I could be wrong, but I think it’s a German commercial, coffee in a can. “You’ve never been this awake.”

Not sure why you’d think OP is saying 1 church per town. Just that there are ~380k churches in the United States, and less than twice as many homeless people.

I agree, far too many people are left out in the cold at night when we have many public, climate-controlled buildings with working bathrooms and possibly even showers that are empty after a certain hour. If the homeless were able to regularly get a good night’s sleep and a shower in, they might be more able to hold down jobs and become contributing members of society again.

Schools certainly would be great as a shelter after hours, most have gyms with showers, possibly laundry machines, and certainly ample space for someone to sleep with a sleeping bag. If we could just figure out a way to make sure everything stays clean for students to use the next day, no left-behind drugs, no vandalism, etc. that could be a wonderful solution.

My guess is that in most places the homeless population would easily fit within the gymnasium alone.

One of my favorites from Oh Bo by Bo Burnham:
Pull it out, stick it in your mouth, and I bust in the back of ya
Swallow bitch, there’s people starving in Africa

What you’re describing is just compressing in a ZIP file. Zip files are lossless, you have nothing to worry about. When you throw a JPG in a zip file, and then extract it later, you’ll get the exact identical JPG back.

You only have to worry about jpg’s lossy compression if you’re using a photo editor like Photoshop, GIMP, etc. “Compressing” it in a zip changes nothing. Moving or copying it doesn’t lose quality either.

file.pizza if this is a one off or rare occurrence. If you’re doing this regularly, there are better options, provided the person at the “source” computer is competent. A significant question is whether or not these computers are on the same network. I would recommend running a HTTP server if you don’t care about privacy, HTTPS if you do. There’s no need to buy an SSL certificate, self-signed is more than adequate for this purpose.

It’s more complicated to set up, but the advantage is that when you’re done you can send the receiving party a link they can open in any web browser, no hassle.

Debian. So many other distros are based on it anyway. I use it on damn near everything now.

Dance Dance Revolution. More specifically, an open source clone of it called StepMania. Very fun way to lose weight. You’ll want to invest in some high quality metal dance pads if you really enjoy it though.

Pretty horrible. Wife wants a divorce and is unwilling to try and fix things. Barely communicates with me at all.

I met my stepson when he was 9 months old. He’s 11 now. I’m the only father he knows. I’m devastated, because not only am I losing my wife, but I’m also losing my son, as I have no legal right to him. I’m estranged from the rest of my family, so the world is looking pretty cold and lonely from here.

I’ll go against the grain a little bit and say it’s a little weird. There’s nothing wrong with liking multiple distros, but a lot of people either stick with RPM-based (Red Hat, Fedora, CentOS, Rocky, OpenSUSE, Mageia) or Debian-based (Debian, Ubuntu, Mint, Pop!, Elementary). Then you have weirdos that like Gentoo, where nearly every package you install has to be compiled on the system. Or Arch, where the “installer” throws you in a terminal, and damn near everything has to be done manually to get your system up and running. And updates are “rolling release”, and if you try to update just one package without updating the rest of your system things can easily break.

I am mostly a fan of Debian-based distros myself. But I’ll use CentOS on a VM if I’m trying to self-host anything that recommends it.

My personal favorite is Debian. I’m the IT director at my job, and 90% of our machines, including end user workstations, are running some form of Linux.

One really nice thing is that most stuff is saved somewhere in your home directory. You can switch between all sorts of distros, and if you install the same software, browser, email client, etc. most of your stuff will automatically be there and work out of the box.

1. Based on opinion, but okay, I’ll give you that one.
2. Ubuntu has terminal built-in, it’s far from hidden. Most Android installs (average smart phone) don’t include a terminal, you have to either use adb from a computer, or download a terminal from an app store.
3. Ubuntu’s root user is not locked down. By default the user can run any command they want using sudo, and a basic google search will tell them how to enable root login fairly quickly. By comparison, just about any android smartphone has to be “jailbroken” using an exploit in order to access root. Some phones, especially in the USA, can’t be jailbroken at all.

Ubuntu is pretty upfront about any telemetry and allows you to disable it easily. A lot of Android’s telemetry can’t be opted out of, unless you happen to have an unlocked bootloader and can install a privacy-focused custom ROM.

These are not the same, although I get the point you’re trying to make. Ubuntu has a user-friendly interface, with a goal of making Linux accessible to all. But for anybody who wants to, it’s fairly easy to dig into the internals and become a “power user.” It certainly makes no attempt to stop you from doing so. Android, on the other hand, on MOST instances, locks down everything, with little to no overrides, even from the user, many times “in the name of security.”

Seriously doubt this is an API issue. The error itself would make it seem like it’s a problem with your browser, but unless you have some overzealous privacy extensions installed that are hiding your user agent, it’s more likely to be a temporary problem on their side.

Old computer equipment. It wasn’t being used for anything, and would have ended up being thrown out if I didn’t take it. Stuff was too old to be useful in a business environment now, but I built a small retro gaming rig running Windows 98 out of it.

I actually have a APC UPS at work that uses a USB-A to USB-A cable. You can look up the cable online, it’s part number 940-0504. I was surprised APC used such a cable. I think if you tried to do something dumb like connect two PCs together with it, one of the USB ports would fry.

Because there are free and open source alternatives available, rather than having WinRAR beg you to pay for it every time you open it. You should really try 7-Zip. Haven’t looked back at WinRAR or any other utility since.

Anything wrong with Nextcloud Notes?

You’re basically looking for some form of a WYSIWYG editor. Check out Qt Creator, I think you’ll like it.

Also, you haven’t told us which programming language you’re trying to use. Every language has it’s own set of tools.
