Agreed as far as nutrition is concerned.

Look at the cholesterol and fat-related "common wisdom" they promoted for decades: saturated fats bad, animal fats bad because cholesterol, etc.

Meanwhile I looked at my biochemistry textbook where the biosynthetic pathway for cholesterol began with Acetyl-CoA, which means that almost everything can be a precursor for cholesterol in the organism, be it carbohydrates, proteins, sugars, anything. The corollary for this is that should you want to reduce your cholesterol levels, a more appropriate course would have been to lower your calorie intake and perhaps a strategy to block cholesterol reabsorption on the digestive tract (the enterohepatic cycle) than just seeking a "low-fat" diet.

Today this perception was corrected, but it was sacred dogma for decades despite it conflicted with the basic facts of human biochemistry.

Please see this video after 50th minute. It shows that Dimorphos has approximately doubled in size. This is an animation compressed 500 times according to the authors, so it seems that this process happened quickly. It can be seen from it that such an increased size remained unchanged, which indicates the "hanging" of the ejection near Dimorphos. The fact that it did not fly far indicates the relatively large size of the ejected fragments.

Do you give money to your parents because they need it (i.e poverty), or because it's a cultural thing?

Here in Norway, it's more or less unheard of to give money to your parents, unless they're financially screwed (in other words, debt) - but that's usually a very temporary thing.

But I've worked with people from all over Asia, and many of them would regularly send money back home. Especially Indian co-workers would send significant sums back home.
This is a cool project and I am happy to see interest in this sort of thing.

Too bad though that general purpose SBC's kind of suck for NAS/Storage though. Both the rpi4 and orange pi zero mentioned in the project lack any kind of SATA port and relies on usb to sata.

The best project I saw was the Helios4/Helios64 (https://kobol.io/), but sadly, they folded in 2021. Is there anything even remotely similar around?

Right now I am still using intel-based mini-pc's for diy NAS storage as they simply work better.

Thank you for trying to provide a workable solution, it's really not bad, but it has some downsides for me. pipx itself is installed inside a python environment, so when brew breaks my pythons, it breaks pipx as well. Anytime brew breaks my pythons, I would need to do the install step again for every script (or write a tool myself which does it). Not a total deal breaker, but not really much better than my current situation which pretty much just assumes any version of `requests` or `fire` is acceptable. Because python itself is constantly being updated to break the base python environment on my machine, a workable solution would need to include the fact that the base python environment might need to have things installed.

> Drive it until it’s primary worth is scrap.

But that means selling it for scrap, which is still not "throwing it away".

Besides, a car that's 30 years old is still worth more than scrap, and even then, scrapped cars are still sold for money.

So, no, there are very few people either throwing or giving their cars away after driving it for however long it lasted.

Former (US) tax lawyer here. You can give up to the maximum allowable gift amount each year, to each of your parents. If you are married, your spouse can do the same (for your parents and their own). This year, the annual gift amount is $17,000, which means you can give up to double that ($34k), and you + spouse can give up to quadruple that ($68k) to your parents.

I never worked on this type of matter directly (I was on the corporate side, not personal), but IIRC there is a form you can fill out to make one gift and have it tap both your and your spouse's gift amounts. But if you're just doing checks, you can easily make them out in four separate checks. The form is useful if you're giving them a car or painting that is below the $68k but above the individual-to-individual gift amounts.

I was thinking about building a browser extension that allowed me to tag videos on YouTube and using AI figure out if I would like to hate new videos and mark them as such (interesting, exceptional, funny, not interested, spam, time waster etc.).

Eventually it could completely edit all the rubbish out of YouTube videos based on my likes and be a kind of personal assistant to help to avoid mindlessly watching things that aren't good for me...

This forum likely wouldn't exist if we never had section 230 to begin with. Remember the original reasoning behind it - a company that ran a completely unmoderated forum won a court case (because it wasn't moderated at all). A company that imperfectly moderated a forum lost.

Section 230 means you can have user generated content that isn't perfectly moderated. The result of section 230 being abolished isn't some panacea of decentralized blogs and websites, its usenet flamewars and 4chan.

On one hand it might allow for softer and safer police practices. With ample video evidence and AI to recognize suspects, they can be apprehended at a time and place that’s safer for everyone.

End of the day this is the price being paid for unfettered rioting and the increase in petty crime since then. There’s just no way that is going to be allowed to happen again. Extensive camera networks and AI will deliver summary reports of top suspects that police will be assigned to apprehend with real-time location data sent to nearest units hours, days, or even months after the crime.

They might not get you for a few small shop lifting infractions but the cameras will watch and record and once you cross a threshold ($1000

I would disagree. The designs I'm talking about are actually extremely polished. They spend an hour just to make sure the animation of a single component flows a certain way. And yet, they spend all this time and money only to make something that someone else already championed.

And it said "As a machine learning model, I do not have personal experiences or emotions." Which shows it is not flexible.

I'm of two minds. If course it sucks to be ungrateful to someone who sacrifices real economic opportunity for you.

On the other hand, it's super important for parents to not view their children as property. You're raising something to eventually become a fully fledged, full-agented human, and if they still feel obligated to you purely because of your blood (vs out of seriously analyzing and then concluding that a relationship with you is worth investing into) then you've failed to raise this human with a full sense of agency.

Yes, children shouldn't have to take care of their parents just because the parents birthed them. Children should take care of their parents because the child-parent relationship continues to be great.

> System Settings can be mentally overwhelming

Either you and I are looking at a different "System Settings", or you get overwhelmed easily... The one I'm looking at is neatly organized into descriptive categories on the left, with a search function that searches all categories on the top. If I want to configure my mouse, I search "mouse". The mouse configuration screen has the following options:

Left handed mode
Press left and right buttons for middle-click
Pointer speed
Acceleration profile: Flat or Adaptive
Invert scroll direction

Far from overwhelming, I would say this is the bare minimum. I wish there was more. Why can I only choose between two acceleration profiles in this GUI? Why can't I tweak it? From the way you describe KDE, I should be able to tweak it. 90% of the configuration options KDE surfaces in the GUIs would have been standard fair for casual 'normie' computer users 15 years ago; it barely qualifies as a power user DE.

Use `xinput list-props ...` to see the dozens of configuration options that KDE could expose in their mouse settings GUI, but doesn't. I really do wish KDE were actually the way people like you criticize KDE for being.

> I’m just supposed to know Okular is my PDF viewer?

True. But in 2022, no one bans books like Tom Sawyer et. al. even though they are inarguably more offensive to minorities than Tom & Jerry. Such books are considered art and in the American Parthenon of literature. Perhaps in 50 more years, Tom & Jerry and Looney Tunes will reach similar artful status.

> Whereas on KDE applets typically quickly allow me to to perform the required action without having to dive into the full settings.

Indeed, but I had to actually remove applets which I wanted to use because once I added a few (Command Output applet to be precise), CPU usage started to jump by 2-5% on every addition and fans started to run full tilt. Running shell scripts that don't do anything CPU intensive once every 5 or 10 seconds shouldn't result in that.

Completely agree with the points regarding Task Switcher - when I use Breeze, I get this huge list of icons on the left which frankly looks terrible. There should atleast be an option to switch to smaller icons in the task switcher (I don't see any "Small Icons" option, only the names of the themes).

None of these are deal-breakers though; I think KDE is the best "mainstream" DE experience on Linux.
The technology was actually never the problem. It worked great.
