Could they squeeze it until janaury 21st? Even January 20th actually. It'd be hilarious to see the goverment shut down on inauguration day so Trump's special moment is taken away.

I always go back to the original Age of Empires as a classic.

Overall, the mortality (death) rate for bird flu in humans is high — historically, about half of all people with known infections have died. But most recent cases in the U.S. have been mild.

This is a good thing in immunology, actually. Diseases with extremely high severity rates tend to not spread through a population because it incapacitates their host too quickly- Ebola is a classic example. Fucking insane severity, but bad to the point where it hasn't ever spread to epidemic proportions because it's super easy to recognize then isolate. Ebola outbreaks have been (mostly, sans 2014) limited to small geographic areas of small populations.

in the crypto space, the trading values of most coins are loosely tied to bitcoin's value- it's sort of a "reserve currency" of the cryptosphere, most major trading platforms focus on converting Bitcoin to and from other coins. If BTC goes up, the rising tide lifts most/all boats in the space.

Woah, and trump wants to set up a bunch of US bitcoin stuff that will massively pump up its value and give Russia free billions on their holdings?????

I never would have guessed!

Adding grapes to microwave setups doubles the magnetic field strength, opening doors for smaller, more efficient quantum sensors.

Really weird how all these old rich fucks only ever get "discovered' as pedophiles and rapists at the exact same time they become "mentally unfit to be tried".

If even half of Intel's claims are true, this could be a big shake up in the midrange market that has been entirely abandoned by both Nvidia and AMD.

My go to back in The Day was just Ubuntu because I was lazy. We're talking the 14.04/16.04 days. Ubuntu was simple and mostly just worked. I now find myself needing to de-spywareify as the coming administration is likely to force Microsoft into tracking "dissidents" so need to get back into weaning myself off the Windows teat.

I recently dualbooted my main desktop with Ubuntu 24.04 and have been... entirely underwhelmed. The whole separation between APT and snap packages doesn't work well together and is really the big problem I have, as a lot of standard deb packages just refuse to install properly now. the UI is hard to use and doesn't make me happy, and it's not been playing nice with my Zen 4 desktop when it comes to ACPI power states (no sleep, doesn't reliably turn the power off when i ask it to turn off, etc). So overall, I am just not terribly interested in using Ubuntu anymore.

What I primarily want is the sort of "mostly just works" like old 16.04 but still gave you the full ability to monkey under the hood- and is also something based on a normal distro that most people write guides for because I am a smoothbrain. Should I just head to using basic plain jane Debian or something?
