Ansible playbook is perfect for this. All your configuration is repeatable, whether on a running system or a new one. Plus you can start with a completely fresh newest version image and apply from there, instead of starting from a soon-to-be outdated custom image.

It states the OpenStreetMap data is from May. Is it fully offline and needs to wait for the next app update?

Thanks for such an enjoyable App!

I specifically picked the statistic that claimed to have included the full cost of installing something new. Most other statistics only include prolonging the life of existing plants, thus ignoring the installation costs completely. You can just quote the paragraphs that prove your point the same way I have and then we can discuss further. Maybe I made a mistake, who knows.

Extremely cheap per kilowatt? Every statistic out there that I've seen and that includes government funding, as well as construction and deconstruction costs, paints a different picture. Nuclear is only competitive with coal or the relatively underdeveloped solar thermal.

In 2017 the US EIA published figures for the average levelized costs per unit of output (LCOE) for generating technologies to be brought online in 2022, as modelled for its Annual Energy Outlook. These show: advanced nuclear, 9.9 ¢/kWh; natural gas, 5.7-10.9 ¢/kWh (depending on technology); and coal with 90% carbon sequestration, 12.3 ¢/kWh (rising to 14 ¢/kWh at 30%). Among the non-dispatchable technologies, LCOE estimates vary widely: wind onshore, 5.2 ¢/kWh; solar PV, 6.7 ¢/kWh; offshore wind, 14.6 ¢/kWh; and solar thermal, 18.4 ¢/kWh.

Modern browsers happily show you the actual characters, while sending their encoded entities to the server. So, from a user perspective there is no ASCII limitation. Case in point: söhne.at (just some random website, I have no idea what they are or if they are legitimate)

1Password can't fail that hard easily. They've done great write-ups to compare their architecture to that of LastPass. Long story short: it's the secret key that protects you: https://blog.1password.com/what-the-secret-key-does/

Trouble with those tests is, that they become unreliable or even meaningless, when you have done then once before, let alone daily.

When I installed Kinoite to start using Linux as my primary daily driver, the first thing I did was setting up Ansible, creating a new playbook and all Linux configurations I made from that point on, are only ever done through that playbook, which is backed up in my Forgejo instance. One command and everything is being set up exactly the way I want. It feels extremely liberating.

Windows hss supported slashes in both directions for a very long time. I almost exclusively use forward slashes to reduce mental load when switching between OSes.

To me it feels like it doesn't do much better than the Google keyboard. But it does follow my custom dictionary while swiping, which Google never did. After all these years it still suggested a word I never use instead of a name I type often. Heliboard just casualty does the correct thing after adding the name to the dictionary. That plus showing the detected word directly above the finger so I can keep my eyes on one spot instead of constantly checking the text for bullshit words are killer features to me.

 

With Wayland becoming more and more popular, it's interesting to look at the around 40 year history of X.
