    Nuclear reactors do exactly that

    Very cool! There's a bunch of tools I regularly use, but usually just pick the first result of the search engine. Might warrant a bookmark :) Nitpick: the image compressor page see…

    This is a pretty good resource for some basic tuning (mostly buffer sizes and connection count): https://pgtune.leopard.in.ua/

    The way it's worded in the readme makes it sound as if this was exactly the intention.

    Lazy commenters need to look at the README to see that the bloom filter is mentioned as a next step. The hacker is indeed clever.

    I have synced ~9000 photos from my phone in february. That worked pretty well. I was done in about 10 hours. I don't remember whether the originals were downloaded, or whether they…

    Maybe the confusion stems from the word "chip". Creating a chip usually means designing and producing a microcontroller or a processor, not a printed circuit board that you populat…

    The demo shows exactly that with the density dots, no?

    Bought the Framework 13 in March 2022 with 16GB RAM and a 512GB SSD for about $1000. Later, I upgraded RAM and SSD to 32GB/2TB (for about $180), which made it a breeze to run multi…

    I have both the Framework 12 and the Framework 13. While I agree that the 12's display is not the best in class, it has one of the nicest touchpads I've ever used. It's hard to des…

    They did notify Collins Aerospace in the past, so I assume they do report internationally.

    While I understand the advantage of using the built-in language features (and I know why it is required to be done that way), I still think using {enable && } for conditional rende…

    Now that I looked closer, you seem to be right. Hotmail does it as well. But Gandi didn't back when I used it, and MxRoute doesn't. That's probably why I was surprised.

    I did the same and am a big fan of their services. Still, a word of caution: their policy states that they delete emails in folders named „Trash“ and similar after 30 days. It is d…

    That's probably unrelated. The date of a commit in git can be modified to whatever you want. I once backdated commits because my timezone was off, and I wanted the timestamps to ma…

    I understood it as a phishing page imitating their own system, targeting their own employees. Nothing related to AWS, except for being hosted there.

    But the Ubuntu update servers are necessary to serve the update. Taking them down prevents the users from downloading the update. I don't know whether the update servers were affec…

    I have a Prusa MK3S and it has been very very reliable. There's also a ton of mods you can download and print, which modify or extend the printer for specific use cases. They are a…

    People who want to see it can search for it, but posting without a disclaimer is unnecessary.

    True. But the GPS receiver doesn't know whether you are on the surface or not (and at what elevation), so it must always assume 3d space, hence a sphere.

    Comment #47741879

    The explanation about the spheres is slightly inaccurate. With one satellite, you won't get a circle on the earths surface, but a sphere. GPS is not constrained to earths surface (…

    Oh. I didn't even know there were macros. But that looks very useful!

    The only issue I have with the Spreadsheet is that I need to add an alias for every value I want to use in the Sketch or Part Design workbench. In practice, this usually looks like…

    I did something similar when Microsoft gave away Windows Phones for every app published on the app store. I used the Chuck Norris API though. The one I used is sadly no longer avai…

    I also think it's the opposite, since the dependencies are almost guaranteed to be compatible with each other. And I think Ruby libraries in particular are usually quite stable and…
