The converse of this is the bad thing about open source. Although seemingly nothing's stopping people sometimes, somehow stuff still tend not to get done.

Ah ok, what I thought you meant was pretty much the opposite of that, e.g. that they were doing some kind of "openwashing" I hadn't heard of yet. Thanks for clearing that up

Could you expand on this?

This is a rather glib reply that doesn't address the substance of the post you're replying to.

A neat fact I share in this regard: the country with the most Japanese people besides Japan? Brazil!

Yes, not all 4a's were affected. Of two of mine, one was eligible, but the other was not.

Identical setup here, and yes, checkpoint security at an airport in Germany pulled me to the side and made me turn it on to show it was a functioning laptop

"in sonder" is just "in sunder". "The furious gun cracked in sunder and in the air did roar the shivered pieces"

It's pretty manageable with libvirt + virt-manager sitting on top of QEMU, though.

I'm sorry you got that impression as it wasn't my intent.

>I think it’s important to discern that sodium citrate is part of the base of citric acid.

There are no sodium atoms in citric acid, and losing protons to form a conjugate base won't create them. The citric acid will have to react with sodium already present if you don't add some, which may not be in sufficient quantity to neutralize the acid. Sodium citrate is only one of many citric acid salts, and even that has three varieties, so I hardly think you can say it's "part of the base of citric acid", no?

Headcanon, rather.

Double-check your figures

> and has to be recompiled

It doesn't (by the user), those flags are turned on in the `keepassxc-full` package.

It was a superficial renaming initiated by a trademark conflict, that hardly warrants a "predecessor" designation.

Things can decay seemingly by themselves, but enshittification implies it's an agent-driven process.

Worth noting that part of the reason the Arch wiki is more effective than the Debian wiki is that the former only deals with a single version of things, "current", whereas the Debian wiki has to address multiple releases. This makes it more difficult to prune old information or to have a concise narrative, among other effects.

They probably mean tools like distcc or sccache:

The single-write aspect of DVDs/BDs is actually a selling point over the use of USB here.

> 1. Individual change is the only thing each of us can do

> 2. Legislation won’t happen until enough people care enough to demand it

I don't think the first item is quite right, and the second item even suggests it isn't. I would amend it to say that we can't guarantee anything but individual action (and even that is not certain), but it's far from the only thing we can do.

I've been twice now, and as others have mentioned, the venue is bursting at the seams with the quantity of attendees. This, by itself, is manageable, except for the fact that the bathrooms tend to be in a truly dire state after a short while!

Apparently, ArcoLinux, an Arch derivative: https://arcolinux.com/

I have a feeling this person is not all that famous, and it may not have helped if you meant Erik Dubois. Searching for "Erik Dubious" didn't yield much, but neither did the correct (?) search

Edit: while Twitter followers is not a great metric for popularity, I wouldn't expect someone with 788 followers to be a household name

LXD is available via ordinary .deb's as of the Debian 12 release earlier this year, FYI.

"A Mathematician's Lament" by Paul Lockhart is a pretty good read (25 pages) on the topic, I think:

It would be perhaps more enlightening to see the percentage of students that are in a school that offers it rather than the percentage of schools. I don't see that figure in this table, but it does show 4.7% of high school students enrolled in calculus.

It seems to mirror very closely the dynamics of naval arms races.

For example: I don't consider myself an asthmatic. Does this sentence imply that I nonetheless may experience asthma-like symptoms in the afternoon as a component of my circadian rhythms? Or does it mean that those who already suffer from asthma are more likely to have attacks in the afternoon? For the fever part, I haven't noticed such a pattern for myself. Does it mean that fevers are more likely to occur in the afternoon, or does it mean that a normal human's daily temperature pattern resembles a fever in the afternoon?

I doubt it's that the circadian rhythm is news to the person you're replying to, but rather that that line is fairly badly written, particularly the "want sex and have asthma attacks or a fever in the afternoon" part.

Summarizing:

> [They] are the [...] changes [...] that [...] modulate when we [...] have asthma attacks or a fever in the afternoon.

That does not read clearly to me!
