OrderS of magnitude? How heavy does this guy think we are?

Yeah, adding a separate microarchitecture like amd64v3 would be a separate item. They might be able to do that with amd64v3 overlay repos that only contain packages that most benefit from the newer microarchitecture.

My laptop had 2 USB4 with type C connectors, a USB 3.2 type A connector and a USB 3.2 type C connector, but recently it's had an HDMI connector instead of the 3.2 type C.

It's a distilled version that becomes a potion in your stomach. There are several versions of this, my favourite of which is "instant bubbling potion, just add water"

Advocating against voting for Democrats, no matter what the particular language, is advocating for actions that will increase the chances of Trump getting elected, of Republicans having majorities and of Israel's further escalation in Palestine, in addition to all the other bad things Republicans will do.

The time to move Democrats on the issues is not now. Those times were during the primaries (in which I voted uncommitted on the presidential level and for pro-palestinian candidates on other levels) and after the election through things like lobbying.

If there are particular third-party candidates who have any reasonable chance of winning rather than being a spoiler (I don't know of any), it's reasonable to advocate to their electorate that one vote for them instead of the Democratic candidate. However, if one supports Palestinians and opposes genocide, the best vote in the presidential election and in most national or state elections on November 5 is for the Democratic candidate. That's not a "vote blue no matter who" opinion or an "all you need to do is vote for the Dems" opinion. It's harm reduction in the short term so that we can ensure that there actually are medium and long terms for as many people as possible.

By the way, this is "new MADrid," not (as one would expect) "new madRID."

The grizzly bear is Ursos arctos horribilis, which translates as "horrible bear bear."

Question in the title. I don't want to see posts from lemmynsfw, but I don't want to just blanket disable NSFW stuff either since the tag gets used for other things. Is there a way to do this or do I have to individually block each community that shows up in my feed?
