Does anyone know anything about vertical axis wind turbines? I see a lonely VAWT on the rooftop of the building across the street from ABC on Harris Street Ultimo. Could neatly complement rooftop solar panels.

True, that'd be the best hope for an in class course.

Probably explains why they went online mode instead of in class mode for the two courses. Casting their net wider. If I'm not too wrong, brochures and flyers and posters for these courses have already arrived in every one of those 48 countries and would pounce on every potential student.

I do wish how QEMU (and VLC media player?) came out of France or Mastodon came out of Germany, Arduino came out of Italy, something of note comes from down under too. Something other than Atlassian. Sadly Aussie grads seem to find overseas employment more attractive, and most of those who stay don't essentially work in their fields of study.

One scenario where these sustainable degrees may make any sense is, you are a business who engages consulting firms, and you get a recommendation from them saying that you could use some C suits or one of the direct reports to your C suits carrying an ESG cred so that you can tick off a few boxes. So corporate staff are most likely to be the target for this degree.

Probably the hug of death is more due to most other clothing businesses not doing the lifetime guarantee than customers abusing. I see no motivation for buying at one place and taking it to another if both offer the same guarantees.

Get a list of packages that depend on it, as explained in https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/149805/how-to-find-the-packages-that-depend-on-a-certain-package-in-apt

You may have to remove all the dependants along with NVIDIA package, or maybe remove the dependants before removing the NVIDIA package.

Has extreme hostility towards adblocker and similar tools become the new government normal when I was sleeping? On mobile FF with those extensions, tapping on any link simply reloads the page.

If there is a hall of shame for such things

The true magic is as always, hiding in plain sight. Those in power going after the most vulnerable is a textbook definition of corruption. Yet it is called anything but corruption. Tangentially , a government letting the mafia go after the vulnerable is just as corrupt too. Looking at you gam(bl)ing, alcohol, fast food, snacks, soft drinks advertisements.

A quick Google shows that signing up for Threads requires you to walk the gauntlet of t&C agreements; and deactivating or deleting Threads would lead to your IG account being nuked; and that there's a following and world feeds both heavily informed by the Meta / IG algorithms.

A challenge to the EEE could be mounted by encouraging other social media giants to form an oligopoly on fediverse. Sadly this would slowly make self hosting a larger pain than it is for most

https://www.opensourcealternative.to/ lists rocket.chat as an alternative to Slack and Discord

I have not used it. I have used Mattermost. And it can do channels, teams, hashtags, @ mentions etc similar to Slack. Though it requires the server be hosted and administered by you or someone you know.
