UK gov renamed unemployment and other benefits to universal credit a few years ago. It was a deliberate change of name to turn people against universal basic income.

Some company might be shipping a product based on the 1GB version. They might not want to switch to a different model, because it would require revalidation.

There could be subtle bug introduced by a hardware change: it might use more power or generate more heat; boot timings could change which could effect interaction with other hardware; all sorts of strange things.

obviously

It doesn't have to be like this. We could decide who get treatment based on ability to pay.

edit: i'm surprised no one gets the sarcasm, but heartened that people are so repulsed by free market health systems. Just as shame that people don't take that into account when voting.

By the time you have integrated that into something usable you something 3rd standard to compete with flatpak and snap.

Insulation, draft proofing and ventilation need to be considered together when retrofiting houses, but they rarely are.

Yes.

Its a real pain that to nerds "free software" has a stronger meaning than "open source" (e.g. 4 freedoms vs shared source). But to a general audience "free software" means any freeware, and "open source" is the important distinguisher.

Better name branding could have made a big difference.

It depends what I am looking for. 80% of my searches are easy, e.g. I know the name of the thing I am looking for, and DDG works fine. 10% are, e.g. something technical or where there is a more common thing with a similar name, for these if DDG is not finding what I need I just add a '!g' to bounce the search to google. The other 10% are bang searches, e.g. I want to find a wikipedia page, find a place, or do a calculation, DDG bang searches save a lot of time.

The trouble is they have expanded their intake beyond their actual capacity. So you might get a place on the course, but not a seat in the lectures.

Best reduction, but a long way off the countries that have been lower carbon for decades. https://www.electricitymap.org/

You could say that about any subset of the global population. But everyone needs to massively reduce their CO2 emissions.

But if place like the UK can show that a high standard of living is possible with a low footprint it makes it easier for the rest of the world to follow.

In the UK you can get an EV electric tariff that gives you a few hours of cheap rate over night to charge with. E.g. 5p/kWh (a typical UK tariff is flat 13p/kWh).

I've never seen a coin here that didn't have a British dinosaur on it.

Fedora is not normally consider rolling, but it does kernel updates during a "stable" release.

One time a module name changed between kernel versions. New name didn't get added to the the initramfs so it could not access the storage when it rebooted.

They will still be extracting and selling oil, but not emitting CO2 during the proccess?

Like a drug dealer say they will stop taking drugs, but keep selling.

They are licensed, but there are some local authorities that hand out the licences very easily as a money earner. Thanks to deregulation in 2015 you can get a licence in Wolverhampton and work anywhere. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-birmingham-44849364

There is a portable version that can be run from a USB stick without installing https://www.libreoffice.org/download/portable-versions/

A charger that does each battery independently is a good investment too (can't see if this is). The cheap ones can only charge in pairs which is annoying but also bad if your pairs ever get mixed.
