Hilton was also kidnapped and shipped off to several “scared straight” torture camps by her family as a teenager..
She had some horrible shit done to her, and apprently vowed to make her own money separate from her family. The vapid, “that’s hot” party girl persona was her succeeding.
Shes come out hard against what happened to her and tries to help current victims. She managed to get legislation passed to help them, but also takes a more direct approach.
I’ve never heard that pointer bullshit at all. Can you link it?
“Man” for “manual” is just an antiquated term kept around by Unix curmudgeons. “Help” is much better as it requires no explanation and conveniently is automatically abbreviated to its full name. It’s the common term used in most other systems that aren’t linux.
'Man" isn’t sexist, it just sucks.
Yes, we’ve had first master branch, but what about second master branch?
Cardio is good for you, bro.
At least lift some different rocks in some different ways.
The ceo is the son of one of the founders of Inuit, the turbotax/quickbooks company. Hes even on sliptgates board.
The owner is pure nepo and will never face any consequence for failure. Its pretty easy to see why they dont care about killing the company and fucking the employees.
Those 8.5 billion are producing all of that 100%. If you had 4 billion, it would be 45%.
They opened a restaurant yesterday. At 4:20 pm.
Yeah, a tesla restaurant. That’s the current distraction.
Its definitely not a Balatro killer, but its got a great gameplay loop, entertaining story, and looks to have real longevity.
Id say its closer to a whimsical slay the spire, personally.
There is a steam demo if anyone wants to check it out.
Sure dude. The above is why desktop Linux already dominates the businesses world. Everything is cloud based, which is why Linux desktop share is at 99% across all businesses, and not 6% across portable gaming consoles and nerd’s home PCs.
It’s not worth arguing with you when you’re making ridiculous assumptions and stating clear hyperbole.
Most businesses have Windows apps that are used all day every day
You’re mistaken.
I’m absolutely not, and arguing the point is hilarious.
You’re really trying to say that millions of businesses, employing billions of people, in thousands of industries ,are “totally just using browsers, bro.”
Come the fuck on.
The vast majority of people interact with workstations every day? I don’t think the vast majority of people have office jobs on earth, but I won’t belabor the point.
Those people that use a computer at work are using windows, or in rare cases, macs. Linux is almost non existent because the work ecosystem isn’t there, and likely wont be there because of office suites and other tooling.
No one uses Office applications on their local machines anymore.
Hilarious. Guess I’ll let the thousands of people I work with who I know use Office via an app know they dont exist.
Matter of fact, a large majority of all work is done in the browser. Computers have, for a long time, been glorified Facebook machines. Look at how many people use Chrome OS that doesn’t even support any local software at all…
Yeah to facebook machines, which is why most people don’t have PCs anymore when phones will do. The above doesnt apply to buisnesses, and im honestly baffled that you think it does.
Most businesses have Windows apps that are used all day every day, generally numbering in the hundreds or thousands depending on the scope of the enterprise.
Since they will stick on Windows because of this, and there are no more home pcs out there outside the gamer/nerds/granniss, the rapid Linux gain will drop off again, and that’s okay. The Linux eco system is vibrant, accessible and interesting. That’s enough.
Workstations are used at work, which is the main gist of my comment above.
Linux has picked up the low hanging fruit, i.e nerds and gamers who have actual computers at home. It wont win over some mythical “everyday home computer user” because they dont exist anymore.
For Linux to truly “snowball,” it needs a serious, fully seemless office replacement that has to be better than “odt by default” libreoffice. Until it can pick off the office clients, it will not win.
Still, it doesn’t need to. Pick up that nerd/gamer/granny dont care how she gets to chrome subset. That’s fantastic for linux, and will still drive innovation enough.
That isn’t Windows only advantage. It is “easier” to use in the sense that it has less choices, especially if you have been using it in business for decades. You know it well enough to get around, with no concerns about different app names/icons/etc. Im not talking about chrome ot adobe either, im talking “what is the folder program called and why does it look like that” problems.
Most people give no shits about computers. They use what they know, if they use it at all. It’s why “phones and the occasional tablet” are by far the majority of most people’s home computers now.
Linux wont win until it wins offices. That will be where the snowball starts. The greay thing though is linix doesnt need to “win.” It can just be excellent and continue to be a much needed check on capitalism’s race to constrain our freedoms by enshittifing everything they can for profit.
Pricing seems to be 10x cheaper than lithium per kWh.
The battery has no rare earth metal in it, just common iron, which dramatically reduces cost. The 100hr storage is also 10-20x what lithium is designed for. Downsides appear to be slow charge/discharge and size of the batteries.
It is most likely a hybrid “iron air for long term storage, lithium for spikes and fluctuations” grid battery makes the most sense. These combo setups wouls likely have drastivally better long term storage and pricing then the current norm of “just Lithium.”
