> I believe vegetarians can be healthy.

There's no need for belief, all over the world vegetarians live around a decade longer. There could be any number of confounding factors of course but the burden of proof concerning health and diet is definitely on the pseudo-carnivores consuming their packaged flesh.

The Raspberry Pi OS is just not great. I worked with one lately through an education project and was disappointed by the DE and system defaults in a lot of cases.

It's definitely not representative of the best that Linux desktops have to offer now.

HN is so fucking stupid.

I never needed to turn around my health as a vegetarian. There's about a 99.999% chance that I'm stronger and faster than you, I wish I could demonstrate. You'd be embarrassed saying what you just said in front of me!

It's quite useful for buying drugs.
It would work like any other 3rd party website verification, e.g. some of these options that Google uses for their webmaster tools:

https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/9008080?hl=en#c...

Uploading a file that contains a token and then serving that file at a specified URL is common.

So, you'd need to go and claim the money that yep.com is apparently going to keep track of for each site or subdomain.

Yeah, what could be so hard about buying a 50 billion dollar "big computer" and hiring 10,000 PhDs for an online platform that doesn't exist yet? Ha!

It's real for sure though, this is HN after all. The general idea of free public universities based on an open curriculum is good, but whatever the OP is talking about is not going to get us there.

Yeah, this person is probably under-paid and definitely over-worked, but having 4 years of full-time employment in tech at age 28 is a good position to negotiate from for a better job.
