- Comment on Would it be possible to run two OSs simultaneously by hibernating one of the OSs? 4 months ago:
Yes, this works. However, you can not (or should not if you possibly could?) modify data on partitions mounted by the hibernating OS. If E.g.Windows and Linux are installed and Windows is hibernating, the NTFS partitions can only be mounted read-only.
- Comment on How long would it take to create a Pyramid today? 4 months ago:
Yes, I just checked again, they claim to place one stone every 20 s which is supposedly three times faster than the ancient egyptians did.
- Comment on How long would it take to create a Pyramid today? 4 months ago:
25 years ago in Quarks & Co, a German TV science format, they analysed what it would take to build the Cheops pyramid in Cologne. It would take 10 month for the concrete foundation and 5 years for the lower two third of the pyramid. Use of modern technology makes it possible to place one stone every 20 seconds, which is triple the rate ancient egypt workers supposedly aceived. So I guess it would take 6-7 years in total.

- Comment on Looking for an app that lists my apps' last updates 6 months ago:
SD Maid SE has the option to list apps in the order of their last update.
- Comment on How to detect problems on computer? 6 months ago:
When I had the issue with mariadb demon been killed, I think either in dmesg or syslog there was an entry reading "Out of memory: Kill process… " or similar.
- Comment on What Calendar and To Do solution do you recommend? 6 months ago:
In principle any DAV client should work. On Android, I use DAVx5 and Tasks.org to access my Nextcloud. On Thunderbird + Lightning, you can e.g. use SOGo connector to use the address books, calendars and tasks.
- Comment on What Calendar and To Do solution do you recommend? 6 months ago:
Then, maybe, Baikal a DAV server is what you are searching for.
- Comment on What happens to those who are severely disabled while in prison? 6 months ago:
So jail is for custody. Thank you.
- Comment on What happens to those who are severely disabled while in prison? 6 months ago:
What is the difference between a jail and a prison? As a non-native speaker I’ve learned that they are synonyms.

If you are looking for a FOSS app, phiola should do the trick.
- Comment on Does color change how hot a laser can get something? 6 months ago:
The EM waves of near spectra, UV and IR, are commonly often referred to as ‘light’ as well. Wikipedia even states:
In physics, the term “light” may refer more broadly to electromagnetic radiation of any wavelength, whether visible or not. In this sense, gamma rays, X-rays, microwaves and radio waves are also light.
Which fits to my perception of physicists, where in astronomy every element starting at Lithium is referred to as ‘metal’.

You’re welcome.

- Comment on Does color change how hot a laser can get something? 6 months ago:
All EM waves are photons. When X and gamma rays interact with matter, e.g. by Compton scattering, i.e. hitting electrons of an atom. Thereby the photons loose discrete amounts of energy, leading to an increase of their wavelengths, and the electrons are then lifted on corresponding higher energy levels. When the electrons ‘fall’ back onto their base levels, additional photons are emitted.
Microwaves, however, have to low energy for this kind of interaction. They e.g. induce vibrations and oscillations of molecules which is perceived as a temperature increase.
- Comment on Does color change how hot a laser can get something? 6 months ago:
Then, as tobogganablaze already wrote, the blue laser delivers more energy, as blue light photons have higher energy than red light photons.
- Comment on [Serious] Any high-quality right-wing media, books, explainers? 6 months ago:
If you really consider reading Mein Kampf, don’t.
- Comment on Using Nextcloud as a directory/folder/remote location 6 months ago:
That would not be equivalent to ‘remote location’, as the files would be stored locally on your computer and being synced with the cloud.
- Comment on With public key cryptography, why can't someone decrypt a message using the public key? 7 months ago:
AfaIk, yes, in principle one could construct the private key from the public key. However, given the current computational power, it would in practice take forever and a day, if the encryption algorithm is sufficiently strong.
- Comment on If hot air rises, why is it colder at the top of a mountain? 7 months ago:
The temperature of space actually is close to absolute zero, so quite cold.
- Comment on Why bag the hydrant? 7 months ago:
Isn’t the street that concrete area from where the picture was taken? So if a snow plough comes to remove the snow, it essentially would burry the hydrant.
- Comment on CFCs 8 months ago:
AfaIk that’s not entirely true, e.g. Debian is changing the system time from 32 bit integer to 64 bit. Thus I assume other distros do this as well. However, this does not help for IOT devices running deprecated Linux distributions.
- Comment on Denmark orders schools to stop sending student data to Google 9 months ago:
Concerning the cloud workspace, it would be possible, that the IT services of the Danish regions (or of the whole state) run centralised clouds (Nextcloud, Moodle, …).
- Comment on Just about every Windows and Linux device vulnerable to new LogoFAIL firmware attack 11 months ago:
Wouldn’t it be better to state that every UEFI device is affected, since the vulnerabilities are in the UEFI of the computers, but neither in Windows nor Linux?
- Comment on YSK that chiropractors are not medical doctors and "Systematic reviews... have found no evidence that chiropractic manipulation is effective" 11 months ago:
No, I definitely don’t think that’s funny being allowed to ‘treat’ people after ‘passing’ a weekend seminar.
- Comment on YSK that chiropractors are not medical doctors and "Systematic reviews... have found no evidence that chiropractic manipulation is effective" 11 months ago:
Wow, a whole week!
- Comment on The world's largest aircraft breaks cover in Silicon Valley 1 year ago:
OK. I didn’t intend to sound aggressive.
- Comment on The world's largest aircraft breaks cover in Silicon Valley 1 year ago:
I just stated that there was a more ambitious project that would have worked, but unfortunately ran out of money. I am impressed that Pathfinder 1 was actually built.

I don’t think that the Imperial Star Destroyer qualifies as air ship.
