In a lot of countries there is no bill, it's all paid for by taxes. Which is why seatbelt mandates make sense, they reduce the cost for everyone.

Yea, that makes sense. I think you can conceivably define a megaregion to include places like the PNW corridor, the bay area, research triangle, etc. I'm just a bit baffled how Spokane and the region between makes the cut. Seems lik

Seems like a pretty vacuous article if “megaregions” are so poorly defined. Anyone who has ever driven between Spokane and Portland or Seattle knows it could hardly be considered “mega”.

They chose the worst solution to a problem that had multiple better solutions because of a pre-existing patch was the easiest path forward. That’s exactly what I’m talking about.

systemd is just fine on Arch without this patch. It's not a systemd issue, it's a larger cultural issue with packagers increasing attack surface to make their lives easier.

Probably not more popular because (for reasons I do not know) the mkinitcpio hooks Arch Linux provides are only for tinyssh and dropbear: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/dm-crypt/Specialties#Remote...

I think the larger issue is that openzfs doesn't move in sync with the kernel so you have to check https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openzfs/zfs/master/META to make sure you can actually upgrade each tim

As someone who uses a rolling release, I use btrfs because I don't want to deal with keeping ZFS up to date. It's been really good for me. And btrbk is the best backup solution I've had on Linux, btrfs send/receive is a

Yea, there needs to be a `snapshot -r` option or something. I like using subvolumes to manage what gets a snapshot but sometimes you want the full disk.

Just throwing this out there, but has anyone else seen 'formations' of satellites? I've only seen them once but there were about 5 to 10 (it was a while ago) of what I'm assuming are satellites moving in a line formatio

I have had Sapphire cards for the last 10+ years and have always liked them enough to go back. Maybe I've been lucky, but my cards have been cool and quiet.

Social media has a way higher impact on human well being than aviation safety; maybe we should record all idle chatter and boardroom meetings of people working at these companies to ascertain liability when we finally realize they're

>Concepts do not pre-exist concepts. I think this is a very bold claim to make. Each new idea/technology/concept stands on the back of all that came before it. You couldn't just pull a LLM or a dishwasher out of a hat 100

I'm a recent fish convert (from zsh) and I love it. The only thing that annoys me is working with Android AOSP requires sourcing a bunch of bash functions that I don't feel like porting to fish so I'm occasionally required to

Blockchain also only works the way people intend in entirely digital domains. As soon as you tie it to real-world assets it's no different than an Excel sheet because you must validate everything manually anyways.

A town square is usually a public project, maintained by the city on behalf of taxpayers. This is more like a big private club.

So you think SBF should just walk away? And the same for the next exchange that blows up everyone's money? Say goodbye to crypto as you know it then. Crypto without on/off ramps to USD is just a cool hobbyist project for libert

I this is exactly it. When you let utilitarianism run your life, you try and maximize your ability to do good, even if you have to bend a few rules on the way. But outcomes aren't certain and high EV plays can still carry a substantia

Do we really need to promote conspiracy theories? We know what happened. Smart rich kid uses his connections to get loaned $50M and gets wildly rich from arbitrage. I'm not sure why more and more people decided he was worth trusting

There is a secret Twitter hack for chonological view: put all the profiles you want to follow into a list and view through the list. The feed will be reverse chronological, not algorithmically sorted.

Right now at least blue check marks mostly correlate to people with public personas that someone other than their own family might care about. Hard to see how diluting that even further will be a good idea.
