dont be mean to me posted:lol splendid isolation no, rooted in Marxism. if you don't understand the nature of international aid and how it is never unconditional then lol. USAID explicitly speaks of this in discussion papers, of aids leverage role and how it can be used to exert influence over policy. what do you think the states' / imf / world banks historical activity in Latin America was about, the goodness of their hearts?

Shaggar posted:Linux installs from package repos will include random poo poo you don't need and/or will actively break your poo poo. you can see what's getting pulled in beforehand and if you need some specific version of a package that conflicts you can use virtual envs or local install to not gently caress with things globally. its funny that random idiots are much more trustworthy than large corporations

cinci zoo sniper posted:The Surface Book 2 is aimed at graphic pros, but with a stout NVIDIA 1060 GPU, it's a tempting gaming machine, too. As we observed during our review, gaming drains the battery pretty fast, though. Worse, The Verge noticed that the power supply can't actually charge the battery fast enough to prevent it from draining in some cases. “Surface Book 2 was designed to deliver unmatched power and performance for anyone who needs a powerful machine to work and create, making it a great option for STEM professionals (designers, developers, engineers),” how is this a good thing you stupid Microsoft fucks. this will happen in a range of intensive stem software, not just games, so it’s worthless for long stints of work qirex posted:isn't "max power draw less than the charge rate" like the barest minimum of things you need to figure out when designing a battery powered device? it’s completely unacceptable. Verge score: 7.5
