    Where I live corn was never used for producing oil. For that purpose we used rapeseed/canola, sunflowers, olives and pumpkin seeds. Corn grown here is mostly used for corn flour, c…

    Two things: - How are these "legitimately free"? For example AMC is a commercial TV channel and as far as I know, they don't offer free streaming. Same goes for MGM, FilmBox etc. -…

    FR released the source code for their tools in 2012, some of the concepts are described in the repo, e.g.: https://github.com/farbrausch/fr_public/blob/master/werkkzeu... A couple …

    Same sentiment here. My litmus test is - after creating a window - "how many lines of code does it take to render a triangle?". With the old OpenGL API you could do this in like 10…

    There are still some remnants of this in Serbian and Croatian, e.g. the semi-dual "nas dvoje / nas dva".

    Note that OGG is not a video codec, it's just a container format. I.e. an OGG file can contain MPEG-4/H.264-encoded video.

    golang doesn't statically link everything by default (anymore?), this is from FreeBSD: $ ls -l axe -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 12830781 Mar 12 22:38 axe* $ ldd axe axe: libthr.so.3 => …

    Agreed, it's some sort of a Venn diagram of "traits" present in both -isms.

    That's not a proper explanation IMO. The thing is - all these settings are introduced "quietly" as new defaults and you have to opt out. So one day you decide to upgrade a package,…

    I got bitten by broken upgrades in the past, when you were still able to simply "brew switch" to the old version if it was there. In addition the cleanup time is annoying when upgr…

    Maybe also these, to limit other annoyances: export HOMEBREW_NO_EMOJI=1 export HOMEBREW_NO_ENV_HINTS=1 export HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_CLEANUP=1

    CEC is probably one of them, but I'm not sure that's a bad thing.

    I think that's on purpose/by design, so that users are nudged into exploring. Things like these were pretty common in adventure games back in the days, which I probably spent too m…

    I'm not German, but if I recall correctly: - "Eins" is for the actual number "one" - "Ein" is "a" for masculine/neuter genders - "Ein" is also used for expressing the amount, e.g. …

    The precursor to both "1984" and "Brave New World" is a novel titled "We" from 1921 by Yevgeny Zamyatin[0]. The mass surveillance by One State is an apt analogy for the adtech-rule…
