I just decide that any site doing that doesn’t really have anything meaningful to provide and has mostly copy-pasted content from actual resource-providing websites, with added SEO.
So I just close the site most of the time.So far it has paid off. I tend to find more sites that give information that was actually written by someone knowledgable about the field.
Thinking I should start making my own list, considering search engines are probably never going to make those easier to find. - Comment on Is Boeing in big trouble? World's largest aerospace firm faces 10 more whistleblowers after sudden death of two 1 week ago:
Maybe Boeing will learn from their mistakes and go for using their relatives as leverage or tarnishing their reputation by framing them with treason instead.
- Comment on Phones have unique phone numbers, why dont computers have unique computer-numbers? 1 week ago:
its not the same as an eSim or sim card
I think you have part of your answer.
Get a laptop with a SIM Card reader, and do what you may.The reason it doesn’t work with IP is because, it started out with local networks and was expanded from that. A domain name is similar to a phone number, just that the user has the IP routing information available, whereas in case of phone connection, a probably similar system for routing is all abstracted by cell exchanges.

I’m guessing you haven’t heard of the Roku television debacle.

You can just decline and play without some multiplayer features.
Though, in my case, it crashed on game start, probably due to unrelated reasons (I’m on linux).

Ah you’re right. Rereading it fixed the doubt. Guess I skipped a few words the first time.
Mental note to not skip words in a legal document. Or any written document. - Comment on Sovereign Computing | Start9 1 week ago:
On the contrary, it (the website) looks really nice.
The product, on the other hand, seems targeted towards “normies” and would probably do better in a place that doesn’t have ppl already self hosting their stuff.

I don’t get this part.
How come they explicitly state the European Economic Area, while at the same time, it doesn’t apply there?Or do the European Economic Area and EU refer to different things?

Forgot to add the name in the title since I first posted in the XCOM2 sub.

Chemical bonds can affect decay rates IIRC
That’s interesting. Only read about this in High School and maybe because of the “not usually a huge difference”, it was claimed that chemical bonds don’t affect decay rates.
I always felt a bit weird with that conclusion, but maybe it was just to make the maths easier, not having to include effects from another force into the calculations. - Comment on It's a trap! 1 week ago:
That’s the aftertaste. Comes after quite a while.
- Comment on Imagine denying other living and breathing lifeforms agency to thrive amd change lol lol lol 1 week ago:
You could also cut down ppl, if they weren’t interdependent and interacting with each other enough to realise fast enough and start retaliating.
One of the big factors making humans (and animals in general) have power over the trees is, that we are faster, both at action and adaptation, thanks to our superior mechanisms of Central Nervous System and Muscular systems.But at the same time, any single human would be much more dependent upon trees in general, as compared to how much a single tree would be, upon us, or other animals. Since the seed stage of the plant is sturdy enough to let it choose its starting point, all it really needs is for the place it chose to remain within a reasonable range of the germination conditions (soil, water, air, insolation quality etc.) and it will be just fine.

Unless you can throw the javelin far enough.

Trees are undeniably far more independent and living than a human.

You stole the wrong one. Björn Tantau paid me the real one for a bottle of water.

Student here.

- Paid for the lens (which wasn’t broken, but who cares, it looked like it and they needed money for their parties)
- Comment on epidemiology 2 weeks ago:
Not only that, it’s not even a single object. It’s just the name given to a group of radiation, which is ultimately just light going randomly here and there.
- Comment on epidemiology 2 weeks ago:
I think they’re trying to say, it can be considered to be a non-accelerated reference frame, where stuff like planets and stars would be accelerated.
Though I have a problem in understanding how it could be taken as a reference frame in the first place.

No leash required.
It’s still better.- less noise

- more tasty ?
Oh, and did I mention, less noise !

Similar story here, except I just stopped using YouTube.
Lemmy’s piping bots help with that. - Comment on Explain yourselves, comp sci. 2 weeks ago:
I myself was confused, when I first saw what a vector did in practice.
Really bad name.But then I didn’t take Comp Sci.

The peel area, which tends to become bitter if kept for long in the fridge.
I’m just speculating now, but it might be having reactions with other cells in the lemon, causing the taste to change.The only thing that is for sure is that the test of the juice drastically changes if kept for long (even if in the fridge), whereas it doesn’t, if squeezed out beforehand and then kept in another container, in the fridge.
- Comment on It's time to let go 2 weeks ago:
This is a much better idea than keeping the juice inside the lemons, as they tend to mix with juices from other parts of the lemon and change consistency.

Just be careful when storing HDDs in the trunk. Unless your car has some heavenly suspension, chances are, they might turn unusable in a few years.
- Comment on Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone 2 weeks ago:
I actually kept dual boot specially for games.
And never used the Windows boot after that (even though the option was there). Turns out it is more fun learning new stuff about a new OS than it is playing games on an OS that you have to fight every time. - Comment on Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone 3 weeks ago:
The only regret i have is that i haven’t switched earlier.
Seems like everyone who successfully switches, has this regret.

My point being, “I can work on it”, can be used even on a space heater.
Same for the IBM R52, which I no longer turn on, because a Pi would be better. - Comment on Apple keeps flogging 8GB of RAM for its Mac computers but it's still a dead horse 3 weeks ago:
But not with the default option of using as many threads as there are CPU cores.
