Is the joke that Stranger Things is nothing like Twin Peaks at all?

Everyone should just report the error to Google over and over and over again. Remind them that the federal government doesn't actually have unilateral authority to rename major international geographic features on the whim of a single deranged despot.

I wish I could stay asleep for 8 consecutive hours, or even go back to sleep after waking up at hour 6 without feeling like shit the rest of the day. Some of my most restorative sleeping has been 4 hours or a 30 minute nap. Sleeping more than 30 minutes and less than 4? Straight to sleepy jail. More than 4 hours, but a little less than six? Sleepy jail. More than 8 hours? Probably dead, definitely at least sleepy jail where nothing productive happens.

That's not what the articles says or implies at all. The article only refers to another article with a click bait headline. The article article summarizes Canonical stance like this:

• Canonical will add AI to Ubuntu — but only cautiously and when it truly makes sense.
• AI features must be mature, open-source, and run locally when possible.
• Focus AI on accessibility (speech-to-text, TTS) and improvements, not turning Ubuntu into an 'AI product'.

And to be clear, including a tool or default workflow is MILES away from patronizingly forcing it on to users. It's just the way that most distros that aren't Linux From Scratch work.

The idea is to have the server safely shutdown BEFORE it loses power, so that BIOS setting wouldn't mean anything. The server does not loose power while it it running, so it will never "restore last state after AC loss". The idea is that you can run a low power device (the raspberry pi) for which you don't care if power is cut abruptly and that can talk to both the UPS and the wake-on-lan of the server directly over ethernet. It being local means those WOL are much more likely to work than trying to send them from outside your network when you're remote. It's a lot simpler to set this up once than it is to recover a server with a corrupted file system due to power loss or lose access to your server for weeks because a thunderstorm knocked out power for 30min at the beginning of a long trip. That pi can also take care of other always on services like a pi-hole, home assistant, etc.

It's my understanding that he didn't put himself at risk for the adrenaline, he did it because he valued the safety of the animals he cared for above his own. I seem to remember him explaining his reasoning on his show. There are lots of devices and drugs that can be used for protected contact so that animal handlers are never put at serious risk, but all of them can and do sometimes go horribly wrong for the animals in addition to being very traumatic in ways that it can be difficult for humans to conceive. He didn't do it without thought either, it being clear that the techniques he used required an intimate knowledge of those animals and their behaviors. He didn't die wrestling a croc or handling a venomous snake. He died from being to close to an animal he likely had much less familiarity with.

Tastes like a beaver's ass.

Paolo Bacigalupi is to the climate crisis what William Gibson is to cyberpunk. Stories like The Water Knife and The Tamarisk Hunter feeling a lot closer to reality everyday. But then again, fighting over access to water is a tale as old as time.

That's the part that confused me. Doesn't seem particularly useful or wise to equip a helicopter with a nuke. Seems kind of suicidal actually.

According to the article it was royalty free and published open standards, but they do not make any claim to this being an FOSS system.

If I thought it was an intentional joke, it wouldn't have been ironic.
