there are some people for whom that taste is very much worth it.

You are correct, but to be clear, it’s not so much that tasting this scotch is a life changing experience; it’s more that to these people, 27k is just chump change.

Pi Hole couldn’t block YouTube ads last time I tried it, which is one of the main things I want to have adblock for. So I went back to ublock origin.

The reason for this is that git rebase is kind of like executing a separate merge for every commit that is being reapplied. A proper merge on the other hand looks at the tips of the two branches and thus considers all the commits/changes “at once.”

You can improve the situation with git rerere

I don’t know if phone call spam is only an American thing or something. In my country (and most of Europe) that stuff is effectively banned and doesn’t really happen.

Still hate getting calls though.

Reddit would become just another instance with no API control

Being that large of an instance gives a lot of api control all by itself. Theoretically Chrome is just another browser and member of WHATWG. in practice, if they implement something it immediately becomes a de facto standard. Reddit would be the same.

I wouldn’t bet on Huffman’s exit doing anything of consequence either. Reddit is now under the control of investors who want a return. One way or another, monetisation of users will increase.

We have geodesics for that.

I could not find the 47 grams figure on the page you linked, where is that stated exactly?

Intuitively speaking, how many times does half of a thing fit into a quarter of a thing? The answer is, exactly one half time.

Might be talking about the United States specifically. IIRC the constitution denies individual states the right to mint coin or issue bills of credit, that is a prerogative of the federal government.

The numbers are different because the site doesn’t naively count every line but merges some as a single package. For example, at the very top of the Debian list we have 0ad, 0ad-data, 0ad-data-common. These are all counted as one single “package.”

One might argue that doing the comparison in that way is more useful to an average user asking “which distribution has more software available.”

They say that because https://repology.org/repositories/statistics/total says so. Debian unstable has 38k packages according to that page.

Come on. The way humans behave in groups is certainly part of human nature. And when we’re talking about solving problems of a society, it is the most relevant part.

What I’m hearing you say is, we can solve our own problems, we just need human nature to be different. Which, well… Good luck.

This isn’t about phones. It’s mainly about cameras recording 4k/8k video, and devices such as the steamdeck storing lots of games.

at some point some proto-chicken ancestor laid an egg that was different enough genetically that it counts as a chicken. In other words, a non-chicken laid a chicken egg

This is incorrect. If I take an ostrich egg, empty it out through a small hole, then put a chicken fetus inside, it does not suddenly become a chicken egg. We must therefore conclude that “chicken egg” can only reasonably be defined as an egg laid by a chicken.

The proto-chicken ancestor can never lay a chicken egg, it can at most lay a proto-chicken egg which by some mutation contains a chicken. Therefore the chicken came first.

Ctrl-a and Ctrl-e are much faster to type than home/end and do the same thing (assuming a standard readline-enabled command line).

All the keys in the cluster above the arrow keys are really too hard to reach to be of real practical use, IMO. Actually that includes arrow keys as well. Just too far from home row.

Shin Ramyun black is a superior instant noodle IMO. Though personally I really like Samyang buldak hot chicken noodle.

I like to add a soft boiled egg and some sliced spring onion.

This is called a tray bake, and it’s great. I recommend chucking some (chopped) vegetables in with it: tomatoes on the vine, carrots, broccoli, asparagus, Brussel sprouts, cauliflower, onion, garlic… Limitless possibilities.

You can also do this with salmon (gotta be a bit more careful with timing on that). Or bacon. Or do sweet potato, or pumpkin.

What he means is, if you want to download the document from ISO that describes the standard, you have to pay a fee. Here’s their store page: click.

It’s about 190 USD for a 38 page document describing the rules of the standard. There’s another document with extensions for a similar price. Quite pricey for a PDF file obviously, and the RFC is free to download.

On the other hand, no one in the history of time has gone “hmm, I don’t know how ISO-8601 works, let me go buy this document from the ISO store to figure it out.” Most people just call datetime.isoformat() or whatever their library function is called.

Firefox has the same problem with V3, it has nothing to do with the browser, adblocker V2 will stop working, because are the advertising companies wich will use V3 scripts.

What the hell are you talking about? This has nothing to do with what advertising companies do.

The main reason adblockers don’t like manifest V3 is that the webRequest API is gone. The proposed replacement, declarativeNetRequest, does not have the same functionality.
