Just gonna leave us wondering about the algorithm, eh?
In arithmetic geometry, the Cox–Zucker machine is an algorithm created by David A. Cox and Steven Zucker. This algorithm determines whether a given set of sections[further explanation needed] provides a basis (up to torsion) for the Mordell–Weil group of an elliptic surface E → S, where S is isomorphic to the projective line.
Or was that just me?

Does dockge count as a dashboard?
‘Cause I use that to quickly check on what’s running, what’s stopped. Then I do most of my mainenance in a terminal, via SSH to the server.

Ha! :) I never heard that before but that does make sense. I remember my American grandma hoarded supplies like this her whole life, long after the lean depression-era years she lived through. Every single pencil was used down to the nub. We got a serious talking-to if we tossed a milk bottle with more than a drop left in it.
- Comment on Watch first, then wipe: Some China’s restrooms put toilet paper behind paywall 1 week ago:
It really varies. I just did a big tour of China in June and we saw many fancy, futuristic toilets in malls and hotels. We saw somewhat stinky but otherwise clean public toilets at parks and such. And we came across a couple of holes in the floor with a septic tank below ground, exposed to the air - and no TP provided. Those are rare now, from what I saw. (Septic tank was the word I couldn’t think of before) I’m no plumber though so I may be getting that word wrong still.

Many are just ‘squatty potties’ - is a hole in the floor and a tank below.
And yah, tourists are told to bring TP already since some bathrooms don’t have any.

Everyone loves Psychonauts 1 (including me so much) until they get to the Meat Circus level. That one level can shit and fall back in it, IMO.

OK, thank you. I'm sure this is why people always say self hosting email is not for beginners.
- Comment on Have you tried self-hosting your own email recently? 3 weeks ago:
I am not OP but I love the idea of selhosting email. This is stopping me though:
... set it up correctly with a healthy IP address and domain (not blacklisted)
Any tips on how to accomplish this?

- Comment on Verizon’s ‘software issue’ has disconnected many wireless customers across the US 5 weeks ago:
Verizon has confirmed to customers in stores and online that its network is having an issue on Saturday. Many people have been unable to connect and make or receive calls for hours, while DownDetector’s tracker peaked in the afternoon at around 3:30PM ET with more than 20,000 reports. Some customers report their service has continued to function throughout the day, so it’s unclear what the cause is exactly.
Downdetector’s outage map showed hotspots in many cities, and Verizon didn’t specifically list affected areas. On X, the @VerizonSupport account confirmed the issue in response to customers’ questions, but didn’t have additional details on restoration or how widespread it is
