I don’t believe in karma, but this would be exhibit A.

Your battery probably isn’t supplying sufficient voltage and your laptop is compensating. It is almost random chance in getting a good battery for a machine of that vintage. Using Linux will likely cause unexpected power off at low charge states.

Your best bet is to return that battery to the vendor and try another battery from another supplier.

The Saturn V was built by private capitalist corporations.

I think Darwin is still open source, and WebKit is still open source.

Of note is that if this is the command module, it was built by Rockwell, parts of which eventually become Boeing. So the stickies track.

My eyes glaze over battle passes. I simply can’t process them. I don’t understand what the pass is for, or why the blinkenlichten, or why I should pay for more blinken.

I did t get the etymology either. I am already battling, why do I need a pass? Is the pass like a road?

It just seems so stupid to me.

DooM 2 is my nostalgic fave. My area code had multiple free 20+ line BBSes, so I was constantly playing 4 player doom matches(more on heretic/hexen/descent etc).

Honorable mention for the new Doom and Doom eternal.

My current favorite doom though is doom seeker and zandronum. Keeping the dream alive with crazy mods. Megaman deathmatch and shotgun frenzy are a delight.

Because it’s IBM. They’ll roll this into “Watson” and send a team of consultants to implement it on a 2 year contract, and then one of the contractors will be socially engineered into giving away your data.

The VR wanking and gaming markets are too saturated for Apple to bother with. They want the VR computing market, which is essentially vacant.

I mean, it did. It made republicans even more averse to facts.

China has privately held space companies, yes. They are funding them, yes.

If you look at the Artemis mission and think starship is the weakest part of the plan, you are simply not being objective.
