The Philippines and Vietnam, which are on the front lines of territorial disputes with China, maintained strong support for the US. In 2023, the US and the Philippines updated their mutual defense treaty and expanded defense cooperation agreements. Vietnam upgraded its bilateral relations with the US and entered into a maritime cooperation agreement with the Philippines in January 2024. ​

I think it's wild that Vietnam, a communist country, aligns more to US instead of China.

Generally yes, but keep in mind that apt packages are maintained by canonical, while snap packages could be maintained by canonical, the apps' original developers themselves (e.g. Firefox snap is maintained by Mozilla), or a 3rd party unrelated to canonical or the app's developer (i.e. random dudes packaging apps into snap and submit them). If the snap packages are not maintained by canonical, there is nothing stopping the snap packagers to use a different versioning scheme, though it's unlikely. In general, it's a good idea to check the package entry on snapcraft.io to figure out who packaged them so you can decide if it's trustworthy or not.

Since both Russia and Ukraine now have prisoners in their military force, how likely it is to have an Ukrainian prisoner serving Russia fighting a Russian prisoner serving Ukraine in the battle field?

Due to how federation works, downvotes are actually somewhat public because instance owners can query them in lemmy database, though instance owners probably won't tell you if you ask due to privacy reason. If you're interested in something like this, you can run your own instance.

They don't say unlimited, but they also won't say the limit of their reverse proxy service. It's intentionally vague.

Regardless of who's right or wrong in this dispute, it's just another example of why getting deep into cloud vendor lock in is not great for your company. If you went balls deep into cloudflare's offering, e.g. using cloudflare workers, kv, cloudflare access, etc, you can't afford to get kicked out of cloudflare for any reason. What are you gonna do when their sales rep tells you to pay more this year? Refusing is not an option because it'll screw your company hard.

I always knew my English teacher was impolite.

Man, if it were me, I'd probably bit the bullet and bought a new motherboard instead of returning the processor. With my luck, I'll probably run into some issues with the ram sticks and bought some new ones. Heck, maybe I'll run into some issues with the old gpu and buy a new one too! Then the psu would probably need to be upgraded to power the new gpu. The temperature would probably kinda hot so the case must be replaced with new one with better cooling. Heck, now the monitor is too shitty for the hardware and need to be replaced with a new one with hdr and high refresh rate. Then the mouse would suddenly died and need to buy a new one too.

Transreflective lcd doesn't look great though, especially when viewed at angles, or when the room is bright enough to light the reflective layer but dark enough to require the backlight.

So you can put raw chicken meat inside your armpit and it's done? Sounds legit.

Ah sorry, I got it backward. Nvidia is dragging their asses on implementing "implicit" sync, so Wayland devs and nvidia ended up with a compromise and implemented the explicit sync protocol. IMO it's just another example of Nvidia doing whatever they please and forcing everyone to do it their way or highway.

Unlike AMD and Intel, they don't get along with the open source community well and generally do whatever they please, which is why they earned the ire of many linux developers. For example, they're really dragging their asses with implementing explicit sync.
