I still like the “No no, my fault, we did kidnap three of them after all. Now, is all this unpleasantness behind us? Excellent. Might I ask you again to move into our village so we can get to know each other better?” attitude. The natives must have been so confused.
- Comment on PSA: Oracle Cloud Free Tier halved 2 weeks ago:
I’m not really sure Azure or AWS is much better. Not a defense of Oracle or Larry, just a dearth of free VPS servers out there, and I’m not sure I want to spin up a paid one with the other guys.
- Comment on Switzerland’s solar railway has been a success. What happens next? 5 weeks ago:
Concerns don’t mean it’s a problem, just that it was identified as a possible problem. Did this study bear these concerns out? From the article, right between two of the paragraphs you copied:
Sun-Ways has tackled these issues by building more resistant panels than what would be installed on rooftops, fitted with an anti-reflection filter.
Also, yes, install them on houses. We can do both. We should keep putting them just about everywhere they work until there is no added benefit or there is no more fossil fuel being used for electricity.
- Comment on Self-hosted keypass fork recommendation 1 month ago:
While you’re correct, you can merge databases with KeePassXC, which just means the method of syncing is separate. So you could have a shared folder using one of those methods you mentioned to sync and just merge it in regularly. Certainly not as simple, but does solve the problem.

This is a great example of the minority being correct. There were absolutely people who thought slavery was abhorrent, and they weren’t the norm. Time passed, opinions changed, and now the majority think slavery is abhorrent. There are still those who think slavery is justified, even in the developed world.
You can see similar trends with women’s rights, LGBT+ rights, etc.
