Yes, I remember reading that they've set up vaccination centres for wild birds. No appointments though.

Edit: I had it backwards. It's by appointment only, and they've had very low vaccination numbers despite all the bird calls.

Its so cheap to just get a vps from a littlecreekhosting deal

This site seems suspicious as hell. Incredibly basic site, no info on where they're located, and the "About Us" links aren't even links. There's no About Us page.

Kinda. Generally the user files (including custom installed applications) are on a rw partition. Whereas the system files (OS files, root folder, etc) are on a ro partition. When updates are applied to the core system they come as complete images. No compiling from source on the fly.

The advantages to this is that it should be near impossible to break your system. If you need to roll back to a previous version the system just/downloads/mounts the previous image. There is less flexibility in terms of changing system files. But the idea with immutable distros is that you shouldn't be modifying system files anyways, and there are different ways to accomplish things.

A really good example is Android. Android (non-rooted) is kinda-sorta an immutable distro. Except it uses an A/B partition method, where the active system downloads and installs to the other partition, triggers a flag, then a reboot picks up the flag and boots from the newly installed partition. If anything goes wrong, another flag is triggered and it boots from the "good" partition.

It's not quite the same, but at a high-level it kinda is.

Edit: article I found about it

You think there's pain in React? My day job is maintaining and improving an Angular SPA

The benefit here would be to eradicate the virus, so that in about 6 months or so there can be confidence that there's no issue anymore.

If I can't control something 100% local, I don't buy it. If it requires an online account in any way, it's trash.

Oh man, that's bogus. That's for sharing that.

Wait, what exactly does Ecobee require chrome for? I was looking to replace my Nest thermostat with an Ecobee.

This makes me think of my nephew who is convinced that a dog like a Cane Corso or Kangal can take on a bear 1v1.

It's actually astonishing how fast Tesla went from the most sought-after brand to becoming the most hated brand.

There are going to be case studies on this for centuries in all kinds of sciences.

That's entirely untrue.

That's like saying Windows is meant for Visual Studio developers. You could use other IDEs but that's not its strong point.
