I live in an Indian and I avoid going out most of time and a big reason for that is the noise. Aa the article says about Dhaka, traffic is a major source of noise and it is unavoidable due to the absence of decent public transport infrastru

You have to then go through the trouble of redoing persistent logins, transferring bookmarks, history, plugins, etc. That's a nontrivial amount of effort right there.

Is there a name for this line of argumentation? The guy is obsessing over how document is articulated and disregarding how Chrome's dominance and Google owning it empowers Google to be monopolistic by, for example, having disproportion

The problem with Firefox forks I have: - you don't know when they are gonna keel over and die. - non-existent support from distro package repositories. Void Linux for example has an understandable policy of not providing Firefox and Ch

My conception of world conquering ambition comes mostly from popular media so trying to imagine Zuckerberg trying to become the world's stenographer through a platform that is 90% boomer-bait AI slop is a bit disorienting.

I don't know how World Hunger Index get their DPRK figures but that is not important. There are about 110 countries with better hunger indices than India. A country that tells its citizens that we are going to be a superpower by 20xx s

Your first link says that it measures calories available and not calories consumed. It links to an undernourishment metric instead the world average for it has remained about the same for about a decade. I am not expert and I am probably ch

That's correct but my point is what kind of poverty is the poverty line measuring if it does not take into account how much people are getting to eat. This access to PPP adjusted dollar amount is clearly not a good heuristic for it bec

I don't understand the significant of metrics like the international poverty line. Seems like the only point of its existence is to create a sense of progress or maybe exaggerate it. They never account for basic stuff like how many cal

This reminds me of how someone at Riot helped with patched wine versions to run League of Legends because they themselves used Linux. Not sure how good the support is these days with the new anticheat and all.

I didn't bring this up because it would be controversial on this website. I think USAID is a tool for advancing US geopolitical interests aims first and foremost and I would like it to be abolished as well. But someone like Musk wantin

I didn't mean it too seriously. Just with regard to how one point in the ideology is about governments being small and how DOGE is at least in rhetoric trying to fire federal employees en masse.

What's Elon's beef with USAID? I would think he would go after something like food stamps first owing to his libertarian ethos. Maybe he sees USAID as a completely benevolent handout and a waste of money? I cannot begin to underst

I use Koreader on my Kobo ereader for a few reasons: - Much much faster than stock interface - More customisable - Comes with an ssh server. I load a static rsync binary and use rsync for syncing the library - Much better for reading manga.

How does Congress ceding power work? Is there a due process for this? Or do they just sit back and chill?
