It’s very important to pick the best of the available options rather than throw your vote away. Nice work!

We have an extremely flawed system. But, a person gives up the potential to do good if they simply give up on voting entirely or vote for candidates that aren’t viable.

Thinking about not voting? Why don’t you think about those crazies that are absolutely going to vote.

Do you want those people in charge of your future?

I’ve seen the opposite of this happen way more often. In fact, I think we should take care to let people speak on these issues without diminishing or having another issue hijack the discussion.

Anyone should be able to talk about their issues without being told that it doesn’t matter because there’s some other issue.

Upvote though because I like the discussion.

Uncle Mark: I’m dead 💀💀

CEOs are not good people.

That’s because they don’t actually have principles.

I can think of one vampire that definitely still counts.

Pathetic.

I would solve this problem with QEMU and change the definition of the instruction to generate IR for the flawed behavior. I would force it to use software emulation of course as this would no longer properly be the x86 architecture.

I don’t know of any software that does that by default.

Very strange to me how they think about them so much. Same thing with the kids.

I agree with the article. FTC must be doing their job.

I actually recognize usernames and people try to write thoughtful responses the vast majority of the time.

This feel could change, but for today, it is so.

Tiny Core Linux is a minimal Linux kernel based operating system focusing on providing a base system using BusyBox and FLTK. It was developed by Robert Shingledecker, who was previously the lead developer of Damn Small Linux.

Ah, that explains a lot! Didn’t know about TCL.

Hm? Do you mean a link to builds that are this small? My midrange Intel i5-12600K (I’m a working man, doc…) L3 cache is 20,971,520 bytes. My Linux Mint (basically Ubuntu kernel) vmlinuz right now is only 14,952,840 bytes. Sure, that’s a compressed kernel image not uncompressed, but consider this is a generic kernel built to run most desktops applications very comfortably and with wide hardware support. It’s not too hard to imagine fitting an uncompressed kernel into the same amount of space. Does that help to show they’re roughly on the same order of magnitude?

Ten years old kernels could be 2 MB.

Bit late with that one, eh NYT?

Good job on voters casting those ballots. The votes actually voted matters infinitely more than the polls, even though they’re interesting.

I’ve seen builds of the Linux kernel that comfortably fits in my on-die CPU caches.

So it would just be a picture of an empty sofa.

One of the most iconic and best-looking games consoles of all time.

Not indexing at zero seems like a waste of a perfectly good integer.

The best thing Stein could do for the environment right now is to quit.
