They are low earth orbit satellites, this is expected and most likely planned for.

The mistreatment goes back 100 years+. Climate change is hitting the region too, so yet another Western 'gift'. That said - warning: unpopular opinion! - they could help by having fewer children. Too many north African and Middle Eastern countries are way above what is sustainable, so quality of life is crashing as they fight for what few resources they have.

Its true eating meat is nice, but it's terrible for the environment. At least consider eating less meet. You are lucky - there are many very tasty vegetarian Hindu meals.

Yeah...except the supermarkets are renowned for treating suppliers like shit. This is pure white washing. Source - my fiancé's dad used to be a manager of a large supermarket in France (but not Carrefour).

It's not just about crashes. You can switch compositor without logging out or save save the full state of an app to disk to 'sleep' the app if you are short of memory. I'm sure people will think of other possibilities too.

This looks very cool indeed - I can't wait until KDE 6 is released!

I've been using OpenSuSE for decades, both for personal and professional purposes.

I can't comment about usability because I've simply used it for so long I know all its quirks and so on. What I will say is the tumbleweed is very stable considering its a rolling release. That's largely due to their automated testing platform. It's got a feel of a work focused distribution like red hat rather than a home OS like Ubuntu. Never the less, I'd recommend it to anyone who asks.

The F16 won't be able to give close air support, it's true - at least initially, but with the SSAM missiles just promised, they will start to take down Russian bombers and fighters - maybe even those troublesome alligators. Maybe not the game changer you were thinking of, but a critical move to protect vital infrastructure and start wearing down Russias air defences.

I'm worried about their flanks...

But still no way to mute the microphone from the headset!
