These people should get grant funding for reducing e-waste and Apple should pay for it.

Dont ban a religion, just ban the practices and beliefs that are detrimental.

Religions need to reform to be constructive or die.

Mikrotik is also a Latvian brand with some great kit.

The issue is all those brands still use US or Chinese semiconductors. Thats the biggest strategic threat.

Trump is raising taxes on Americans so he can

1. Buy Greenland for his buddies
2. Pay for invading Greenland for his buddies

In a sane world, you should be able to prosecute RFK for making or repeating lies. They would claim a defence that they were misinformed and not an expert in the field.

The precidence that needs to be set is that if you are appointed to a position of responsibility you are then automatically considered qualified in that field for the purpose of law.

Its either that, or break out the guillotines

I have had this with some laptops if the charger is faulty. The laptop goes into a limp mode, where the CPU locks to its lowest clock speed.

Since the display is using USB-C it may be triggering the slowness. Some USB-C monitors also deliver power to the connected device.

Is the laptop slow, even when running off battery, or only when running off battery?

Keeping an eye on the CPU frequency with something like Btop can maybe help troubleshoot the issue.

Would love to see work on getting broader application support like for microsoft office.

If you get stuck with Winboat, as its still a very new project, you might want to have a look at winapps, which is very similar

Basic documentation does not equal open source.

Toaster ovens from 40 years ago did better. They came with a technical diagram.

I fear he is playing bowling, not baseball.

I like Trumps term. He called it a strike.

Not sure if you can equate their governments to modern right wing movements. I think they would be more centrist economically and leftest socially on the modern scale, while being more right with politically until much later.

Its also worth noting they had massive US aid assistance to drive infrastructure investment and social programs for the first few decades.

In addition to other advice, with only hardware, have 1 cold spare drive for every 2 years of remaining life of the hardware. It gets difficult to find similar spec drives the older they get. So if you want to use the drives in the NAS for another 4 years, get 2 spares. After that you start getting into the territory of replacing the drives anyway.

My rule for older hardware, before trusting the ZFS fault reporting, I would follow the following steps.

(Note these are homelabber steps and not what I would do in the enterprise, where risk and time is a lot more expensive than replacing hardware)

0. Check the Smart data of the drive. If it reports the drive as faulty, replace it.

1. Zpool clear the error and see if it comes back. Sometimes drive errors are not cause by the drive itself

2. Reseat the drive and the cables between the motherboard and the drive. Clear errors after this step. Especially with older hardware and it having travelled from its previous owner to you, something might not be seated properly.

3. Move the drive to another drive bay, or swap it with another drive. If the errors move with the drive, the drive is faulty. If the errors move to the bay, you probably have a good drive, but a faulty drive bay/cable.

Salmonella, Yummy!

Only if corporations lose all rights as individuals in Law.

This is the way.

Its not just GM, but their are certainly a good example of Enshitification.

But its very unfamiliar for people coming from Windows. That said, ZorinOS does a very good job of reworking it to look and act like Windows, KDE, cinnamon or previous versions of Gnome.
