#1 IMO is that they don't make anything original anymore. I don't want to go see a live action remake of a classic cartoon movie. They can't possibly recapture what made the original great, and to be honest, what made the original great was probably the ignorance of youth and the nostalgia filter through which you personally view it.

If movie theaters are doing poorly, the movie industry should try to make smaller budget and slightly riskier original movies and movie theaters should charge less for a seat if they're having trouble filling cinemas. They make most of their money from concessions anyway and those are optional, so just get butts in seats and you'll make more money.

An investigation from a neutral third party is a good thing, but in this case LTT hired the third party investigator so the investigators obviously have an incentive to find LTT innocent of all charges since LTT is paying them through Linus Media Group (LMG). It's better than nothing, but it's like when there's an internal affairs investigation into police misconduct... by the police... Nobody believes it and for good reason.

I think upgrading the RAM as you mentioned is going to make a big difference. While the physical RAM might be soldered to the motherboard, you could buy a fairly cheap SD card or USB and set the system up to use that as virtual memory. It won't be as fast as actual RAM but it might help and large SD cards are honestly really cheap these days.

I love how intuitive it is. I knew immediately that it meant "have you ever" or "do you ever"

Seems like you've run some bad distros. Every problem you've described I've seen solutions for, and GUI solutions too, not just command line. Linux certainly was as you've described, but there are loads of user friendly distros that never require you to open a terminal window, ever, for anything.

Or just switch to Linux. It works flawlessly with everything except games that with anti-cheat that refuse to support it.

It seems like this vehicle comes with (as far as I know) the first solid state battery in a commercial vehicle which is HUGE news if true! I'm slightly skeptical because of this claim coming from the Chinese government, but who knows, it would be a huge boon for all of humanity if they've figured out solid state batteries.

The huge benefits we'll all see are increased capacity so batteries last longer, and INSANELY fast charge times. You could recharge your car to 100% in the same time as it takes to fill it up with gas currently.

Are you using the dedicated GPU as your primary GPU or the integrated GPU? I've found using the dGPU as the primary can sometimes lead to suspend/resume issues.

I dunno how it is in the rest of Canada, but here in Ontario, the Conservatives are constantly undermining the public healthcare system because they very clearly want to privatize it. It's really annoying how they're trying to slyly erode faith in the public system and letting people fall through the cracks for no reason other than greed. It's blatant to anyone paying attention, but sadly, most people aren't.

If you have an unusual setup, it can be annoying trying to give programs permissions and sometimes it just outright doesn't work. For example, I mainly game on a laptop which has a pretty small hard drive, so I tend to put most of my games on an external hard drive. Flatpak really doesn't play well with that.

lol yeah I never really understood why they tried to sell Neelix as this tough, no-nonsense scrapper when they hired this guy to play the role. Star Trek has some very questionable casting sometimes. Not that Neelix isn't great, but he definitely isn't a "tough guy".

I don't work for this company, but my wife does and I just wanted to let you all know that they're open for business all across Ontario, Canada. It's run primarily by Dr Greenaway who previous ran Connect Clinic who some of you may already be familiar with, and it's great!

If you don't already have a doctor to prescribe your HRT, give them a try!
