Microsoft has agreed to purchase all of the power from the reactor over the next 20 year
The original reporting sounded decent - Microsoft was spinning up a decommissioned reactor, everyone wins
This new reporting of they can't afford it makes it seem like a bad idea in its entirety

I agree it's dumb, but I'm also trying to understand how politicians think changing the tax rate for healthier or less healthy foods can possibly affect behavior in the USA when it's set up this way in stores
There's some evidence it somehow works https://publichealth.berkeley.edu/news-media/research-highlights/do-soda-taxes-work
But I've never known what I'll be taxed on a specific item
I was looking at a grocery receipt, and there are three different tax rates depending on the items. The receipt doesn't even specify which items are taxed at which rate - just the total at each percentage. I understand the goal of lower or higher taxes on groceries is to incentivize purchasing healthier options over more processed foods, but does it really affect purchasing decisions when the final price of the items is opaque to the consumer?

I mean, it's internally consistent with the inbetween too, for the first three:
They went Xbox, did a 360 to face the same direction, and re-released the Xbox 1

If your speedometer/tachometer is a screen instead of dials, it's extremely likely it's running Linux, too
So still somewhat useful in the auto space

All the "portless iPhone" rumors have seemed unlikely because of DFU mode.
If they can now enter DFU wirelessly from the initial bootloader in silicon, they might actually be close to a portless iPhone

Both GNU and GrapheneOS have staunch requirements and will accept no compromises.
This is a situation where their requirements don't align, so they'll never reach an agreement.
GrapheneOS, for example, is also strictly against making the Fairphone line of phones a little more secure because it doesn't meet all of their security requirements
In this case GNU won't certify GrapheneOS as fully open because it includes binaries that aren't open
The FSF is more along your line of improving the situation where they can

I'd used Linux a bit out of curiosity in the Windows XP era
Windows Vista came out and was completely unusable on the computers I or anyone around me owned. It was also harder to configure than Linux and the new UI looked worse than the Linux UIs at the time
So I switched and haven't been back to Windows since

If an attacker gets access to your system, they will be able to ensure you can't get rid of their access
It will persist across operating system installs
However, this requires them to get access first

How does one flash a ROM without unlocking the bootloader these days?
Shouldn't that break Android Verified Boot?
A pure GSI image could use a Google key, I suppose, but others shouldn't, right?
I’m considering trying out an immutable distro after using Tumbleweed for the last 6 years. The two major options for me seem to be Fedora Kinoite or uBlue Aurora-dx My understanding is that universal-blue is a downstream of Fedora Atomic So, the points in favor of Kinoite is sticking closer to upstream, however it seems like I would need to layer quite a few packages. My understanding is that this is discouraged in an rpm-ostree setup, particularly due to update time and possible mismatches with RPMFusion uBlue Aurora-dx seems to include a lot of the additional support I’d need - ROCm, distrobox, virt-manager, libratbag, media codecs, etc. however I’m unclear how mature the project is and whether it will be updated in a timely manner long term I’m curious what the community thinks between the two as a viable option
I'm not sure if this is an iOS bug or an issue with wefwef, but any time I select a text entry, I don't get a keyboard on an iPhone 13 running iOS 16.5.1 and wefwef 0.10.4. Is this a known issue?
I tend to lean towards melodic death metal and symphonic metal, so hopefully this fits!
