I used this to move away from MySQL Workbench, which is absolute trash. HeidiSQL is excellent, even though is fugly. Doesn't matter though, works like a charm.

What a dumb article. Whenever you state that AI is helpful in an educational way because it "is better at writing essays" you clearly miss the point of going to college in the first place. The point is not to produce a well-written essay, the goal is to KNOW how to write a good essay. That's one of the skills you need to hone when going to college.

Outsourcing writing, or summarizing, or X to an AI system is like using a cheatsheet on an exam. Sure, you'll get a good grade, but you've learned nothing in the end.

And what has politics to do with this?

When will the current administration be punished for their corruption and illegal activities?

Trump is prosecuted for 34 felonies. His ICE regime is unlawful. Tariffs are deemed illegal. They siphon tax payer money to their own friends and family.

When will the people rise up against this?

I disagree.

I've actually bought a Mac Mini which I use for media consumption and run it besides my Linux (Cachy OS) gaming PC. I have a jellyfin server, but the media client for linux is totally broken.

And, when you use an nvidia card, you really have to do a deep dive on which settings and which render client you want to run. I now have a stable solution that runs KDE Plasma via Wayland, that allows for games to run smoothly. It took me a while to figure that out.

The Linux community also, quite frankly, sucks. When you need to figure something out, you really need to make it a study and only if you know the correct jargon, you are deemed worthy of help. Othrwise you're bombarded with rtfm comments.
