Great, not only do we have to carry an extra fob, we have to each carry one that individually tracks us.

Mantle predates either, and Vulkan is based on Mantle.

Nature just hasn't switched to Rust (and Arch) yet. Maybe it'll also get rid of those pesky black holes.

They put them up with and without the EU funding info, right? Here most is not EU funded, but there are still signs, because how else do you know what is going on? Or are big construction projects completely unsigned where you live?

Is there any design? It's just the flag and a title + subtitle. Also, the EU is the most efficient government in terms of overhead, and having seen some of it up close not wasting time or money on "unifying design languages"

That would make for a great spinoff: farm the infected for food!

Plus, chucking the contents of a few biotanks in case of infection is a hell of a lot better than having to kill and waste millions of birds. I mean, industrial slaughter isn't a pretty process, even in better plants, which most aren&#

Some Sony TV's only hardware accelerate AV1 content through streaming services, and not through Blueray and USB... Right now, I have a drive filled with H264 content that I can hook up to any old hotel TV and play back. It's gonna

The difference between what some call the upper-upper-class and upper-middle-class is bigger than the difference between middle-class and lower-class. Or, the 1% and the 0.01%. The superrich are perhaps more alien than most aliens would be

I wish somebody would make minidiscs and minidisc players. Can (optionally) replace atrac with opus. Fast transfers but 'slow playback' and more durability than cassette or CD.

> AV1 is not new anymore Uh what. (Embedded) hardware lasts a long time (and it should!). TV's around the globe are not all built after 2018. H264 is still the gold standard if you want to be sure a random device has hardware accele

I always bring a USB drive. All TVs play from USB.

Car ownership correlates negatively with urbanization in NL, so no, I don't think so. And no 40M city (or 4M city) convinces me driving is an acceptable way to get around.

There are many things that will become collectibles. I don't want to spend the energy and time storing various items on the chance they might become valuable.

I refuse to accept them. I got them anyway. Never seen a charity box. The homeless person also doesnt want them.

Metals are separated here, but compared to all the other waste I generate, I'd say it's... pennies on the dollar. Storing and collecting things is by itself an expense too: space, energy (you probably store them in a controlled en

A weak espresso sounds like you're just making a small amount of American/German coffee. How could that be passed of as an espresso? It's not just a measure of volume.

Not surprised, but the best solution is not to let billionaires control, tax free, major parts of society instead. The best solution is building a more functional democracy which is in charge of redistribution.

There were Lada dealers up until the nineties here in NL, but few people drove them. I've never heard anyone describe them as reliable though. To the contrary.

Roombas have been left behind by the competition a decade ago. I avoid uploading data to China by never setting my Dreames and Roborocks up.

They offer a Docker compose file that sets up Collabora for you, but I can't find anything info on other apps, let alone integration. Where can I see what they support?

An important reason against Pascal is the tiny community. It's so easy to cobble things together because there's a huge package base, or even just projects on Git forges. Also, to the extent people put their Pascal packages up, I

I don't need any more hobbies. I already have too little time. Also, shitty coffee ensures I don't drink even more. I failed with beer, so I am probably what some call a connaisseur. I learned a bit about whiskey, and once every 3

Have you seen how many people watch movies these days? Even in the cinema they are scrolling. Not touching alcohol for 12 hours a day does not mean you are not an alcoholic.
