I was downgraded from first class recently and they left the seat empty, because the recline didn't work.

I had to SSH into a server for dev work at a previous job. And vim was the obvious best answer for "IDE like" experience in a terminal. I needed more power than nano.
And then vim stalled in development. Neovim was created in response to that, and it had new shiny features (many of which vim also has now), that caught my eye (async tasks were added to neovim before vim).
So I was a vim user out of necessity and I switched to neovim to chase new shiny things, and have found 0 reason to go back.
The most commonly cited monitor in recent years for this is "AW3423DWF"... Which is AlienWare 34" (no idea what 23DW is) Freesync. I assume the 23DW has a point to it too.
Point is, people see a lot of characters and complain when in reality it is exactly what you are referring to. The name is an encoded version of its capabilities. Its just that the encoding isn't always clear because if every company used the same encoding they would have the same name. and if there are 2 similar monitors you would need to have every feature in the name to differentiate them, so the shorthand encoding becomes necessary. (Eg, AW3423DW and AW3423DWF only really differ on freesync vs gsync, thus the F at the end)
Edit: W is for WQHD: 3440x1440
"The difference between 1 billion and 1 million is basically 1 billion."
Math agrees. 1b - 1m = 999m, which is basically 1b. Even if you're a millionaire, you aren't in the same league as billionaires.
Knocking as well
A spectrum is usually drawn similar to the one on the left. But the point of a spectrum is that its not "where on the spectrum are you"... It is not one point on the spectrum. As drawn on the left, the spectrum represents possibilities. Normally a spectrum would be drawn to indicate how much of each possibility a thing covers.
Eg, the spectrum for light emission of a lamp might be :
Which means it has a bit varying of every color but is heavily green and orange, but probably looks just like white to the naked eye. Swap "green" for "language" etc and you have a spectrum.
I say "hokay, so" at least 10 times a week and I'm pretty sure everyone just thinks its a thing I say, and no one gets that it's a reference
What exactly? That they're moving to zero hour contracts
This isnt what the headline says though. "Discovered zero hour contracts" isnt how normal people speak. I have no clue if a mass teams call means they discovered some people were already on contracts, or that they were moving everyone to them, or some people, or (not knowing what a zero hour contract is) that the company has new contracts with game publishers.
You took your own understanding of the headline and even in your "its simple" added details that weren't there originally.
I want this as a print. So good.
Sorry, my phrasing of "not how it works" is more about willingness from the lender side and not "allowed" to. He couldn't even get a bond for for the reduced amount without going through a shady company. He's certainly not going to get 4 bonds.
use two or three surety companies, each taking, let’s say, a $50 or $75 million piece to total up to $175 million.
Even with split up bonds to reduce risk in a normal situation, the bonding company is going to assess risk based on the full cost of the bond. They personally only have to put up less money, so the "how much do i lose if everything goes wrong" scenario is less, but "how likely is it something goes wrong" involves "the person on trial for lying about finances doesn't actually have enough to cover the full bond, so perhaps that increases the odds of me getting my money back"
Why would you throw away $50 million dollars. It's "less risk" only because it's less money. But if you think he's shady enough that likely you never see the money again, then why put up any money, especially if you have to compete with others to get the payout.
If someone said "You can gamble $50 million or $400 million. If you win you get 5%, but the odds of winning are only 10%, and if you lose you only get back $10 million." You would obviously opt to gamble the $50 million. You want to lose less money. The payout isn't worth it given the odds. If you were then told "oh, you can just opt out and avoid the dumpster fire of a deal", you are going to choose to opt out. No amount of "it's less risk" will make this a good deal for a bonding company.
So yes, syndicating the bond is an option, no smart bonding company is going to touch this, which means even with syndicating it will be hard for him to find enough incompetent, shady, unlicensed bonding companies.
And to be clear, this is not me arguing in favor of why any amount of money was unfair to expect Trump to acquire. This is me pointing out why he's never going to get the money from legit sources because he's a financial dumpster fire, and they should just throw the book at him instead of continuously going easy on him.
edit:
But with Donald Trump bragging that he has $500 million cash in the bank, combined with the other assets we know he has in real estate
Trump bragging about made up numbers don't make anyone more confident about his assets. Both the value of his assets and how much stake in those assets is actually his is a thing he notoriously lies about. He's even been found guilty about lying about his finances I think.
If he actually had that money money just in the bank, none of this would be an issue, but the thing is... it's not true.
The archlinux-keyring package will install a few gpg keys.
But also, the AUR also uses gpg keys to validate things.
Just searching the AUR for one of the repos that Jaffa linked to in another comment...
https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=librespot
Here is the PKGBUILD. Note line 24:
validpgpkeys=('EC57B7376EAFF1A0BB56BB0187F5FDE8A56219F4') ## Roderick van Domberg
And I'm sure if you got through the AUR there are plenty of packages that use this
Many AUR helpers (like paru, or yay, etc), will either auto download these keys for you, or prompt you. Even if you were to build this pkgbuild by hand, unless you removed that line, it would require you to import the key for the makepkg to work. So "how does a fresh arch install wind up with GPG keys that I didn't manually import?" ... the answer is AUR helpers most likely (or you did it manually for a makepkg and just forgot).
It's also worth pointing out that GPG handles signing things, but also signature verification. These are all public keys in your system. Having public keys that have been used for signature verification is perfectly normal and kind of the point. If you had Roderick's private key that would be weird.
I use wayland, but be warned that there are downsides.
X11 is 40 years old. Which means that even though it has 40 years of bad decisions baked into it, it also has 40 years of features and tooling built around it.
And in some cases, things are purposefully broken in the name of security as mentioned above. Writing a keylogger on X11? Easy. Every app can watch the keyboard even when they aren't in focus. So if I type my password into firefox, Discord can listen. Hope you don't have any malicious apps just patiently listening to all your keystrokes.
Getting rid of input listening sounds great! .... Except for the concept of global keybinds. Have a Push to talk button in discord that you need it to be able to listen to while youre playing a game? Sorry, the game is in focus, so discord can't see ANY of your input. Including the push to talk button. Different wayland servers have different ways of handling this with their portals. Some don't have it at all. And the ones that do don't always have great solutions.
One major issue that has been in wayland debate hell... how do multi-window apps communicate with each other. For example GIMP. The editor window is a separate window from the toolkit which is a separate from the layer view. GIMP on X11 knows where all of its windows are because it can see everything. if you wanted GIMP to save all the window positions, it could. GIMP on Wayland has no idea where each window is relative to each other. Each window knows its own size and shape. And thats it. It doesnt know where on the screen it is. Which means it doesnt know where it's other sub windows are relative to itself. Which means GIMP on Wayland can't really save the window positions for next run. Wayland is working on a protocol for handling this, but its been caught up in debate hell last I saw. This is a prime example of a thing X11 had. And Wayland will someday have, but the 40 year headstart and disregard for security gives X11 a huge headstart.
Most of these problems have workarounds and solutions, but you might find yourself in a situation where you do in fact need to implement a workaround instead of having everything Just Work.
"Better" means different things to different people. Architecture and security and technologically? Wayland is better. Just Works and its what your apps were probably built to run on so less weird edge case issues? X11 is still better just due to inertia. (And again, I use Wayland, I'm willing to deal with the workarounds, but you do you).
