Hopefully all this news Linux is getting for games translates to pressure on makers of all the tools that don't run reliably/at all in Wine and co. to start working on ports. Or at least on making changes to make API translation w

But how does a laser improve on that? They're slow and have to stay on a target for a while to damage it. Close-in defenses fire thousands of rounds per second and every single one of those rounds can take a drone out instantly if it h

Meanwhile this is the normal, expected, and well-received behavior on ATproto. Every platform defines its own lexicon and can optionally support others. It wouldn't make sense for a blogging platform like (for example) Leaflet to show

One thing I've learned from checking up on assumptions I've had about history is that it's easy to underestimate people in past times. They were probably better at communicating this stuff than you think.

Big events in sports and politics are what drive growth for most social networks. You can almost map every growth spike after the 2024 election to stuff happening in soccer, football, and baseball.

Are wind turbines remotely similar? I would have thought something mounted high up on an always-moving top would have to be smaller, lighter, and sturdier than something that sits on the ground in a controlled environment. I'm not sure

People vastly underestimate the danger of a moving body of water in general, but especially when that water is where it isn't normally. Even a relatively tame storm surge picks up sewage, dangerous chemicals, debris, and confused wild

1 meter is bad. That's a lot of water full of things you don't want slamming into you or any structure. Then it comes back full of even worse things.
