What about the installer? Anaconda isn't great, but you only need about 1 minute to set the options to install and then let it do it's job before rebooting.

Cognizant, a professional services company that Alphabet contracted the YouTube Music team through, said in a statement that the workers were let go after their contract ended at its intended date, according to KXAN in Austin.

A spokesperson for Google told Business Insider that Cognizant is responsible for ending the workers' employment, not Google.

"Contracts with our suppliers across the company routinely end on their natural expiry date, which was agreed to with Cognizant," the company said in a statement.

Not sure how much of the fault is from Google's side here since the employees contracted from another company.

If I had a nickel for every time a lunar lander has landed on its side this year, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

Wine uses VKD3D and DXVK, not the other way around. People have even used DXVK on Windows to improve performance in certain situations.

I don't think there would be any real benefit to this over DXVK and VKD3D

The US nuclear arsenal still runs on floppy disks.

EDIT: The Air Force claimed they finished a migration from 8-inch floppy disks to solid state storage in June 2019, so my info is slightly out of date. They did use floppy disks for over 50 years though (1968-2019).

You conveniently blocked the part of the sticker saying what they mean by "never obsolete" with the red circle. IIRC, they gave you a massive discount to trade in your computer every 2 years for the latest model, so you were always up to date. Kinda like phones now.

Why would you use anything other than Math.max?

Because the US provides tons of money and weapons to Israel, which are supposed to be used for self-defense but are now being used to mass murder Palestinians.

Bioasphalts can be made from all sorts of non-petroleun renewable resources, including food wastes and sewerage effluent: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioasphalt

I think the main challenge now will be determining the ideal mix of ingredients that best suit the purpose of the asphalt.
