You're not wrong that would help but this is one thing I actually don't mind. Roads and infrastructure costs are paid partially by taxes on gas which electric cars don't use. Electric cars are also worse for roads (ie heavier). Would I prefer to pay less? Yeah duh of course, but at least (for me) this particular increase in cost actually makes sense so doesn't bother me as much. This is common in a lot of states not just Georgia.

This is just sad. Whether she lied about McDonald's or not has no bearing at all on who I will vote for in the coming election. In the grand scheme of things this is meaningless. In fact if this is literally all that can be dug up about Harris it kind of speaks highly of her.

At the end of the day we all lose cause essentially elections are coming down to whoever is the lesser of two evils and not someone you stand behind.

Yes, hence my comment. Maybe go back and read (all the words) from the top ;-)

From the Ashai website - "Asahi Linux is a work in progress. Many hardware components are not yet supported!"

Just be warned a lot of people have bricked or nearly bricked their computers just trying to get Ashai installed on their Mac. Daily driver this is not but they are making great progress! It will get there eventually.

I mean technically it does. Isn't this the Ashai Linux and isnt it very Alpha / Beta stage? As far as I'm aware this is not recommended for anything critical ( per the project maintainers) and unless OP loves tinkering he is most likely going to hit a lot of unique edge case scenarios that require a lot of time to unwind. If you have a very narrow use case this might work but is probably not worth the headache.

Wait so how is it faulty and bad programming if it disengages when emergency vehicles are present? You'd prefer it to stay on in emergency situations?

Yeah sure if that's what makes you happy.... 👍. Nothing like blinding random people in cars in your spare time.

Ugh I know people feel strongly about FSD and Tesla. As some one who uses it ( and still pays attention hands on wheels when activated) when FSD is active as soon as it sees anything resembling emergency lights it will beep and clearly disengage. I am not sure, but it's possible this person probably is just using Tesla as a scape goat for their own poor driving. However in my experience it will force the driver to take control when emergency lights are recognized specifically to avoid instances like this.

When I was in Atlanta and I initially saw her campaign signs I honestly thought someone vandalized them with cartoon glasses. It's fairly distracting especially since she is supposed to be very competent. I hope she does well in her election but she needs to get new photos.

Docker as mentioned above is great especially if you're going down the homelab rabbit hole. You'll find it really useful to get familiar with for future projects.

Another alternative is to install DietPi. It's an operating system for a raspberry pi. It has all these programs you mentioned with install scripts including docker and installing (and updating) is as easy as checking a box. Also has a pretty good community in case you run into an edge case.

eBay is your friend, Shield came out about 9 years ago so lots on the used market. Also the phoning home for the paranoid can also be handled. Since it's been around for so long there's not a lot left someone hasn't already figured out. Maybe not the perfect answer but worth considering. As a media player it just works and it's tried and true.
