And the study was even proven wrong in the 17th century. A finite amount of monkeys already produced Shakespeare in a finite amount of time; it took roughly 55 million years.

Source: Primates show up in the fossil records, dating to roughly 55mill years. And Shakespeare's complete works were most likely completed by William Shakespeare, a famous decendant of said primates.

This is what russian "liberation" looks like.

I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with my landlord harvesting my vomit as rent.

Yup. As someone who's worked a lot on ships all over the world, I can tell you that waves can be deceiving. It can look like everything is normal, but suddenly the ships roll and pitch will perfectly time a slightly larger swell which then gets to wash in over deck.

It is worth noting that the ships themselves have no problem handling this. They're designed so that any water that washes over the deck gets drained out and doesn't go into the interior. Whoever is on those decks is another story though. Just because your feet are dry, don't assume they will remain so.

Yeah, so they took down Fmovies and in turn some other sites under their umbrella. If they believe that is a significant blow to piracy, I'm afraid their whack-a-mole game wasn't even that good to begin with.

I was thinking that, but figured I'd go for input data instead for the sake of variation.

 

A couple of others I can think of:

  • Crypto-boom of 2016ish: GPUs/mining rigs
  • LLM/AI hype nowish: User generated data
  • 90's dotcom bubble: Server space

And more convenient for holding

I for one really appreciate the effort of supporting non-AT drives despite the initial skepticism.

Turns out Outlook sucks ass for anything not part of an office365 subscription, so I'm looking for something else. Preferably open source, preferably available via F-Droid.

It's been well over a decade since I saw DS9. Can someone please give me a plot outline?

[–] neidu2@feddit.nl 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I have no idea who that is.

EDIT: Oh, that guy. And now I know his name.

Up until recently, I thought that the US national park was pronounced "yo-semite", as if it was some sort of ghetto-slang used for greeting a Jewish person.

 

One example I've seen is someone talking about being coconut-pilled.

 

Basically what the title says. Here's the thing: address exhaustion is a solved problem. NAT already took care of this via RFC 1631. While initially presented as a temporary fix, anyone who thinks it's going anywhere at this point is simply wrong. Something might replace IPv4 as the default at some point, but it's not going to be IPv6.

And then there are the downsides of IPv6:

  • Not all legacy equipment likes IPv6. Yes, there's a lot of it out there.
  • "Nobody" remembers an IPv6 address. I know my IPv4 address, and I'm sure many others do too. Do you know your IPv6 address, though?
  • Everything already supports IPv4
  • For IPv6 to fully replace IPv4, practically everything needs to move over. De facto standards don't change very easily. There's a reason why QWERTY keyboards, ASCII character tables, and E-mail are still around, despite alternatives technically being "better".
  • Dealing with dual network stacks in the interim is annoying.

Sure, IPv6 is nice and all. But as an addition rather than as a replacement. I've disabled it by default for the past 10 years, as it tends to clutter up my ifconfig overview, and I've had no ill effects.

This is your annual reminder to do a snapshot (timeshift or whatever you prefer) before doing relatively minor changes to your system.

I was supposed to be in bed now, but instead I am stuck troubleshooting xorg refusing to start after an apt-get dist-upgrade.

And as far as friendly reminders go, I should've given myself an unfriendly reminder beforehand, as it's not the first time....

UPDATE: Fuck nvidia 545. All my homies hate nvidia 545. 535 4 lyf!
