WW2 didn't start overnight. There was a series of military actions that went unchallenged. That only made the belligerents bolder.

The liver damage is very believable but a liver transplant after 4 days is absurd.

Fedora did not break the top 10. Is it not good for gaming? Genuinely curious as I was thinking of hopping to Fedora.

A quick search shows that Conrad Black was convicted of "felony fraud and obstruction of justice". Donald Trump pardoned him. So the man is a convicted fraudster with close ties to Trump. There is not enough salt on earth to take with that man's opinion.

Why is their sense of national unity tied to the success of an industry? Will PEI vote to separate because Canadians aren't eating enough potatoes?

I believe that candidates should have to be permanent residents of their riding. In this case, they picked a riding where the locals will probably be happy to have Poilievre.

Alternate title - 6 in 10 Americans don't think Trump is a terrible president.

This is poor vs rich, not young vs old. The whole evil boomer thing just misdirects our anger.

My wireless steel series worked with no extra effort.

Fluoride can be bad for you, just at much higher doses than they put in water supply. It can cause issues with bones and neurological development. Again, only in very high doses over a long time. It happens a lot in poorer countries where they can't treat well water.

It happened to me on Ubuntu. VLC and Jellyfin would both get screen tearing. Games were fine though. After some research, I found that turning on 'force full composition pipeline' in the Nvidia settings fixed it. Still too new to understand the how and why.

You are right about trying to be power users. I switched to Linux recently and definitely struggled with my sudden reduction is understanding. I got everything I needed for gaming setup up in a few hours. Then I tried to set up some productivity workflows and slammed into a brick wall of my own ignorance. I definitely considered just going back to Windows.
