The idea that soda and similar sugary beverages aren't hydrating is just plain wrong. They are, it's just that it's not healthy to drink them in anywhere near the quantities you would need to maintain hydration using them.

Used to be independent, but it's owned by Alibaba now, so don't expect anything more than a pretense of independence anymore.

Way too late to be worrying about that now. You've already posted it, and nothing you can do at this point would noticeably mitigate those types of risks.

Not in this chain, but it can likely be determined from your comment history by anyone who cares enough to put effort into it. A quick, less than a minute scan through that was enough to figure out that you live in the UK, and that you lived in Edinburgh during the first decade of this century.

fTPM is firmware TPM, it is not physical.

Any script or service you used can only access the most recent 1000 comments in your history.

This isn't quite 100% true. Shreddit supports getting its comment list from a GDPR request, and if you do that, then it CAN access the older comments and delete them, it just doesn't have any other way than that data request file to know about their existence.

THEN, after calling them up and explaining the situation, they apologized and said they'd dismiss the charge--which they failed to do

That sounds about right. When I was in college I got a speeding ticket halfway in between the college town and the city my parents lived in. Couldn't afford the fine due to being a poor college student, and called the court and asked if an extension was possible. They told me absolutely, how long do you need, and then I started saving up. Shortly before I had enough, I got a call from my Mom that she had received a letter saying there was a bench warrant for my arrest over the fine

The fact that they are too old to show up in your profile is WHY it can't delete them. The only way to delete those automatically is to feed in a GDPR data request into a tool like Shreddit that supports getting its comment list from that source rather than the profile.

For fully remote anywhere in the midwest is good as long as you don't need the big city nightlife. You can buy a starter house in the rich parts of KC for 500k, or a nice house in the middle-class areas.

I know Gentoo has it masked for testing with this note, which is probably the same reason why other distros without the same mechanism don't have it at all:

Testing. An upgrade from 102 isn't recommended due to downgrading most likely not being possible. Back up your profile before attempting. Fresh install should be fine. Bug #910229

Looks like HVAC in in the top left and then GPU out and case fan out.

There has to be a small unused area at the start for the partition table. 2MB is far more than is needed for that, but leaving less would tank performance due to the fs blocks and disk blocks not being aligned.

You need to specifically use a GDPR export with shreddit though, it's not magic, and if you don't have a GDPR export, it can't get around the 1000 post limit on the profile.

It’s interesting you bring up pascal’s wager, because the first time was introduced to me it was basically a clear-cut example of a logical fallacy.

Probably because it is a clear cut example of a logical fallacy. The whole thing was an exercise in question begging via it's unstated assumptions.
