You're thinking PXE/netboot, which netinstall disks are often used for, but you can use them independently of netboot.
Generally you have a minimal disk or recovery partition that initiates boot and offers the package manager, basic file and disk utilities, and a script to install a list of important packages. Basically nothing else. A handful of distros offer them, but they're easy to make too. I usually have one in a partition alongside by boot partition. This is very similar to the distros that offer a "recovery" boot option.
The point is that instead of downloading a static version of the OS at 2GB+ these days, you have a tiny boot disk that downloads all the latest and greatest versions of the files you need, or allows you to fix breakages. This is what MacOS and these Linux distros have been offering for years.
Fish has more baked in solutions to problems I have in ZSH that require plugins and hacking to get working somewhat properly. Specifically, much better command completion, configuration, and flexibility. The cost is that it's a little heavier out of the box. The rust rewrite they did actually improved that massively though and seems to have gone well.
Yep, he's changed his tune significantly. There's accusations of them getting leverage on him through his family, but his own personal convictions outside geopolitics are also pretty reprehensible in recent years, so either the CCP hand is so far up his ass we can't see the elbow anymore, or he's changed.
The full article has images that are MUCH more damning. They were discussing how risky it was for him to be in that chatroom in an airplane and discussing looking at and handling CP.
That's the amazing thing about these leeches. When the IRS or courts are involved, their bank accounts are basically empty and they're in the middle of filing bankruptcy. But when there's palms to grease or another yacht or mansion to buy suddenly the money returns...
The Panama papers showed us exactly how it's done and yet effectively NONE of the loopholes were fully closed, just papered over while the public was watching, if that.
I'm not super scientific with it, but the shot goes:
21g at a medium-coarse espresso grind (3 on my machine) into a 49mm stepdown. Stepdown came with matching filter paper, puck screen, and puck screen spring. No idea how much that changes things but it's what I've dialed it in with.
87c
Turn on pump slowly until 2g are in the cup, then cut
Bloom 60s with the valve open (usually have about 20-30g in the cup at the end of the bloom)
1 bar until target weight gets hit.
It usually makes a balanced cup- not overly sweet or sour or bitter, somewhere in the middle of all 3. I like it but I'm sure many wouldn't. Most people seem to think that any sour in the cup is bad, and I understand that but like the balanced profile more because I can get those really hard to find flavors in the cup more prominently.
Tried a new mucilage fermented coffee (EA Decaf) from Frequent Coffee
It claims- notes of jackfruit, passionfruit, and pineapple on the package. From most rosters I giggle at the descriptions and sip the coffee that tastes like coffee... But I've learned that Frequent says what they mean and means what they say.
To be fair, these are their special more experimental beans. I usually buy a bag or two alongside something more mainstream from them. Some of these special bags are amazing, others are not for me, but they are all super fun.
I normally brew a LONG pull via extra low pressure in my GaggiaMate'd Silvia with a deep stepdown basket. For a medium to medium-dark roast like 21g in to 90-100g out. It works for me and that's really all I care about. Gives me the delicate flavors of a nice pourover with the vibrancy and control of espresso.
Well this bean has proven to be a real challenge with my normal technique. Usually if it's sour I dial back to 90g. 80g at most.
Tomorrow I have resolved to try 70 and I'm still not confident. The pineapple and passionfruit flavors are so strongly sour I might have to go to... Ugh, like 1:3 or something. Pray for me.
Lots of legal documents in the US are required to be filed in 216mm × 356mm (sometimes 330mm, both are considered standard and fit where necessary), everything from court orders to congressional acts and those stupid executive orders the orange fascist loves to sign about anything that he manages to think about for more then 2 minutes.
But the bigger problem is that the size is also standardized on the storage and processing side, so switching sizes means we would have to change all the governmental filing cabinets, folders, folios, binders, etc too, which is slightly less likely than us finally adopting the metric system.
This is only true for a very limited amount of ice. Once ice cubes are fully submerged (and held under by more ice), the displacement rules change because ice is actually less dense than water, which is intuitive, because the ice floats.
I also want to point out that the Wayland devs are, by and large, the exact same people as the X11 devs. These aren't white monster fueled hotshots working for a FAANG with a massive case of Not Invented Here. The people who knew X11 best designed Wayland from the foundation up to be the better solution.
I firmly believe that in 5 years time, the "frontier" models will be used only for offload from small, fast, efficient local models.
Honestly these days 95% of use cases can be satisfied by Qwen 3.8 27B, which isn't a tiny model that can fit anywhere, but it's much smaller than a similarly capable model was a year ago.

How so? This is basically a net install procedure, which operates right out of most distros package system.
Ah, the honorable and glorious variety of K-pop.

It becomes apparent in the delivery.

Rancilio Silvia with Gaggimate installed. Been a workhorse.

You're probably right. Appreciate you trying to help me understand.

I'm American and have worked in corporate offices all my life and grew up around the printing industry.
A4/SI is super common here too. "Letter" is just something used by home users. But very often A4 is sold as "Letter A4" right next to the other paper.
Now "legal" print format is a true abomination and unfortunately is much less likely to be easily replaced.
