Yeah, I manage the infrastructure for almost 150 WordPress sites, and I moved them all to ARM servers a while ago, because they're 10% or 20% cheaper on AWS.

Websites are rarely bottlenecked by the CPU, so that power efficiency is very significant.

Sure, if she finds a lawyer who will work pro bono.

Even then, she and her son will be homeless for a long time before winning anything.

What happened was an attempted coup, where a mob of people was only two barricaded doors away from murdering most of congress.

The irony here is so thick, it's absolutely incredible.

I haven't said anything on the subject before, because I don't care very much, but I don't know what the alternative is supposed to be. It's not like someone who is that famous can walk into a public airplane without putting her own safety at risk and causing trouble for other passengers.

It's also well known that conservatives really hate her because she told her fans to vote and these memes are part of their effort to discredit her. Whether the point has any merit or not, it's obvious who started the trend and who it's helping.

When a leap second happens, unix time decreases by one second. See the section about leap seconds here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time

As a side effect, this means some unix timestamps are ambiguous, because the timestamps at the beginning and the end of a leap second are the same.

:w !sudo tee %

Of course that's impossible to remember, but you can just google "vim sudo save" or something like that to find it.

Close encounters of the racist kind is a good read. Here's the most relevant part:

Consider the H2 series “In Search of Aliens,” which, before its demise, promoted the work of Jan Udo Holey, a German writer whose antisemitic books have been banned across Europe. (Holey’s pen name, Jan Van Helsig, is a blunt Dracula reference, i.e. Jews are bloodsuckers.) The History Channel’s long-running series “Ancient Aliens,” meanwhile, features David Childress, whose books cite and build on the work of James Churchward, who promoted an ancient empire called the “lost continent of Mu,” whose “dominant race” was an “exceedingly handsome people, with clear white or olive skin.”

The history channel is entry level nazi propaganda.

I'm american and work right next to a roundabout. It gets a pretty low amount of traffic but I still see people stop in the middle or go around backwards all the time.

That said, I see drivers doing the stupidest things pretty much everywhere, so the roundabout isn't exactly making things worse.

I have no idea what that means, but it sounds accurate

I'm not familiar with the mods, but the combat was definitely rebalanced. Enemies scale with your level now, guns themselves were rebalanced, armor is on cyberware instead of clothing, and the new perk trees are more consistently useful instead of some perks being worthless and others being game breaking.
