Patch

Seems like a bit of a waste to launch an intercontinental missile at a country next door, on the same continent. Isn't Russia supposed to have plenty of short and mid range ballistic missiles? I guess they must be running low.

I was under the impression that ICBMs weren't all that great for conventional warheads. Their payload capacity isn't enormous and their accuracy tends to be relatively low- which matters not a jot if you're firing nukes (which do a lot of bang per kilo, and where a few hundred metres either way isn't likely to be critical), but not so great for dropping normal munitions.

For me it's MATE.

For some reason I've never really gotten on with XFCE. Tried it in earnest many years ago, and have dipped into it a few more times over the years, and for whatever reason it just doesn't gel with me. Always feels like I'm fighting it to get it to do what I want it to do.

MATE has the familiarity and comfort for anyone who spent serious years running GNOME 2. It's pretty much as lightweight as XFCE these days, but feels more polished and intuitive for it.

Ubuntu MATE is still one of my go-to distros for limited hardware (even though that project specifically seems to have stagnated somewhat in recent years).

The thing to remember about investing (forex or otherwise) is that it's an enormous global industry. One of the largest and richest there is. If you're a normal person, with a normal day job, tinkering around in the evening trying to pick stocks or write algorithms, just remember that there are countless thousands of professional, experienced, trained analysts all over the world doing the exact same thing 40 hours a week, week in week out.

There are no easy bucks to be made. If it was easy, it'd already be done.

and/or EU

I can't see the EU revoking access to Galileo just because Trump says so.

It seems insane to me that the US system lets you literally specify the exact judge (that you've already bought and paid for) as the only judge that can hear cases against you. And that the system is basically OK with this.

Bridgy Fed is pretty straightforward. You just follow the account and away you go.

It doesn't make your bridged posts particularly attractive-looking (essentially you appear as a bot under a subdomain of a server), but it's searchable and discoverable in the target network.

I'm now mostly using Blue Sky, but I bridge to Mastodon, so all my posts form part of the content that's available to fediverse users. For little old me that's not all that important, but if every big organisation or journalist or celeb did that too, that'd do a lot to build vitality into the fediverse network.

Sound's like somebody's got a case of beaver fever.

Speculation in the sense that the article says it's "suggested', and the source cited is "Mac Rumours".

Not sure why you're being so weird about it.

Apple made the transition a little easier for those who weren’t ready to give up on their wired headphones by including a $9 adapter. However, it looks like it could now be confined to the annals of history, as the Lightning to 3.5mm jack adapter has sold out in the US and other countries, suggesting Apple may have quietly discontinued it 

It says "sold out" and "discontinued". The latter is currently just speculation.

BSD is BSD-like

It certainly is that, yes.

I don't know why I forgot this, but there is of course already a solution for this; mbin/kbin, which has both Lemmy-like and Mastodon-like interfaces on one platform.

Not that I'm actually suggesting anything you understand. Just recalling that this is a thought process someone's already had at least once!
