Linux does not take 3 hours even on spinning rust. I'd say one hour at worst. On my computer with the compile happening on an NVMe, it takes about 15 minutes.

I have a feeling that was to indicate a bit of sarcasm, with the system being so slow, so the patient probably tried to make a bit of fun of their situation.

That is not a coma, the brain has remained functional and isn't shut down like in a coma. The patient has ALS not something that degrades brain functionality itself.

Voluntarily handing over lists didn't seem to change much. And I don't believe one part of the story aligning with Trotsky quite erases that this story much more closely aligns with the treatment of Orwell at the hands of british

Not really? 1984 was more written in reaction to the british intelligence appartus harassing him rather than Stalin, Orwell was quite a devout communist and that brought down the hammer of the british intelligence organisations on him, tryi

I do think the change was necessary because with every device being A++ at minimum, the rating system was largely worthless. Though since the label also includes power usage per year, that is a good guiding line for comparing across the rat

SIM Cards running Java run an extremely cut down version of Java that removes basically all features that go beyond what C can do with some sprinkles on top. The biggest issue with large Java applications is real and it usually relates to e

Rooms don't form a cohesive set of channels that one can join, rather the group together a bunch of channels. If I, for example, setup a #rules channel in a community room, then I cannot ensure that users are reading this channel, whic

Well, for my use cases it's required. If you run your own matrix home server feel free to ban it but for me that is an essential feature.

The Terrible UX is in part from the protocol, clients can't fix that (just look at the absolute mess that rooms are). And still no support for custom emoji or stickers. Oh, and joining large rooms can still take hours.

Russia is likely to outlaw cryptocurrencies for that reason (of course the rich will be able to do it with no punishment). But the small citizen will just get visited by putin's police and beaten within an inch of dying, before being t

The Luca App is a privately developed app that a few german states paid for. The Corona-Warn-App has had no issues with privacy as it was designed privacy first and there is no possibility of data abuse to my knowledge.

China will just press Russia into servitude by demanding lower prices (who else they gonna sell to). It's still going to ruin Russia and maybe China then remembers some of the ethnical-chinese regions of Russia that Putin just set a co

But can you then spend anything? Because spending anything is also a decision on what is more important? By the argument you propose, spending money seems immoral. But spending money on education and homelessness isn't immoral in most

by zaarn 5y ago
Then you need to make your spending on these other problems more effective. Give tenants more rights to stay in a home, give people more job security, make mental health programs cheaper and target vulnerable populations. Etc.

Paying a lot of money into education prevents homelessness! Educated people are more likely to find an income than people who have less knowledge of the world. And it's not only purely educating people, it's also about providing s

Tbh way too many instances banned them when simply blocking the media from the instance was sufficient (I run a family-friendly instance, so NSFW on the timeline isn't great).

I still fail to see how a poke with a needle is as bad as the gas chambers. But arguing with antivaxxers seems always to be a fruitless effort.

They're not legally binding since they're written to be understood as clarifications for the lay-person. Ie, not written in the strict language that courts understand and hence, you might hit edge cases the courts might interprete

>Your argument boils down to "you may make analogies to Nazi-ism unless I happen to dislike those analogies, in which case it should be illegal". No, analogies are fine. Relativising the holocaust or denying it is not. rnd[0] d

Again, that is not what is happening here. The antivaxxers and covidiots who are running around with the yellow stars are trivializing or denying the holocaust with their actions. You are allowed to make analogies and say "this looks b

If you do business in a country, laws of that country apply to you. Selling apps in that country would count I presume. Part of the threat from the german government was to have GPlay and Apple delete the app from german storefronts. I don&

They complied to german copyright law in germany. They didn't block anything in outside countries so I wouldn't call that bullying. The other option is being blocked in or blocking germany.

So you also think that website owners should not be allowed to block content if they think a particular country is worth their business? Because that is what is actually happening, not made up fantasies about "forcing them". Eithe
