Is no one going to comment on the “magnified five times under a microscope”? Five times? What kind of weak, low refraction plastic lens, cost of bubblegum microscope are you using to magnify your enormous monster ants?

Deadpool and Wolverine - Fun movie with absolute no content. I enjoyed myself throughout and sad afterwards thinking about what a nothing burger the movie is. All empty calories.

So, if they were endangered cows and your friend didn’t like milk, the milk would be vegan…?

It dissolves, that’s where dust comes from.

Danish: I can confirm

So it’s misdirection. It should be “You’re the product”. Free or not doesn’t matter.

I haven’t tried it, and it seems to be in alpha, but… Kotlin?

I had to look it up. It flips a bit. https://doc.endlessparentheses.com/Fun/butterfly.html

Open another terminal. Killall vim.

A lot of focus and money spent on renewables that could have been spent elsewhere, like on infrastructure or welfare. Wind and solar farms take up a lot of space that could be used for other things like nature. I’m not saying renewables are bad, but it’s always a compromise on where to spend resources.

Unless the title says so, this is news to me.

77" Samsung OLED.

Marantz 6015 running 5.2.4 surround

4 Tannoy XT-8F for front and surround

Tannoy XTC center

Fyne Audio F500 rear height speakers (Tannoy went out of business)

KEF q50a upfiring speakers for front heights

2 XTZ 12" 12.17 edge subwoofers

And an Nvidia Shield for good measure.

Ps5 performs disc duties.

My university mainly ran Solaris, pretty much everything also ran on Linux. In the rare case where Windows was required a remote desktop was available.

My university probably isn’t your university though, so answers may not be worth much…

To me, a Linux user, Apple is more of a jail or a pusher. I don’t want to use it because of lock in. Oh, you have an iPod? It’s much better with a Mac. An iPhone? All your friends should also have it, and now we have this special app you can only use properly with other apple users.

No thanks.

I agree! Can we also get rid of politicians, mosquitoes and people who use their phone at the cinema?

We have slackbots that post, for instance, who has vecation every day. Because it is configured to post this using UTC, the time of day this is posted changes twice a year.

I might have a recurring appointment for lunch in my calendar every day at noon. Now DST happened, so I have to wait until one to eat. That is inconsistent to me.

Timezones change. If I have to go to the theatre on half a year at 18:00, I don’t want to be there at 19:00 because someone decided local time would be better if we moved it an hour. The show time certainly won’t be moved.

What is local time? It’s spacetime. When did it happen and if relevant (eg. a photo) what was the offset (because I would like to know the time of day)? When will it happen, and where? Online meetings across timezones are tricky, of course, but excluding the timezone won’t improve that.

You don’t need to actually write it, just raise your hand and we have registered your vote, either via your computer’s camera, Google Nest, Google Assistant or inferred it by analysing the WiFi data returned by your Google Mesh network.

It is? Without even mentioning it?

To be clear I believe it makes sense to do a lot of things in UTC, but future events should almost always be local time + timezone to make scheduling predictable and consistent to humans.

To be fair, returning the actual timezone (as defined by tz.db) is useful if you don’t just want the current time since you’ll be able to take DST into account. Not sure how Vienna is -8 though, it should be +1 (or 2 depending on DST).

First of all, what in the blazes is your doctor doing in surgery?

But let’s assume he’s also a surgeon… That’s honestly probably the healthiest point of view for a surgeon. Surgeons tend to lose people and it can be devastating if they take it personally. An 81 year old surgeon might have come to terms with it, so as long as he still does his absolute best, why does his relationship to the worst part of his job matter?
