Subatomic particles act in insane ways that are absolutely not mechanical or predictible. A very limited size of object behaves "normally". I think believing that the universe mostly acts like our everyday objects is the skewed perspective.
They sold laptops with this feature at one time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5M0TwnkWUM&list=PLec1d3OBbZ8IBeFODHXLy0m0okuZhqJnT
I was on the younger side so it was mostly flash game and animation sites. Homestar runner, albinoblacksheep, miniclip, addicting games, runescape.
I think this is a little doom and gloom for what is a very well intentioned project with an independent oversight board. Is the theory here that a paper receiving this funding would hesitate to expose corruption or be critical of local projects? To be honest, it's just not enough money. $100,000 a year being split among several local news orgs is a nice donation that pays part of someone's salary.
I wonder if corporate funding is the only way to get professional news or not.
That's definitely not what the author is implying. Direct corporate funding has all the same potential problems but with less oversight, more money, and with way more things to hide.
And if you overthrew the ruling class, you'd still want to know how the new system was affecting various demographics. All systems have biases and the only way to account for them is to know about them.
These types of figures are still important to know. You want to see if certain populations are being affected disproportionately and have a baseline to work from when seeing how policy changes are working.
If you make a policy change and see recovery overall but you're still getting 52% of Latinos reporting insecurity, you've done something wrong and you have data to back it up.
The potential for distros optimized for specific tasks without needing to swap out entire kernels. A "gaming" focused scheduler probably looks different from a big data cruncher or a super multi-tasker server.
I trade finding bugs for treats. Cat tracks and alerts, I catch or kill, and cat gets a snack. Everyone wins and no one gets bitten, stung, or weird parasites.
I'm a little confused at the concept, it's a "web" but totally dependent on a single, hard coded DNS that the devs have to content moderate? Why not just have an alternate, lua script only, browser and custom file type?
What's funny is right at launch I would have seriously considered upgrading, but I'm on second gen Ryzen and that platform was deemed not new enough at the time. Now they've added a bunch of BS and even though I think they've removed the restriction I'm over the new shiny thing and am looking heavily into a full linux setup.
Import tariffs and service bans are definitely pretty wonky with dubious benefits, but I can understand the export concerns. Exporting tech that can be used in weapons directly to a country that is threatening a highly strategic ally (Taiwan) is a bad move. Yes they'll get them elsewhere or make them, but you won't have the US government and a US company directly profiting off the destruction of an ally.
Are you concerned about sensitive data leaving the PC or some sort of infection (like a crypto-locker) being brought onto it? Also, what is your threat level? Are you likely to be targeted specifically?
With an airgap, it would be pretty difficult to get data off of it without being onsite. The most important things would be physically securing the device (locked room), using full disk encryption, and using some sort of 2-factor login system. (hardware security key, like a yubikey ideally).
Securing against infection is nearly impossible, as stuxnet showed. Your best bet to beat these is some common sense security with what you're transferring and lots of backups. If you do find an infection, you just blow the whole system up and restore from a clean backup.
Yep Lemmy uses SMTP and in my experience most self-hostable platforms do as well. You can see in the Lemmy config documents how it gets set up: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/configuration.html.
Pronouns are extremely relevant in formal communication. People do their best to infer them from names but that's not always easy or even possible.
Not even a single sentence for the Halloween 2010 update adding the nether.
It took a lot longer from announcement to launch than anticipated. In that time Musk bought twitter and went full out in the open right-wing nut and several other automakers announced and released electric trucks.
The vehicle itself suffers from the panel alignment quality control issues that every Tesla suffers from but exaggerated because the body panels really need tight tolerances to look right. The grade of stainless steel they used isn't great for weather resistance and without a clearcoat it immediately starts to lose the factory finish.
They are wholly devoted to "conserving" systems that are designed to benefit cis, white, straight, wealthy, men at the expense of everyone else. I'm not sure how that could be "good" no matter how they went about it.
In my town the school board weirdo lost by 2 votes. It's so important to vote in local elections.
Made with Gtk4, WebKitGTK, libadwaita and Flatpak.
WebKit based, which is interesting. I don't have much experience with WebKit on Linux.
