does it seem really odd that Dell would be selling the laptop bundled with Ubuntu as a “recommended” option?

in early 2009 it would have been windows vista, i think? so maybe that’s the problem

is the number 1000 based on anything? i’m curious if there have been any studies on the amount of logos most people recognize. 1000 seems high but also not, so i wonder if there’s science to back it up

maybe favourite it instead of subscribing? then it’ll show up in the dropdown at the top of the homepage, but won’t be in the feed

i feel apprehensive about adopting a new way of running commands with elevated permission when sudo already feels trustworthy. i’m sure it’s safe but i need an xkcd comic about good old run0 before i can trust it

you don’t need to “repeat it on any device you need to use it on”. it sounds like you set it up as a local instance, but the general idea is you’d make that instance available from any device on your network (or the whole internet if you enable port forwarding on your router)

as an example, i have it running alongside radar/sonar/plex on my media server and use NGINX reverse proxy to make it available anywhere from https://requests.mydomain.cat/. “nginx proxy manager” can help get that domain set up securely with your own auth rules

what does the article say? i’d like to know more about this, but there’s a paywall

edit, thanks to gpt-4 i was able to get a summary:

A large explosion occurred in downtown Fort Worth, Texas, on Monday, January 8, 2024, around 9:30 a.m. local time.

The blast was caused by a natural gas leak at a construction site near the Fort Worth Convention Center.

The explosion injured at least 15 people, including four construction workers and 11 bystanders. Two of the injured are in critical condition.

The explosion also damaged several buildings and vehicles in the vicinity, and caused a fire that was quickly contained by firefighters. The authorities are investigating the cause of the gas leak and the extent of the damage. They have asked the public to avoid the area until further notice.
