No, that's not the common sense you are missing ;-) Your system your rules. But you twiddled a knob to appease your tweak imp, you didn't like the new behaviour, so you called it "fucking stupid". My experience is that t

Information is sparse about Singularity, which i understand is the same as Midori. Can you find that interview again? I know about OpenGenera; what left-field OSes might i have missed?

I think you are directionally correct, but too strong. South Korea ran a protectionist command economy for decades with great success. Clearly it can work. China is now a superpower. Clearly it can work.

I think "centralisation" is accurate but imprecise. Specifically, the professional class of financiers managed to capture government under Reagan, meaning that, in practical terms, we are largely governed by Jamie Dimon and his co

a) survivorship bias, and b) long-termism. Many nations have tried to plan their economy. Most perform badly and end up as footnotes in the history of the Democratic Republic of Tinpotonia. It takes a lot of skill to plan an economy. The st

People have different value systems, and some topics put those in opposition. That is why this debate is so immovable. No, i don't want kids exposed to snuff and porn and cognitohazards. But be fair: the middle ages was not an extincti

Trust is not binary; we can process data with a level of confidence. We do not need either Google or F-Droid to be sanctified before we evaluate their claims. The claim is that a repeat monopolist is doing monopolist things. Feel free to ma

That's how i was leaning, because i cynically assumed a maximally-fuckwitted decree. However. The world is as it is, not as we wish it was. My mother can't click "update and restart"; pathological technophobia. Should it

I travel to Spain regularly; I meet people in their homes and offices, in cities and villages. AC is commonplace. The Spanish blackout, singular, last year was a cascading control plane faillure - i.e. independent of resource allocation. Te

Are you aware that public spending is a transfer from the public sector to the private, and that poor people spend approximately 100% of their income? Would you argue that stock buy-backs are a better use of public money? At some point, pro

Energy prices globally spiked in 2022 when Russia invaded Ukraine (again). I conclude that energy is tied more closely to fossil than solar. Happy to stand with you and throw rocks at stupid solar policy, though.

Not sure how you calibrate your "niche" scale, but foundries and aluminium smelting plants have commonly been sited near generators in Britain. I suppose that transmission losses matter at the GW scale; and also that a national gr

I also see that incoherence. To be charitable, I conjecture the author meant this: Iran is militarily weakened by the pummeling of its air defences, but it is geopolitically stronger because the sword of Damocles fell and turned it to be a

It is, inasmuch as we have 3 types of cone, which is an inherent orthogonality. It is also not, inasmuch as each cone is a wavelength in the same spectrum. Either way, you can project a volume onto a plane, which is great for communicating

Interesting - but I just run it in docker. I also run opnsense, which is a FreeBSD, and I find it very high friction.
