After we were married wife kept her last name, partially for professional reasons partially because she didn’t like my last name :-) When we had kids we decided that the kids would have my last name to avoid hyphen hell and her last name is super generic so any time she has to search for an account at the bank or anything like that she almost always has someone else with the same first and last name it can be a pain to find the correct “her”

They reported on Hamas Attacks in a fairly standard news style when they attacked. Israel has killed at least 25x more civilians then Hamas i would expect slightly different reporting based on that at this stage.

Here in New Zealand you can buy it at the Hardware store in 20KG bags. Older houses have pot belly “stoves” for heat, which are smaller then log burners usually, and coal is the best fuel for them.

Raglan

I find the same thing with Raglan Roast being hit or miss. I sometimes get epic batches from them and the next will be meh. The price is reasonable so i keep going back

My longest was when i went 100% linux full time on my main machine (no dual boot), I stopped distro-hoppping. I Installed Debian stable when it first came out (Jessie) and stayed with it until it shifted to “old-stable” which was a little bit over 3 years.

A lot of people give Debian stable a hard time but i found it worked well. Most software that i needed to be a little bit newer i could get from the backports repository. It was only at the end of it’s lifecycle that i started running in to software being a little to old for what i wanted to do. Then i went back to distro-hopping for a while until i found my next home. :-)

RISC-V will be more viable in a few years at the moment it is getting popular in embedded application because of it’s licencing structure. That embedded experience is going to find it’s way to more general compute in time.

For SBC’s RISC-V’s main issue at this stage is software optimization at the back end (really the whole stack). At the moment a ARM board will be able to do the same task more efficiently then a RISC board because of those optimizations.

Personally i plan to buy a RISC board to play with i’m sure i can find a use case for one. I just want to personally see how the technology is progressing. Plus by using the software it will show developers that there is interest in this 3rd option. it’s kind of a chicken and egg problem software wise.
