A lot of FSF members I know are active contributors and are fairly reasonable, that said it definetly seems like the milage can vary wildly across the community. I have seen the type of behaviour you describe online but…
That is a pretty smart idea actually.
Airpods... end of list.
Water does work, it is also astoundingly heavy. That is the major issue. Elegant but impractical. It simply blows out any useful payload volume and costings because of the amount of water required. Last estimate I have…
It is all very well to quote Roosevelt and yes he is correct. But there is a difference between putting in the hard work and trying achieve something great, SpaceX have done that and will continue to do great things,…
It can cause more damage than good by making people doubt the entire mission as a whole. Funding will dry up pretty quick if folks think it is just another dead end. And $30 per Kg would be nice, the last figure for…
The issues of space radiation is far from discredited. It is one.of the major issues that still doesn't have an elegant solution. One.idea that SpaceX is proposing is to try and get the trip to Mars to 6 months. It will…
With all the positive talk on here, I shall present a contrary point of view on this. This is the YouTube channel Common sense skeptic, that seems to be doing a good job if trying to test Musks/SpaceX claims, typically…
Thats interesting. I am running on a GTX 1650, so not what you would consider a real powerful card but it will run at just above 100fps at 1080p with everything maxed out. But that is with some frame stalls when it…
It seems very much intentional and it happens on the desktop as well. It isnt entirely consistent when it happens but it can take as little as a few minutes until it triggers the notification of account creation. It…
Considering the original developer walked away from it in June 2019, I can see it being an issue. https://github.com/michael-lazar/rtv/issues/696 The forks from it however keep it living for now. Im waiting for the day…
Im in my mid 30s, I liked OK Boomer as a meme to let lose some emotion steam but then folks started to take it a little too seriously. To dismiss ideas outright on age alone is just stupid.
The ACCC is one of those beautiful things, a government department that works precisely as intended without drama or controversy.
Same here with the boycott, caved and got some NC headphone and they live up to the hype. Said company have always been masters of audio.
One of my desktops is a C2Q and I swear I could get another decade out of it yet.
True but the die size has also grown. So it not a 1:1 comparison. An impressive feat for sure but it is just using brute force to increase performance nowadays.
He is always an interesting read but is usually all to eager to jump off the deep end. I recall him in 2012 saying that the aviation industry would be history by 2018... that clearly didnt pan out. The theory was…
Mine is a little later than yours, a 2009 T400 (2x2.4ghz Core 2, 4GB RAM) - having a light weight distro (Trisquel) plus an SSD has meant that this thing still feels incredibly snappy on most things. Only 1080p video is…
In some ways it kind of makes it worse that we knew a bit about who he was come election time. Truth be told, Scomo was barely a figure anyone would have recognized until he was suddenly PM. He was there in the shadows…
If that is not good enough for some folks, there is also the print version of the site. A big 700+ page thing that really need to get my chops into. Been on my bookshelf for about 6 months just calling me to delve into…
Will be interesting to see, the last time there was a decline was during the 2008 GFC. As we continue moving to decouple GDP from CO2 emissions eventually we can have a drop without an economic disaster to do it.
Peak oil is funny, there were a lot of people that were riding the doom train and predicting that we where heading to the sudden crash kind of collapse. Obviously it didn't happen and those ideas are comical. Peak oil…
Ted Kaczynski did some awful things because of things like a road being built through Montana near his cabin. I don't dare think about what he would have done if a New York people flood came through.
There is a fella on the radio weekly here in Aus (and the BBC), Dr Karl Kruszelnicki. I always liked his take on it, "Could blow up any time between next Tuesday and 10,000 years from now. Don't worry about it."
This was the solution on Macs at least. I know someone that still uses a Mac mini G4 as their daily runner but running the latest Debian. Only way they can get any decent software support.
