More on who is really in the Epstein files from a source that is not Fox News.

You might need to rethink your class biases.

He's doing an outstanding job of gaslighting Democrats into immolating themselves. Larry Summers, gone. Bill Gates, gone, Obama's chief counsel Kathryn Ruemmler, gone.

"Hyatt executive chair Tom Pritzker steps down over Jeffrey Epstein ties" That's the brother of the Democratic governor of Illinois.

Then of course we have Andrew, (meme of the week, Get under the bus Andrew) and the Norwegian royal family isn't looking any better.

The Democrats have the problem and are projecting like mad trying to avoid facing it.

So all the energy you save with the electric bus you spend keeping the garage warm.

It still might make sense given the amount of hydropower you have up there. Or you could put a data center next to the bus garage.

Backup for my other statement.

And of course they fired him for revealing a fact that does not support the narrative.

Of course NPR had no intention of allowing him to publish an article critical of NPR anywhere.

The government doesn't need to directly control NPR when the network self-selects for sycophancy to the All-Glorious State.

That's three watts more than a 3.5 inch Maxtor hard drive from 2005 sitting in my junk box. I have a terabyte seagate that draws half that. I thought SSDs were supposed to save power. I'll blame it on the need for speed.

Games are likely a problem. The current Linux Mint runs just fine on a 2014 Mac Mini and most of those came with 8 GB. I don't know if the current Plasma desktop will run with integrated graphics that old. Picking and choosing may be needed.

Les Paul and Mary Ford as well as the early Elvis were in the '50s.

Country has been holding up well since the '90s. I just found Ella Langley for instance.

Heart and Fleetwood Mac have retired, Linda Ronstadt has lost her voice, yes, the situation is dire.

Then they came for the RAM.
Then they came for the flash memory.
Now they've come for the hard drives.

I'm sort of glad my computers are mostly antiques.

If the artist is that good it might be worthwhile.

I run Linux on several old Macs. The reason is Apple's famously short OS support span. And that is the issue here. The Intel mac Minis were sold through 2022. They do not support Tahoe, and Sequoia will only get the normal two years of security updates and half of that is gone already.

So the last ever update for a 2022 PC will be about September of 2027. As the man said, "I am not impressed." Installing Linux would solve the problem which you can do with an Intel box. The same issue will come up with the M1 soon enough. I think OS 27 will support M1, but I won't be surprised if it doesn't as the low end NPU with 8 GB of memory is not Apple's current direction.

What extra profits? Once everyone is unemployed there will be no profits. Movies are a luxury, not a necessity.

"I'm really hoping it's a case of the door not closing completely - where it's held closed but the car's sensor still reports it as open."

Very likely, my truck does that. The rear door is closed but not hard enough to satisfy the computer. Even worse the rear door is held shut by the front door which is latched so it couldn't open anyway.

So a slightly out of adjustment sensor combined with full hands while getting out results in not enough oomph into shutting the door to fully latch it to the computer's satisfaction.

"Macs need something like BootCamp so they can be used for Linux."

Just release the full hardware specifications so Linux doesn't have to reverse engineer everything.

The good news (which may now be obsolete) is that OS 27 was supposed to be a clean-up and bug-fix version. But now that is suddenly the great AI savior introduction. Can they fix more bugs than the AI will generate?

Silly question, of course not.

I disagree, the real question is are they ready to ban civilian air travel?

If no one is willing to give up that luxury then whatever posturing they do they are not actually worried.

They can recycle the cruise ships at the same time.

YouTube has a channel for Haulover Inlet. You can watch the big pleasure craft with 4 to 6 20 gph outboards going in and out of harbor. They aren't worried either.
