Instead of implied like they don't use USD anymore, but it's more like "in addition to using mostly USD still"

Between May and July of this year, Bolivia conducted financial operations amounting to 278 million Chinese yuan ($38.7 million), which accounts for 10% of its foreign trade during that period

The post title is misleading

China doesn't even have a free healthcare system. Everyone still needs to pay, even though there are subsidies. In real life, there's little difference between the US and China

I can't let you do that, Dave - NixOS, probably

lots of folders on the system are read-only and get changed when you run rebuild

Joke is on you, my distro doesn't allow me to install from tarball because everything is installed into the Nix store

Yes, my laptop is ten years old. It doesn't support nvme and its HDD is dying. I need a new one. I'm not going to throw money on a 5000 series Intel laptop with a GPU that has been out of order for five years.

It can't handle AV1 decode even in software. It supports 4K, but not actually fast enough to play back videos in this resolution.

The HDMI port is half broken. Even if I upgraded the other parts, I'm not going to solder a new port.

I also want to support Framework and their goal of repairable and upgradable laptops

I do overlays of software to patch it all the time. Eventually I'll package it, but it needs upstream fixes, so I'll try to package my own fork

I'm a fan of Framework laptops. They have given people the option to upgrade several motherboards by Intel and released an AMD version to boot. I don't think there's ever been a manufacturer that offered three generations of motherboards on the same chassis. The swappable ports are kind of neat, you can choose which ones you want to use

The 13" is already on sale with a 16" coming later this year

Because they don't exist, the 155mm artillery is being made, the stockpiles are too low
