There is apulse this which I used successfully in the past, it’s included in the portage tree. Since I happen to like systemd itself, I don’t have much of an issue with that. I used to avoid pulseaudio and networkmanager, but on my latest i

What do you disagree with? Apparently, what you list here is not yet true for Germany's law.

For a lot of filesystems, growing is indeed trivial and even shrinking is explicitly supported. Why would this be less tested than any other feature?

The overtones of two notes a perfect fifth apart do not line up, as already the perfect fifth itself is not an overtone of the base tone. This is indeed the case for the octave+fifth, but there you've got already clearly a second order

People are always complaining about Electron for shipping along with every single application, but actually, modern Linux desktop is not that far away from this just by itself. On a relatively standard desktop installation I currently have

CFFI has the huge advantage that you don't need to link against libpython, which in turn allows you to have a single wheel for multiple Python versions.

As I said somewhere else, wind energy output is much higher (on average) in winter. Also, no one in their right mind will currently switch to electric heating in Germany, why would they? There is natural gas (for now), maybe later on biogas

Volatility in the energy sector means how "forecastable" the source is. Solar at night is perfectly forecastable.
219.
by filmor 8y ago
Solar is not very volatile, it's basically a cos^2 around mid-day + local cloud cover changes. The biggest issue is actually a bad forecast for the peak output (essentially the "mist" forecast), as the differences spread over

Wind output is highest in Winter.

> Elixir have better syntax because it's familiar. Which syntax is "better" depends on how you measure. I'm a big fan of Erlang's "minimalistic" syntax. It means I might have to write a bit more code, b

Still needs Python itself.

Here it works fine, what do you mean?

The scheme used in UTF8 can encode up to 42 bits with a single start byte, the last start byte being 0xFF followed by 7 bytes of the form 10xxxxxx.

Well, the source may be static, but it may be distributed. Think of a big symphonic orchestra.

1. Erlang has parse transforms, so it's not like Erlang has /nothing/ in this regard. They are painful to write, though, although that could probably be fixed by introducing a parse transform (apparently someone else thought

Carbon 12 is being used because that accounts for the nuclear forces which are absent for H-1.

I think this is only about cases where you expose MongoDB directly, not if you use it in the backend.

DBus was a joint effort to build a common messaging system to be used in all desktop environments, in particular to get away from the individual incompatible brokers that Gnome and KDE used at the time. Lennart Poettering had nothing to do

And how would the client distinguish the part that goes to DNS from the HTTP path?

Let's try again: - If you, as the licensee, sue Facebook on /any/ of their patents (not just on the ones that are subject to the patent grant), the license terminates immediately. - On the other hand, if Facebook, as the lice

Facebook got hate for making the patent grant skewed, i.e. you have no right to sue them for /any/ patent of yours that they use in return for not being sued for the /specific/ patents that cover React etc.

This is the corresponding github issue, open since 2012: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/74 :) At some point during the beta of the Steam client for Linux, there was a bug in that you

It luckily has nothing to do with Cedegas approach :)

The "morphism" property is completely unneeded for idempotence and the "endo" part is implied :)

You can't just redefine "theft" as "deprive of potential earnings/subsidies", watering down definitions is helping no one. I agree that the depriving is what is happening here by copying but this is what shouls

by filmor 8y ago
Well, it is not theft. Theft means that what you are stealing is not there anymore afterwards. Like actually stealing (unique) plans. Not saying that copying is actually okay, but using more sensational terminology is not really helping. Sa

You could just assign a token an id on its first use and keep that around, even if the name changes. Merges would then be trivial.

iinet has a few domains they explicitly do not meter and list in the stats, including a mirror for open source software. Was very useful while I was down under to keep my Gentoo system nicely updated without killing the quota of our shared

If you check the history and talk of that page you will see that there is one very persistent user who has repeatedly re-added this section while at least to others tried to remove it.
