That doesn't have much to do with safety, more with half-life. Methamphetamine has a longer half-life (averages about 15 hours) than cocaine (about 5 minutes to an hour depending on route of administration). With long term regular use

Most of those parties don't get a platform, which is a lot of the reason they don't get votes. The Republicans and Democrats control the debates, how to register as a candidate, etc and the media has failed by perpetuating the &qu

Im not sure it's possible to legislate that (iirc it's in article 1 of the constitution, ex postfacto I think it's called). The executive branch could do it because that has near unlimited power to pardon. I'm not sure a

Yeah, exactly. Ending the war on drugs doesn't change that the US has fucked millions of people, prevented them from getting employed, then blamed them for most of this. Drug testing prior to/during employment doesn't help th

Yeah driver support is lacking. We have support for some Intel NICs and some Intel wifi. Basically we only have drivers for stuff we use. If you have the time it would be great if you could write a driver for your hardware. :) On the javasc

Scott Manley recently did a great video on this. You just need more gimballing (basically). If I wasn't on my phone I would post a link.

Risk might not be great enough. They're balancing convenience and safety. IIRC the hoverboards had a higher risk because of how many cheap ones burst into flames and people didn't want to use them in flight so it wouldn't bot

That's what's sucks about data: it's pretty ephemeral. I have some code I wrote when I was little but only the good stuff. I wish I had the crap code and the code I wrote when I was learning so I could see what 12 and 13 year

I'm not entirely convinced that it's the threat of punishment that stops criminals. Going on the criminals I know (crap evidence, I know), excluding the total psychopaths, what has stopped them is guilt for hurting people and&#x2F

I think he's getting at the fact that if they're in a cage they can't commit crimes while in there (sorta). Recidivism rates would suggest that prison doesn't actually do much to prevent future crime unless they're

It still is really wonderful! I use mine almost every day for little calculations I need to do. IMO a physical calculator beats using your computer as one in many cases.

Also pulseaudio allows them to sorta support OSS and whatever else pulseaudio will output to for free.

If it works on FreeBSD it will probably work on Dfly. They're still pretty close in terms of userland, and I don't know this for certain but they probably take many FreeBSD changes and vice-versa.

Yeah the Japanese version of hànzì is much more ancient (Song or Tang dynasties, I think) and have changed comparatively little since then. Also, they simplified some characters in a very different way than how the Chinese did. (I'm pr

I agree completely about MD and don't see why choose that troff other than that it's the new hotness. Troff can be dumb and simple like MD which is fantastic for the writing bit, but has the ability to do rather complicated format

Well things like the U-2 still exist because they can fly stupid far for a stupid long time at stupid high altitudes and can respond quickly, securely, and quietly to intelligence needs. It's hard to fly a UAV deep into enemy territory

But then you would have to ship and support a go compiler with base, which is a similar problem but easier to overcome.

Hyper-v kinda sucked with FreeBSD, mostly just overall poor performance. If you needed FreeBSD that would dictate what you ran it on, so hyper-v would be out. If you had to run hyper-v, FreeBSD would be out. Many enterprises find Window

How is BSD init not useful? All it's supposed to do it start and maybe stop services, and it does that quite well. BSD init is pretty small and clean. I would argue systemd is much less so because of the large scope of the project. The

What that dbus doesn't depend on systemd? It's good that it doesn't because people that don't run Linux want to use it.

Really it all comes down to reading and practice. Instead of writing your personal duct tape code in ruby why not try it in C? Sure it will be harder at first but it will make you a better programmer all around. Also reading OS code (like p

I've never used it in production, but I switched to it in the FreeBSD 6 era until FreeBSD 8 came out. I switched to it because FreeBSD 5 was a dog and couldn't stand it. I used it more recently on my x220 because they supported my

Except for failures not caused by poor maintenance or poor/reckless driving. Like if your rear diff falls out because the bolts weren't done up at the factory, etc.
