The headline and the contents seem to be very different. Am I having a flashback?

Neat! Thanks for sharing!

I like your style cowboy

I've been a big fan of Manjaro for exactly that reason. Something breaks occasionally and gives my skills a run for their money but a lot of the difficulty of running a rolling release gets nullified by the testing Manjaro does for you. It's a great compromise, you get almost bleeding edge for much less work than an arch installation can take.

I love me some Debian for their stability and security, I run Debian or Debian based servers mostly. But I wanted something closer to the bleeding edge for my desktop so I could make use of newer features, run newer packages etc...

Also drive Manjaro and I tell people I use Arch, there are dozens of us

I think this is what the kids call "critical reading abilities"

Same, I stream using the airplay protocol from my Lyrion Music Server and haven't had to touch their app since they arrived. If they fuck with that though so help me god I will write the nastiest things about them on the internets.

I didn't realize this, didn't get enough press. Another notch in Biden's belt, that's fantastic!

I think it is measured and professionals who work in areas where this was relevant probably track this number among many others. I think the real question you are asking is why it is always framed as a % of GDP in public discussion and news reporting. Some people here point out how % of GDP can be more useful for comparing across countries with vastly different sized economies but I think we all know the real answer has more to do with how people perceive the value differently by using the larger number. Framing government debt as a % of GDP serves the zeitgeist, whatever that is.

I don't get this sentiment, not a m$ fan but the surface hardware always made sense to me. Full laptop specs in a tablet style shape with a unique and useful aspect ratio. Sure they gimped the processor but it's still 4 times as much CPU as an ipad. It's a shame that android or IOS seem to be the only truly usable tablet operating systems these days.

As a side note I'm pretty shocked still at how poorly windows 11 performs on my SP7. It's weirdly bad considering it's their own damn hardware. There have been improvements since these things ran Windows 8 but touch still feels like a gimmick rather than a first class experience.

It's a beautiful day.
