I mean, I get the point that Linus was trying to make, but man he really could have worded it better. As it stands it feels like an "akshually" merged with a technicality-gotcha

Every video about a laptop I've seen since he invested has had the framework disclaimer, including multiple shortcircuits by Alex.

Oven cooked french fries are a thing, and have a surprisingly high popularity

Albert Einstein was a college professor for a large chunk of his life (Bern, ETH Zurich, etc) I think he should get a pass.

Maybe because most programs you'd use (browser, word processor, spreadsgeets, etc) requires 8+ gb, and the non-windows side of MS wanted the requirements so edge, word, excel, etc are guaranteed to actually work on every computer that ships with those programs?

Not 100% applicable here, but some websites use stored ip addresses as a safety measure, since a stored ip address' location can be compared against that of the current login attempt. This way, a guy trying to steal your account from the other side of the world would be flagged and you'd be alerted via email and such.

Woah, so the big 3 (Mastodon, Kbin, and Lemmy) of the fediverse text/discussion-based social media can all used from a single account/feed. That's awesome!

I didnt fan over him, but I definitely respected some of "his" earlier ventures, especially SpaceX. Now I just laugh when I hear his name

The greatest tragedies are often the conflict between completely acceptable powers, not good and evil.

Yeah, that's a really good takeaway from this kinda of history.

Sun Quan was the weakest of the three leaders though. So indicisive!

In terms of individuality and becoming emperor of all of China, perhaps. He had a surprising number of really competent aides and generals, when compared to Cao Cao and Liu Bei. He was the kind of leader that was much more of a skilled manager of capable talent than a director who knew exactly what commands to give. In the long term, tho, this admittedly lead to politicking and infighting that cause Eastern Wu to rollover and die.

Also, it's worth considering that he was also arguably the most important of the three for their legacy. The Southeastern part of China is incredibly important /influencial in later chinese history, from Tang to Song to Ming and all the way to today, and Sun Quan had the unenviable task of fully absorbing the distinct jiangnan and southern chinese customs and idiosyncrasies into what we nowadays think of as chinese culture.
