I can't stand Apple's required software like iTunes. Apple HW is great. Just hoping Asahi Linux is ready soon. Until then, Linux Chromebook is my dev machine

Excited about this. I like the Mac HW but hate MacOs. I can't delete iTunes, books, etc. Switched development to a Chromebook for a decent Linux experience.

Is there a configuration for the zip version where I can avoid duplicating the static assets? Thanks

I hate the fact that Apple kept asking me to accept the terms of service for Itunes. I have no intention of using Itunes. I would remove Itunes and many other Apple Crapware from my computer if I could.

It is much more likely that Insurers will buy Congress and the Medicare age will go up and Republican states will opt out.

Part of the problem is that many American companies deliberately give you the run around to stop you from cancelling service. Spaces, a Regus company, is the worst. You have to submit your issues to accounting in TX but they won't talk to you. You talk to Support which can't actually help you. They threatened to call the Police when I complained in person. It took months but I caught them in a lie and threatened charges. A full refund immediately.

https://www.linuxfoundation.org/press-release/google-funds-l... Maybe Google could offer to fund 20% of a bug fixing dept. If Huawei, Intel, Samsung, AMD, and Google each put up 20 employees, it could get done.

Netscape was not selling their browser so that did not matter. I worked at a startup that used their server. We wanted to pay for it but they would not invoice us. Just sending money without an invoice would have been a donation. I sat for hours on their customer support line trying to get an invoice but they never sent one until they went out of business.

I think restaurant, retail ( non food), and hotel owners would feel like 2 weeks of harsh lockdown followed by complete masked opennings would be better than the current situation of months of non-stop partial measures.

Most of China has not had any lockdowns since July. I wish I could travel.

What do you mean quietly beat it? Whenever they had a small outbreak, they would test the entire city. Symptomatic, asymtomatic, everyone in the span of a week. They spent a ton of money on shutdowns, testing, and contact tracing.

My mother lives in BC. She is old and has had multiple problems. She has been in the hospital a few days every month for the last 4 yrs. She never pays anything.

My mother in law is in a similar situation in the US. It costs thousands for a hospital stay with insurance. My wife has spent a few hours every month arguing with the insurance company.

Our retirement plans are in Canada. There is no way that we can afford to retire in the US.

It breaks against the least popular. Clinton was a known unpopular. Now that everyone knows Trump, he was the least popular.

Hydroxychloroquine treats the flu now? Does it treat cancer too?
