For the record: numerous women have spoke out against Trump for sexual misconduct while underaged. All the named ones are from Miss America or Miss Universe competitions. A couple of Epstein’s victims have filed charges against Trump too but those remain anonymous.

It hasn’t been released yet. WSJ only got to look at the original which I believe is still in the DOJs possession.

Late as usual.

You’re either citing some failed new deal policy or various libertarian myths that the government still pays farmers to destroy their crops.

When there is such a supply is too high and the demand is too low, farmers will destroy their own crops instead of taking them to market. This is because the price of the crop is lower than the price of actually taking it to market. This is bad for two reasons:

1 There could still be a real “demand” for the product just not an “economic” demand. IE people don’t have the money to pay for the crop such as in the Great Depression or the COVID pandemic.

2 Food is the primary good you want as abundant as possible in any economy at the lowest prices. Other such goods are steel, energy, railway transport, ie goods that other markets depend on. That runs contrary to the interests of the producers of those goods. They want to hit the sweet spot where profit is highest. The two main solutions for this are subsidies or nationalization. For example, China has nationalized steel production and rail transport which they intentionally operate at a loss for the benefit of the rest of the economy.

They currently do need subsidies to be profitable. Farmers destroying their own crops to raise prices is a well documented historical fact and it still happens today particularly when it comes to livestock. This is not my abstract conjecture.

Many of food staples cannot be produced at a profit without subsidies, corn in particular. Since all of our farms are for profit farmers will destroy their crops Grapes Of Wrath style to drive up prices.

Its blatantly contemptuous but not ‘out of touch’. His base would be hooting over this if they weren’t pissed at him over Epstein.

Only would happen if he slashes corn subsidies which would be way dumber than the tariffs he first proposed.

Its just an annoying captcha.

I don’t want to fault people for avoiding Arch’s instability in general but this is a very minor issue.

VLC is not a system critical package. I absolutely understand the mods choice to not put it in the RSS. At most they could put a notice in the pacman logs when it updates.

Ya’ll gotta read the whole thing because its genuinely desperate.

Interesting read. It sounds like that issue came upstream from Debian not Ubuntu though.

deprecating ffmpeg for half a year

*btw

Not them but for me its LUKS on LVM for desktops. For laptops, archinstall with LVM on LUKS is sufficient.

SNAP BAD

Delete the leading spaces from your list items. Four leading spaces causes them to be formatted as code blocks.

About 10 years ago it was The Distro for first time linux users to prove they were a True Linux Enjoyer. Think a bunch of channers bragging about how they are the true linux master race because they edited a grub config.

Before Arch that role belonged to Gentoo. Since then that role has transitioned to NixOS who aren’t nearly as toxic but still culty. “Way of the future” etc.

All three of have high bars of entry so everyone has to take pride in the effort they put in to learn how to install their distro. Like getting hazed into a frat except you actually learn something.

The Ubuntu hatred is completely unrelated. That has to do with them being a corporate distro that keep making bad design decisions. And their ubiquity means everyone has to deal with their bad decisions. (snap bad)

The UAE is very much doing its own thing in Sudan. The world is becoming multipolar and the UAE is going to be one of the smaller poles.

• Stacking (aka floating) window managers provide the traditional desktop metaphor used in commercial operating systems like Windows and macOS. Windows act like pieces of paper on a desk, and can be stacked on top of each other. For available Arch Wiki pages see Category:Stacking window managers.
• Tiling window managers “tile” the windows so that none are overlapping. They usually make very extensive use of key-bindings and have less (or no) reliance on the mouse. Tiling window managers may be manual, offer predefined layouts, or both. For available Arch Wiki pages see Category:Tiling window managers.
• Dynamic window managers can dynamically switch between tiling or floating window layout. For available Arch Wiki pages see Category:Dynamic window managers.

Mac and Windows window managers aren’t different from Linux window managers. (Other than being difficult or impossible to replace). What you are calling “window managers” are software that reposition the windows after the actual window manager has positioned it.
