Literally every media outlet curates which stories it publishes, this is not unique to this website.

Linux in the wild for the first time

Me too man, but not by much

This sort of ridiculousness is why I got two seperate drives (needed the extra space anyways) and choose which one to boot from the mobo EFI menu.

Israel existed long before America or England were nation states.

Yes, let's just forget all the history about how the Jews were scattered during various occupations over the last 3000-4000 years.

Is Israel just really bad at genocide or am I missing something?

Because Israel has been trying to genocide the Palestinians for at least a decade and a half according to this infographic, and according to others since the creation of the current state of Israel in 1948 (which is really just an indigenous population returning to their millennial-long ancestral home) and the Palestians are are not only there, but the population is growing.

Gaming works pretty damn well as far as I'm concerned, the few that I can't get to work are irrelevant.

I'm keeping Windows around for work... fuck Autodesk and fuck Dassault. So I am trying to get a VM with GPU pass through to work (had it working once but then I screwed it up and now I can't seem to get it working again).

Fossil fuels aren't a yes/no thing, we aren't getting off them cold turkey and neither is any other country. Part of the process is substituting higher emitting fossil fuels with lower emitting ones while we work towards the goal.

Extractive industry is heavily required if we're going to get off fossil fuels, we have tons of metals that are pretty damn important for building nuclear and various renewable energy sources.

But in the meantime, the world was clamouring for natural gas because of sudden restrictions due to the war in Ukraine and it was pants-on-head retarded to turn that down.

If there is a higher chance that an item is going to become illegal than another, stocking up on items that you might not be able to sell doesn't make sense.

As an example, the Modern Sporter was FRT banned about 4 years ago and is still not actually illegal.

Although I'm aware there's a greater uncertainty around semi-autos in general right now.

Eh, so does Western Liberalism and basically every other government for the last hundreds of years, I'd argue that they are even authoritarian to very similar degrees but about different things.
