Well, anything over a non-continuous x for example off the top of my head (and, yes for well-defined forms you can do the integral), still I have no idea what the cartoonist is on about and haven’t heard ‘anti-derivative’ for a donkey’s age, guess it’s poorly defined grade school stuff.
- Comment on Here’s the paper no one read before declaring the demise of modern cryptography 2 weeks ago:
And everyone thinks about real time implications, what about historical ? Seems pretty likely that the NSA has been storing an appreciable fraction of the internet for a long damn while. Come Q-Day that all gets opened and searchable. What would Trump do ?

Dear God (hope you got the letter and…), so that’s where my photo ends up. So much overkill.

Immediate disregard.
- Comment on Trying to avoid US elections content as a non-US citizen. Is this possible on the default Lemmy-UI? I prefer it over Tesseract, Photon, Alexandrite and Voyager (which have built-in keyword filters) 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, keyword list would be awesome.
I have a personal bunch of communities as is allowed and occasionally jump to main when I run out of content. Usually see something I regret, often Trumpian, amusing but depressing. Maccas window Trump etc. Will code for relief if it’s not too (ironically) political.
- Comment on Syncthing Android app discontinued 3 weeks ago:
Not sure, but it is still active with like 80 contributors. It’s much the same as the original with a couple of extra features and more languages, so transition should be minimally painful, maybe even export - import level. I’ve been using it for years as I saw the original wasn’t very active, but they’re pretty much (essential) feature complete and stable, which is good. Apparently, google thinks that’s bad.

I’m a going with far more harmful.

Also some Russian hackers are brought down the Internet Archive
Er, do you mean the Russian hackers brought down the IA (and why, I’d peg government actors for that, more to lose, and more competent with legality) or were brought down by the IA, in which case I missed it.
No judgement, English grammar is obscure, but this sentence is ambiguous and incorrect.

- Comment on Magpie-swooping season is here. But you can avoid attack – if you play by their rules 1 month ago:
My personal take, as a bike rider, use those corvid smarts (yes I know they’re not technically corvids, but they fill the niche, and they’re smart)
Jerky, throw it for them when they swoop. It lasts for the breeding season, and they will remember you (They’re not called the black and white mafia for nothing, and their protection is relatively cheap). Next time you ride past watch the guy/gal behind you get swooped.

Ah, another well-thought-out tech law from OzGov in the vein of such hits as ‘The laws of mathematics are very commendable, but the only law that applies in Australia is the law of Australia’ and the AssAct. I swear we’re the designated test ground for dodgy laws for the five (7,13,etc) eyes…

- Comment on What's the difference between a $50 HDD and a $200 HDD? 2 months ago:
For a media server speed matters little (5400rpm is plenty), if you’ve only got one drive, warranty is king. Thing is you shouldn’t only have one drive, drives will fail, and warranty doesn’t get your data back, so you plan for it. At the very least, you should look at getting an offline backup as soon as possible, now you don’t care if your drive fails and can get the cheapest ones. Ideally, you also set up a RAID5 (or Unraid, or mergerfs+SnapRAID) on your server, now you just get a replacement drive and rebuild. Remember RAID is not a backup, it doesn’t protect against accidental deletions for example, so you still want the offline backup.
Also, don’t sleep on manufacturer recertified drives, as long as you have a backup they’re significantly more cost-effective.

- Comment on I'm at a loss on what server to buy 2 months ago:
I was here to say the same as pezhore, separating storage and compute is almost as important as separating church and state. Muck around, break things, have fun, all the while your data is safe (don’t forget offline backups though). The MS-01 is a fine looking box, but any old NUC / SFF will do for your purposes (modern AMD cpu or a graphics card if you need / want plex transcode).
