Probably not, but she won’t gut the EPA either, and the Biden administration did send out truckloads of money to deal with oil and gas emissions in the form of Climate Pollution Reduction Grants, so she is clearly the better candidate on this issue.

Also, the fact that they’re backed by a bunch of web3/crypto companies is not great. They say they’re not a web3 company, but it sounds like they’re building UI and tools specifically for Sui wallet and crypto games and letting users opt-out of these “features”.
I don’t want to touch that with a 10-foot pole.
Yeah, I need something to collaborate with my partner in realtime. We’ve got a hacky setup in Obsidian using dataview to join separate notes to a read-only one, so we don’t have collisions, but I would love something better.
Soundiiz -> last.fm or spotify playlist -> Newsbin or torrent + lidarr
If it does now, that might be an option. It didn’t when I got rid of Apple music.
That is true. Waydroid might work. No idea if you can get lossless through that.
I don’t think the Apple Music Windows app does lossless or hi-res either
As soon as one of these Obsidian alternatives has real-time collaboration and a mobile interface, I’m ready to switch.
To be pedantic (but I think it matters): it’s the software companies that don’t support Linux, not the other way around.
I think about this a lot, and my take is that Linux is waaayyy better if you have perfect or close-to-perfect knowledge of how the operating system works and what software is available. Similarly, I think an argument can be made for Linux being better if all you need is a web browser and you’re not using really unusual hardware.
Where things fall apart is for people who have very specific needs that are complex, even if they only need it 1% of the time, and they don’t have the technical knowledge to solve it with the power-user tools available. Microsoft has spent decades paying developers to handle these edge cases and ensuring GUI settings discoverability.
At the same time, schools and workplaces have taught people the design language of Windows, and the network effect of having so much of the world’s end-user PCs running on Windows means that there are vast resources available targeted at people without technical knowledge. At this point, for better or worse, Microsoft’s design language is the global default for non-technical people.
If a person never has to touch a setting because all they need is a browser, they don’t hit any friction and they are happy. If they need to do even one thing that requires them to dig into settings or touch the terminal, the difference from Microsoft’s design language is enough for that one frustrating experience to give them a bad taste in their mouth about Linux as a whole.
You could also use nixos-anywhere + disko. This is what I use. If you have SSH and root access to a linux machine, you can live swap to a NixOS installer, load a configuration over SSH, install and reboot. It gives a similar experience to Ansible.
I got the Cable Matters 8K model 102101
I have a 7900XTX and I use a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter to get HDMI 2.1. I can use 4K@120Hz and HDR on my LG OLED TV just fine with that setup. The only real limitation is 3 display outputs vs 4 if I could use the HDMI out for what it is meant for.
You have to decide what is more important to you: Linux compatibility or ray tracing and CUDA? There are other differences, but those are the big ones.
I don’t know about everywhere else, but in Colorado we are implementing “intensity” (emissions/production) regulation.
The intensity limits that are used currently are based on estimated emissions and reported production projected into the next decade. It’s a very crude system based on flakey data, but we’re working on getting better data for the next time we decide on an allowed intensity level.
There are soooo many problems with this setup, I could go on for days about it, but in lieu of enough political will and funding to start shutting down oil and gas companies, we’re going to do everything we can to reduce the emissions from the oil and gas sector.
I hope enough people get mad and organize to make that happen.
ZFS all the things. On my workstations, I wipe / on every boot except for the files that I specify, and I backup /home to my NAS on ZFS and I backup my NAS snapshots to Backblaze.
That’s true, but because oil and gas emissions are stochastic in nature, it’s expensive and difficult to get enough measurements from airplanes and drones to really fill in the gaps. There are also only so many planes available that can do this kind of measurement. MethaneAir is one. The state of Colorado has funded these kinds of flights, but only for a few weeks per year and only for a small subset of the oil and gas industry in the state.
These flights also have to be planned long in advance and it’s difficult to react to emissions seen from satellites. This part will hopefully improve as time goes on.
Even if we stopped giving out drilling permits and closed all marginal wells tomorrow, emissions would continue to increase. There are lots of oil and gas facilities that have permitted wells that they haven’t drilled yet, and newer facilities that will probably emit more as they age.
Actively reducing emissions in aggregate over the whole country, not just reducing the rate of increase in emissions will either require a lot of time or decisive action from Washington to force states to cancel permits and ban drilling, which is pretty clearly not going to happen without a massive shift in political leanings in the House, Senate, Presidency, and the courts.
It fucking sucks, but without massive political pressure I don’t expect much on the federal level anytime soon.
In the meantime, vote for state candidates this cycle that say they will do the most, and pressure them to do the most they possibly can and don’t ever let up.
