There's a huge density difference if you aren't close to a planet or star. Solar sails are probably more practical.

As always when this is posted: this is quite overstated. If you're only using .xz on something already protected by a sha2sum or something, and you trust the source, almost all of this is immediately invalidated (and the rest is "

Empirically, no it doesn't, at least not for the quantities of smoke we get in wildfire season. It's probably enough for most "abandoned industry on fire again" fires, if that's all you get?

Empirically, the ionizer is good for wildfire season, but the rest of the year HEPA is good.

Same. One thing that annoys me is that a lot of F-Droid apps are obviously naive ports with overbroad permissions like "can read the entirety of storage", but that's still better than the all-consuming Goo.

Only monetized apps (whether that be directly paid, microtransactions, ads, etc.) are legally required to go through that process - and it's a perfectly sensible requirement for the government to say "if you want to run a busine

The nastiest removal I'm aware of is `crypt`, and even in that case it's just a matter of adding the appropriate `LD_PRELOAD` if you can't relink.

You're describing 2 completely different things there. If your program is built to require myfavoritelibrary version 1.9, and you try to run it against myfavoritelibrary 1.0, no shit it doesn't work. Glibc is no different than any

But there is absolutely something to suggest "if you only support one region for some tasks, you're going to have problems that other people don't have."

You don't need JS to do long-polling, just keep the main page's connection open without writing the trailing `</html>` This does limit what you can do with the poll-added content, but simply allowing the refresh to ta

With any decent backend implementation, idle connections should be really cheap - measured in individual pages, and the hard part is figuring out how to count the kernel side.

Adding 1 CSS rule gets rid of the slowness: background-color: black !important; I'm not sure which specific one is to blame, but there is a lot of transparency in various colors, both foreground and background.

Hmm, scrolling lags even without javascript (Firefox ESR, Linux). Last time I saw this I think they fix was something about gradients/blur? There's also some kind of weird input-capture stopping keyboard scrolling at first, and th

The "refresh causes load" issue can be solved by doing long-polling instead of short-polling. Note that the http-equiv refresh will only trigger after the page is fully-loaded, which long-polling does not allows to happen, so yo

In my experience, all thesauri suck, either having far too few quasi-synonyms (and thesauri that divide them into closeness tiers aren't very useful in practice), or having far too many quasi-synonyms without distinguishing senses or

The whole point of this is that what counts as "legal" is permitted to change. In particular, "legal under some circumstances" is a thing.

It's a huge stretch to call the existence of 4chan in anyone's best interests. First they came for 4chan and I said nothing, because good riddance! This is not a slippery slope; this is a spring trying to return to the center. T

The difference, of course, is that most AI companies don't have the malicious motive that Google has by also being an ad company.

Note that while cubic bezier curves are nice for designing shapes, quadratic bezier curves allow a much more optimized renderer. It's usually worth approximating.

Counterpoint: most websites are not useful. If we only count useful websites a much higher percentage of them are using XSLT. But useful websites are much less likely to be infested by the all consuming Goo admalware.
