NYC taxis drive an average of 180 miles per shift[0] so they'd need to triple the range or have some sort of system where they can swap their depleted taxi for a freshly-charged one mid-shift. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org&#x

Oh absolutely, I'm with you there. LED strips are so unnecessary. I'd much rather the money go towards something functional.

I did some math, supposedly the complete install of the latest Call of Duty game is a 200GB download[0]. At 1gbps we're talking 26 minutes of downloading. At 2.5gbps we're talking 10 minutes of downloading. I'm honestly surpr

Nope, I hadn't heard of that. Neat. I see two problems though: 1. I can see this being effective against larger landlord that will have many units available every year, ensuring that adequate testing can be performed. But on smaller la

Are we sure that law is working as intended? Or are employers simply not admitting to factoring race into the decision? It is next to impossible to prove a candidate was rejected on the basis of race, especially when you can legally reject

What alternative solution to housing-related racism would you suggest?

> You should be able to select freely who you want to have live in your house We already tried that. It turns out that people are racist, so now we need laws to protect against that. It sucks for all the decent non-racist folks but the a

I was already building the vast majority of it from source because I enable CPU optimizations for the specific microarchitecture in the machine (nixpkgs.hostPlatform.gcc.arch and nixpkgs.hostPlatform.gcc.tune), so once I learned about the r

That's how I manage all of my virtual machines: building an ISO from a NixOS config and booting it as a virtual machine. I'm going to take some time to see what bits of this I can copy to slim down my ISOs. One additional benefit:

Not at all. At this point, I don't see improvement in the future; I'm just hoping I'll be able to maintain my standard of living. We are hurtling towards an economic collapse, an unemployment crisis, and the risk of major war

> It adds npm as a dependency, to a go build? Programs often invoke other programs through the exec* family of syscalls. For example, git is written in C but it ships with perl dependencies. It is not unreasonable to assume pass-cli adde

True, but looking at a compromised PKGBUILD[0], it looks like it is installing "atomic-lockfile" and "figures". I think 99% of people reading the PKGBUILD would assume those are legit dependencies needed by the program.

As much as I hate to say it, the Qubes OS people were right. The solution is aggressively isolating apps into virtual machines. Anyone know how much my battery life is going to suffer if I bite the bullet and switch?

I've seen claims that the wifi 6E spec mandated that 6ghz networks required WPA3, so you would need to have a separate WPA2 ssid for legacy devices which therefore couldn't include 6ghz. A lot of access points now support a single

Wouldn't excluding apartments therefore exclude Ken Griffin's 238 million dollar penthouse? That seems like exactly the kind of 2nd home that this should be targeting.

The issue isn't that people are trying to change people's minds. There are two issues here: First, the rich have unimaginably more power in changing people's minds. This isn't sitting down at a bar and having a chat with

Because as soon as you sign that longer lease, the landlord will only ever do the absolute minimum repairs because you're stuck in that lease. We have been reporting our leaking roof for years...

Wow, if that's actually the intent then that's _deeply_ disrespectful to the tens of thousands of original Americans who died in our revolutionary war.
