Wow. So it's free if he shut down the site last week? Crazy how good your solution is. No, bandwidth is far from free.

I'd love to identify helicopters. I do get planes now, but was it specifically military helicopters? I like getting to identify basic things like cars, airplanes and trains with hCaptcha. It's like a picture book for adults, and f

It's true for nuclear reactor buildings where the walls block more background radiation as well. I'd you are worried, avoid plane flights. Handy simplified chart: https://xkcd.com/radiation/

The Swedish title he earned, Förvillare, isn't technically fraudster but more "confuser" (of others, leading them astray) of the year

Oh I connect to a VMS-system for work daily until new year (then we're getting replaced and I'm off to find something more modern, I guess)! VMS is a delight. So much more pleasant for the user than the IBM-boxes, but I do have ve

It's all about pretty short term returns of course. You can build a web interface separately (external contract ofc) and that will work in parallell, but aside from very basic services there are tons of edge cases, bad documentation, b

Then you would love the systems I refer to! You'll have plenty of fun with 500-900ms delay added by a crappy Java front-end and even if it's on the shorter end consistently you'll love the odd 900ms bump for the screen scrape

The same reason the software is ass at the car mechanic when they want to order parts: Legacy systems running on old VAXes, with UX upgrades consisting of screen scraping and fields you have to tab between. And if you miss one: You gotta ta

It's using more than ripcord, the discord client, even when using voice chat. Compare that to the official app that makes you have to worry about ram prices and actually takes a good chunk of a modern common pcs memory.

The news articles stating this number are refering to data for the week ending the 11th. I can't get that data through the link, only the week ending the 4th of December with a low estimate. iOS, Sweden. Anyone else having that issue?

It was self reported testing before a Christmas party. Few people have done any test like that in Scandinavia and willingness to lie about taking it is pretty high in my experience.

I've never seen a pay increase above ~2% here in Sweden. Some union agreements allow larger (and lower) changes if the average increase is still the decided upon percentage.

And for the save/load functionality? I'll check the free version out but that seems like a big hurdle of the free version

Non throttled ones often have a few different assist settings that work for hills. A throttled one with no pedaling is just a moped. Those aren't allowed in bike lanes in most places.

So far in the comments only worries about latency. I had the same worries when my father told me about Jamulous and that his band started using it during the pandemic. They are a cajun band and mostly jam and they were singing the softwares

This is a perfect experiment to do in class, letting them sit in the classroom to be revisited at the beginning or end of classes (maybe weekly?). It doesn't sound as suitable for a take home project

Did you compare deaths on movie sets to deaths during medical trials recently? It's the exact opposite situation from what you describe, which is why it has been newsworthy. But I don't understand how your takeaway became the oppo

30 is pretty easy to do, 35 is significantly harder and 40 is insanely much harder. People saying regular bicyclists do 40-45 kph seldom have much experience on bikes. And someone going that in city traffic, like a lot of ebikes do, is just

"Keeping it up to date" means updating with common issues that pop up on discord. Those who only need support are helped and not victims to discords search and discussion -issues.

I think just putting g some effort I to keeping a FAQ on the repo up to date with things people run into and post on discord is a great solution.

We did the same thing. Just testing that everything actually worked as expected was a pretty big task.

You bring that up as a bad in this context, where enironmental impact because of poor ways of generating electricity is not relevant. AC has had an extremely positive impact. Simple uses energy == bad reasoning hasn't.

It isn't neutral. These two statements are not equivalent. The CDC says x should be done -> not doing so is contrary to CDC recommendations. The CDC says you don't have to do x anymore -> still doing x is not contrary to CDC

Yes, you get users who have linux as their 'daily driver', as opposed to those to dabble in it a bit on the side :)

I don't know of any household appliances that as part of their regular functioning doses you with alcohol. Or many household appliances that can reliably kill of your pets at all. So I don't really get this nitpick.

Some ovens are teflon coated, and some of those have cleaning modes that effectively kill of pet birds. I don't get how that can even be allowed ad a regular household appliance.
