Indeed. Might be the drivers.

Most importantly GPU drivers. Run dxdiag.exe, Display tab, it should say DirectDraw and Direct3D acceleration are both Enabled. For that particular iMac you need two of these drivers, because two GPUs.

Another possible thing is SATA driver. Normally installed automatically as a part of Windows, but I never tried running windows on Apple desktops. If Apple gives you Windows drivers install them, otherwise install CPU-Z, “Mainboard” tab, see the chipset, then install from intel.com.

What about them learning English's even weirder quirks? Does that make you uncomfortable as well?

I have come to the point that I sort of accept C's quirks, and, with the appropriate mindset, I can even love them. I certainly see myself as an old man teaching these arcane quirks to a young and innocent audience.

> That airport train station is set up to transport the passengers from the airport to the city center, not inter-city travel.

Which is why in France and other countries, train stations at airports have high speed rail service to other cities. It's the case at CDG( Paris), Lyon St Exupéry, Amsterdam Schiphol. That way you get there via plane, switch to high-speed rail, and get to your final destination.
No, that's just an exaggerated caricature of what I'm saying.

I'm only saying you should avoid using modern things needlessly. This means, don't do it when the POSIX-compliant syntax also serves your needs. e.g., don't do [[ -f "$foo" ]] when you could just as easily do [ -f "$foo" ]. And if you do need to use Bash-specific features, make sure it's safe enough that foreseeable misuses will fail safely. Or when that's not possible, try to mitigate it somehow (maybe with a comment, or by putting in some extra dynamic checks, or other solutions you can think of).

And this goes for other things too, not just Bash. Probably outside programming too.

We have already seen the seeds of this type of thing in the US media.

When Morales was couped, there was plenty of hand-wringing about how he was developing extractive industry (i.e., nationalized lithium), and how Bolivia was burning the rain forest, etc. and in general a lot of noise from "green" "activists" about how good the coup was.

Just look at who gets prosecuted by the ICC to get an idea of how an EU-led international agreement will wind up.

"...setting vague rules to hold people responsible when you deem fit to prosecute."

I agree. The rules don't even have to be vague. The people in power have "prosecutorial" discretion, so they can charge one person and let another go, "just because". If you file any complaints against someone in the system, the system will ignore you. When laws are enforced unevenly, you end up with the unaffected people saying it's a good law and the unlucky ones who were biasly subjected to it thinking it's a bad law. If everyone was subjected to the laws equally, then there would be support to change the "bad" laws. Instead, the system wants to hold onto as much discretion as it can so that it wields more power.

But the Lybia revolution against Ghaddafi wasn't fought or financed only by the Guardian's readers. For instance, with unemployment at 30%, maybe the population just had nothing else to try than the removal of their dictator like neighbor Tunisia had just done.

I agree with you "western" (let's say democratic instead) medias are very biased. I live in Hong Kong and I couldn't believe what I was reading in british media about our "oppression" while kids were breaking the pavement down my road and doing V for vendetta graffiti under the cries of "Fuck the Popo".

But all in all, it's fine, to be honest. We don't ask media to be without bias, but to be clear about them. We know somewhat the editorial position of the Guardian, they're one opinion amongst many.

What turn countries into rubbles, is when people can't understand who's telling them what. Facebook is too blurry, you don't know if it's your sister, a CIA agent or a FSB one talking to you about a solution to a problem. People get angry in closed networks, that echo and echo until they feel the entire population think the same way. And you can't really calm them down with deep and complex analysis because while anger is easy to spread with a quick BS meme, calming down people requires focus, dual way communication and effort on every side.

That's what happened to HK at a small scale, a sort of irrational mass anger, but that's not what happened in Lybia. Simply because in Lybia, people weren't the richest most powerful people on the planet. They tried the last resort solution, they won somewhat, now after the destruction they have to rebuild and they're learning it's way harder. We've all been through these phases, no need to argue the Guardian caused it :) I'd be partial to Facebook though :D

I think the ethical considerations here are complicated and worth serious investigation, although I do firmly come down on the side of "let's not murder people."

Real world trolley problem!

You're a developing country. You can either choose to industrialize with your native energy resources and commit ecocide or you can hamper your economic growth and isntead spending money you don't have on flakey renewables from the West and save the environment.

In all seriousness, this is kicking away the ladder at its finest, and I've seen tons of policy suggestions even going as far as to suggest global carbon trading schemes, carbon tarrifs, and carbon taxes.

Some even have the paternal gall to suggest that this would be good for developing countries since it would help them transition to green sooner.

I won’t criticize you because your ideas. Still, I’d like you to know how a society would work if we were more aligned to think like that.

There is a government philosophy called utilitarianism. It’s based on the premise that a policy is good if and only if it increases overall happiness in a society thus, ends justify the means.

It’s totally valid to be an utilitarian. Nonetheless, you have to accept two premises.

1. There is no individual rights.
2. Measuring happiness is a trivialization of human experience (ex. How many people would need to be given an iPhone in order to justify the torturing an assassination of a child?).

Hot take: If something is a good idea, you don't need a totalitarianism to convince people to value them and change their behavior.

If people don't change their behavior, it isn't either that good idea, or the person is not good in convincing others to change their behavior.

Of course, there are multiple factors, like shortterm vs longterm vision; competition with someone who is less ethical, ecologic, etc. But overall, totalitarian regimes don't have a good track record of longterm & ethical success, quite the opposite.

As many things as possible should be handled on individual level and volutarily and as little as possible on centralized level with using force. This is an approach, that allows cohabiting of people of different opinions, cultures, etc.
A bit off topic, but what is the cut off to be a self-made man instead of privileged?

I'll assume your question is sincere.

There's a couple reasons why Iran should not have nuclear weapons:

1) Political Islam can be used to justify the use of nuclear weapons against other countries, both Western and Islamic, whether pre-emptively or in times of war.

Just read the Koran.

Israel is fixated on Iran because Iran is a regional industrial power that is capable of even more than N. Korea can do.

2) For example, Pakistan, an Islamic country run by the military, is unable to control its own army because of Islamic ideology.

(The Taliban in Afghanistan was allowed to take over the country because neighboring Pakistani military commanders were afraid that orders to lower-level officers to intervene would be ignored, or worse.)

3) Pakistan is Sunni and Iran is Shia. One is a heretic.

You seem to be really underestimating the difficulty of what I wrote. First of all, workable processes differ based on industry and the strategic goals of the company. If you apply the Google way of doing things to Pepsi you won't have a good time. Second of all, ensuring processes are followed when you have very intelligent managers under you trying to bypass them for their own benefit is amazingly difficult. Third of all, managers are also in charge of hiring and firing which ties into all of this.
Our economic system is totalitarian as it is based on the increasing extraction of resources without any regard of the externalities.

It's a way to engage in activity that is superficially distinct enough that the law has not yet caught up with it, like driving for Uber or owning an AirBNB. It remains to be seen if the "innovation" in question is tangential to the main purpose (skirting an existing activity whose lawful bounds are already well-defined), or if it isn't, and the tech is instead truly transformative. You may think you know, but nothing really matters until a court, regulatory body, or legislature weighs in.

Also Proof of Stake.
One of the most damaging acts that most people do to the environment is having children. Controlling that would greatly improve the environment. While any single person is far smaller than the scale you want enforced, you could have standards pushing for reduced population that would penalize countries that don't implement those standards or large corporations that engage in actions that promote population increases.
> That makes sense, since Atmos is a discrete set of channels designed for speakers in specific locations around the listener.

I think that's the issue as well; in a room with speakers all around, the sound has space to move and bounce about and merge so the individual speakers are less obvious, but in headphones it's pretty much a straight line into your ear. Might just need a bit of fine tuning and partial merging of multiple channels / directions.
Net operating loss carryforwards are reported today. They are not treated as a reduction in current profits (operating or otherwise), because they are water under the bridge from long ago.

Yet, people are up in arms over it.

If company A experiences actual results (and reports) -50 two years ago, 0 last year, and +50 this year in operating profits, in my view, they should owe no taxes on their profits, as they have had none. There's nothing gaming or scamming about that in my view. If your method suggests they should report -50, 0, 0, (or 0, 0, 0) I think that's actually obscuring their true results.

In that specific case, what would you suggest they report for each of those years?

Of course many of the issues related to winning the lottery are caused by the attention you suddenly receive.

But a related story from someone that was able to retire early thanks to Bitcoin - https://old.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/lz4x37/ive_...

> my advice is that you need to get prepared to deal with boredom. We grow up with our parents telling us to go to school, have a job, a car, a house and that this is life. But when you suddenly have the car, the house and everything else, what's left? Do something for yourself and have this in mind.

Most of the planet works for money because they have to. That means the majority of their time is consumed by earning money. Once you take away that imperative, you suddenly have a lot more time on your hands. That in turn effectively triggers an existential crisis - what do with all this extra time? Some people will be able to turn into taking their lives in a new direction but others are going address with drugs and alcohol.
So this is something you should only be using tor applications through? The benefit of a tor box is that it's much more immune to exploitation from the local machine leaking data - if done right.

It'd be nice if you could simply point tails at this but afaik it's bad to do tor over tor.
