If you listen to non-western music the streaming library shrinks a lot.

Arguably it hurt them with the PSP as well by trying to get everyone to buy UMDs for their movies and store music on memory sticks.

Some implementations, like GoToSocial, do support importing posts from another instance.

No these aren’t optical sensors like those, they’re full blown cameras.

Cobb County at least on their website says they use camera sensors as well as buried induction loops.

I see them everywhere in Metro Atlanta. You can tell because there’s what looks like a little camera above each direction facing traffic light.

They’re extremely common in the U.S. now.

This was the reason they built such an extensive application compatibility shim system into Windows 95. If a poorly coded application breaks on an OS upgrade, the user is going to blame Windows, not the application.

Good thing Sweden isn’t selling jets to Cambodia then.

As a fellow Hokie I'm just happy they aren't calling us Virginia Tech University.

Bangkok changed the plans of its two most recent transit lines (Yellow and Pink) from standard rail to monorail for the cost savings - since they're completely elevated. I guess they solved the evacuation issue by making the space between the two rails a solid platform.

I believe King Rama IX was not technically a U.S. citizen because his parents were considered foreign diplomats. In any case he never tried to claim citizenship and was only ever considered Thai.

I’ve been watching ReactOS development for years and and progress is slow but steady. I’m excited for the point where it will be fully usable as a drop in replacement for old Windows software.

It’s all by design. Car dependent suburbs with no transit access make it easier to keep “undesirables” out of your neck of the woods.

Robert Moses infamously made great use of infrastructure and urban planning to reinforce redlining.

Are there any advantages to BasiliskII/SheepShaver these days? Seems like QEMU has caught up on the Macintosh emulation side for both 68k and PPC. The only hole is early Macs which Minivmac handles quite well.

"If you're building a skyscraper out of reinforced concrete, the only way for it to be stable is to design it in the shape of a pyramid."

Except the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur are standard supertalls built out of reinforced concrete?

Pretty sure it was tongue in cheek.

I hope that’s the case. It’s certainly a lot less chilling than intentional censorship.

Facebook explicitly told them that Linux was remaining on their cybersecurity filter.

Only reason I'd use it over QEMU/KVM is that it has 3D acceleration for Windows guests.

Same. Had an Xbox One last generation and I'm not fully gaming on the Steam Deck. The "good enough" performance at the huge benefit of open platform and portability is just what I need.

Slackware is the happy medium I've found between BSD and Linux. It's unashamedly unix-like and uncomplicated, and has its own rich ports tree through Slackbuilds.

If they can't afford it, why do they keep turning down federal money that will let them do exactly that?

They can and do refuse to work if they detect they're running in a VM.

They want to have their cake and eat it too. To use AI to get rid of paying for labor, but also not assume any of the risks that go along with it.

Only the inner part where you can draw a circle contains actual data. The rest is just blank, but as long as it’s balanced it works just fine.

More fundamentally they ought to go back in time and change it so instead of making the 787 they made a 737 replacement.

They did. It was called the 757. But Boeing killed it off about 5-10 years too early.

I had a few. The quality was about what you’d expect for a video on a game boy cartridge.

Sounds like a good way to suss out the materialistic people in your life to be honest.

Dang. I loved that it was still there as a relic of when it wasn’t quite as mainstream.

After all this time I think Facebook still you gives the option to send you PGP encrypted emails, which is pretty wild.
