  • 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.

  • Many countries got that, because countries stopped buying US products and went elsewhere for their imports.

  • The DNC broke that man

  • As a reminder, that any social network can be captured, if it relies on central control.

    But competition is good at least.

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

  • Basic documentation does not equal open source.

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

    I would encourage you to read up on the research. Pre verbal babies absolutely demonstrate moral behaviour. As do many animals.

    I also did not say Christianity was peaceful. It certainly was just as violent as Islam during the middle ages when they were at the peak of their expansionist periods.

    The most peaceful human societies are the ones where religion has the least impact. You are correct that it is not the only factor. Systemic Violence will find its way anywhere where inequality is being exploited.

    Whether it is religion based like with Christian nationalism in the West, Islamic forced conversions of children in West Africa, or Jewish settler colonialism in Palestine.

    Or, if religion is not playing a significant role, like with resource exploitation, imperialism or illicit substance trade.

    The difference is that religion most often used to convince moral people that the bad things they are asked to participate in, are in fact good things, where with the latter, they usually know they are doing bad things, but feel they have no other choice.

  • I fear he is playing bowling, not baseball.

  • I like Trumps term. He called it a strike.

  • All social animals demonstrate the capacity and preference formorality. 6 month old toddlers demonstrate it before even understanding religion and complex language.

    You are peaceful because of our biological social programming and evolution selecting for it over thousands of generations, not because rules written down in a book by some person.

    Only humans commit violence in the name of religion. Its not the only reason, but its a very common one. Its a very effective way to reprogram our inherit morality and to get good people to think that bad things are good.

  • It is certainly empowering them. Same way Islam is empowering Iran and Christianity is empowering the far right in America.

    There are peaceful people despite those religions, but not because of them. Our peaceful and cooperative nature comes from our biology and societies.

  • All the Abrahamic religions are violent and oppressive and no one wants to combat it either.

  • If he keeps to his Oath, he can swear on whatever book he wants.

    Maybe that is why US politicians lie so much, the bible is the problem /s

    Personally if I ever need to take an oath, I am doing it on a copy of the 7 tenets of the Satanic Temple.

    That or Small Gods by Terry Pratchett.

  • 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)

    1. Check the Smart data of the drive. If it reports the drive as faulty, replace it.
    2. Zpool clear the error and see if it comes back. Sometimes drive errors are not cause by the drive itself
    3. 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.
    4. 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.
