This post is misleading. This scenario will only happen after all the ice is melted in Antarctica causing a >200ft sea level rise, which would take at least a couple millenia of extreme global warming to happen. There will be beachfront property slipping into the sea by 2075 with a lot of ecological and economic consequences involved, the NOAA has given us a neat little tool for visualizing what's to come. https://coast.noaa.gov/slr/#/layer/slr

I just flipped through the introduction of a GIMP book that the authors hoped 3.0 would be out so they could cover it but ultimately based the book on 2.6 due to delays. It's copyright 2012, apparently something (didn't) happen.

On my RTX 3080 laptop I get a significantly lower frame rate on my laptop screen (240hz) and 4k external monitor (144hz) when using Wayland. Wayland has come a long way but I'm still going to be using X11 for at least the near future.

I'm just glad that it exists at all. Google has Chrome tied down on Android because they feel they can.

Source? I never heard fundamentalism was coined as an alternative to saying conservative. Fundamentalism could be described as conservative but I don't think the 1920s fundamentalists were trying to avoid that in any way.

I see conservative men getting with conservative women all the time, if they're complaining about nothing being available they need to look at themselves in the mirror or look in different places (maybe hip, urban environments aren't the best places to date for conservatives?) Switching up politics isn't some magic solution to getting laid.

Might not be a popular take but having an undefendable position like creationism does not necessarily mean "poorly educated." There are apologists who have learned proper reasoning skills and use their education to bend reality as much towards their will. I think most people would consider Jesuits and the like to be very educated but also very wrong.

As far as signs that someone is poorly educated, there are people who make up "big words" to give the impression of having a better education to other poorly educated people. Which backfires when someone with an actual large vocabulary walks into the room.

I still buy some stuff off there but have been using it less, orders over $25 have free shipping, they still want you to spend money with them even if you're not paying for Prime. Walmart is faster and cheaper for certain things, especially food/pantry items but they are just as evil. I don't have a Costco membership but they have good deals online from what I can tell, wish they had a physical store in my town that would make it more worth it. If you find a vendor on Amazon that has something you like you could search for that vendor's actual website online and order directly from them.

The only attention I see him getting are from alternative medicine whackjobs that are voting for Trump anyways. He seems to have no appeal to anyone who actually votes for Democrats.

I think a lot of activist organizations have yet to realize the old way of going to the courts to get the laws thrown out might now actually be 'the old way' and may no longer be relevant. I'm scared how our Supreme Court will change things.

He has his problems but I'm particularly concerned about the "GPL2/3 or later" clauses in a lot of GPL-released software and how the absence of his leadership might compromise it. I'm sure a lot of corporations would like to see a good chunk of GPL'd software end up under an MIT-style license.

Enshittification has come to Amazon Prime too. Lots of people report that two-day shipping is flaky, Prime Video is very limited in its basic tier, the deals are a joke. If you spend more than $25 you get free shipping so what exactly are you getting with Prime besides it coming a day earlier? I dropped it and definitely don't miss it.
