WHY ARE YOU IRONING CLOTHES WITH THE SOUP STOVE?

It’s bonehealingjuice, but ODing on five different kinds of stimulants while CRANKING THE HOOOOOG

Somebody made it this way years ago and there’s not enough demand to warrant the effort to change it. KDE Plasma is 16 years old. GNOME is 25. Some features are so deeply embedded in the spaghetti code that any significant change would result in a cascading break.

Sure, I don’t disagree, that’s not what I’m saying. All three offending parties could/should be held responsible, depending on how the takedown request was delivered.

I don’t believe that it was a malicious misuse. Most likely some fuckwit moron at Funko or Brandshield didn’t understand the difference between the hosting platform and the registrar and sent the takedown request to the wrong place out of negligence.

It wasn’t even a DMCA request.

One that is nothing but positive: you can edit post titles and use limited markdown in them.

One that’s done as much good as it’s done harm: polycentric moderation. One instance can’t enforce its own community rules on others. It protects lemmy.blahaj.zone from bigots, but it’s also why Lemmygrad exists.

I certainly wouldn’t feel safe working next to a CEO. Who knows when they’ll snap and do something horrible?

I can’t recall anything like that. The only other crash I remember that was caused by a sensor was the Schiaparelli lander, and it was an ESA mission.

Ah yes, it’s on the internet, so it must be American.

• Kosmodrom Baikonur (located in Kazakhstan) is the primary launch site of Roskosmos (Russia)
• The Proton is a Soviet-made heavy launch rocket, still used today (not related to Rocket Lab’s Electron and Neutron families (which are also not American))
• GLONASS is the Soviet/Russian equivalent of the GPS

I think it’s safe to say that the guy did not land a job at NASA.

Take a look at this list: https://networkupstools.org/stable-hcl.html

I use an older APC Back-UPS 500 to power my homelab and all network devices. So far it’s saved me from 3 power outages, and can last about 30 minutes with a 50W power draw. It doesn’t have data connections of its own (newer devices do), so I had to improvise with an ESP32 board that reports if it detects a voltage on the beeper, plus some cron jobs on Proxmox.

I simply use Nextcloud to sync the vault directory. It has clients for both desktop and mobile and works perfectly fine. I use it to sync basically everything between my work, home, laptop, and mobile.

The only drawback is that I don’t know if Obsidian automatically reloads a file if it is changed - if not, and you leave the file open in the editor, you might accidentally overwrite the new file with old data.

Full ahead. Otherwise the order would be half impulse or some other quantifier.

A bus that couldn’t get over a small incline because of fresh snow on top of ice and had to be pushed by the passengers and pedestrians. It’s odd because it happened in Europe in a city where buses are particularly well-maintained.

A Proton-M booster carrying a GLONASS satellite crashed shortly after takeoff at Baikonur in 2013. The failure was caused by a gyroscope package that had been installed upside down. The receptacle had a metal indexing pin that should’ve prevented the incorrect installation. The worker simply pushed so hard that it bent out of the way.

When you make a foolproof design, God makes a better fool.

LCh (lightness, chromaticity, hue; a.k.a HCL) can produce values that fall outside the RGB gamut. Since the color picker only offers LCh as a convenience option and always converts it to RGB, it is possible to produce an LCh value that cannot be converted to RGB, and those colors show up as solid magenta ranges on the sliders.

It’s sort of like taking the square root of an arbitrary real number: not all real numbers will have a valid result.

Alternatively: imagine a zero vector (XYZ = 0, 0, 0) in 3D space, and tell me which direction it’s pointing in.

My advice is to just ignore the LCh values unless you specifically need to work in that colorspace.

that’s okay, I stole it too

Civ doesn’t compare at all, it is nothing. Completing the main scenario (building a silo and launching a rocket) can take days to weeks if you jump in with zero knowledge.

Factorio is the definition of a dopamine drip. You start with a pickaxe and work your way up through the technology tree. Coal, coal-burning mining rigs, smelting furnaces, conveyor belts, coal-burning inserters, steam generators, electricity, assemblers, vehicles, oil processing, chemical processing, better generators, better automation, more complex materials… and that’s just the individual items. You’ll have to build assembly lines for increasingly complex items, transport networks with conveyor belts, pipes, or trains, find raw material quarries and wells because everything is finite, then either manage air pollution or expect to be overrun by alien bugs. Small individual steps, but they add up very quickly and there’s always something to do.

I’m forcing myself not to buy the recently released expansion because I know I’ll lose days to it. If you have ADHD or a thing for automation, it is stupidly addictive. The factory must grow.

Being the more virtuous party doesn’t work, so yes. Yes to all of the dirty tricks, including extralegal. Anything to preserve some kind of sanity because the alternative is unacceptable.

Those books were published in 2019 and 2021. They’ll still be mostly accurate a decade from now. Open-source developers usually try not to introduce breaking changes to mature software unless absolutely necessary.
