I was under anesthesia a few years back and it really opened my eyes to what death actually is. You don't dream. You don't experience anything. It's not scary. You just... stop being. I went under and then next thing I…
I have one of these and highly recommend it. Do note it is expressly for converting older digital signals to HDMI though. MDA and CGA are really difficult to find displays for these days, since even old CRT monitors…
Egh, right? It's kind of annoying how whenever anyone suggests trying anything to improve society someone comes out of the woodwork to cry about government overreach. Never an argument about the merits of the proposal,…
I don't really get this line of reasoning. If the Founding Fathers were in favor of immigration, but in practice their immigration policy was racist, shouldn't the conclusion be that if we want to adhere to the spirit…
Yeah, the statement is literally just "the exact specific thing we said this project would cause happened." Lamentably the people listening already knew that, and the people who need to hear it won't listen. Honestly…
> I don't recall any evidence that the murder was intentional. You're mistaken, but this is a complicated subject and it's entirely reasonable to not know this. I had to look it up at the time to learn it as well.…
It's not the case as far as I can tell--the DC Metro PD reports show crime there is dropping steadily over time[1]. There's a lot of factors that go into why crime rates change, but suffice to say that if the police…
> No, there is nothing to indicate that. Agreed. I'm noticing this idea floated throughout this thread and it's extremely alarming. There's nothing to suggest that any of the officers died under suspicious…
You're just describing Usenet, which still exists, and is still easily accessible, and has been around for decades on end. Honestly any action to crack down on social media for enforcing their terms of use for their own…
In fairness it's reasonable to not want the sort of inevitable flame war that will come of simply mentioning that Trump did anything whatsoever. Much as I'd like to, it's nearly impossible to have a measured…
You can't seriously be drawing parallels between Facebook and North Korea of all things. What could Facebook possibly do to prevent you from exercising your right to free speech and free assembly? If they have that…
Eh? Who has suggested it does? Disregard for the moment that it's Donald Trump so that we can speak without partisanism mucking things up. It doesn't take a mind reader to gauge the intent of another person based on…
Probably not if he's wanting CP/M. Time travelers prefer APL.
Yeah, I've heard people complain before about how gas cans suck now because California, but never cared enough to bother looking into it. It makes sense though that the regulations would be about air quality, since…
Took me a while to find a source that doesn't have such a blatant axe to grind, since they're evidently spamming this article everywhere. Turns out the spillage they're referring to isn't what we think of as spillage,…
There was an exemption made in the DMCA for archive.org's software library back in 2006, so their use is legal. https://yro.slashdot.org/story/06/11/29/1917234/internet-arc...
I use it whenever I expect a directory to be empty and want an error if for whatever reason it isn't. It's a bit niche, but good to have in your toolbelt.
I recently picked up a C128 for nostalgia's sake and find that if anything these 8-bit micros are even more interesting today than when I was a kid. These days you have all the resources the Internet provides,…
Well, by definition "unordered" means you can't count on any particular order. So while parsers may indeed preserve order, anything that relies on it is in violation of the standard. That said, I agree that being aware…
Also in violation of the spec: > An object is an unordered collection of zero or more name/value pairs, where a name is a string and a value is a string, number, boolean, null, object, or array.…
Man, if my Switch supported Steam Link it'd be hands down my favorite portable ever. I've got a ton of games that would play just fine with the Switch's controls, but simply don't have Switch ports, plus plenty I'm just…
Another good resource if you're interested in handheld or SFF computers for gaming is ETA PRIME's channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/ETAPRIME He goes pretty in depth on the products he reviews, and periodically does…
I sorta get it, from the standpoint of just allowing folks to speak their mind without repercussions. Unfortunately in practice that invariably drifts to being somewhere that the worst dregs of society congregate…
The article mentions they joined United Food and Commercial Workers Local 1546, who according to their website are 1.3 million strong. With those numbers they could conceivably make Instacart address the issue.
It certainly could be. Pair a bluetooth controller and hook it up to HDMI, and play Retroarch to your heart's content.
