Some part of it - sure, but (perhaps with the exception of MTG if we stretch it) none of the things listed were even close to being defining or exclusive to that culture. They were a part of everyone's culture in certain demographics.

Perhaps asking them to tag the releases is all that's needed then.

You need enough sky visibility to discern signal from a single satellite from the background noise without having accurate time and recent enough almanac already.

What I meant was that it will take seconds to get an accurate time from the sky (as accurate as it gets without specialistic techniques or equipment to consume it, and better than NTP already).

The most interesting property of Anubis is how much content like this that's comically missing the point it inspires.

There's nothing scary about conflicts on cherry-picked commits. It's just sometimes tedious to resolve them one-by-one, and sometimes may just not be worth the effort if it can be done in a better way.

Setting: merge.conflictStyle = zdiff3 made most of my fears regarding conflict resolution go away, as it right away gives me the stuff that I used to look for manually to understand the context of the conflict, which was probably t

The device only signals that it's a power sink with its 5.1k resistors, there's only one way to put them there without implementing the full-blown PD protocol. It can't signal power levels (USB legacy / 7.5W / 15W)

It preceded its release with the iPod craze, making it a lifestyle product rather than something marketed for its capabilities (which were very humble compared to other contemporary devices and only started to catch up in second gen).

N9's Harmattan still used a regular X11 environment on a Debian-based system, just like N900's Fremantle (though it was supposed to be a stop-gap as MeeGo proper wasn't Debian-based anymore). However, aside of Aegis being a P

Hah, I had expected this knee-jerk response, but kinda hoped you'd avoid this pitfall. Alas. See, I could tell you that in English, "second to" is a construct that usually means "next to" or "inferior to"

You're both logically and grammatically wrong. You could even ask an LLM to explain the meaning of the phrase to you if you don't believe that.

Opus - perhaps, but claiming that 128kbps Vorbis is transparent would be rather stretching it (unless it's a mono stream); though how easily it will be detectable depends on the kind of music used to test it. However, if you added, say

Of course. The "content" is how humans communicate with each other, it doesn't just exist for its own sake (except in some degenerate cases). If you know that a human has authored it, you can infer their intent and thought-pr

What you're saying doesn't make any sense. Gamescope is essentially a XWayland-only compositor (with some basic xdg-shell support that's disabled by default). All games on SteamOS go through XWayland. It doesn't yet mean
