I believe the FairPhone is pretty solid.

Not as good, but Apple stuff is a big step up from Google and Samsung stuff wrt spying.

Depends on what the deployment is, if it is just airstrikes or even limited ground operations to break a few things and leave, no reason for it to be a forever war.

Note: I have made zero statements about that being something I would support.

from a, a coworker and b, a manager

A coworker and a manager at your company gave you advice about your job?

If that is the case, you should take it seriously. Make sure you know why they think their suggestion is better than what you are doing. You don’t know everything, there is a darn good chance they are trying to make you better at your job.

If it isn’t about your job, you should still make sure you know why they think their suggestion is better than what you are doing. Other people do know things you don’t.

I normally just cut it in half and scoop out the insides. Peeling one of those is a PITA.

No penny pincher is still buying food at McDonald’s. That place is expensive as fuck.

Exactly, they will use nickles. It’s a non-problem.

Option 1: When you go to their website for the flathub link, it takes you to a download for a .flatpakref file. Dowload that and run it. It will open the Software Manager to the gopher64 entry. If it isn’t opening with the software manager for some reason, tell it to open .flatpakref files with the Software Manager.

Option 2: Search for gopher64 in the Software Manager.

Gotta wonder what just parking all these gas guzzlers on the south side of the Equator is costing us.

This is a really weird criticism in an article about a nuclear-powered carrier.

I can confirm M.2 to PCIe adapters work for booting Windows. Had both my Linux drive and Windows drive each in a separate one when I used to dual boot. Then I would swap out which adapter was in the computer to switch OS.

I haven’t plugged the Windows one in in a loooong time, but wanted to mention the option since it would do what you want.

Yeah, Steam in-home-streaming is great and is something I have used on many an occasion.

Game streaming over the internet is simply miserable.

Customers have roundly rejected game streaming. If streaming is the only way to play a game, that game will see a colossal hit in sales. This won’t be acceptable to companies trying to make money.

Pedant thought: The thumbnail shows one biting everywhere but the bullet.

I’m a big fan of the Keep It Simple (KISS) approach, and went with Password Safe. Works on Linux, Windows, MacOS, iOS, and Android. It’s big thing is it just makes an encrypted password file which then you can sync between devices however you like (Box, Dropbox, etc)

Which one works on all browsers including mobile safari and mobile Firefox?

It has an auto-type and copy feature, so no need for browser support. Though, the main criticism of this offering is if you want a ton of features and don’t care about KISS.

Protip for the room: Use a password manager with a unique password for every service. Then when one leaks, it only affects that singular service, not large swaths of your digital life.

Kroger is a public company, the presented numbers are their financials. Everything you mention is part of how they squeeze out a measly 1.5% profit margin. There isn’t much to cut for the private store or the government store.

The other commenter brought up Kroger. A grocery store that operates on a 1.5% profit margin.

That’s not true

I don’t know what to tell you. 1.5% profit margin is razor thin. There isn’t anything to cut for the private stores or the government stores.

Kroger’s revenue is $150B, with a net income of $2.3B. That is a profit margin of…1.5%. One-point-five percent profit.

As I said, grocery stores operate on tiny margins. There isn’t much to cut either for the private store or the government store.

gross margin in 2024 was 22.3%

Gross margin is not profit, it only accounts for direct costs of the goods being sold. Hence why their profit is only 1.5%.

Beat out other grocery stores so prices drop to compete.

Grocery stores operate on extremely thin margins. There isn’t much to cut either for the private store or the government store.

We have that already, it’s called Linux Mint.

Don’t overthink it.

The good news is. Even if you don’t change your strategy, you can just chill on index funds. When the bubble pops, they will go down, just keep buying more. In the long term, you will still make money. US index funds earn ~8% per year on average when invested for long periods of time.
