Plasma 6 is nearly two years old, and is totally fine in my experience. The transition was more like 5.x to 5.y. The biggest change is Wayland by default (X11 is currently still available, so might be worth a try). It sounds like your pro

When you reply, any sensible system will use the address you received it at. Fastmail does this, as do many others (I used Thunderbird for many years, possibly with an extension to do that). To send an email from scratch you just type the

Yes, that's why I said 100 light years rather than 4.3. Maybe it's still too low, but I think there are targets within the Milky Way that would require solving pretty much all the problems of getting to Andromeda.

Use a catch-all inbox. Fastmail supports them well in its web interface. I use unique addresses for every organisation.

If you can get to a star 100 light years away, you can get to Andromeda. It doesn't require going faster, just waiting longer.

Whether it's made by microbes or industrial processes, the dye is still chemicals. Every physical object is chemicals. The microbes are made of chemicals and make chemicals.

I think "difference" is better, as "error" implies one side is correct and the other is an approximation. Specifically, you're plotting absolute difference z = |f(x, y)-g(x, y)| (or, worse, absolute error), not err

This is unsigned distance; it's |f(x)-g(x)|, not f(x)-g(x). The traditional line graphs are the graph implicitly defined by the equation.

Dial-up modems reached their full 56kbps potential in 1997, and going further required something completely different. It happened naturally to satisfy demand, and was done by many of the same companies and people; the change was technolog

"Page complete" never stops with either library for me. It just keeps counting milliseconds. Chrome on Windows, no change when I disabled uBlock Origin Lite.

MathJax lets you select text more often than KaTeX as far as I can tell (some KaTeX formulas act dead unless you start selecting outside them), not that either library give you anything especially useful if you try to copy and paste. MathJ
