If you have Costco membership, their optical department is pretty affordable. Frames are $50-80. Lenses another $80 or so, but depends on complexity and of you get transitions and whatnot.

How is alternative transit the solution? Cities that have public transportation still have traffic jams.

There was an English traffic engineer that predicted that avg speed in central London will always be like 9mph. No matter how many lanes or public transit options you add. If there is no traffic, people will take cars until traffic jams are unbearable to give up. Then the system finds equilibrium.

Yes, but the cop outright lied by claiming he was hit.

The driver should get their $200 fine, but the cop essentially attempted to frame another person.

Personal blog on a public Internet is kind of an oxymoron.

The blog post is close enough to an article.

Yes, all packages in nixos are available as binaries to download.

The comparison with Arch was just in terms of number of packages. Not the binary availability.

At the bottom of this page, they say that binary cache is currently at 120TB. https://nixos.org/community/index.html

If packages being available as binaries is the main criteria, nix has you covered there.

The biggest issue for most people with Nixos is the learning curve just because it's so different.

Nixos will use/download cached binaries that are available in its repo. It has one of the biggest repositories of any Linux distro. It's on par with Arch with around 90 thousand packages.

Unless you are doing something custom or niche, your nixos won't have to compile anything.

They don't expect to go bankrupt by 2033. That's when the surplus/reserves will run out. The system doesn't have the fixed amount of money. Current employees are constantly paying into it.

20% is the shortfall between payout vs people paying in. And it will only happen if it's not addressed. Which I'm sure will get addressed last minute or something like that.

Israel proposed/accepted/was in favor of two state solution multiple times throughout history. It was Palestinians who rejected it.

MikroTik is super powerful, customizable and affordable.

Such a good point. I'm honestly surprised people recommend Nextcloud so frequently. I've used it in a commercial environment and it sucks ass. It broke numerous times when upgrading, it was buggy and slow. At the time their GitHub page had like 4k open issues and another 8k closed. Looks like it's somewhat better now. Many of issues we've experienced were reported but no movement for years. It's like least stable OSS I had dealt with.
