Thank you, but I never intend to write another thesis. One doctorate was enough, and I work in clinical practice so I don't do a ton of academic writing anymore. But thanks for sharing!

I wrote my thesis in LibreOffice and I would have been SOL if not for Zotero. Who cares what people use? Use what works.

The key is to do it manually. Reject modernity. Embrace reinvention of not just the wheel.

Nah, the trick is to, at random, leave a package out of the text file so the system isn't truly managed and all is chaos!

Package managers are for chumps. Build everything from source and track where you installed it in a single master text file.

There is in no way sufficient evidence in this study to draw this conclusion. This study was in no way designed to provide causal evidence. At best, what we can say is that the people who tend to take sildenafil also are less likely to have alzheimers. It could very well be that the people who take sildenafil are more active, and that activity level staves off alzheimers. Or any number of other third variables. This is not as big a deal as the article is making it out to be. Spurious correlations happen all the time, and it behooves us to be measured in our excitement.

Holy confounders, batman, that article sure does make a big logical leap with insufficient evidence!

Are you using wayland on Elementary?

Is the VGA port on your dGPU or iGPU? I know Fedora uses Wayland by default -- are you using wayland or X.org on elementary?

I wonder what was in the sky that someone didn't want seen. Or if people are just dicks.
