  • That is a bit of a selection bias. What you are effectively saying is “the biblical names that have survived to today have staying power”.

    But even that isn’t true here as almost all of the names you cite are significantly different now than their original forms. Looking at your list we have Yeshua, Shemuel, Mikael, Rivka, Yohanan, Miriam, and Paulus. Adam is mostly the same, as is David (with a bit of an accent difference), but the rest didn’t exactly emerge as they were.




  • My power comes from the two sets of solar panels and batteries on my land. It is possible to do without fossil fuels. We’re not there yet for everyone, but the problems you point out are solvable, and if solar/EVs had the same amount of backing from the government over the same timeframe that gas/ICE cars have had, we would be in a very different place right now.




  • It really depends on what you are doing and what you are expecting to get out of the experience. For instance, streaming a game from a gaming pc to a Steam Deck or other portable unit works best when the pc is wired to the network.

    But that’s why you would put it near the router so you don’t have to use 100 ft of cable to do it, so meh.


  • You can kinda make it bend a bit to your whim. While it is technically immutable if you don’t mess with it, it does have everything necessary for using pacman. It just all reverts next time steamos updates. Anything you install directly through the discover portal is permanent, but it does technically have access to anything in the pacman repos as well.

    I unlocked mine long enough to download neofetch and take the screenshot for this. It’ll revert back soon, but I only needed it temporarily for imaginary internet points. :)
