  • Christian dad sued school to keep his son from knowing that LGBTQ+ people exist. He just won.

  • Nothing inspires curiosity more than making something forbidden.

    That kid is gonna find out ALL KINDS of information that his dad doesn’t want him to know about from his peers. Some of it good, most of it inaccurate, but you go ahead, dad.

  • I’ll have to take your word for it. I’m just parroting what the dishwasher repair guy told me.

  • Occasional cleaning in the dishwasher is probably fine, as long as it’s occasional. Dishwasher detergent contains enzymes that eat away at the food on your dishes. Just be sure and do it with a full load of dirty dishes, otherwise those enzymes will start eating away at whatever else is in the dishwasher. 

    It’s why if you read the manual of your dishwasher, it will usually tell you to not rinse your dishes before putting them inside. Those enzymes need something to work on, and if there is no food for them to munch on, they will start munching on your glasses and dishes, dulling their finish.

  • NYC congestion pricing cuts air pollution by 22% in Manhattan, study finds

    Jump

  • Our hotel was in FiDi, but I had issues even in Midtown. I have a brother in Harlem, and when I mentioned it to him, he was not surprised.

    We come up to visit our daughter pretty regularly. I usually don’t have issues when I go to NYC, just these past two times when it was downright painful.

  • I would have a love for it to be a cold, but I have never had colds with no other symptoms than burning lungs when I am walking down the street in Manhattan.

  • Two, actually. And they were almost a year apart. And it didn’t happen in Brooklyn, only in Manhattan.

    I’m obviously not discrediting the study, only stating that I didn’t notice a difference. Clearly 20% cleaner is not enough for me.

  • Normally I’d agree with you, but I’ve been traveling to NYC once or twice a year for the past 8 years, was there for 5 days, and only had issues on the most recent trips.

  • I sure didn’t notice it. My trip to NYC over Thanksgiving week left me with sore and painful lungs nearly every day I was there.

  • They want to keep it because it’s a double recursive acronym, GNU Image Manipulation Program, where “GNU” translates to “GNU’s Not UNIX.”

    So clever.

  • This is just e-waste. Please don’t buy this. The resolution is 480p. Spend a few dollars more and get something you will actually KEEP.

  • The Intel i386 turns 40 years old — 275,000 transistors running at 16MHz changed personal computing forever

    Jump

  • My very first PC (though not my first computer) was a white box 386SX running at a lofty 16MHz with 4MB of RAM and a 40MB HDD. The motherboard (which I still have) from an unknown manufacturer.

    That single computer spawned a hobby and an eventual 28-year career in IT hardware and operating systems.

  • If you enter it in at boot time it’s not permanent, so it’ll either work or it won’t, but it shouldn’t break anything.

  • Dell Latitude Touchpad Deadzone and Fingerprint

    Jump

  • So it looks like the touchpad problem is a known issue with that particular model. A web search turned up an Arch Linux forum post from 2017 with the same issue. Unfortunately, there was no solution posted.

    Your touchpad shows up as a PS/2 device, right? I have a ThinkPad A475 with a PS/2 trackpad that won’t function at all in Linux unless I add i8042.reset as a GRUB argument.

    Maybe see if that helps?

    He died as he believed. Good for him.
