Look, I have a suggestion that will change your life. You can never live another way again.
Go buy 10-20 pairs of socks, all same. When you get a hole in one sock, you only throw away the one sock. You never have to worry about mixing and matching. If you’ve got two socks, they count as a pair.
I’m not even matching my keycaps to socks, nor wearing anything special, I just found a specific pair of socks I liked and I’ve bought heaps over the years.
I mean you could buy a lightly used Dacia maybe? Or a Fiat 500 maybe.
But if you want a decently comfy car, nothing luxury, but also not a basic model, 20-30k is minimum for lightly used. German cars depreciate quickly so they’re your best bet in that price range. Toyotas and Volvos will actually be more expensive for same year, mileage, size.
Civil matter, not a crime.
50k km is still “need a loan” territory for most people. The absolute newest car I’ve owned was 144k km, 3 years old, and still cost near 30k.
Plus when it’s like 2% + 6 months euribor for a lease you get to keep at the end, it starts looking hella more attractive.
Now the APR in the OP, that’s predatory af.
Probably just the extra cost of linkage and maybe risk of tripping over it
You skipped kids 3 thru 14 there
All you can do is add to pollen I guess. Plant seeds of native plants that bees love. Indiscriminately in random places.
Maybe someone else has some better ideas.
Do be careful. I’m considering 700€ headphones because of them.
Their sortable category ratings are just awesome though. Have a big home? Go look at routers and sort by rating for multi-level home or large home.
Sony and Philips are the top tier lately as far as I know. LG has been doing weird things and Samsung hasn’t actually been good on the high-end for a long time. Or maybe it’s coming back now with the QD-OLED displays? Because the original “QLED” absolutely felt like deceptive marketing, as “QLED” looks so similar to “OLED”. Then there’s the whole ads thing on Samsung. Idk if LG does this.
So chances are, you made a pretty good choice. Sony’s a reliable company generally.
Oh I meant in that Atom was sunsetted to make way for it mostly.
That you have to manually specify partitions in Windows?
You literally don’t have to create a single one, only point it at empty space or a partition you’re willing to have it delete for space. It handles the rest. Does it matter how many partitions it creates?
Did you install that Ubuntu on a legacy BIOS system or maybe one with an existing EFI partition? Because I can’t see how you could have a modern OS without at least two partitions.
Ra-ra-rasputin
Not OP, but rtings seems good to me. They’re not afraid to mention when a new model is actually inferior to it’s predecessor and they have standardized scoring for multiple product categories. Downside is limit of free reviews per month, but I’ve never needed more than they allow.
I mean you still have a separate EFI partition under Linux. Personally I also have a separate /home partition which is heavily recommended in case you nuke your Linux either on purpose or accidentally. You may also want to create other partitions, like swap, though I just have a swapfile.
Is the an installer that only creates only one partition, no EFI system partition?
I thought the books were for your shelf tbh. You put one for each language you claim proficiency in.
It’s cool to have niche older books though. My friend has a programming manual in Estonian from either the very late soviet era or very early 90s that has both some dialect of BASIC and some niche dialect of Pascal that I hadn’t even heard of.
Yes but the question is whether it’s imagined newly by a human, or it comes from an algorithm that only works because it’s combining other people’s existing works.
Tablets and software made things easier for humans, AI just… Makes artists obsolete and if you do create something new, it’ll be ingested too.
I agree with you in the core principle that less work for more productivity is good, but I feel creative work is the one notable exception. We remember a bunch of paintings from centuries ago not because they’re beautiful to look at even, but because these particular artists have found interesting new ways to convey their view of the world or their feelings. AI generating a new version of a Van Gogh painting isn’t as impressive.
Ghibli movies, similarly, have a distinctive art style that reminds you of how these movies have been lovingly made by dedicated artists who poured their souls into it. Using AI to shit out random content with the same style is just blatant disrespect for everything they’ve done. You can use AI to clone paw patrol or something if you want. That’s a merch seller, not art.
That one IS a controversial opinion unfortunately.
Man, if only this was happening in a country with armed citizens, they could maybe do something about it.
Unfortunately the solution is to use a binary package for your gender, which puts you in one of a few common configurations, rather than letting you customize.
