It's the computer equivalent of stopping the microwave when it's done but hasn't yet beeped.

When I used Arch I updated once and it removed the running kernel and its modules. So when I plugged in a webcam it didn't work, since the module was gone.

Not a catastrophe, but it was an off-putting user experience coming from Debian. Arch felt more like a desktop OS, Debian feels more like a server OS to me (updates generally warn/confirm when you need to restart services or the machine).

To each their own! Having more up to date stuff was a nice perk of running Arch, certainly.

I want a button that skips back 10s, turns on subtitles, and then turns off subtitles when we're back to where we started.

Property can take a while to close


offer to title in under 30 days is on the quick side.

Of course, you could probably close very fast if you offered 100M cash on a 10M property...

I'd love to see something like ballot included in tax returns (for folks who don't otherwise request a ballot). Near-mandatory voting, with abstaining being allowed.

One of the nice things about post-pandemic life where I am is the normalization of wearing masks if you're sick, vulnerable, or just feel like it. Someone shows up at work


or on public transportation


with a mask and no one bats an eye.

(I'm in the USA in a very blue, VHCOL area, YMMV...)

Is there any automation available for this? Do you fix them sequentially or can you parallelize the process? How long did it take to fix 450?

Real clustermess, but curious what fixing it looks like for the boots on the ground.
