Fedora made the switch in F40. Arch has it as a todo. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/ZlibNGTransition https://archlinux.org/todo/zlib-ng-migration/

Same here. I can imagine growers don’t like them as much though, despite the lack of patents and trademarks. In Europe they were abundant and amazing quality last year, lasting int…

That’s the best one of the lot. "Dein Name ist ungültig", "Your name is invalid", written with the informal word for "your".

L with stroke is the english name for it according to wikipedia by the way, not my choice of naming. The transliterated version is not great, considering how far removed from the p…

The name of the city has the L with stroke (pronounced as a W), so it’s Łódź.

I think the source of confusion is the use of “at the time” in your previous comment, which is talking about events in WW2, when the article discusses events in 1914 with no refere…

To be sure, the burning of the library happened during the early days of WW1, which had neither nazis, gestapo, nor Nuremberg trials.

Hardware Unboxed has the interesting theory that the I/O die, which is unchanged between Zen4 and Zen5, is a significant bottleneck especially for the latter. The 3D v-cache would …

The SSL error happens because the server sends a certificate which is only valid for the www subdomain. So this link should work: https://www.semiaccurate.com/2024/07/24/amds-zen-5…

Agreed. Beekeepers have gathered a lot of experience. Is some of it based on incorrect understanding of science? Sure. Would they have noticed if insulation was a deciding factor i…

The 2008 quench happened at the other side of the ring. (Sector 3-4 then, sector 7-8 now.) The physics run was going very smoothly up to now [0]. Last year part of the machine (RF)…

The ability exists. Such constraints aren't used very often for root certificates though, as far as I can tell. The Japanese Government CA which was mentioned in the discussions ar…

My parents used to own a LaserJet 4M plus, which had PostScript built in. I played around with it once I figured out the possibilities. It had all of 2MB memory originally, which w…

OCSP is done over plain HTTP (for obvious reasons), so the OCSP provider doesn’t have exclusive access to this data. There is not much value there for DigiCert and others when ever…

I can confirm this issue. It’s related to Fedora’s crypto-policies which are more restrictive than Firefox. In this case it seems to be caused by the SHA1 DigiCert root in your cer…

Or sea planes. That was what I was asked for most recently.

Interesting question, I did some searching. I guessed they might have done such research with fruit flies [1], but I can only find one plan to try it for nine generations [2]. I su…

The Airbus factory has had a museum nearby since 2015, Aeroscopia [1]. It hosts two Concordes, among others (like the Super Guppy [2]). It has a pre-production Concorde (F-WTSB), u…

I’d suggest using chronyd for anyone planning to set up a new time server this way. Unfortunately it’s not covered by guides as extensively as ntpd, but it’s less error prone in my…

You’re not wrong, anything older than a Pi 4 is a bit flawed as an accurate time server. Even the Pi 4 needs a stable temperature or its clock speed will be unstable, as there’s no…

I use uBlock Origin with default third-party blocking, so I see such trends happening as I browse. The strong consolidation on fastly feels like a recent development (last year, at…

The salt compartment is usually on the floor of the dishwasher. The salt is used to soften the water. Not directly, but as the source of sodium ions for an ion-exchange resin. [1] …

The genocidal aspect of this story makes it a lot worse, but the 20th century catholic church has form on this. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mother_and_Baby_Homes_Commis...

From the paper: For the high-magnification objective we find M = 254×. For the low-magnification objective we find M = 27×.
