I am not sure it needs to be if the foundation is Mrna vaccines. At least that's the idea anyway.

I was just pointing out how much the government spent and, it was quite a lot.

The US spent 31.6 billion to develop, produce and purchase covid 19 mrna vaccines.

So the US is already spending a ton of money....

I think I would go with a 19 author study published in science over a bank report in May. MAY! How much data did they have? At least by December we could get some data to work with

But is doesn't matter what science says for you does it?

Really? Don't fuck with valve. I hate every single other launcher.

They are the ONLY game service that caters to Linux users. There are millions of Linux gamers, seems to me like the other companies are abusing their dominant position of using Windows to keep linux users out. How about that?

The real dystopia is that people are talking about fast food at all. It's garbage food. Realisticly it's always been the worst and often most expensive choice.

Four colleges simply met with their protestors, came to an agreement to not invest in companies supporting the war, and publicly call for peaceful resolution.

Why is it so damn hard for all the other ones?

Kind of balsy for a software company that is basically running a web page to replace office visits with a doctor.....

They thought the service they hired was the least expensive.

The Janitorial service is the one cutting costs because they are not the ones using the toilet paper and they only care about their bottom line.

Nicer paper means they lose the contract. Capitalism and somebody else's problem all the way down.

Ubuntu has caused me far more headaches and downtime than Arch. Go figure.

And to make this be a worthwhile comment: I wonder if it is because I use Arch (and derivatives) that Ubuntu causes issues. When something isn't right, I try and fix it. In Arch I can. In Ubuntu it seems like a dozen paper cuts to get there and it may not work in the long run anyway. Oh the Snap doesnt have foo compiled in? No problem I can add it to the snap directory. No, that didnt work. Ok I will remove it and bring in a .deb file. Dependencies not met. Fine, I will compile it from source..... and by that time I have wasted a TON of time.

What? Settings: search for search. Change default. Click find more search engines. It offers hundreds of them.

This was not hard, nor obfuscated.

I tried several models, several prompts, and the results have been surprisingly bizarre. I also was surprised there is no JR Bob Dobbs recognition. All I wanted was a classic 1950's TV salesman.

I am still active in several forums. They are great and have even more of a sense of community them they used to. People talk about the subject and even meet in person around the world.

I also host a forum for a different group. No ads either cause fuck that shit.

Thats not Gnome. You need to remove the glasses. Hair is not an option. Two eyes, mouth, nose. That's all you get. And you are not allowed to focus on all three, only one at a time can be shown.

I know how to turn off the notifications, but Plex should not nag me to rate things I have watched.

Lol at the JamBands headline. Was this show "lost"? Looks like there are 4 traded shows to choose from on Relisten alone....

Ah the headlines...... It is a good show... not Brents first as this article alludes to.

I have configured buckets and synced three joplin instances. One time it lasted a month. Another lasted a day. The most common error is *Got Metadata for Path but could not fetch content. * Anyone have any tips or tricks to getting this to work? I sure like concept, the best place to sync for me. And yes I can see the markdown file in the bucket so.....

I was out of country for the past month. I have access to two monitors, and I brought a keyboard, wireless mouse, and a small JBL speaker. It has been a pretty good experience. I have edited documents, images, and created PDF's. I can connect to jobs that require windows with a web browser to Azure Virtual Desktop. I have streamed live events, worked on my home servers, and it is always snappier than a windows machine. With a click I am back in handheld gaming mode playing SNES games, or Elden Ring.
