More like defending TSMC... large majority of all high-tech silicon is made in Taiwan. If that foundry burns, the consequences would be astronomical. The possible consequences are already at a point they could make threats via self-sabotage.

I never finished reading my CMake book that weights about two kilos. It's now outdated, except for the core concepts.

The short version:

This means that you reset your password with a 32-character long generated password, which is saved in your vault, PlayStation saves a 30-long password and then you use the 32-long password to log in, which fails because it isn’t the same.

That password prompt should be scorched to earth.

I tried Luks and BTRFS more than 6 times leading to a script error each and every time.

This was actually my experience also, so I went back to a manual install to just get it done. I think the archinstall script won't get any configuration of device-mapper/LVM right (including disk encryption with cryptsetup). The disk encrypt setup had even more hoops to go through than just LVM.

Splitting water and keeping the H2 converts the energy into chemical energy. The oxygen is just dumped into the atmosphere, which is a loss of efficiency I think? What I know, H2 is the highest form of chemical energy there is.

Some processes require burning, or cannot be electrified otherwise. It's these where the hydrogen is needed directly. I think hydrogen is a source material that should be mostly be converted into other chemicals. Etc. methanol and ammonia are more easily storable, unlike diatomic hydrogen which can slowly diffuse through a metal wall, enbrittleling it. Clean ammonia production could replace a giant mass of fossil fuels.

Here is an another rabbit hole: most of your body's nitrogen is from ammonia and the fertilizers made from it.

It might be cheap now, but I'm fearing the December - February i.e. the coldest part of the year when the price can get salty. Especially when/if the OL3 (or any other) plant trips offline, the price will bump up a lot.

The good part of having excess eletricity is that doing a "electric-kettle" district heating becomes feasible. So instead of reducing the (windmill) production, it makes sense to dump the excess generation capacity into district-heating. (which has large capacity to store the heat)

When I heard the news, my first though was a mix of "Oh. oh no..", "yay! no vendor-lock-in", and "OH, NO."

My expectation for the future is that a crowd fundraiser like on Wikipedia (does anyone remember those?) will be on the way for Mozilla... there is no way they can survive a 80% drop in the budget gracefully.

I didn't even think what the questionnaire was about, and filled the entire thing. It's a rare thing to see for a FOSS project to ask what I'm staring at this very moment, how to make it better. But yes, the questionnaire was a bit oddly structured.

"How are you?", is basically an open question of "what have I done lately? where am I headed?" It's an invitation to politely level some burden at least, but this also includes taking in some burden of the friend.

Reading this legend never gets old. 😂

Why would learning be gatekeeping? I wish I could just teach my secrets... The manuals are only a shallow guide to knowledge. E.g. ls, has condensed for me to ls -laR mostly, and that ls<tab> usually gives tools that list something. ch<tab> gives tools to "change something", like chmod. mk<tab> to "create something" mkdir etc.

I may navigate in the terminal, but putting me at front of Blender etc. and I'm back to crawling speed of RTFM, and all I would see is a zoo of buttons.

 

A greentext moment:

Decide to listen sweet sweet psytrance.

Playlist only available on Spotify.

Don't like non-free software. (a fucking 1TB disk full of free)

Try make the account anyway.

Somebody else has registered your email.

Request to recover password.

The request arrived at my mail box. Freaking out. No memory of why, when or how.

Listening sweet sweet psytrance.

(Still freaking out.)
