They're saying 8ms real-world latency on the proprietary 2.4GHz protocol with up to 4 devices per hub. Worse when using Bluetooth compatibility. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbNI0rNJVt8&t=1m13s

WebRecorder [0] is the best implemention of this that I've tested. It runs as an extension in your browser, intercepting HTTP streams, so as long as you open a page in your browser the data is captured to reproduce it exactly. It outpu

Last non-bot commit was over 2 weeks ago, and it seems to be mostly 1 account working on it. I don't think it looks active enough to be the big schism it's made out to be?

You should probably put some quotes around `$PWD`: alias npm='docker run --rm -it -v "$PWD:$PWD" --net=host --workdir="$PWD" node:25-bookworm-slim npm' ...Does this always work? I don't use much JS.

Also file conflicts. Installing an RPM/ALPM/APK should warn you before it clobbers existing files. But for a one-off install script, all it takes is a missing environment variable or an extra space (`mv /etc/$INSTAALCONF

It's so not, though. Half the time if you read one of those install scripts it's just an `if`-chain for a small number of platforms the developer has tested. And breaks if you use a different distro/version.

Please. The only thing that's stayed constant through GNOME's history is that the developers have been rooting for other Linux projects to fail, like when System76 announced they were starting COSMIC (since completed and released)

What about adblocked views by YouTube Premium subscribers? The point is that a view counter should show an accurate and honest count of views, because that's what it's presented as and lying is bad. Why should ad blocking have any

by Intralexical 1y ago
Worse than that, YouTube relies on client data for view counting while also actively creating an incentive for ad blockers to disrupt client data because of their anti-ad blocker measures. This reminds me that I think it was the Invidious

Presumably, it would affect that, and also long-term channel growth. Which would be dastardly if it were intentional, because it would basically cull the platform of channels who voice support for ad blocking. I wonder if CTR was affected.

If Dirty Stan spends an hour making guests uncomfortable at your house, some of those guests might come to think of you as a bad host even though Stan's behavior was the issue. I think it's reasonable to attribute moral responsibi

The entire way this issue was figured out was because it only affected desktop views that weren't monetized to begin with, which the guy in the linked video guessed meant adblockers. If the monetization weren't limited to ad-watch

You mean those words written on paper that get immediately torn up as soon as they become inconvenient for people in power? Russia had term limits too. Once.

Yep. The point I'm making is that there is no precedent in nature for a complex animal maintaining homeostasis indefinitely like that (that doesn't rely on bulk regeneration). And given such immortality would presumably be highly

Some would say that if they were able to find meaning in life or cope with mortality, then they wouldn't have hoarded so much money and tech in the first place.

The "law of biology" at play here is tradeoffs. Aging is not single disease, but an accumulation of error states and maladaptations which arise in a thermodynamically unstable system of high complexity, existing in an even more dy

Wouldn't it be great if every figure we learned about in history class was still alive and kicking today? Wouldn't that just make everything so much better? "So long as men die, liberty shall never perish."

Because a cancer cell pulls it off by sacrificing all of the cell's useful functions, resulting in the destruction of the host organism as well as the death of the cell itself.

Beware that `set -e`/errexit has quite a few pitfalls. For example, it's automatically disabled in compound commands that are followed by AND-OR command chains. This can especially bite you if you define a function which you use a

Long args are less portable, unfortunately. IIRC they're not POSIX at all, and also likelier to be different across GNU, BusyBox, BSD, and Mac tools.

Isn't it possible for the pathogen to be limited by accumulation of its own waste products or depletion of specific nutrients before it destroys the whole sample, or for the meat to be harvested before the pathogen has finished propaga
