which I’m sure we did somehow
Trudeau sold him measures that Canada had already voted on. See this post from the end of last year. https://www.canada.ca/en/public-safety-canada/news/2024/12/the-government-of-canadas-border-plan-significant-investments-to-strengthen-border-security-and-our-immigration-system.html
Trudeau "caved" by giving Trump essentially zilch, apparently assuming -- perhaps not incorrectly -- that Trump would be that easily swindled.
UGears! \o/ Love their stuff. The designs are super clever, the models usually gorgeous, and surprisingly inexpensive too.
Nope? They (Colombia) got exactly what they wanted as far as In understand. Trump caved, the flights will have to follow the conditions dictated by Colombia. It's telling that the press is selling this as a Trump win.
For doing actual music production, yeah, switching to Windows is an option you need to consider, annoyingly.
Reaper is powerful, but getting it set up right can be an adventure. I've had better luck with Bitwig. Bitwig also happens to support Pipewire out of the box. This will relieve you from having to deal with JACK.
If you're going to be dealing with JACK, then you may want to look into Cadence from the KXStudio project. It will help you set up JACK in such a way that, for instance, PulseAudio (if you have not switched to Pipewire yet) will route its output through JACK, allowing you to hear YouTube as expected.
In all cases, I would very much avoid using ALSA directly for sound input/output. (Using it for MIDI is sometimes fine.)
So, in short, I'd start with installing Pipewire and checking out the Bitwig demo, and if that doesn't work for you, install Cadence and use it to manage JACK.
I had missed that. Wild.
Oglaf is a comic with an absurd and on occasion borderline gross sense of humor (and a loooot of dicks and cooches, so don't look it up at work). That's pretty much all there is to explain.
It... depends. There is some great tooling for Python -- this was less true only a few years ago, mind you -- but the landscape is very much in flux, and usage of the modern stuff is not yet widespread. And a lot of the legacy stuff has a whole host of pitfalls.
Things are broadly progressing in the right direction, and I'd say I'm cautiously optimistic, although if you have to deal with anything related to conda then for the time being: good luck, and sorry.
The Earth's orbit is an ellipse, not a circle, and therefore the Earth speeds up or slows down depending on where on its orbit it is at the time. In turn this means that the duration of the solar day fluctuates from day to day, from a bit under 24h to a bit over 24h and back.
So if you take a picture every 24h precisely the sun will appear to move horizontally a little bit on top of the expected vertical movement.
I mean, he's been implementing hard right policies all along, so...
The default actually works pretty well these days.
Messing with the EFI partition, for instance by attempting to have two of those on separate disks, will probably cause you more pain than Windows will. As far as I understand, only one EFI partition can be configured in BIOS as the boot partition, so you will have to change the configuration in BIOS whenever you want to boot to the other OS.
Windows does have a history of changing the default EFI bootloader once in a while; however your chosen bootloader is still there, just not marked as the default anymore. A Windows app like EasyUEFI will let you change the default back.
The ONE time in half a decade I take a trip to Seattle...
"Possible cyberattack" plus "no threat actors or ransomware group has taken responsibility" sounds to me like someone fucked up and is timid about owning up.
That, now, is indeed a genuine issue. Trump has stated that his end game is annexation, and experience has shown that when he sounds like he's got a bee in his bonnet about something, however bonkers, he's actually serious about it. So I'm not seeing him stop the aggression on Canada.
