West coast would be fine. California grows over 50% of the fruits and nuts, and 30% of the vegetables for the entire US. The "farm belt" states mostly grow cash crops for animal feed, energy production, and overseas export.

IRL Pocahontas was like 11 or 12.

I think that's his point. Past a certain level wealth makes no difference to your quality of life. So give it away, make the world better, and still have enough for more than 1 lifetime rather than horde and continue to amass like a cancer.

Not just patent trolls, most US corporations (at least every non boutique tech company I've worked for over the past 20 years) are incorporated in Delaware.

My wife and I are 40 with 3 kids (in another week two of them will be in high school!) and we quote this at least twice a month, usually in bed, usually while pretend stiff-arming the other and saying "whooooooooomphf"

I dont think Afghanistani or Persian ethnic people are semitic. Iraq would probably count but probably a majority of Muslims in the world aren't semitic.

Dang, very sad. I was just in Nosara a few weeks back with my family and definitely noticed some serious rips (no surprise, the conditions that make a break good for surfing also make it dangerous).

Typescript makes for a whole different experience on the FE

EndeavorOS is basically Arch with some opinionated and easy to run install/setup scripts. Once up and running though you use yay (assuming you want to install aur packages, otherwise I guess you could just use pacman).

Do you live here? There are major population centers on both sides of the bridge (Richmond on one end, San Rafael on the other) and the Ohlone trail + Richmond Greenway means you can ride a bike from Emeryville all the way to the bridge quite easily.

That said it's a beast of a commute to ride. I'd say 90% of the bikers I see on there aren't using it to commute but are using it for exercise/pleasure cycling. I do see about 10% of bikers on ebikes that could make this a viable commute.

 

I'm a very long time linux user (I think first install was Mandrake around 1998) but haven't owned a linux PC in well over a decade (use MBPs for work, linux on the cloud and in docker). I also have an older iMac that my kids use, and I dual boot to Windows via bootcamp for the only game I play (Civ V).

With Civ 7 coming out next month the crew I play with want to give it a go, which makes me realize I'll need to upgrade my desktop (or buy a gaming laptop).

I've been looking at the System76 Thelio Mira line but they won't ship until end of Feb according to their website. Trying to find something prebuilt with Linux already on it (I don't care about distro/will likely change it anyway, but want to make sure everything is supported "out of the box"). Preferably under $2000 but I realize it might be difficult esp with an Nvidia card.

Other than playing Civ I'll probably use it for some OSS development and personal projects (including toy deep learning stuff, anything really needing much horsepower would also be in the cloud), as a media center for my house, etc.

Any suggestions for specific machines or vendors to check out? Anything to watch out for? (Because of crossplay I assume I'll have to run Steam in Proton)

 

Any recommendations for learning (modern) prolog? Specifically looking at ishigo/prolog and trealla-go as a way to embed rules validation engines in a golang application. Am I insane? If not (or so) how do I best go about learning prolog?

east bay? (lemmy.ml)

I created !eastbay@lemmy.ml if anybody wants a slightly more local bay area community

More summer in the bay. Nearing the end of Brent's run, with a particularly stellar He's Gone
