And of that 61%, only a third are directly investing. The rest get it as part of their compensation package for their work, which they can’t benefit from without penalty until retirement. Additionally, it skews heavily by race. It’s 66% of white families, but only 39% of black families and 28 percent of hispanic families. The amount invested follows similar trends.
Actually most of us work for a living and don’t have the luxury of having enough money for investments to be practical in the first place, but I guess you can pretend it’s necessary to get by if it makes you feel better about it.
No that’s true, open source is superior is proprietary
“Let’s remove the social element of our social movement”
Great so what’s left at that point, the free value FOSS provides to corporations?
Criticizing people’s past and current actions relating to the subject and bringing up their direct history relavent to the subject is not a personal attack, nor is it out of line to point out he does his to advance his political agenda within the project, which is why he got banned in the first place. All of this directly relates to the subject at hand.
You know what doesn’t relate to the subject at hand? Your random little “sjw gender terrorists” comment. But it does make it rather clear why you want to obfuscate the facts about Srid’s history with the project, subsequent ban, and continued amplification of drama and general shit-stirring ever since.
You made one reply to me whining that I attacked the person by pointing out his beliefs, and then made another reply to me about “gender terrorist SJWs”. Do you just lack any form of self-awareness?
I attacked his beliefs which is perfectly valid. You should critically examine the motives and biases of people who feed you information.
You should know that the guy you cited in the second link, Srid, is a well-known right-wing shit-stirrer who is banned from basically all NixOS spaces because he cannot peacefully coexist. He literally gets up day after day with the seemingly sole purpose of fueling drama and causing problems. Don’t take his opinion at face value, he wants to see the project burn down and this colors his interpretation of events.
NixOS is going through a rocky moment for sure, but there’s no indication it will implode currently.
Incredibly funny story, incredibly awful website.
That’s where you’re wrong, buddy. It’s actually very easy to blame Microsoft for holding a decades-long desktop monopoly by pushing manufacturers to include Windows on every PC out of the box.
People really be out here preloading their computer with viruses to get around Microsoft’s latest bullshit instead of just using Linux, we ain’t never gonna have the Year of the Linux Desktop
Whatever you get for your NAS, make sure it’s CMR and not SMR. SMR drives do not perform well in NAS arrays.
I just want to follow this up and stress how important it is. This isn’t “oh, it kinda sucks but you can tolerate it” territory. It’s actually unusable after a certain point. I inherited a Synology NAS at my current job which is used for backup storage, and my job was to figure out why it wasn’t working anymore. After investigation, I found out the guy before me populated it with cheapo SMR drives, and after a certain point they just become literally unusable due to the ripple effect of rewrites inherent to shingled drives. I tried to format the array of five 6TB drives and start fresh, and it told me it would take 30 days to run whatever “optimization” process it performs after a format. After leaving it running for several days, I realized it wasn’t joking. During this period, I was getting around 1MB/s throughput to the system.
Do not buy SMR drives for any parity RAID usage, ever. It is fundamentally incompatible with how parity RAID (RAID5/6, ZFS RAID-Z, etc) writes across multiple disks. SMR should only be used for write-once situations, and ideally only for cold storage.
I’m gonna keep it real with you, I’ll take “weirdo CEO and optional AI tools” over “corporate entity so powerful that society has literally warped around it, whose primary business model is psychological manipulation” any day of the week. The other search engines are so poor at what they do that they’re not viable options.
I’ve switched to Kagi recently and honestly it’s better than Google ever was. You can assign weights to sites to see more or less of them in your results, it automatically cuts the listicle crap out, it has various built in filters for specific things like forums or scientific studies.
Downside: it’s $10/mo. But I’m at the “I’d rather pay with money than data” stage of my life. Especially if it actually makes the experience fucking usable again.
When people recognize they were wrong about something, as smugly satisfying as it may be it’s not actually helpful to tell them that they should have been correct sooner.
Refurbished drives get their SMART data reset during the process, they absolutely had more than that originally.
Motorola has always had some custom additions, it’s not running raw AOSP. Unless it’s changed in the last year, not even the Pixel can do it. Good to know Moto has apparently had this feature for a while though, wish Google would get it into Android itself so everyone can benefit.
This feature unironically turned me from a decade long Samsung hater into a Samsung shill. The fact that it’s still not in base Android is just embarrassing.
“Because I feel like it.”
So in other words, because she wants to? As in, “because it’s her body and she can do whatever she wants with it”?
I always come back to Smart Launcher. I grew up with category-based application menus on on PC, I can’t stand having a giant unorganized app drawer. It’s so cluttered and messy. I’m always surprised at how little mention it gets and instead everybody talks about these “minimalist” launchers that are literally just unorganized app drawers.
