Fair enough, I capitulated and I use spotify for podcasts now

Have you used Firefox recently? There are a few chrome only sites but I've been daily driving it for a few months and it's mostly upside

Pretty weak response. What would a good comeback have been?

"Hur dur good job bro you sure showed those librulz and gayz"?

You didn't have to call me out like that

I think this has everything to do with the "Kenya-led intervention" US imperialists are trying to create in Hati

All the same great war crimes you know and love, now with half the calories!

I'd go with:

"Collapsing the veneer of politeness that had historically covered the bloodthirsty colonialism of their societies"

I found this in the wastelands of Google: https://www.howtogeek.com/linux-distributions-to-breathe-new-life-into-old-hardware/

I read the guide and it seems pretty solid.

If it is not x86 is it the Itanium ISA?

I suspect it would be at the bottom right blue cluster with the legumes

You're welcome!

So if you didn't care about having to wait for the video to buffer on every scroll, it becomes an easier problem. I kind of think that defeats the purpose of a tiktok-style interface though.

I agree that you wouldn't necessarily need to build a new algorithm, but like I said, it's part of the smooth scrolling magic

I'm a dev but not very good at mobile.

I can promise you that a lot of engineering work went into making the tiktok scrolling experience so smooth. Part of the trick is having a good enough algorithm that the user wants to watch the majority of served videos.

Another huge part of it is having lightning fast content distribution and aggressive "prefetching" of the next videos in the feed.

I don't want to discourage you but I also don't want you to be caught off guard by the difficulty. Do you want to make this bad enough to give it your nights and weekends for a year?

Hans Kristian Graebner (stonetoss) is a literal nazi

Rail is fundamentally superior to roads + cars at an engineering level.

All at the same time:

• Rail has a smaller footprint

• Rail moves multiple times more people or cargo per hour

• Rail has multiple times more fuel efficiency

The fact that USA's policy has been designed to favor cars only makes them more 'practical' than rail if you consider political constraints more binding than physics constraints.

I'll grant that trucks have tighter turning radii and maximum operating grade. If we truly only used them when those characteristics are needed THAT would be 'practical'

I think your best bet is lemmynsfw.com (not federated with this server)

There are actually anti-greenhouse gasses like SO₂ (of acid rain fame(!))

ELI5: a database is the "memory" of a program.

Every piece of data that any software uses almost certainly comes from and goes to multiple databases.

Once the data is stored, you can execute "queries" to have powerful access to update many records at a time, read particular records based on their relationship to other records, and so much more.

Your bank balances, your purchase history, your emails, every part of your digital life is almost certainly spread across a constellation of databases.

Bonus Fediverse content:

Lemmy itself uses the Postgres database extensively. Posts, users, comments, votes and more are all individually stored in the database.

Mastodon also uses Postgres. If a post goes up on Lemmy, and a Mastodon server is federated with it, the Lemmy server will send out a HTTP request to the Mastodon server containing the contents of the post. The Mastodon server will use this information to write its own record of the post in its own database.

Regarding your question about VMs: You can run a database inside a VM, or give the VM access to an outside database via queries, or both! You might run SQLlite (a small and excellent embedded database) on the VM to track its local state, while also running queries against a large postgres database to synchronize with other services in the cluster.

Sorry for the Walmart link but I have been very happy with this product

I have only had it for a couple months though.

Takes two aaa's, if you make them rechargeable it can be zero waste

They say a woman becomes a mother when she first feels the baby stirring in the womb, but a man only becomes a father once he sees the baby for the first time.

I'm not a bio parent myself, but if that stereotype is true I think you should expect some emotional discordance during this phase.

I think you aren't wrong to be worried, but I think if you focused your mind and energy on nesting and getting excited with your wife, it would help bridge the gap.

I'm 100% sure biology will win out and you will be changed forever when the baby does come

Your trackpad + driver would have to have Linux gesture support, not all do

"useful and convenient"....

How about deadly, destructive, and isolating?

Or we could just ignore the corrupt alliance of industry colluding to eliminate other transportation options and wax poetic about the Free Market and Rugged Individualism, right?
