Comment Re:"Forever chemical" (Score 1) 60

Not only is it not misleading, but in many cases ... news reporters and others come up with some terminology that sticks
Did a scienstist come up with forever chemicals term or did someone else come up and run with the term because they thought PFAS is too technical?
In either case, someone was trying to convince people but the motivation also matters (if it is known)

I am from India and moved to United States. I can say definitively that the answer to this is a resounding YES Forces sex between a husband and wife is common.

Comment Re:Good Time to Try Linux! (Score 1) 104

I want to use Linux but currently my company uses VPN that is not compatible with L2TP/PAP. I cannot get it to work. Troubleshooting via forums, reddit and other websites has not helped. We do not have a true sysadmin or anyone knowledagble in terms of someone who can help us figure out the issue. This is the first problem that keeps me on Windows

It is almost like people had peace for 50 years and forgot what Russian govt is like. People like you make me sick to my stomach

Although historians say Putin’s assertions about the need to liberate Ukraine from the grip of neo-Nazis and genocide against ethnic Russians in Ukraine are false propaganda, the repeated assertions from Putin and other Russian officials had at least one American politician questioning aid to Ukraine.

“It’s shocking to me that Congress is so willing to funnel $14 billion in military equipment over and over again into Ukraine and you have to ask, is this money and is this United States military equipment falling into the hands of Nazis in Ukraine?” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said on March 22. We’ll explain what these claims are all about and why experts say they are misleading. https://www.factcheck.org/2022...

Comment Until Linux makes it easy to... (Score 1) 71

linux mint or any Linux Distro needs to make it easy to turn on / off show windows contents while dragging. The second I install any Linux Distro, I find myself on Google trying to find out how to "do this" / "do that" and that is why Windows as much as I dislike it will stay on the top of the install list.
