  • I’ve used EaseUS’s free partition manager to clone Windows 10, in order to move from an hdd to an empty SSD. It handled setting up a place for itself to boot into while cloning, and managed to get the partition table etc right as well. There are alternatives for sure, but the nice UI put me at ease(…) for some reason.

    You’ll probably be fine with the proprietary Nvidia driver aside from minor annoyances, assuming you have a relatively new card- on one PC with a legacy card waking from suspend doesn’t work, on a relatively new 960gtx waking results in glitched fonts until I log out of the user. Steam under Wayland occasionally has UI glitches with the top drop down menu for me, though a) supposedly it’s better under flatpak b) supposedly it was fixed recently broadly, waiting to get that update.

    And remember to back things up before making changes!

    Continued the tradition of hollowing out the middle class for wealthy donors like any other politician. The man represented Delaware for God’s sake. Economy got “better” while people continued to get gradually poorer, materially.

    I guess that’s better than having every index in the world crater because chatgpt said tariffs on everyone though, so.















  • kW/kWh aren’t commonly used outside of electrical applications in the US, so people are less readily able to quantify and compare in other contexts. Looking at a variety of natural gas companies’ bills, you’ll get volume multiplied by a therm factor instead of simply using kWh; horsepower for not just cars but even electrical motors and pumps.

    I think the average person will have looked at their electricity bill and put the basics together about watts and watt hours. As for comparison with natural gas, I think he didn’t touch on the real metric people then turn to- cost. Depending on the state it can be much cheaper to use gas vs electricity.
