That was a great read. Awesome write-up, encouraging me to play around with a different device some day…

Ah - I didn’t realize when the post appeared in my feed. Gotcha.

Good riddance. I don’t like having an invasion force within our borders. Please withdraw the rest as well and take the fucking nukes along.

Never heard about Gumroad, but fuck github. Use an independent, non-corporate repo hoster.

Neither country has workers rights on par with Europe for example.

For now. Now watch us fuck it all up.

Older. We are all stardust from prior supernovae.

it doesn’t seem so trivial for the bullshit trashpile of starlink satellites. either way there’s no reason for those to be allowed to exist other than corruption.

And nothing of value was lost.

Density of loose sugar is already between 0.7-1 grams / cm^3. Compressed sugar as in a cube weighs more, depending on the compression / packing factor. But 1cm^3 sugar cubes are rare, chances are you only think they are that big, while they are actually more near the standard cubes 16x16x12mm^3, which again triples the weight.

You kind of prove my point here: people typically fail to guess weights of a few grams.

Edit: corrected density, I had previously used the actual density, not the density of loose sugar, which is less.

Europe is also descending into the grips of fascism,

Absolutely. :( And it is mostly the centrist / conservative parties embracing facist policies, while most of the conversative voters are morons pretending they are still voting for a legitimate party.

I always get a bunch of downvotes. Especially on communities like !europe@feddit.org

My experience - formerly from reddit - and here is that “europe” channels are the European version of MAGA idiots. Those could be wholesome places, but instead they are infested with morons and trolls. I suspect in part because trolls that do not speak any (other) European language can blend right in with English trolling.

They’re the ones running a 10 years old database on a 11 years old os in a public facing server “because it just works”, not me

My point was that they upgraded to a newer database (also old, but newer), which is arguably better than containerization.

Not sure what you are smoking. Fascist Magastan is fucked, and von der Leyen & buddies are evil pieces of shit - I know no one who doesn’t vote conservative or (blue) Nazis who has a problem admitting that.

I must have missed the part here where the torero had a change of heart.

For example the issue of MySQL 5 being unavailable would be a non-issue with a container

So people careless enough to “just container it” for old, possibly security-compromised software - you call that a “non-issue”? How about upgrading and configuring for compatibility?

I am amazed how one can use these words while being totally oblivious to the feelings of pain and being scared that the animals go through.

Human selfishness.

Except it isn’t: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sugar_cube

That’s not how they became billionaires in the first place though. Being banned I mean.

Similarly, how the kilogram is the SI unit for weight, not the gram.

Everyone in metric zone fails as well to guess weights of a few grams :) best I can do is estimate 1/4 kilos
