According to the Gamers Nexus (I think) video I saw, they're sourcing whatever RAM they can find, so some units ship with 1x16GB and others ship with 2X8GB and it's just random luck which you'll get.

Looking at this without context in my inbox, I thought you were being extremely generous to Trump.

Putting Biden in the bottom 15 is harsh, but fair. Fucker's gonna be remembered the same as Neville Chamberlain.

Ah, thanks for the warning. My install has been badgering me to upgrade because my (non-LTS) version just stopped getting security updates. I ought to get off my ass and switch distros.

And Biden knew that but appointed him anyway.

IIRC, they started out planning to have realistic amounts of parking, then realized that (much like sprawl in real life) it made it no fun.

Yep.

In 2002, I used Gentoo.

In 2026, I use Kubuntu.

(I should probably switch since Canonical's policies are increasingly bothering me, but meh, I can't be bothered to reinstall more than once a decade.)

Wait, the gabecube isn't exactly a cube? Well that's just mildly annoying for no good reason!

The other problem, of course, is that we’ve spent a century and a bit messing with the forests, which used to have regular burns that acted as fire breaks for the next year’s burns. Ground cover grew back thick and green in the ashes, and trees dispersed their seeds.

Now however, we’ve stopped that cycle, leading to overpopulation of insects, buildup of deadwood, and no natural fire breaks, meaning humans have to artificially do all the work that used to happen naturally… right when everything is heating up and weather systems are shifting.

As I understand it, at least some of the fires that had been happening previously were controlled burns by ~~Native Americans~~ First Nations people (sorry, USian talking about Canada), not "naturally" occurring ones.

That's some highfalutin' verbiage just to complain about punctuation.

I only keep saying it because it keeps being true.

This makes me want Adam Conover and Obama to make a sequel to The G Word showing how much damage the Federal government has taken in the last couple of years.

The movies are one thing, but in the Clone Wars TV series Anakin was a reasonably competent general.
