This might be a dumb question but Tonne is a mass measurement... How can 1 tonne store 73 tonnes of CO2? The source of that fact is here [0], but that is counting the forest that makes the cork. However they aren't growing a new forest

Can't tell if you are joking or not. Ocean temperatures are already on the rise and causing havoc.

Plants do indeed have day night cycles, so they do need rest. Just Google plant day night cycle.

The problems here come from the fact that a "merge" commit is just a normal commit with multiple parents. This means that anything can happen inside that merge commit, including add, remove, and modify all the code, even if not to

Tailscale is a VPN... And it requires a control server with auth. Simply cutting off access to the control server would disable clients from connecting. While there is headscale, configuring the tailscale clients is tricky and would not sca

Parker and Stone were just making fun of it and did not coin the term Brown Note. The term is from the 1970s military research. As with many South Park episodes, the topic they are making fun of is usually based on exaggerated facts. It&#x2

I mostly agree with you. I too like to actually own my hardware. However, another angle to view it is that these are huge security vulnerabilities. Visiting a webpage on your TV to install a custom firmware could also be used for great evil

A physical SIM card is a smartcard, and in many ways is exactly like a yubikey. A yubikey even presents as a USB smartcard. The attacks on SIM cards are not on the SIM itself, but by the carrier binding your identity to a different card. A

A printing press still takes resources and times. I don't imagine many people had easy access to a printing press. And even then, it wasn't a scanner. Printing a single book meant making templates for each page. Sure you could pri

This is actually more confusing then windows. The visual UI element to close does not close. Instead you must click File->Quit or CMD+q. These are not intuitive and must be learned.

In older cars things like blinking lights was done with a dedicated circuit. By putting everything in software, we've actually made this class of bug appear more often.

Since Magnus is a chess grandmaster, are you saying that he applied his skills in real life? Apparently, even if this person was or was not cheating, refusing a rematch and calling him a cheater was the best possible move.

In my teens I cheated in counter strike, maybe a total of 20 games. As an adult, I still play FPS games but have no interest in cheating. Also cheating in online chess is a very low barrier if entry. Anyone can do it. When I did cheat in co

I don't play chess, and this story doesn't particularly interest me, but since it keeps coming up and I've now read several articles on it... It seems to me that the entire chess community is absolutely ruining this guy'

Your idea is comes from a good place, but identity theft is already a thing in the real world. Digital identities would also be very stealable. This malware more harmful in the long term. Imagine if your Twitter gets hacked and your digital

"Lies we tell children." While the _force_ may not exist, it describes an effect that happens when something spins. I still used the wrong term though. I was actually referring to gyroscopic motion.

I don't think wedges are a problem anymore. The last 5 seasons have had almost no wedges. The article says they solved the problem by requiring a real active weapon. But an uneven floor would likely cause mayhem for the massive amount

I used the SCAN app exactly once about a year ago and loved it. However it only worked that one time. Every other time it could not connect. It was truely great, it put so much trust in you. Self-checkout stations don't let you remove

I think it is more crazy that that are so openly breaking the law. The same is true with all the loto and gambling crypto sites. They run without any oversight and are blatantly breaking the law.

I'm trying to parse what you are saying here. You removed the CDN and the site got slower? How do you know your site was the one that was fast or just the CDN? IE, the CDN should have added a lot of extra hops and made things slower. T

Using DHCP to send a DNS search path can make this work across a lan, which is how it works in most work environments. If you set your dns search path to example.com then http://go would resolve to go.example.com which could be

Android is Linux, not Unix. Linux shares no code with Unixs. Solaris, BSD, Darwin all share code. Linux is POSIX compatible and userspace is similar, but the kernel is distinct.

I'm a big fan of IPFS, but the "clever chunking" hasn't been very smart in my experience. Peer maps seems to store the entire dataset in a single 107 GB file [1] It's unclear to me that that eyros produces a file th
