  • FedEx is so very complicated, FXG isn’t union, Federal Express is, IIRC something to do with them being under FAA authority. Not sure about FedEx Freight, FedEx LTL or FedEx Expediting. And that’s just part of the mess of the company. As to the name thing, that was started by RPS, FXG’s predecessor, and was a single contractor buying a route from RPS, with RPS supplying vans and uniforms much the way Amazon does with their companies, but it’s entirely possible that some of those drivers bought multiple routes and formed up their own little company, or that FXG followed in Amazon’s footsteps and switched to contracting with companies rather than individuals.







  • Are you talking why for the user, or why it was developed? The main reason it exists is that System 76 like the Gnome desktop, but didn’t like stuff Gnome was doing, so they decided to make their own version from scratch in Rust. For a user, I don’t think there’s any real compelling reason to use it, especially not right now, unless you love Rust, or have the same feelings about Gnome that S76 did.

    I think the browser issues are just Firefox, I suspect it isn’t playing nicely with Wayland or they haven’t figured it out, as tabs aren’t draggable, but there’s a move tab menu choice. Also right click doesn’t work right, I forgot to mention that, right clicking on a link opens in a new tab and switches you to it, even if’n you don’t have that on. As to the keyboard, the layouts section is completely missing in Cinnamon’s keyboard menu, and some research online came back that there’s no way to change the layout, apparently it was overlooked by the Wayland project.





  • Apparently one bad performance, a performance that has little to do with the actual job, is enough to get him fired? Yes, yes, I know, he’s stumbled, he’s not perfect, but is anyone? I find the whole response to be sus as hell, and more than a bit racist. One debate and their willing to dump him? This sounds more like a paid attack on Biden fronted by sell out Democrats than a real response. And the rather noticeable lack of suggesting the VP, a black woman, takes over sounds more than a little bit racist. Why not bring Harris up? Give her a bigger more visible role in the administration and the campaign? Show whether or not she’s up for the job? Essential let the American people test drive her as a president.
