Yes, and that success largely comes at the cost of neglecting development in every town and city outside of commuting distance from London.

That's only true in the sense that liking scheme makes you become a language nerd

Honestly, +1 for Nation Builder. Generic isn't necessarily a problem. It gives space for the gameplay itself to define the game's identity, rather than its title.

I get that calling command line tools is a bit clunky, but python is always my go-to when shell scripting gets too painful

It takes 60 to pass a cloture motion to actually vote on a bill. This is necessary if somebody in opposition to the bill intends to filibuster. In the modern senate, one can filibuster simply by expressing an intention to filibuster. As such its often the case that a bill with any strong opposition in the senate does require a three fifths majority in favour to pass

Could be a non-native speaker using an LLM to translate with a specific tone

Could this be the party desperately seeking to replace revenue streams as donors abandon them en masse?

Debian 13.

Tried open suse, but on my laptop it was slow and loud and the battery would die almost instantly (had to make it hibernate rather than suspend if I wanted it to make it through the night).

Installed Debian 13 and it feels like a new laptop. Not sure what exactly made the difference between the two but I'm not complaining...

Probably not. Same way that increasing employers NI contributions will have led to slower wage growth (its too early to tell for sure I think)

Before we all jump ship to linux phones, is it possible that custom android ROMs can remove this feature?

I was referring to the text at the bottom of the press release:

By signing the petition you take a stand against a false narrative that downplays Africa’s vast size and diversity as the second-largest continent, reducing its perceived importance in global politics and economics. You can correct the narrative.

It seems to single out Africa because this campaign is led by Africa No Filter and Speak Up Africa. I just thought it was amusing that the campaign text mentions Africa repeatedly but only indirectly mentions south america when referring to the global south.

 

Was trying to install guix on top of fedora silverblue. It's kinda working, but not exactly stable...
