The US data center industry provides significant benefits to local communities—creating hundreds of thousands of high-wage jobs…

Bullshit. Real tired of this argument. It’s well known that datacenters are minimally staffed. Iowa got one and they convinced people that it would bring high paying jobs. Of course it didn’t. The high paying jobs are in tech centers, and even then they are less and less. Data centers are meant to just run with minimal involvement from humans. Everyone should fight for them to not be near them.

And heeeeere come your Doritos Locos Tacos Players!!

I’ve never understood why they don’t have a “shut up and take my money” service. Fine they have their contracts, but they have die-hard fans who would love to give them money to watch their teams in one place. Give credit to paramount, fox, whoever, just get it to your customers. They’re doing them a disservice and missing out on money

Dual license. You can specify one license under some conditions and another license for other conditions. So you could specify that if your code is going to be used by someone like say, Amazon, they need to pay you a license. But actual open source projects get it free and clear. Or whatever combo you want.

Agreed that if someone submits a dmca request they should be egregious enough that they’re willing to pay for lawyers and court fees. If they’re not ready to commit to that then it’s not that severe

It works surprisingly well on Linux

Dual license seems great. Mit for any not monetized code, if you want to monetize it that’s fine, but since you depend on the work of open sources devs, then you need to pay for a license

Well, not that they were top of the list but I’ve been considering a new von provider, and well they’re out of the running now

Bruh you straight up had the option to just downvote and move on and instead chose this. To Blaze no less. Blaze has done more for the fediverse than most.

I’ve been waiting for sodium for a whole home battery. Not great for cars but for homes they seem great

It’s been 12 years. There is no “this series” right now. There’s absolutely no way to predict it.

I don’t know where you get yours, but I get 24 loads in a box of powder for $6. https://www.kroger.com/p/kroger-dishwasher-detergent-powder-lemon-scent/0001111080564

That’s good, reuse > recycle. We had nothing to do with them so were just recycling these giant jugs all the time. Now we have a big container we pour the detergent into and just scoop it out as we go. Containers are cardboard for the powder

I’d say it’s better, but not great. Environmentally it still comes with a giant plastic jug that needs to be disposed of, and we all know how plastic recycling is. On your wallet, if you think bout it, you’re not just paying for the soap, but the water and the weight/shipping of that water to get to your home from the factories.

Powder is really the same thing, but you have water at home to mix it with, that happens in your washing machine. So, naturally it is going to be cheaper.

Thanks to Technology Connections - Dishwasher/Laundry pods. Soap with pretty colors, and probably more soap than you need per load. I’ve swapped to powder and literally cannot tell a difference at all, and instead of 8 dollars for 10 loads I now am getting an entire box with like, 40 loads for $8.

And if you want something convenient for laundry they have the laundry sheets that don’t release plastic into your water so that’s nice.

But personally if I want a known amount each time for each load I just use a scoop.

You mean the union busting didn’t help?

But seriously, good, better to delay then force the engineers to crunch on a subpar product.

Just activated! Thank you very much!

Thank you!

Sounds like it’s a site wide push about Microsoft products:
