I was like...mkay the wind was one time plot device. Bigger issue is that he seemed to grow potatoes inside with no mention of lighting at all? That was major omission for me, grow lights require plenty of energy and thus waste heat.

The crucial link "International Energy Agency (IEA)" is dead, probably it's this: https://www.iea.org/reports/the-role-of-critical-minerals-in... I did not dig deeper but I suspect it's again compar

By the way in Tycoon there was a bug (extra multiplication) that caused larger towns to generate insane number of passengers. It was copied all the way to OpenTTD then it was turned into option.

That's irrelevant. Someone leaving broken cars in the park or even only a few parts will certainly be considered a violation by a majority. To your objections they might say - it's littering anyway and we don't want that do w

Or not, because it simplifies code, no differences between platforms. And if syscall overhead once per each GB is really a problem you should probably try mmap or some other IO style.

Relying on third parties, whether TLS certification authorities, or using own Google / Microsoft / Github/… account is NOT an improvement. No serious independent research exists that these are improvement over TOFU. Only a wi

If it really was continuous so that physical quantities were real numbers as defined in mathematics, then it is in contradiction to maximal information density. Because almost all real numbers contain infinite amount of information. Full ar

ICE is kind of a dead end, you convert energy from chemical to thermal to mechanical and every conversion is lossy. You want to use chemical energy directly instead, like some kind of "hydrocarbon/air cell" and we don't

That's why science sorely needs phenomenology - careful observation of phenomena without prejudice and also without desire to analyse. It's this desire that paves the way to epistemic hell.

It also explains that having a key blank allows for attacks such as bumping. Also cuts can be easily reconstructed from photo of the keys.

You could self-host an email on your domain and use that everywhere instead... but then the same could happen with the domain registrar. Or when you plainly forget to renew :(

Sounds like adding yet another potentially exploitable service listening on every host? Swell! Seriously, I have yet to see a good tutorial how to herd IPv6 LAN with reliable local DNS, as is usual with IPv4. Everything is just handwaved aw

by rini17 3y ago
Solved you say? So how do I set up DNS for LAN hosts that under IPv4 would have static private addresses? Under IPv6, you run into problems long before DNS - trying to assign static addresses as DHCPv6 is an afterthought, also whole setup h

There are always side effects, some energy of the magnetic field will dissipate anyway in pieces of metal nearby like housings, screws, rebar in the walls etc.

Oh yes the data will homomorphically encoded into white noise, then computed stored and decoded, all near planck energy per bit :)

Using positive and negative voltages to represent balanced ternary requires both positive and negative power supply. They do mention that having additional Vcc is problematic. At least on our 2D chips, but we don't have any high densit

It's the rule of excluded middle misapplied to everyhing. When you think you have to decide an argument is either completely true or completely false, while in reality no argument is.
