@jayblackisfunny @elonmusk There is an undeniable trend that denser cities tend to vote blue. I don't get the point that's being made here other than that rural areas tend to vote republican, which is an objective fact.
@LinusTech This is atrocious. The only reason I still pay for Prime is for Prime Video and free shipping, even though Prime shipping takes 1.5 weeks to get here at a minimum, and more often takes around 3 weeks. The one redeeming trait was Prime Video and now even that's going downhill.
@DrChrisCombs There is a legitimate reason for using that notation, though. If you were to input this expression into a program like Matlab or Octave, you would write 60/5*(7-4), and you need to know how that will come out. In this case, the answer is 36 because that's how PEMDAS works.
@diwankar_g @linux_deepin And trust me, Microsoft LOVES people like you. There aren't many things in life that generate money for free but selling consumer data collected on a machine they bought is one of those things.
@ctjlewis The great depression was a period of heavily decreased buying power. The post just points out that you'd have to work just under and hour at the federal minimum wage to afford a large fry at a restaurant known for being the most affordable.
@PicturesFoIder Headlight brightness is absolutely regulated. In fact, there are strict requirements for how bright your headlights can be and at what angles they can shine at.
@daboigbae There are definitely specialties that are rare for programming but being able to write code is a dime-a-dozen skill that's practically meaningless these days. Basic level coding isn't that hard.
@daboigbae Asking whether you use switch or if-else statements is like asking whether you travel by car or by plane; it completely depends on the situation.
@JamesJo28396355@Jeff_is_m_name@engineers_feed Then technically everything is an acid because that "dissociation" refers to H2O becoming H+ and HO- ions. The definition for an acid is anything with a pH less than but not equal to 7.
@linuxopsys Sadly I think dual booting is still a necessary evil, even with today's technology. Even though we have things like Proton to aid in game compatibility and wine for other applications, some stuff just refuses to work on Linux regardless and thus requires a Windows installation
