I don't know how many times it needs to be said but felonies don't fix problems. Deterrence keeps honest people honest. IMHO we should almost certainly read news stories like this as reminders that American needs better mental health policy and infrastructure. People who are experiencing mental illness do not magically go away when we ignore them. Slapping felonies on people makes it harder for them to improve their lives, not easier.

Sorry for the rant, just needed to say it today.

I really like Manjaro. I've been running it on my personal computer for many years now, however, I would not recommend it for grandma's computer. Their "delayed and curated" release strategy mostly just works but when it doesn't it doesn't. As someone mentioned elsewhere in the comments I would lean towards Red Hat or Debian for more mindless distros. I've administered thousands of Debian package updates and distro upgrades and it's so stable. We don't deserve Debian.

Oh no....... I am almost 40 and I have been pronouncing it "go-dot" this entire time. WHY IS LANGUAGE LIKE THIS

Thanks for posting this, it's important people catch more than just the headline. This is clearly another example of proton delivering on their promise. Fucking headlines gonna headline.

Not really hating on valve as they have done an enormous amount of good for pc gaming but yeah, it is deeply frustrating how slowly they roll out fixes. For a ~$700,000,000 a year company they are incredibly slow at publishing fixes and necessary updates to just their core software. It's all kinds of ridiculous that with a budget like that they are still lagging behind open source projects like moonlight/sunshine.

That's some great perspective, thanks for the detailed reply!

I've been puzzled about the seemingly quiet reception Wolfram's idea seem to receive from the serious scientific community. He doesn't seem like a huxter and to my uneducated ears it sounds like a plausible set of ideas. Like other people are saying it's all a bit over my head.

But like, no one talks about it. Is it just blase or not particular relevant even if true, or just less useful than he seems to think?

No worries mate, appreciate you posting and following up, have a great day!

Not sure if I just missed something but I couldn't find any new content pulling it up with Firefox for Android. Just seeing the original videos. Will check desktop site later.
