Why wouldn't it be? I don't understand the point of this article. It's not like some other direct P2P communication medium is going to come along and upend it. It doesn't really make sense to run fiber inside your home. You don't need that kind of bandwidth for such a small number of devices and it would be prohibitively expensive since you need a specialized, highly trained technician to run it - unlike Ethernet, where any sufficiently motivated person can do so. I've heard that the people that run fiber for ISPs make something like $200/hr or so.

Twitch embeds ads directly into the stream now. They're next to impossible to block now, though I've heard some people say it's still possible.

Why is the IDF still relying on bombing and artillery strike to stop Hamas if it's proven it causes such high civilian casualties?

You're funded and supplied by the largest military industrial complex in the world and its allies and you're telling me you can't get troops on the ground to rescue hostages?

It almost seems intentional at this point and if they keep this up, between them blowing the shit out of Gaza and Hamas executing/torturing hostages, there won't be anyone left to rescue.

There are significant differences between statistical models and AI.

I work for an analytics department at a fortune 100 company. We have a very clear delineation between what constitutes a model and what constitutes an AI.

I remember when Chrome released and it was a hot mess performance wise. I haven't used it since and it doesn't seem like I'm missing anything.

If this is true the crowd on here that often says Firefox is really owned by Google because Google pays Mozilla to have their search engine be the default search engine on Firefox really need to look at their claim and rethink their understanding of how Mozilla and Google interact.

Debian testing is other distros stable release.

If you're running Debian stable, your hardware was probably too new for the kernel. Unless they changed their development paradigm when I last ran it, stable is always 2-3 years behind mainline Linux software aside from security patches. It's one of the key reasons why it's so stable.

See the Don't Suffer from Shiny Stuff Syndrome on the official wiki.

I was charged $450 for a doctor's signature on medication. They never even saw me. Fortunately, I was able to have it written off as not payable.

Most paradox games I've seen have an unlocker you can find online that just enables all the DLC.

It sounds like you'd be better off with a DE or WM that isn't gnome. The GNOME Project has been progressively sticking more and more of the customization features of the DE behind either gnome tweaks or the command line, likely to unify the experience for all users and improve the ability to provide support.

Personally, as far as gnome-based DEs are concerned, I prefer cinnamon, but I'm fine running Mint to just have it come pre-installed. I don't know what dependencies it pulls in now if you install it standalone from Mint.

Why are you white knighting for big US companies? They don't even know who you are outside of a personal identification number.
