Americans didn’t decide it. Loophole in fuel efficiency laws ties the fuel economy footprint to carriage size. So to get around this, the manufacturers started making the cars larger, wider, and boxier. It’s why even small sedans are several inches wider than they used to be, when you can find them at all.
Right? I’m tearing through Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne remaster and Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory. It’s great.
I use it because I love it but no need at least not for app installing having Discover.
Didn’t you have to install that via the terminal? Discover store is not installed on EndeavourOS by default. You must have installed it and forgot.
Anyway can’t compare an arch based distro to Fedora or Ubuntu
Why not?
Depends on your distro. Maybe on Ubuntu or Mint, sure. I’m running EndeavourOS, and it’s terminal or nothing. I’m fine with that, but YMMV.
A man with nothing to lose is a dangerous opponent.

This. It just solidifies my stance on buying music from Bandcamp instead of making me say “I should buy elsewhere.”

Sorry to hear that.
I got a couple utterly stupid high quotes from national installers who didn’t even scope my property or space allocation, azimuth, nothing. Skipped those.
I lucked out with a local installer. They aren’t amazing or anything, but weren’t scammy and worked fast and professionally once the permits were sorted. They sent someone to my house for the initial estimates and investigation and no hard sell when I told them what I wanted. Paid cash in three agreed installments at build milestones.
Only bad thing was I was originally supposed to get a 16kw battery but ran into the LG battery debacle mid-process and they couldn’t provide it. We negotiated a 10kw solar edge battery and in exchange they comped me two more panels, bumping me from a 5.6kw system to 6.4kw, which worked out fine in the end.
I’d like more battery in the future, but I’ll deal with that down the line since the battery warranty (and lifespan) will lapse well before the panels do.

Yikes. My solar setup is pretty close to net-zero usage (generally covers between 98% to 102% of my usage year to year), and my county does net metering so at most I have a connection fee and one small partial bill annually.
Admittedly, the initial buildout was pricey ($33k), but tax subsidies were still in place at the time and after the rebates the cost was only $22k. Was worth it, since it was more for ensuring stable power during outages since I work from home. The monthly power billing was an afterthought, but nice nonetheless.
I wouldn’t say it’s meaningless, but with the increased cost of almost everything, it’s admittedly a drop of water in the ocean.
I’m grateful, I had a home built in 2021 and installed solar and battery on it, so two major fluctuating and rising costs (rent and electric) are non-issues for me. It goes a long way towards stability, financially speaking.
Can’t speak for all locations, but where I live eggs are back to pre-spike pricing. I can buy 5-dozen for $15 currently.
Trying to remain spoiler free here, but how does the audio book handle the… context switching, shall we say, when there’s a perspective change? I’m curious since I recommended the series to my wife who also enjoys audio books.
On the written novel there was a icon below the chapter header to signify.
The end of The Will of the Many really puts a spin on everything that happened prior, and The Strength of the Few runs with it and it’s insane. I don’t know how Islington does this, his books are amazingly paced and plotted.
I have to admit, I had to take periodic breaks while reading Strength, no spoilers, but it’s extremely involved with separate concurrent plots that are all in depth.
Finished The Strength of the Few by James Islington on Monday.
I need some time to digest. I don’t know if I’m gonna get anything else read this week as I need a palate cleanser from reading so many heavy and dark books lately, but I also can’t imagine anything but a direct sequel to be a satisfying follow-up after that book.
Of course I’m serious. I even put on my serious face when I typed it:
If I were joking I’d look more like this:
For a general use or gaming PC, 32GB is more than enough for the majority of users. It might show its limits with use as a server or dedicated database using complex queries.
Heck, even as servers go, I’ve got an AMD mini-PC running a Ryzen 5700u with 32 GB RAM. It’s running Plex, Jellyfin, AudioBookShelf, Home Assistant, Asset UPnP, and a few other apps, plus has some small extra VMs occasionally for testing stuff and I’m hardly utilizing it, nowhere near capacity. I’m never using more than 8 out of 16 threads, and about half the RAM is still available even under full load scenarios when I’m running updates and using Plex heavily (such as scanning intros, or doing acoustic analysis for Plexamp use).
Most of the time under normal use, it’s practically idle, and RAM use is low (Proxmox with memory minimums and ballooning).
