It's not about immigration nor opioids.

He needs to show that he's a businessman turning towards being profitable.

He can only do so much with reducing spending. He can't raise taxes. So, tariffs are his beautiful invisible tax on consumer goods that will only hurt the common man.

I went over to purelymail, but it's in .us

It's not fancy encrypted like proton, but it's very affordable and straight forward to set up for your own domains.

In my day you would start either in July or January. I wanted to go get it over with straight after secondary school in July They pushed my start date to January, because everyone wants to start in the summer between classes.

So I went to university for a year and got a six month exemption because studies. Then I did my conscription for one year and straight back to year 2 of uni. It worked out nicely time-wise, and I didn't have to think about a summer job those two summers.

After two years of studies I was in a better place to get relevant work, anyway.

My wife avoids updating her devices for as long as possible, because "updates only break things". I think I'll keep this news to myself, because otherwise I'll never hear the end of it.

I finally nudged her from a pixel 4a to an 8a for Christmas, so it is on its way to the retirement drawer.

Good.

It makes it easier to train new models if we tag the training data. Wouldn't want to poison the models by taking on AI-generated slop.

They are offering a free battery swap if you are affected. Or $50. Or $100 off a new phone.

Sounds like they're picking the cheap route out of a full recall on a pretty old phone.

+1 for purelymail.

I've had my personal domain on gmail and most recently proton. Proton got too pricy when I wanted to add another couple of domains. After some research I landed on purelymail, and it's been smooth sailing to set up and use.

And don't even get me started on urinals.

I used one of those Dyson airblades at the airport once. The damn thing started blowing air mid-stream and I got pee all over!

Use btrfs-convert to convert ext4 to btrfs.

NTFS is 31 years old and not modern by any standard. Avoid if you care about your data.
