So, while the Infinite Monkey Theorem is true, it is also somewhat misleading.

Is it though? The Monkey Theorem should make it understandable how long infinity really is. That the lifetime of the universe is not long enough is nothing unexpected IMHO, infinity is much (infinitely) longer. And that’s what the theorem is about, isn’t it?!

That’s why they invented docker

[email protected] explained above:

The original post only gave half the explanation. It’s not that lead exists in general, it’s that lead exists within zircon crystals.

Under normal circumstances that would be impossible, zircon crystals strongly reject lead atoms as they form. There’s no way to stuff lead into the crystal lattice in the quantity we find them there. But uranium and zircon go together just fine, we just have to wait for it to decay into lead. The trouble is it takes ~4.5 billion years for just half of those uranium atoms to turn into lead. So any zircon crystal we find with half as much lead as uranium must be roughly that old

Linux is pretty forgiving. You don’t even need to use dd, if you know what you are doing you can create a totally new partitioning format and just copy the files. Since getting the fstab just right in that case is more error prone, just using dd is simpler. If using dd, don’t worry, you can resize partition afterwards.

Look: it’s a hat

“Allowed and supported” is something different then “its possible”. The article mentions some points that seemingly haven’t been “supported” in the past:

• Stop requiring Google Play Billing for apps distributed on the Google Play Store (the jury found that Google had illegally tied its payment system to its app store)
• Let Android developers tell users about other ways to pay from within the Play Store
• Let Android developers link to ways to download their apps outside of the Play Store
• Let Android developers set their own prices for apps irrespective of Play Billing

Google also can’t:

• Share app revenue “with any person or entity that distributes Android apps” or plans to launch an app store or app platform
• Offer developers money or perks to launch their apps on the Play Store exclusively or first
• Offer developers money or perks not to launch their apps on rival stores
• Offer device makers or carriers money or perks to preinstall the Play Store
• Offer device makers or carriers money or perks not to preinstall rival stores

Thanks Mr. Epic Judge

That was my first linux distro I tried, took 12 minutes to boot on my Pentium 75 with 8mb RAM. Still better then win98 though

to see it smash

I’m not really sure why I expected here but I was satisfied anyway

Give it two more years and brave will stop backporting manifestv2, then you have even less options to avoid google deciding which content needs to be shoved in your face.

I’m using Firefox since forever. In the past I have checked a few times if a swap to chromium is worth it. It never was.

I really don’t understand people that prefer Google over Mozilla. Firefox works like a charm and Google already knows enough about us IMHO.

It’s fucking crazy. I see it like that: capitalism is king at maximizing profits. That’s what capitalism is good at. Capitalism is a tool.

I hate it when someone expects big corporations to act morally. That’s none of its business. Again, capitalism is just a tool that does one thing: maximizing profit. Just like the hammer is not at fault if you hit your thumb the corporations aren’t at fault if their profit maximizing does more harm then good.

We, the people, the benficianries of why capitalism even exists, are responsible to use that tool the right way in the right situations.

And how do we do that? By creating rules and laws that restrict the ways profit can be maximized in situations where it is not at our best interest.

Now please tell me:

Whose fucking idea was it to allow corporations to hire a few dozen lobbyists that professionally influence politicians?

Why should a corporation be allowed to sponsor the election of a person? Don’t you think this is already way too much influence for the cancer that capitalism can be if allowed to grow unconditionally at the wrong places?

Please stop letting immoral corporations influence the rules they need to obey for some irrelevant profit gains that fuck us all over big time in the long run! (fracking anyone?)

The market will sort itself out, or so they say. Let’s be brave and create rules that help us tackle the myriad of problems we all experience right now (global warming, housing crises, health insurance, gun violance…) and watch in awe how the corporations manage to find ways to make a profit while still benefiting us as a whole.

That’s how you use a tool!

Peace out

P.S.: Critique at my train of thoughts or writing style is appreciated. I’m rather stoned right now and english isn’t my first language, so please be gentle.

So, let’s say we create an llm that will be fed will all the copyrighted data and we design it, so that it recalls the originals when asked?! Does that count as piracy or as the kind of legal shananigans openai is doing?

Tried it for a few days. It works just like firefox minus one embedded video that crashed after 5 secs but worked in ordinary firefox.

What really surprised me was the speed. Loading youtube on firefox ~0.6 on zen ~0.1 which felt rather nice. I’m still not sure if its worth the hassel to switch.

Nice read. I find it really interesting that due to the unwillingness of many to learn something new, America is almost the only country that still uses these silly measurements.

5280 ft in a mile my ass. You don’t even use 0.x numbers but fractions like 7/8th instead. And still some people believe that 1/4 pounder is bigger then a 1/3 pounder. That’s crazy

some pills have nasty taste if they touch your gums or mouth. fill in water first, then pill, then swallow.

damn, you beat me to it. can confirm, it works like a charm

LPT: Fill your mouth with water, hold your head back and open mouth. drop the pill in. close mouth and swallow the water.

you wont even feel the pill.

by throwing the pill into the water already in your mouth instead of putting itin your mouth and then drinking the water, the pill wont have a chance to stick to your tongue or gums and release its bitter/nasty taste.

Tbh, I don’t get it. How can a coffee, that can be max 100°C cause such burns? I would have never believed hot/boiling water is that dangerous, without that story.

might be your smartphone browser/system is using some kind of proxy. this could explain that you are able to ping, but the browser shows access denied. if no log entries are generated on the server when trying to access it via browser, it has to be something on client side or inbetween. on grapheneOS check: Settings - Network and Internet - Internet - Wifi-Settings - choose edit at top right - then advanced. If proxy is not set to none, change it and test again.

If this still doesn’t help, my last bet is some kind of duplicate IP

You are talking about Limux which started 2 decades ago, but there are other initiatives to enforce oss software in german government.

I think very few people mind changing it

I doubt that. Do you know how many system configurations depend on these keywords? Do you have any idea how many hours of work and system outages this would cause?
