, is hardware acceleration configured correctly?

Our Prime Minister spent the last few days in the Oval Office sucking up to Trump.

You copy some text from a webpage and put it in your markdown/LaTeX document in your text editor, like vim. Then you use pandoc/pdf-latex to export in whatever file format you need. It never looks wonky, it looks exactly like you tell it to.

Is this something I’m too markdown/LaTeX pilled to understand?

The most recent Intel Core 2 Duo was discontinued in 2008. I doubt Intel would be able to convince anyone that this is a competing product or would cause any customer confusion. No one is going to be looking for a low end processor from over a decade ago and accidentally buy a watch.

Does it use just standard watch bands? It looks like it, but I didn’t see it mentioned.

One of the things I find ridiculous about other smart watches is that they use proprietary bands. When I found out that people are paying $60+ for a silicon band for an Apple watch, it blew my mind. Also that people put screen protectors or cases on their Apple watches because their $500+ watch doesn’t even have a crystal lens, and is prone to scratching.

Still way more dangerous than just not chasing. A traffic violation is not worth putting the lives of any bystanders at risk.

Strubb’s pickles. They are supposed to be back under a new owner, but I still can’t find them in any local grocery store.

Yes

Just use KDE?

It is just KDE though. Its just a plasma skin. But what you get by installing Wubuntu instead of a proper distro, and then applying a skin, is supporting a developer with a history of bad security practices and poor behavior. Not to mention the potential copyright issues. This whole project will probably die when Microsoft realises that someone is using their name and trademarks to sell a competing project.

Even if you have 100% confidence in your own provider, you also need 100% confidence in every other recipients provider, which is basically impossible.

My point is that this flight wasn’t $100 out of $1000. It was $999 out of $1000. If the engines burned for a couple of seconds longer, it would have been a stable orbit. But their intended orbit was eccentric and had a low perigee, so that it would reenter after half an orbit.
