Y’all are embarrassing me with Lubuntu and Chrome on a 2013 Dell with 16GB and an SSD. Not fast enough for all I need to do but covers 80% of my needs. It’s my road laptop and the home desktop handles the rest. But you’re doing much better

That’s specifically why I said ”Flock cameras”. Also mentioned our phones, they also report our location. I suspect soon cameras in other cars will also be reporting our whereabouts. Absolute privacy is almost impossible on public roads.

With no antennas, can a Tesla transmit anything at all? BTW I don’t own a Tesla. My car is like yours, a pre-2010 gas minivan with zero tracking. Our phones and roadside Flock cameras still rat out both kinds of vehicles. I suspect soon cam

I was looking into this with Teslas. Apparently the car will not be bricked if you cut the antenna wires. They are in the side mirrors (both sides) and the wires are exposed when you pull the interior door panels. If you then charge only at

He certainly contributed, but I personally would not agree that it was all his fault.

I like it in theory but the IA hosts over 175PB of data. Wonder how many other producers could replicate that data.

Wow I haven’t thought about this console since the early 90s. It definitely did have good graphics. Better go schedule that prostate exam

If it were that obvious we would have specifically heard it it predicted. Maybe someone did but I didn’t hear it, and I listen to politics daily. Expressing a desire to take Greenland but not actually doing so was a move out of his book Art

I didn’t vote for Trump but I don’t blame the voters. I don’t think many people foresaw him doing this on either side of the political aisle. Other stuff we disapprove of, yes. But not this. I say that because he had famously resisted to en

You wouldn’t want a newer gas car then. Pretty much anything these days has the ability to track you or disable you remotely. Got OnStar? https://www.onstar.com/features/location-sharing

Zero issues with Lubuntu on my road laptop for over a year now. I’ve tested most of the apps I would install at home. Not everyone hits the edge cases.

I have no problem using Debian (I’m actually a Linux sysadmin by profession) so I have no problems later switching distros. But as of today, I’m happy with Ubuntu on my road laptop and I would no doubt be happy switching the home PC, too. (

Do both. Insist that the authorities reform the abuser AND leave the relationship. In a real life abusive relationship that would look like both calling the cops and leaving. In the case of software, demand reform and also switch OSes.

Also years of Windows muscle memory here, especially the keyboard shortcuts. I’ve used Windows since 1997. I’ve decided I’m done. A new PC arrives in a month. It’ll be running Ubuntu. I’m done. Maybe there is a Linux language similar to Dir

Or they have side gigs. Many of the founders of our nation had side gigs[1]. New Hampshire is number one freest state[2], 20th place for GDP per capita[3], 8th happiest state in the nation[4], and second-safest state in the nation[5]. They

Agreed. One thing I appreciate about New Hampshire’s state congress is their pay is fixed at $100/year.

That may be true in general but I’ve found through years of bargain hunting various items that there are always options that aren’t bad. It takes more work to find them, and you might have to wait a while until the right one comes. It’s wor

Yeah, like that. Modern engines eclipsed pre-1970s engines in performance, efficiency, and even (yes I said it) in reliability. At a cost of simplicity and beauty. And two lost decades of mediocre performance. Sigh
