I like the integration of the switch, should be standard. I use many switch plug-ins just to avoid stand-by consumption (it really adds up over the year) and to avoid high pitch humming on some devices.
YSK: there’s also remote controls for these switches, very handy
Waddaya mean we can’t just arbitrarily delete stuff of a public server once we know its ip address? It’s not fair! 😡
Ah yes, if you’ve ever had the problem of a game’s graphics not working properly but you can’t adjust the graphics because it requires you to launch the actual game and navigate the settings menu you will appreciate that. Most games store and read their settings in an external file and a launcher can provide a meaningful way to edit those. That being said there’s many launchers who actually don’t offer this feature and are just used to shove ads your way or track your behavior.
Sure, for many things there’s a deluxe version (clothing, cars, food, housing) but they tend to be physical. Since media is largely digital these days and has fantastic marginal distribution costs the rich consume the same stuff when it comes to popular media. Ie there isn’t an alternate Hollywood studio just for the rich, itunes doesn’t have a separate server, the new york times website is the same for all, etc.
¿Does it comment on your life with latent cynicism, in prosaic tone and with a deep, haughty voice like Wayne June (narrator of Darkest Dungeon)? Damn, now I want one too.

Na, names are about pronunciation (how you call someone). Written letters are an approximation of that. You can’t pronounce a newline, so there’s that.
You’re on to something but I doubt it’s the syllables. Rather it seems about phonetic ambiguity.
“twentynine” could mean both 29 and 2009, so it’s better to use “twothousandandnine” for the latter. “twentyten” cannot be interpreted as 30, only as 2010.
Just ask the parents what (s)he likes.
Nice. I’m wondering how often this cycle has played out so far …?
That was a wild ride. Well done 👏
Never knew about transparent web proxies. Neat. Do they play a part in commercial DDOS protection? I’m thinking of those please wait while we’re evaluating your request messages that you get on some sites. But also about any methods used to prove that you are human.
This has some real draw the rest of the fucking owl vibes, well done.
Went to a local rock concert once. Had to go into the middle of the crowd to fetch a friend and alert him of something that had happened. The music was unbearably loud for me. Noticed that virtually everyone was wearing ear plugs.
Found it absurd. Why not lower the volume instead and have people forego the plugs? Less noise pollution in the local area too. After the concert was over I asked some participants about it. Everyone claimed they liked the loudness or that it was necessary somehow. My impression: they liked to keep up with the appearances of being hardcore, it being for tough folks. But they didn’t want the actual hearing damage.
This is true for serial killers in general though. Murders tend to be premeditated. If you are planning a murder you’ll look for ways to maximize your success and minimize the chance of getting caught. In modern times you don’t have to rely on pure strength; there’s a plethora of workarounds from drugs to guns. The actual desire to end a human life (usual enabled by some form of psychopathy) is the limiting factor. A serial killer personality type doesn’t throw the towel just because they are physically weak.
Guess what I’m saying is: there isn’t a large contingent of women out there that would suddenly turn serial killers if they were to physically become stronger.
For gluten free products: the whole production chain needs to use different tools or be sealed off from the rest. You can generally use the same mill, kneader, oven, tray for barley, wheat, rye, etc without meticulous cleaning in between. But if you want it to be gluten free you now need to either do that expensive cleaning or more realistically have an entirely separate set of machinery and ensure it never gets in contact with your main line.
Here in Germany it has been revealed that the church set up a whole network shuffling around offenders (or sending them away to south america) and muddling traces. It’s even been shown that the former pope knew about such cases. It’s systemic.
Basically it’s a combination of supposed moral authority, intransparency, and mutual cover ups. People are willing to look the other way a lot when they perceive of someone as having a higher mission or great social standing. That includes law enforcement. Think of Donald Trump who’s a fraudster-racist-rapist-insurrectionist and yet the MAGA crowd loves him. Maybe celibacy plays into it as well, sexual urges don’t stop just because you don a robe.
Younger people are less and less religious with each generation. So at least from that angle the problem might eventually go away.
The wheel (for transportation) is really a concomitant of stable roads existing. Really wheels only work on flat, paved surfaces. The “invention” of the wheel isn’t the stroke of genius that pop culture likes to portray it as. It’s just something that follows from having the right environment. The Romans for instance built and maintained widespread road networks throughout Europe to quickly move troops to the front lines. It turns out that those roads also were a tremendous boon for traders and travellers using carts.
Comic’s still funny though.
Indeed so but the power draw is very miniscule.
