I'm a user of Firefox, and have backspace to go back disabled, due to having accidental navigation happen way too many times. When I do want to go back, I can always press alt+left

Note that Rust protects you from data races, but you can still run into problems like deadlocks.

I think once you have upgraded to Windows 10 with a particular license, you're free to do a clean reinstall of Windows 10 using that license without any problems.

In Rust the {} are mandatory, but you don't need the (), so you can just write this: if a == b { stuff(); }

Either that, or end up evaporating in the atmosphere, precipitating somewhere, and then flowing into the sea.

I personally feel like the only way out now is some sort of active geoengineering solution. You're not going to convince everyone across the world to cut their emissions of greenhouse gases, and I suspect that even if you manage to do

I don't personally feel like something like this should be patentable, but Gielis is definitely following both the rule and spirit of the patent law. I hope Hello Games and Genicap can come to some sort of agreement. Edit: As another c

A better solution would probably be to buy a well-shielded USB cable for the drive, then.

I've actually written an userscript not too long ago to hide downvote arrows, to prevent accidental downvotes.. Seems that's not too necessary now that they're undoable.

I'd say crop circles are made by bored people, using planks with rope tied to them, and markers so they know which way to flatten the crops.

Doesn't ctrl-z actually send SIGTSTP rather than SIGSTOP? I think the difference is that SIGTSTP can be caught, while SIGSTOP is always an unconditional stop.

As far as we can tell, the effect of measuring an entangled particle is at least 10000 faster than the speed of light. According to theory, it's instant. You can't use it to transfer any information, though.

tee doesn't store all the input before writing as far as I know, so it wouldn't work either in this case.

I wonder what was causing the measurement, then. Magnetic repulsion due to the current flowing through the cable?

Sonar sends out sound and then listens for the echoes though, rather than just take in sound from other sources.

Northern Ireland might decide to become part of Ireland though, which would keep you in the EU. I wouldn't sell your house yet.

Note that this is with over 13 million lines of code, that in the long past used to be the Netscape browser. I can't imagine adding multiprocess support to such a codebase being very easy, even with significant modernisation of the cod
