   Two things can be broken. But people who choose to be unvaccinated are imposing themselves as an added burden on society, and are acting selfish, though they're not even doing that because they're failing to protect themselves too

   Here in Canada, weed's been fully legal for several years, and our society has yet to crumble. It's been legal for medical use since 2001. It's pretty similar to alcohol in regulation. More places (including the US federally)

   The deferred resource cleanup is really the thing I wish the most was in C. I know that it's relatively un-"C-like", but having to make sure to clean up objects on failure is one of the more annoying things that make my code

   In a lot of ways, from politics to oil, Alberta has a lot in common with Texas.

   Comic books are definitely culture. It's art and story-telling. They're at least as worthy of the title as any other book they might buy. Sure, broadening their culture horizons would be good, if it was easy to enforce spending it

   This gives me hope for Canada, where I am, won't face too many issues even as we slowly start to tick up from the bottom since major reopening happened, allowing indoor dining etc. In the last week, we've passed the UK in number o

    This is part of why I refuse to buy one of their VR headsets. I'll get a Valve Index if I can justify the expense at some point, but I won't get a Quest.

    I hate to be pessimistic, but I'm sure this would lead to situations where dummy companies are set up for registering the patent, and are then acquired by the patent troll, with all those assets.

    I'd call the current title of this post blatantly wrong. In common use, "emotional arousal" and "arousal" have very different meanings.

    I'd argue that if you're using it, you trust it. Otherwise you wouldn't use it. This seems a lot better than just letting the internet provider give a regular DNS.

    Yes, they do show things. When freak events happen over and over, year after year, that's a bad sign, and shows that things are changing.

    This is why I only use old.reddit.com. If they ever stop providing the old Reddit, I doubt I'll keep using it. Sure the old one isn't perfect, but I find the new one borderline unusable, even on a modern laptop. There's a fur

    And all the while, a certain political party can't agree amongst themselves that climate change is actually happening.

    We need nuclear to bridge the gap, and actually let us phase out coal. Yet there's so much fearmongering over it. It's killed far fewer people than coal per energy unit, but people still freak out about it. I'm Canadian, and

    I don't know, so this is a genuine question, but is that a safety-critical part in that case? If it's not it's still not ideal, you want to make sure that your parts will happily survive the car's environment, but it&#x2

    Have you ever used (h)top? It's great at-a-glance view of what's going on, from the command line.

    I think you're wrong. Running a thing in a slightly virtualized environment doesn't suddenly change the nature of the thing. I'd say embedded operating systems are more of exact opposites. A unikernel runs a single applicatio

    To me, a good website should be usable without any added style or scripting. CSS should make it look good, but you should be using the markup to make is usable and roughly laid out how you want, at least with a sensible default.

    I get annoyed when sites don't have things at their maximum volume, and I keep all my applications at the max too, unless I need to mute one. The master volume is the only thing I touch regularly.

    I know it's not helpful to just go "well duh" to things like this. That being said, I feel like that's pretty far from surprising. Menial repetitive things can be incredibly draining.

    Without commenting on any other part, I don't get what you're saying about provenance. They're just using a word correctly.

    You need to drink quite a bit of heavy water before it starts becoming hazardous.
