   I presume that the manufacturing cost will come under fan and heatpipe components, as, iiuc, they skip the assembly step. The cost is in turning an application into a product. Most installed nvmes are not actively cooled, I presume..? I gue

   For a lot of applications, you can assume thickness, so width is usually the headline number. Floating shelves are typically going to be a nominal inch thick, likely planed to around 20mm, so you can tell an apprentice to go and get 2m of 1

   What an incredibly vapid and reductionist take. You don't like politics, ergo it is simple enough to discount.

   I was involved in the recovery of an Exchange environment after a fairly recent high-profile attack. The exploit was a zero-day, so <shrug>. Maybe the exploited endpoint could have been hardened somehow, maybe not. However, the team i

    I'll bite! Same as event sourcing - it's thread-safe. I find, when updating docs, that is easy to miss a paragraph and leave obsolete info. Then you have invalid state. If you merely post updates, then accurate state can always be

    I see this as neoliberal dogma. There may be some truth to it, but I assert that unfettered neoliberalism will turn a country into an unpleasant shithole within a generation or two; and if you're willing to entertain that idea for the

    My country has had national assets sold to the private sector by neoliberal ideologues: I feel viscerally that energy generation should be in the public sector. The truth is that their needs to be a balance. All political opinions are wrong

    I use pihole for blocking. (if all I wanted was caching and static entries, I could use my router.) Unbound also supports blocklists. On opnsense, you just select "Steven Black" from the Unbound drop-down and you've got the d

    The difficulty is in maintaining your ability to send in the teeth of third-party block lists, which I think Stallman would likely rail against, so I concede the point.

    Stallman performs the vital function of pinning the Overton Window to the left, which benefits those of us with more nuanced views. I'm not going to run my own mail server in 2023, etc.

    Is it bad in _every_ way, though? I do understand it would lose every time to an F-16 in a dogfight, but it would have vaporised that F-16 long before visual range. Afaics it has more operational capability than the previous generation of w

    Not really - drag is proportional to velocity squared. There's little penalty to driving a brick at 30. You can feel the wind resistance on a bicycle at 30km/h, mind. The penalty is not zero. But we're discussing body styling

    yes, and... IIUC, uBlock uses heuristics, which means that potentially-objectionable content is already on your system and executing. Whereas PrivacyBadger is blocking the requests to those domains.

    Thanks for posting. Been meaning to look into this for a while, this was the prod I needed. I see it works on Firefox on Android. I also recommend Pihole as the other part of a two-prong approach. It's better than uBlock in this dimens

    Thank you for being only the second rational argument I've seen in favour of Brexit. The other one was around the inefficiency (~= horse-trading ~= corruption) of divvying up project spending. There are counter-arguments but I see no n

    To me, it's glaringly obvious, and it gets me every time. I'm not particularity sensitive to frame rate. It also serves to prove the thesis of TFA, since they certainly don't look photorealistic. Despite that, I do think they
