Which is weird given IBM's WWII history.
This is awesome. I'm looking at all the stuff my VPN mates are downloading and they have good taste.
I've got two physically different drives. Can't say I've ever installed two OS's on the same disk.
My Linux system can modify my windows drive without any problems, but my windows OS can't even see my Linux drive. I'm thinking that this might be because windows can't read ext4 formatting.
If you use two physically separate drives, you can set boot order in your bios, so it's like having two completely different machines. Over the years I boot to windows less and less, only really keeping it around for FPS games that need anti-cheat software, and for VR stuff.
I'd dual boot. Get one drive for Windows, and another for a Debian distro like Ubuntu. If you're new to Linux then there's a good chance you could mess up and accidentally kill your display by updating drivers manually or something. By having another OS that you know on hand, you always have something to fall back on while you figure out what you just did.
Social Security Insolvent in less than 10 years:
Ofcourse Social Security will never 'truly' be insolvent, legally speaking inflows will just divided to outflows. Payouts are already pretty low since CPI has been mucked with over the years.
Pensions are rare simply because union participation is down, and it saves a lot of money for businesses. As this article states that process started in 1980... when you know, millenials started being born:

And finally, stats from the Federal Reserve itself: https://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/z1/dataviz/dfa/distribute/chart/#quarter:135;series:Net worth;demographic:age;population:all;units:levels;range:2008.2,2023.2
As you can see, being under 40 kinda sucks, and the oldest millenials are about 43. Keep in mind that "millenial" is a bit subjective, the oldest "millenial" could be 38 as well.
The comment above isn't "bait", it's objective reality for many Americans.
Huniepop is just a legitimately decent game.
Also, Deep Space Waifu was a gift and I'm keeping it
I started typing, and realized I have too many opinions about this. I'm sorry.
Vinegar is decent at dissolving sugar, and in that context it works really well for what it is. I usually buy a big jug of it for both cooking and cleaning, but a general purpose cleaner it is not. Side note, adding a small amount to ground meat helps the meat flow a bit better for meat pies or taco mix.
For grease and grime cream of tartar works really well. I cook with stainless steel and sometimes egg or something will burn and stick to a pan. I throw a whack of cream of tartar in the pan along with some water and the pan will pretty much self clean on the stove.
If you're doing dishes by hand because dishwashers aren't meeting your expectations, there's a Technology Connections video about using dishwashers that's worth a watch if you've got 45 minutes to spare and don't mind watching a midwesterner beat a topic to death in the best way possible. Eco-friendly powders exist. Really, the appeal of a dishwasher is to use the mechanical force of water to clean.
For purely antibacterial you just ain't gonna beat alcohol. I mean... it's used at hospitals. For glass cleaning a 50/50 mix of distilled water and pure alcohol won't leave streaks.
A mix of lemon juice and baking soda will get rust stains out of some surfaces. Baking soda paste, followed by some vinegar will clear out toothpaste in a drain.
Probably the harshest chemical I use is bleach, but I only use that for the toilet. Easiest way to clean porcelain by far, and you don't need that much... and really it's kind of a set and forget thing.
It's not exactly a switch you can just flip off, and your loved one probably doesn't think they have a problem. Personally, The amount of time it took for me to start pumping the brakes to quitting 100% was about 2 years.
What I know now, and what it took me so long to figure out, is that I can't have the same relationship with alcohol that you might see in movies/tv. I'd quit for a couple days, maybe even a week, and then I'd drink on a Friday and inevitably I'd take it too far, and then I'd be drinking again. I thought a "healthy" relationship with alcohol was possible for me, and it simply isn't.
I also didn't realize that I had formed so many habits around my drinking. Hanging out with friends? Gotta drink. Doing my hobbies? Drink. Feeling thirsty or hungry? Drink. Feeling anxious? Again, drink. Giving up drinking would throw me into a very very deep depression, because I couldn't find enjoyment in anything anymore.
What really helped me out was weed/delta 8 gummies. I would come home after work, and I'd be super depressed, and all I'd want to do is lay down in bed and not move. I'd eat half of a pretty strong weed gummy and watch bad anime... and that was enough to tie me to my bed and not drink. Over the course of months I then had to relearn how to find enjoyment in anything.
In retrospect, giving up drinking was the best decision I ever made. I didn't fully appreciate how awful the long term effects of alcohol are, and how much of a general malise it put me in. After the first year of not drinking at all, I lost a ton of weight, I started sleeping better, and I was sooooooo much less of an anxious mess. But you need to understand what you're asking of this person... you're asking them to take the first step in a months long depressive slog where they have to relearn how to live like a normal person.
My advice to you is to imagine you're dealing with a profoundly depressed person who's only barely keeping it together. Do you want to have a screaming match with a depressed person while they're trying to get a few scraps of enjoyment in their life at night? Do you want to make an already depressed person cry when they're their most venerable during a hangover? Your goal should be to convince your partner that giving up drinking is what they want, and take it from there.
Cody's resignation letter was provided to the I-Team by the newspaper's attorney. The email was sent from Cody's private email account to Marion Mayor David Mayfield's private email.
I don't think the article really brought enough attention to the above sentence. There is already a business record showing that public duties are being performed using personal emails.
The police abused this poor child... and they call him a terrorist. If the parents of this community had any sense they'd pull their children out of the school immediately.
This example is pretty good. I'm stealin' it.
