Programmers work on trains too, you know. Some of the busiest metro lines in the world are fully automated, pretty sure that code is held to a higher standard than some shitty YouTube feature.

The problem with MacBook is that they have a shit OS...

Can't help but notice all the Aramco ads during the world cup.

"Who could have foreseen this would happen?"

France has higher prices than several EU countries.

Spain in particular has low prices thanks to their solar and wind, and the Nordics thanks to hydro.

This will be great for their customer service, now they'll have a new excuse for losing your package.

EU member *countries" certainly do, but that's true of all countries that have the ability.

If anything the EU puts limits on what EU member countries and companies can do. By hosting in one of the EU countries you have stronger legal guarantees on data privacy than in any other area. A possible exception is Switzerland (not a EU member), which historically has had even stronger privacy laws, though these have been weakened recently IIRC.

Lots of games run just fine on Wine. Those that don't, usually work on Steam/Proton.

And yet still has more personality than the latest Ferrari.

The restrictions are a good fit for children under 16.

As a parent you want to be able to reach them, and they want to reach their friend.

And as a parent you not want them waste their minds on YouTube garbage.

It shows that you don't need to know how to code to succeed in this type of project.

As someone who does know how to code, I find the approach to be great, as it can motivate others to try similar projects.

That any of this needed I would consider a form of social failure, a path to a future where only corporate entities can own anything.

Much respect for the hacking. Clawing back some freedom in a world determined to take it away.

The developer is "Ascensio System SIA", and they are located in Riga, Latvia.

Why the mention of Russian developers?

You mean the "US-Israel war of aggression against Iran"?

Let's not avoid assigning responsibility when it is so clear.

By that logic all sorts of technical and scientific terms would be "meaningless".

Seems like playing semantics, to not say disingenuous, using "meaningless" to mean "unknown", when the former clearly has a negative connotation.

Weight gain has basically happened across the whole developed world

Could it be that maybe, maybe, there is a link to this and the subject of the paper being discussed?

It's absolutely not a meaningless term, it's a classification in the Nova standard:

And regarding health risks, please ask your doctor about your consumption. You may be surprised.

I'm seeing quite a bit of request for these on my work's GitBook documentation site.

But perhaps these are developers specifically targeting these pages to feed whatever LLM they are using.

a blogging platform with around 80k blogs

But nah, I'm sure OP doesn't know about CDNs.

Linux are also more likely to contribute bug reports and crash dumps.

Security conscious doesn't mean not getting involved with the community and helping useful projects.

You can try running in gamescope, although in my experience Wayland has not been an issue. The few games I have that gave me problems in Wine didn't work any better when using an X11 session.

On the one hand this could be interesting for military and government looking to make sure there are no backdoors in the hardware they are using.

On the other hand, having it public makes exploits more likely since everyone can take a look.

For software this is beneficial, any fixed bug or exploit is then available to everyone and can be easily deployed.

I'm not very familiar with hardware but it seems like it would require new chips to be manufacturered to really fix any issues.

If they use US tech they are just one orange temper tantrum away from losing access...

You must be deep into the Apple walled garden.

And you're right, I'll never get it I guess.

I'll spend more on something of equivalent features for only two reasons: build quality and freedom. Alas, most electronics nowadays offer neither, so cheapest it is.

That's what how we got fuel economy regulations in the 1970s. But it didn't really usher in a golden age of public transport. Probably would just help Tesla and BYD.

Wow you live surrounded by idiots. The dog owners, not the dogs, of course.

Same situation, working from home, although my city has decent public transport so even going downtown is easier without driving. But now when I need to drive for whatever reason, I get frustrated at having to drive. I'll complain about having to take the car, that why can't they put a bus route here, why is it the train doesn't stop at the station I need etc etc.

Which actually surprised me, when my SO said to me: but I thought you liked driving? When we first met you were always working on your car...

Oh yeah. I did, didn't I? It just kinda happened without me realizing it.

Ergonomics, yes, sure.

For the sound though, a block of any material strong enough to resist the string tension will be just fine.

I think you're both right.

Marketing is very effective, and lots of people are willing to pay a little bit more for a particular brand.

On the other hand there's also lots of people who will look for the best value for the money, or want to support smaller luthiers.

As you mentioned usually with experience one gravitates towards the second group, but most instrument purchases is entry level gear for beginners.

Disclaimer: coming from classical guitar world, but have noticed largely the same pattern, eg someone paying more for an Alhambra when a regional luthier will be less. Not that Alhambra is a bad brand, just that those marketing salaries have to come from somewhere!

Fairly old news at this point.

A bit more difficult is growing edible mushrooms along with the plants, for example Boletus edulis, which are symbiotic with oaks and other trees.

The difficulty lies in the waiting period, it can easily take years before any fruiting bodies appear.

If you have a variable named `quit`, you would have a different behavior in running a file vs running in the CLI.
