Basically, the anonymous peer reviewers told the authors "you should cite these additional papers in your work". It's expected that any such recommendations would be relevant to the topic at hand, and therefore are worth bringing attention to, but the authors clearly do not agree that they have anything to do with their research.

Personally I just use an ad blocker

Because you don't have a driveway/hose, I would try something like the Simple Green "OxySolve" cleaning concentrate (it says it's for power washers but there are mixing instructions for "manual cleaning"). Most concrete cleaners have some pretty harsh chemicals in them that could damage your bathtub, but the Simple Green stuff seems pretty tame.

LLMs are also really good at generating regex based on a short description. It's saved me a bunch of time, since I don't use regex often enough to become proficient at it, but it's necessary for certain particular things (such as find/replace with Notepad++, or hyper-specific URIs in Bitwarden)

Added context for anyone who isn't aware, Schwarzenegger was the Republican governor of California from 2003 to 2011.

Personally, I would not recommend diving into Linux headfirst by installing it as your only operating system. If you can afford an additional small drive (128GB should be plenty), I would suggest buying one and installing something like Linux Mint on that, while putting Windows on your main drive.

That way, you can switch between them whenever you want to (when you turn on your computer, you can just use a menu to choose which drive to boot to), and get somewhat familiar with Linux before deciding if it's worth your time to really dive in.

(There's a way to put both operating systems on the same drive, but it's really easy for something to go wrong and end up with one of the operating systems inaccessible. Since you're inexperienced, I would avoid going that route for the time being, and just keep both on separate drives.)

That makes sense, but how well did that work in 2016? Pretty fucking badly, and now we're stuck with a conservative Supreme Court for possibly the next few decades.

Change needs to start from the ground up. Once left-leaning voters can actually match conservative voters' numbers in off-year elections, then we can talk about reforming the party.

No, you should not "generalize" when those generalizations are negative and targeted at a specific group of people. That's called stereotyping and is widely considered a bad thing.

That's a pretty sexist outlook. I don't think the image makes an entire 51% of the population angry. And I think people like Jeff Bezos show that not all men require "so little to be happy". It's almost like genders are not hive-minds, and generalizing anything that broadly is only going to result in looking like a boomer who complains about how terrible their spouse is.

Same here. I only support those companies because they're the best options for what they offer, and I'm not gonna let perfection get in the way of progress. Even though Mozilla is making some business choices I don't agree with, I'm gonna keep recommending Firefox until some other non-Chromium browser comes along (which unfortunately isn't gonna happen for a long time).

Same with AMD- they are so much more friendly to the open-source community than Nvidia or Intel, so I will recommend them to everyone, until the moment they start being worse. At that point, I'll start recommending whoever seems best at that point in time.

You could always put it into service as a network wide ad blocker with PiHole. Might also speed up web browsing a bit too, since PiHole also works as a DNS cache.

I'm not sure I exactly understand what you're asking, maybe some pictures would help?
