You could probably snag a 2070 for 300 or less, the rest of your hardware should be fine, maybe an NVMe M.2 SSD for boot and storage (you can get a 1TB for < 100 these days)

I think we got lucky on it that John Deere and Car companies have been trying to ruin repairability long before it was cool.

And "right to repair" is a nice simple slogan, even the most rural person in America can hear that and will probably go "Fuck yeah I should have the right to repair my car!"

 

Summary
Officials from Putin’s United Russia party in Murmansk gave meat grinders to mothers of soldiers killed in Ukraine during International Women’s Day.

The gift choice drew criticism as "shameful" and "inappropriate" because the term "meat grinder" (myasorubka) is commonly used to describe Russia's brutal frontline tactics of sending waves of soldiers into battle with high casualty rates.

Party officials defended themselves, claiming one mother specifically requested a meat grinder.

Russia rarely discloses casualty figures, but independent sources have identified at least 91,000 Russian soldiers killed, with US estimates suggesting 700,000 killed or wounded. Ukraine has reported over 46,000 of its soldiers killed.

A Voyager reference out in the wild! LMAO

 
 

US House Republicans unveiled a spending bill Saturday that would keep federal agencies funded through 30 September, pushing ahead with a go-it-alone strategy that seems certain to spark a major confrontation with Democrats over the contours of government spending.

The 99-page bill would provide a slight boost to defense programs while trimming non-defense programs below 2024 budget year levels. That approach is likely to be a non-starter for most Democrats who have long insisted that defense and non-defense spending move in the same direction.

Sure, if you're not multitasking and running uninterruptible or PITA-to-get-going-again processes or are just in a good flow where it'll take way more than 20 seconds to reopen all the programs you had running and breaks it

Linux is almost like cheating, where is the fun? The sport? The challenge‽

Sometimes it's not about the destination, but the journey 😌

Yup, the military is above all infatuated with tradition. Fucking around with that is.... monumentally stupid

While still buying a lot of natural resources from Russia.

Shit like that takes years to wean off, can't just throw the breaker on that without building up its replacement and infrastructure first and gradually transition
