For me, the issue is not being alone, or quiet. I don't even own a cell phone. It's everyone else with the incessant noise; non-stop music; speaker/video calls; and now AI talking …

It's been a long, long time. I think Red Hat 8/9 (from 2002-2003) had a default KDE build. Even in Fedora Core 1 Gnome was default. Now, there's a separate build to download for KD…

It's been well known for awhile now that it's his preferred setup. He seems to want as much stability as possible; while being as minimal as possible; with as little fuss to instal…

There is a media difference though since the DCA crash. Military and small planes ( On a personal level, I know three people that have died in small plane crashes in the Alaska wil…

4 in the last year (365 days), not calendar year.

No, it's not worse. If you look through the list of deadly plane accidents, the last year has been average (4 vs. 3 avg). Since the deadly DCA collision in January, there are thing…

And there were 7 in one year during 2018 and 2019. Looking through the chart you linked, averages around 3 per year. Considering how many planes are currently in the sky at this ve…

I mentioned this in another parent comment: Tunhannock doesn't even need a bond, they can easily pay for it just with what the town has made from gas extraction in the last 15 year…

> Solar has won the market's backing. Whatever Pennsylvania politicians decide, they better take that into account. I would argue it really depends and is highly dependent upon the…

As a Pennsylvanian with a personal connection to the school district in the article, there are several things not mentioned that are critical to this conversation: 1. Tunhannock is…

There are still plenty of reasons to use X11, mostly for software that doesn't support Wayland yet.

First thing I thought of too when I saw he died. Homer's random knowledge of Supreme Court Justices mentioned throughout the years never ceases to amaze me.

There was one point I was trying to make, you said there are no locations currently near you, I posted three, plus mobile units. There is also no selection bias. I said that in the…

Not to be snarky, but I grew up in ChesCo, and could've sworn there were donation centers way back even in the 90's, near KoP and West Chester. https://www.giveapint.org/ Locations…

Where at? Where I live in Pennsylvania, and not the most populated of areas, there are at least 3 groups open all the time for donations (two local Hospital systems and the regiona…

Please keep in mind, these lists are usually completely arbitrary and have very loose definitions of "school shootings", based around the usual theatrics of security and terror the…

I agree. Subaru did have them for a bit in the early-mid-2000's. I had it in our 05 Forester. Stock radio. Our 2011 Outback and my mother-in-law's 2017 Forester lacks it though. No…

This was fascinating and lead me down the "Oldest Companies" Wikipedia. However, I was watching the second video linked in the article made by Endevr and it just sounds like it was…

For non-Americans (and Americans) that don't quite understand what SSN is and why it's a problem, CGP Grey [1] has a great (and short) video about the history and why it's not tech…

If they have your address; birthday; and SSN a whole lot. Generally, they could apply for credit cards; loans; set something to bill to you; etc... Fortunately, it's getting harder…

Yeah, I thought so too (since they're only moving from COS signed to RH signed), but it's hard to describe. I've had everything from proxy issues; to python; to PHP-fpm breaking af…

Disaster for us too, not VPS but VMs on-prem.
