Many Christians believe that living together before marriage is wrong. Many conservatives are either Christian or appeal to Christian values (as they're both largely patriarchal and controlling; at least as practiced). This guy's conservative.
It's unclear who'll win the next US election. Zelensky wants support from whomever wins. Zelensky therefore has met with all the candidates who have a chance to win to try and bolster the chances of continued support.
Cori Bush (D-Missouri), BTW
State communication should not travel over private channels that can arbitrarily limit access to that State's communications.
This is 100% going to work with 0 consequences.
There actually was a wolf in that analogy. Just cause the villagers decided to ignore the warnings didn't make him not exist.

Tray-less microwaves have a spinning metal "stirring fan" below a plastic floor you set your food upon to mix the bounce path the microwaves take. Since they expose fewer moving parts to the end user they are easier to clean and more resilient making them a good option for commercial / high volume settings.
A microwave works by bouncing microwaves around the interior. Since the shape of the container doesn't change neither will the path that the bounced waves take. This can lead to hotspots in what you're reheating.
To mitigate this you have a few options:
- move the food around in the container so that different parts pass through different hotspots over time (this is what a tray does)
- interrupt the microwave path via a "stirrer fan" that sits below the microwave floor (this is what tray-less units use)
Both approaches redistribute the hotspots to maximize even heating. The efficacy of either approach will come down to the specific design of either unit, but a tray-less unit can be easier to clean, and with fewer moving parts exposed to end users can be a good option for commercial/high user count settings.
Each design accomplishes the same task of relatively even heating with few hotspots.

It's the only way I open the start menu. There is no faster way to get to what I want than Superkey and typing.
PS I have all my OSes set up similarly. OSx has spotlight, my GNOME and KDE are configured to launch searchable menus on Super, and my mobile launcher is set up to search when I swipe up.
Didn't he say the same thing last time? The problem is convincing him that he lost.
Arguably we should very much GAF if they are, since this is not a xtian nation.
In the discussion about the future of dGPUs being threatened by iGPUs I think it makes sense to consider only the devices for which dedicated GPUs are available or devices which exist as a dedicated alternative to the functionality provided by dedicated cards. That is to say you'll never find a dGPU in a phone and the demographic of gamers playing on their phone, while a majority, is fundamentally different and with fundamentally different games available than on a PC or console.
While not all PC gaming happens through steam and not all steam players submit the automatic survey it is a reasonable representation of the hardware in use across the PC gaming space as a whole.
Integrated GPUs are those that are built into a CPU or SOC. Dedicated GPUs are separate chips with their own resources. Many gaming laptops have both integrated and dedicated GPUs. There are no integrated Nvidia GPUs in the PC space (though the switch has one). Something like a 980m from back in the day is a dedicated GPU even if it was soldered to the same motherboard (and not all of them were). Likewise modern 4xxx series chips allow laptop gamers to still have a dGPU on the go.
I'm not saying that iGPUs don't have their place or can't play games. I'm saying that dGPUs are better at what they do and will continue to be desired for that. At the end of the day they are both GPUs. They do the same thing, but one of them does it better. If you're in a business or hobby that benefits from what GPUs were designed to do you will always want the one that can do it better.
Here's a list of the GPUs recorded in the Steam hardware survey. These are what gamers are actually using. Less than 10% of them are using iGPUs.
My 3080ti significantly out performs an Xbox. While you can game on a console you can game better on a PC with a dGPU. An iGPU will get the job done, but a dGPU today continues to outperform it and give you a better experience. I can play across 3 2k displays at 165Hz, or step up to native 4k, I can smooth framerates with raytracing on at a non upscaled resolution.
I play video games. Those aren't exactly niche.
It gives a false sense of security to beginner programmers and doesn't offer a more tailored solution that a more practiced programmer might create. This can lead to a reduction in code quality and can introduce bugs and security holes over time. If you don't know the syntax of a language how do you know it didn't offer you something dangerous? I have copilot at work and the only thing I actually accept its suggestions for now are writing log statements and populating argument lists. While those both still require review they are generally faster than me typing them out. Most of the rest of what it gives me is undesired: it's either too verbose, too hard to read, or just does something else entirely.
Show me an iGPU that will compete with my 3080ti.
