I’m about as far from Sydney as over can get on the Earth but I’ll take a stab…

Possibly an inside message to “JCT” (initials) for something that is happening at 10:05 tonight or tomorrow morning?

Just a wild guess. 🤷🏼🙂

Gee, it’s like this is a company based in capitalist United States doing what capitalists do best: sell to the highest bidder and keep customers as long as possible.

And technically the lands are still wet, so it’s better?

Easy solution: All elections in the state after the supreme Court decision need to be invalid and on hold until the new redistricting is approved.

Don’t get it done by the next election? Sorry, your ballots and electrics don’t count.

It’s disenfranchisement, but for everyone, not just the ones whose gerrymandering selected.

I’m not an expert but this is what I understand from a podcast l listened to (https://twit.tv/shows/untitled-linux-show):

There’s a subset of Linux users who desire or need GPL compliant environments for they purposes (personal or work related).

There’s a kernel flag that is set to track if the drivers or gas loaded are also 100% GPL.

NVidia wrote their own video driver which is NOT GPL compliant, so as soon as they are loaded the kennel flag is set to “not GPL”. To get around the simple checks for GPL compliant drivers, NVidia wrote a wrapper (a “condom”) to lie that it was GPL-compliant when it was violating the GPL flag meaning.

The Linux 6.6 release apparently has more protections to keep NVidia from working around the GPL check. (For now…)

Descent - really loved the immersive 3D world and gameplay.

But I must have my CH Flightstick Pro to get the most out of the manuverability of the ships.

Of course I haven’t played it in 30 years so I might be a tad rusty now even if I have all the gaming upgrades. 😁

This is so cool, I can’t wait until they get the purity up so I can buy a small disk to play with at home.

All in good time I suppose.
