What I find more interesting is how singlehandedly Libera ate Freenode's lunch. You might expect all of these FOSS communities to splinter apart, but they all seem to be gravitating toward the same place. I wonder what the story behind

Seconded. Manjaro's stable channel is the best of both worlds -- a meticulously manicured package ecosystem with just enough time lag behind the bleeding edge that it's very rare for a bad patch to sneak in. I think it's happ

I am now curious, though. How does Wayland handle key events? I have to imagine it only lets the active window listen in on key events, right? Maybe there's an API for subsribing to specific key combinations?

I think that's because, thanks to the internet, "now" never truly ends. You're often just one Google search away from reanimating any significant event in someone else's life.

Can you imagine accidentally compromising critical government infrastructure? I could almost see this being the premise for a stage play or a Terry Pratchett novel...

This is a thought provoking question, certainly, but it also makes the basic assumption that the person you're asking already plans to have kids (and is not already a parent) I'm set on not having children for moral reasons, so yo

I'll lament political theater as much as the next guy, but it's not a pointless exercise. Last I checked, there's a solid 1/3 Americans making the largely irrational decision to forgo vaccination. We may soon have more v

I think they may be referring to a camera facing the road, not the driver. That's how Toyota's drowsiness sensing functionality works. It tracks the lane lines using a dashboard camera and detects swaying/lane drifting. The s

I think the argument hinges on the technicality that it's not splicing itself into the host genome, so no chance of it becoming a retrovirus or something like that (in the event that the cell's lineage is not extinguished by the i

Agreed, but perhaps they should officially adopt home-manager then? It felt strange to me that the best way to be using nix was a separate community project.

CKIII has several "fun" toggles for ahistoric behavior, so I'm not sure if this argument fits. For example: you can flip the default inheritence system to favor women or even make the majority of people homosexual. I'm g

I think the main advantage is blind typing. No amount of muscle memory can trump the tactile feedback of raised keys and home-row notches. When you're forced to rely on sight, you make more errors and are limited to using just one fing

I just have a hotkey that opens a Node CLI. I know some people who do a similar thing with Python, but I think JS is better at composing quick one-liners.

What are you trying to argue here? All pins on the connector are rotationally symmetric. They may not be useless, because they still increase overall bandwidth, but they are indeed doubled. A non-reversible connector would not use this de

Good catch. I should have either compared the 9 pins of 3.1 or been more specific in saying 4 pins for USB 2. Fun fact: USB 2 Mini/Micro connectors actually have 5 pins (hence my original 4-ish statement). The 5th pin doesn't actu

Sure, it's misleading. That's why the next sentence reads... > Not all of them are strictly necessary for parity with USB-A, but you could cut that number in half quite easily if the plug were not reversible Is 4 not half of 8?

I suppose there's no reason you couldn't do that. I imagine they didn't want to do that because cables (as a platonic ideal) should just carry signals from point A to point B without fudging anything. When you start to screw

tl;dr: It's a chemical called nitric oxide. You spray it up your nose and it is supposed to render most viral particles inert. Here's a quote from that article you should probably be aware of: > She acknowledged that the experi

That on its own is an interesting problem, isn't it? If you insure a car, then crash it for the payout, we would consider that insurance fraud. We make it against the law, because it has a negative externality in the form of making eve

Two major reasons, as far as I understand things. Firstly, reversible plugs are harder to make structurally resilient, they only become feasible cost-wise as stronger materials become cheaper and manufacturing grows more efficient. Secondly

Obviously, part of the problem is that it's a very politically ugly topic. People hate thinking about death so much that they put off writing their wills until the day they actually die, after all! With that being said, there are ratio

Lots of credit cards come with incentives. For example, I get reimbursed a flat 2% rate on all transactions ("cashback"). As long as I keep the card on auto-pay for the full balance, it's a win-win situation: credit building

As you can see[1], the regex checker is based on the JS RegExp.match method. Each cell is always 1 character long (so, either a letter of some kind or an empty space). The str parameter for the check function is assembled by concatenating t
