The processed meat alternatives don't really taste close enough. On the contrary, many prefer actual grilled mushrooms or vegetables in their burgers. Personally, I think fried crickets taste much better than Impossible Burger and the

Meanwhile, people are clinging to decade-old Thinkpads like they were made of gold. Most laptops and pretty much all desktops are x86-64, as are both major home consoles. Sure, ARM is dominant on mobile, and it's definitely going to gr

I haven't been in Sweden for a while, but in Finland there's large headlines about a major shortage of tech workers, but based on what I've seen it's basically tech workers changing careers because they are: 1) fed up wi

I'd be surprised if that turned out to be true, but I truly hope that I'm wrong and you're right. :D

Just to add to that: NH is on it's way out of the system now, after 15 years, and it should have another 15-20 years left in it's RTG. Meanwhile, there are actual interstellar probes being planned, in addition to several missions

I can imagine there's more than one ISP who'd have something to say about open wifi networks.

Right, so if another species does what we do, then we'd be lucky if we were inside the 200 ly radius of them at a time where they sent enough signals for us to notice?

How far away would one have to be before human radio signals would simply blend in with the background noise?

I've struggled, and am struggling, with the same thing. The only thing that helps me is to keep doing... something. Also, talk to your wife about changing lifestyles if you haven't already. She might surprise you.

Haven't tried making a burger with them. I'll add it to the todo list for this summer. :D

Had no idea about cancerous effects, but the taste is amazing. As someone who eats meats regularily, my favourite vegan burger is with a grilled portabello in it - it beats all the over-processed stuff they sell nowadays.

Well, apart from the adult-only part, it sounds like the EU.

Droughts are horrifying. Animals will simply do what they need to in order to stay alive. The scary part is that droughts are getting more common.

You have a valid point; killing an animal in order to eat it is not immoral, assuming you don't let anything go to waste. Factory farming, on the other hand, has nothing to do with how nature works. It's all about who raises the a

Why morbid? Even cute and fluffy little critters like rabbits will happily go specifically after flowers with bugs in them if given the chance. The circle of life is far more complicated than herbivores/carnivores and many animals will

I didn't consider multi-screen setups for such old things as net books. But yes, Fluxbox is also very nice for older systems.

+1 for IceWM. It's ridiculously fast and lightweight while retaining a bare minimum of what it needs to be usable. I rarely touch computers as old as the one in the original blog post, but a simple Debian/IceWM setup will fly on t

Yeah, it's not a bug but a feature.

I'm in a similar situation with the local road council who are trying to move a road onto our land so that people can keep higher speeds in a specific corner. It's a very good idea to have documentarion for where the markers are o

The Missus refuse to wear one. We both have (relatively) massive silver wedding bands.

You're right. We should reduce consumption, the global population, and do quite a few radical changes to our culture _IF_ the end goal is to minimize ecological damage. Thing is, most people are less concerned with the environment and

Yes, 'www.burrito.consulting' looks akward, but most people born after 1960 will recognize it as the URL for a web site. People outside tech generally don't realise that domain.tld and www.domain.tld are two separate hostname

Absolutely! There's nothing wrong with Protonmail's offering, it's just that the other players' dominance will keep that offering from becoming mainstream. If Gmail started supporting GPG then pretty much everyone would

Doesn't matter in the larger scheme of things, unless Hotmail and Gmail implement it too. Also: easy migration paths that includes secure key transfers. Average Joe simply isn't technical or motivated enough to do it on their own.

Many people seem to beleive the justice system behaves like a set of if...then clauses. I blame the mass production of crappy US courtroom drama - people start thinking it's how the real world works.

Automatic transmission is also seen as more boring, and while professional drivers can get away with using them many people consider you a lesser driver if you don't drive manual. For the record, I just had a look at the local second-h

This. And I suspect the United States are amongst the easier places to leave, along with the European Union. In both cases, the populace are free to roam and settle within the borders, but moving outside the borders is a whole different mat
