Is… is this the year of the Linux desktop?
Is… is this the year of the Linux desktop?
Did I use the wrong word there? I always assumed till and until were synonyms
I looked it up and unsurprisingly there’s a whole Wikipedia page about this. Long story short, it takes decades for rock to become soily at all so likely a much longer time till it becomes as soily as what’s around it here.
This whole thing is so weird to me. I did a road trip through Argentina some time ago and every once in a while I’d see a random road sign just saying “Las Malvinas son Argentinas”. They just won’t let it go.
Can confirm, I still remember how impressed I was to see MGS:V running smoothly on my old dual-core Intel CPU with integrated graphics. It could never handle Sleeping Dogs or Deus Ex: Human Revolution yet this massive and beautiful open-world sandbox ran on it like a champ.
Ooh boy, do I have some good news for you!
Very nice.
Now let’s see Paul Allen’s numbers.
Probably, but then again, that’s never stopped any country from claiming its former territories.
Even in winter you’ll hardly ever see snow anywhere in Brazil yet our christmas decorations would make you think this is Northern Canada lol
They’ll never get Vietnam.
Having North Korea as their only neighbour doesn’t help though
I don’t know what makes you think South Americans are not under US influence cause I can tell you things in Brazil look exactly the same: Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Twitter… well, Whatsapp is also absurdly popular around here but I don’t think it qualifies.
What if you keep a baby awake until it becomes an adult?
I have a feeling that someone will later make a 4-hour-long video essay calling them out for it
This is so sweet. Getting to show cool stuff you like to your kids must be one of the best things about being a parent. If I ever end up becoming one I’ll show my kids all the great Pixar movies and also the Emperor’s New Groove cause that one is a classic.
Meanwhile, a couple hundred km down in the south of the country it has been raining non-stop for like two months now, with some small towns in valleys having been completely destroyed by floods. The climate here is all wrong, this is not normal.
I don’t think the locals are too worried about Japanese imperialism.
I had the same hope back in 2018 when Bolsonaro was elected in Brazil. Maybe this guy is just pretending to be insane and will be more reasonable once he’s president. I know better now.
Yeah, I think geography is the main point here. As it stands, China’s coast is fully surrounded by American allies in Japan, Taiwan and the Philippines and owning Taiwan could give them control of the surrounding waters allowing their cargo ships to safely pass through if things get ugly with the US.
Good. Let them cook.
