I said it's more harmless than other medication dependencies, like getting hooked on pain medication or benzos. Even here in tightly regulated Germany, Xylometazoline can be bought without a prescription. It is very effective and, comp

Oxymetazoline is different from Xylometazoline, although it was derived from it. Xylometazoline is pretty harmless for adults when not used over extended periods (it is advised to not use it longer than 6 days, but that will cover your typi

So at least here in Germany, we pretty much all use nasal spray with xylometazoline, and it's very effective as it also binds to adrenergic receptors. It does not seem to be available in the US, and at least from a cursory search I can

That might very well be, but what are you gonna do? Forbid using Microsoft cloud services completely? As we say in Germany: that train has already left the station...

Yes, I agree it's probably the right choice for them. Companies using the GitLab CE would probably never buy Mergify anyway, not only because they don't want to spend money, but also: if they can live with the bare-bones GitLab CE

I sometimes feel like I'm crazy when I read the comments here. I absolutely cannot listen to these things. They sound like mixture of satire and late-night TV home shopping to me, all this campy hyperbole, the hyping up of even the mos

Good article about the downsides of infrared heating. These things can be useful. They are very light, safe and easy to install, and they can really make a difference in tight spaces like a caravan. However, with 425W, of course you cannot

Given the open issues at https://github.com/FuriLabs/issue-tracker/issues I think it's fair to say that whoever buys this is in for a bumpy ride. I mean, that is to be expected, however, I think they should b

Yes, certain problems are very typical for Unreal and can be seen in many games using it, especially stutters from on-demand shader compilation and "traversal stutter" when entering new areas (so mostly problems with on-demand tex

You would think that, but multicore programming is really hard. Balancing all the tasks of your game across available cores is not easy, and given the intense crunch with which games are developed, there's often no time to do this prop

So I suppose you never gave in and you still vehemently write "bureau" instead of "Büro"? It's just spelling. Also, please check your old Duden, Regel 16b, you will be surprised.

But this is not even about language, it's about spelling. For some reason, people forget that these are entirely different things. We are currently communicating in a language where there's often times no relation between the writ

It's not, unless you are able to hear a difference between "Tea's Buchladen" and "Teas Buchladen".

Here, too? As the articles notes, this kind of apostrophe has been "correct" for many, many years, at least for names, and no, not just for avoiding confusion with names ending in 's'. The "Duden" (one of the o

These are not movies, these are clips. The stock photo/clip industry is surely worried about this, and probably will sue because 100% these models were trained on their work. If this technology ever makes movies, it'll be exactly

Well, "loved" is not the word I would use. It's an improvement over the chaos before, where everyone used some other bespoke tool to build their BSPs. Yocto at least is some kind of standard now, but not a particularly good o

D-Bus is 17 years old by now, introducing a replacement is hardly "living churn", especially since D-Bus will still be supported, probably for years.

I would disagree it's trying to be a "quality" podcast. As usual with AI, it's an average over averages, incredibly mediocre, sometimes borderline satire. For instance, in this example podcast they say "and trust me

This comes very very late, but man, it's still great. The restriction that you couldn't play a game from your own library as long as it was shared was a ridiculous restriction, especially since it could easily be circumvented by g

Wow, the console is effectively 25% more expensive in Europe? That's crazy. Yes, I'm aware of taxes, extended warranty and other requirements in the EU, but still. Usually, you had a simple 1:1 mapping $->EUR, which effectively

Because if you write a kernel from scratch, things like the scheduler or the networking stack will be much, much less performant than the one from the Linux kernel. As I've written: you'll never catch up with the years and years o

Hey Google, here's a suggestion: how about you make it possible to restrict a kids' account to only be able to view certain channels, disabling "the algorithm" altogether? I'd even be willing to pay for that. Of cou

Exactly the same thing for me. While it is clearly not good to suddenly receive a ton of spam, I rather have a ton of false negatives than false positives, so in this case, no real harm was done.

Writing a Linux-ABI-compatible kernel in Rust will lead to a kernel no one uses. What would be the advantage of such a kernel? It would be much, much slower for many workloads and only be interesting to Rust hackers. In "Linux the OS&q
