Using `truncate` in combination with `cascade` is another that I found unexpected:
"Automatically truncate all tables that have foreign-key references to any of the named tables, or to any tables added to the group due to CASCADE."
So it will simply clear out other tables that reference table to truncate, even if you have `on delete set null` and the foreign key column is null.

I was hoping for a more affordable 6K 32 (or 30) inch monitor but I'm afraid that won't happen anytime soon.

Probably WhatsApp, they moved from FreeBSD to Linux and were on SL before the Facebook acquisition.

I've been using a HP Spectre x360 (13") with Ubuntu 18.04 for the last couple of weeks and it's been working very well for me. I even use the tablet mode when reading PDFs.
Price wise it's quite cheap (same specs as the Dell: i7, 16GB, 1TB SSD, 4k screen) as you can usually find a coupon online. For me it was about EUR300 cheaper than the XPS currently is. So far everything has worked out of the box with exception of the fingerprint reader on the side.

You account is your phone number which is a really smart thing I think. Therefore you do not have to add each of your contacts one by one. And when someone in your contact list installs WhatsApp they automatically show up in your WhatsApp contacts.
It's the quickest direct replacement for SMS.

Would it be possible to make the text inside the Quicklook window selectable?
I often just want to quickly copy something from a file, and Quicklook would be the fastest way to do so.

Last month I was forced to use a netbook for a week and decided to install Ubuntu with Unity on it. I was really impressed with the user experience. I was probably just as efficient (if not more) than on my macbook!

Taking a look at the definition of Crimes per capita it states: "Note: Crime statistics are often better indicators of prevalence of law enforcement and willingness to report crime, than actual prevalence. Per capita figures expressed per 1,000 population.".
According to the crime statistics for The Netherlands the rape victims rate is 0.8% versus 0.4% for the united states [1] (its definition being: "People victimized by sexual assault (as a % of the total population)". However looking at the rapes per capita[2] The Netherlands has 0.1 per 1000 vs 0.3 for the US.
Additionally the murder rate in the US is about 5 times higher than in The Netherlands[3]. The Dutch rate is without attempts, but still I doubt if it would get even close to that in the US.

Even a really close up picture of a face will be seen as nudity. Trying to detect a body (or parts of a body) and determine how much skin is visible would probably be a better approach.
Also quite relevant is this site: http://www.yangsky.com/researches/physicallinguistics/PLUnde... Besides a "breast detector/nipple detector" he also created a couple of weird detectors like a "cowgirl sex position detector" among others. (The link is sfw, the individual detectors are not)
Besides that, quite quickly there were many other free, and arguably better, alternatives available (like flowbite, preline, daisyui, etc) that I ended up using instead.
