Nerd: setting up the back-trace now, wait, the ip is 127.0.0.1

Grizzled police-chief: don't give me that geek-talk poindexter, speak english

[Zoom in]

Nerd: the post was coming from inside the station.

No one was able to replicate the level of health complications from the movie. Apparently he was a raging alcoholic.

Alcohol kills. McDonalds is just sorta bad.

Rental income is considered income, and taxed assuming reasonable tax brackets much higher than investment income (That is to say, caiptal-gains. Interest/Dividends are also taxed at the higher income rate)

The cost of maintaining a livable home, property taxes, insurance, property depreciation, and renter interactions eat into the supposed windfall that landlords make.

I'm not saying it doesn't suck sometimes and that certainly these formulas are out of whack in some situations, but there are no easy answers.

Overall sand repellent crotch.

Nose flaps.

Nictitating membrane(s). Heck that solves lots of issues.

I once interviewed at a (very) big usenet provider. The job was perl, I knew perl, must be fun.

No.

The job was to implement the byzantine B.S. "discounts" and plan-pricing "deals" that the sales team came up with to most effectively screw the customer.

I declined.

A sudden, dramatic shift in the way you process information is probably worth a trip to the neurologist.

I never considered one of the windows-based portables. In fact when I saw that the steamdeck was linux based and was well received, I jumped.

Once I saw how well it worked, I stopped dual-booting my laptop and get to live in linux all the time.

If the article is correct and the market is starting to push this way, that is great news for linux, linux-gaming, and everyone.

Browser save-as-type to the rescue.

Firefox extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/image-converter/

Chrome too, but find it yourself if you are still using that.
