Even if we stopped giving out drilling permits and closed all marginal wells tomorrow, emissions would continue to increase. There are lots of oil and gas facilities that have permitted wells that they haven't drilled yet, and newer facilities that will probably emit more as they age.
Actively reducing emissions in aggregate over the whole country, not just reducing the rate of increase in emissions will either require a lot of time or decisive action from Washington to force states to cancel permits and ban drilling, which is pretty clearly not going to happen without a massive shift in political leanings in the House, Senate, Presidency, and the courts.
It fucking sucks, but without massive political pressure I don't expect much on the federal level anytime soon.
In the meantime, vote for state candidates this cycle that say they will do the most, and pressure them to do the most they possibly can and don't ever let up.
When I was working in IT, this would have been a very useful tool for doing some on-site troubleshooting with various tools or for one-off reimaging machines that were missed during a big update or something. Instead, I had a bag of USB sticks with labels on them, which was annoying to use and to maintain.
It won't have the same performance as a PS5, but the new Minisforum MS-A1 with a user-upgradable CPU is a really interesting proposition. The Ryzen 8700G is pretty good, but I would expect solid upgrades to be available in the next few CPU generations.
I currently have an Nvidia Shield Pro (2019), and it's fine. I have Moonlight installed and can stream from my desktop PC using Sunshine (I do this on my Steam Deck, too), but I don't expect that Nvidia will make a replacement, and I don't know if I would get it if they did.
The software outside of Steam's big picture mode isn't ready for a full Linux couch experience, but it's close. The two projects to watch are KDE Plasma Bigscreen and Waydroid (some people are starting to get Android TV working) which would be a nice bridge to use apps designed for a TV UI until native Linux versions become available.
Is this in a bedroom? Get some under-the-bed bins to put everything in that isn't plugged into the wall or necessary for the operation of your computer. If it's not in a bedroom, you have space for more storage furniture, I can guarantee it, so get some.
The top shelf can then be used to display choice things or for plants or books, which will look way less cluttered.
Probably not, but she won't gut the EPA either, and the Biden administration did send out truckloads of money to deal with oil and gas emissions in the form of Climate Pollution Reduction Grants, so she is clearly the better candidate on this issue.
Your best bet is to get one of those hubs that has more ports and just not use them. The extra ports usually share bandwidth to some degree with the USB ports anyway. Also, I would highly encourage you to buy a used enterprise hub. The WD22TB4 from Dell is a good option. It has two Thunderbolt passthrough ports and can be found on eBay for about US$100.
Also, the fact that they're backed by a bunch of web3/crypto companies is not great. They say they're not a web3 company, but it sounds like they're building UI and tools specifically for Sui wallet and crypto games and letting users opt-out of these "features".
I don't want to touch that with a 10-foot pole.
Yeah, I need something to collaborate with my partner in realtime. We've got a hacky setup in Obsidian using dataview to join separate notes to a read-only one, so we don't have collisions, but I would love something better.
