It isn't 'just another' DRM platform. It's in a league of its own with the efforts create a virtual OS-platform to run games indefinitely. That's neither technically nor functionally trivial.

The problem with filters is they have a lower limit. PM2.5 cuts out much of the smell, but none of the carcinogenicity (PM0.1 or so). The only filter that really works is a sealed cap. Burning biomatter is just not worth the health impact o

That's great but of course the problems is that for Americans that work 2-3 jobs and commute by bus there isnt much time for cooking, let alone scouring their area for good unprocessed foods. As always, only the rich can afford the che

I worked at a place that 'required' this, but when I asked what would happen if I didn't there were no concrete actions. So I never did them and I lived happily ever after. Well, I left the place because people that 'req

Isnt suspending an adaptation to trauma? The trauma of slow drives/startup or being interrupted constantly? When I put my machine e away I am usually 'done', and when I open it, it isn't to see where I left off.

The price is not really for the water, which is too cheap to Meyer, but for the infrastructure, which is per liter transmitted a much higher fraction of the cost than industrial/agricultural users.

Lunduke has been picking so many fights, I'm a bit lost as to whether I should pay attention or not. Sure, it doesn't seem great, but the Linux foundation putting money in other areas of the ecosystem is hardly a good point. Show

Especially Bosnia, there was very much no correlation between territory and ethnicity, so the difficulty is built in. I don't know if this was much better in Kosovo, it does seem like that sliver of mostly Serbians are on the wrong sid

An even more popular alternative is Resilio Sync. I still use it because somehow sharing with the tech savvy isn't a big problem, but with the unsavvy is. A GUI and a single string is on the edge of the possible, and I share much more

Maybe another difference is that some/many European countries people just don't not pay bills. I once heard it said about the Netherlands as being attractive to do business.
