Or pay for a nebula subscription and watch there.

My Ankarsrum Assistent mixer has a detachable power cord with a standard C13 connector. It seems to be possible, but it’s likely cheaper to have fixed connectors.

Quite to the contrary to what you write, many people pushing for Rust explicitly recommend to be very restrictive about touching existing, battle tested code and only rewrite it if…

In any practical application there'll be a known set of errors and I'm generally fine merging code that has known deficiencies. But personally, I'd not condone merging anything tha…

That is not Rusts guarantee. The guarantee is that safe rust cannot in itself introduce UB - UB can only ever be introduced in unsafe blocks, but it can then materialize in safe co…

Indeed. My point is that just using the standard tools in the Rust ecosystem - like miri - would have trivially uncovered this error before it made it to the mainline.

That kind of error was entirely avoidable. There are well-known tools in the Rust ecosystem that detect this kind of error and while the tools do not detect all instances of UB cau…

With a liquid cooler you could theoretically have the heat exchanger in a separate room or outside.

That doesn’t mean it’s unenforceable. You don’t need a permit to leave Germany to any country as long as your planned stay is shorter than 3 month. The only way this could be enfor…

I’m not convinced that Iran has damaged their relationship to the gulf states any more than the US and Israel have damaged theirs. The US has clearly demonstrated that they are wil…

Philadelphia is a cheese brand in Germany, maybe they just like that. Or the movie.

The price of water has gone up for a multitude of factors. One of them is water savings in general, but not primarily because the sewage system requires regular flushes. The reason…

There are no absolute rights, even in the charter of human rights, which is about as basic as it gets. The reality is that every right, if regarded as absolute, violates another fu…

I can do that for my network - but the group is multiple kids that play from their home. I'm not going to teach all of those parents how to mess with their network. There's just wa…

They're all playing from home, connected to their residential internet. I don't know their IP addresses.

Yep, I agree. It's essentially impossible given the contraints. I'm mostly responding to a post that says "just run it on a VPN" with an example that just can't run on a VPN. (3) w…

Ok, why would I want to do that? Because when Microsoft bought Minecraft they decided to split the ecosystem into the Java Edition (everyone playing on a computer) and Bedrock Edit…

That assumes a device that can enter a VPN. I’d like to run a DNS server for a group of kids playing Minecraft on a switch. Since they’re not in the same (W)LAN, I can’t do it on t…

There's really a wide range between "not looking after kids" and "watching them every second." Unlike the physical world, digital items allow kids to transition from a totally safe…

The problem is not that modern cars are somehow less reliable than old cars. They are much more reliable. But they’re also much less repairable without specialized equipment. You c…

This looks a lot as if the facebook/jemalloc repo inserted a single commit 70 commits ago and then rebased the changes in the original repo on top. Because the commit SHAs for the …

It's a perfectly not reasonable cookie banner. If you click on Details, you can see that they're not using marketing, statistics, or any other kind of cookies apart from the techni…

Neither bank nor credit card companies can possibly manage the tariff question for any party. Tariffs get charged on the goods that you import and depend on what specifically you i…

Even if tariffs are refunded at some point, the cost of implementing and managing the tariffs, list sales, lost opportunities and so on are not. Nor is the cost of recovering the t…
