>They don't stop the mouth from closing. Presumably they don't stop it from opening either. That much is obvious. The question is how they get around sabre tooth without being a ma…

>Cats don't really chew much anyway. Is that actually true? If you observe domestic cats feeding, they chew a lot. Small fragments at a time and chew the crap out of it. Whether th…

I was always puzzled how these cats actually fed. These sabre toots seem to get in the way of feeding and chewing.

None of these issues are relevant to me. I'm a graphics programmer, i keep a lot of journals for research, and i needed the least painless method to get them sorted. Even if, say 1…

>At least with Zotero Version 6, you could have just selected all your PDFs and drag-n-dropped them into the interface. I'm on version 9. I did the drag and drop for some of the fi…

I just finished importing and sorting thousands of PDF research papers, about 50 GB I've accumulated over the decades. Originally, I was sorting them in file system directly, but t…

>What I'd like to know is what software runs adequately under it in 4 GB RAM. I find this question rather sad.

The world doesn't even have the foresight of doing something basic, like mitigating against fuel crisis scenario, let alone what you have suggested.

> SVGs should never have supported scripting. I would even go further: HTML should never have supported scripting.

FPS based on last frame is good to see load spikes, particular periodic ones, if you graph them. FPS based on the median of a moving window is good if you want perceived frame rate…

Not quite true. Lots of Thai dishes use a tonne of fish sauce and even shrimp paste in their dishes. They even make side dish dipping sauce (Nam Jim Jaew) that's like basically 50%…

In electric circuits, information is transmitted through the electric field, which itself is close to the speed of light.

Problem with the markdown approach the text will become rapidly ugly with hacks, non-standard annotations to enable same features as HTML.

Yeah I can see that being a source of annoyance for situations like yours. However, I welcome it from a privacy perspective. The indicator alerts the user if some nefarious applica…

Season 1 was great. 2 is meh. 3 is probably the last one I'll watch, as I'm losing interest. The Joe MacMillan dude basically carries the show.

Dudes must be really bored there

These machines don't really detect what kind of materials stuff is composed of, much of that is just a crude classification based on density. True identification requires broadband…
