Ellen Ripley, no contest.

No superpowers, no special training, no special technology. Simply the wisdom to see a job that needs done and the bravery and determination to do it.

Another vote for nextcloud.

Or synchthing if you want something that is serverless, but does not support sync on demand.

They are collaborating with the Iraqi and Jordanian governments to fight the Islamic State.

The US said the same thing about helping Czeckslovakia, then Poland, then Yugoslavia, then France.

Sticking your head in the sand to ignore a problem, does not do anything to address it.

You know it comes with a power button that will also switch it on for you? /s

The GOP would never be able to win the electoral college without Texas. So that’s why it will never happen.

But maybe we can trick Abbot, he might be stupid enough to fall for it?

It’s a lot better than having that CPU on Windows.

Yikes.

I thought it was the GNU wizards circle that decides these things.

Are you telling me I have been going to the wrong meetings?!

I swear this Linux fragmentation will be the death of it.

Unoccupied residential properties should be taxed at double the normal rate.

And any resident who stays in the “hotel” is classified as a resident. No dodgy the taxes by calling it a hotel.

Then why is the bubble curved and not flat.

Checkmate flerthers!

Not following the recipe correctly:

The oil goes in first

It’s also a reflection of how much money you will be spending on each ecosystem

I don’t know Blender, but from experience I found that Manjaro/arch is a bit too bleeding edge for production use. Especially when it comes to non-gaming graphics. I experienced a lot of problems with Manjaro and GPU acceleration in video editing suites. All got solved when I switched to Linux Mint.

Similarly Zorin OS 17 has been good to me. I really like their approach to the Gnome UI (i.e. they kept the newest tech, and removed the space wasting UI components.

The Ubuntu based distros typically have fewer bugs as they typically have an older base.

Fedora is also a decent middle ground.

I would suggest logging a ticket or forum post with Blender on this. It could be a blender bug or a graphics bug, but they would be the best people to advise.

I would favour an AMD Ryzen 7000 based laptop. Much better battery life than Intel and better graphics performance.

Lenovo ThinkPad T and P series are excellent build quality.

Asus Zenbooks or Expertbooks with OLED screens are also excellent. Displays are on par, or superior to Macbooks. Excellent colour accuracy.

Make sure you get something with at least 16GB of Ram, or 32GB if available.

Everything is improved if you put a cross guard on it.

DRM only affects paying customers. It plays no role in effectively combatting piracy.

Only good service and good pricing is effective against piracy.

Apartheid, of a sort yes.

Genocide, not even close.

Oppression and occupational yes

Correct, Hershey’s is not for human consumption.

It was the worst thing about my holiday in America. The chocolate is universally terrible. Way too sweet, rough texture and chemical taste to the dairy content (something in the milk used).

You are what you eat after all.
