More likely a merger would ruin things for users of bot GNOME and KDE.

> Having a single desktop for developers to target if they want to reach Linux users would be nice as well.

This would be pointless, the vast majority of applications on linux don't care what DE they're run under. You can run Gnome applications under KDE, KDE applications under Gnome, just about any random GUI application under any window manager you wrote up last weekend which the developer of that application never even heard of.

I don't understand what you're on about with Electron. Electron applications run under any DE or WM. Electron is a framework for creating GUI applications, it's not a desktop environment. They're orthogonal. I think you might be confusing KDE with Qt, Gnome with GTK, these things are not the same. An application that uses GTK is not a "Gnome application" unless it's affiliated with the Gnome project. An application using Qt is not a "KDE application" unless it's affiliated with KDE. Most GTK and Qt applications are independent, not affiliated with either KDE or Gnome. But even when they are affiliated with one or the other, you can still use them in the other.
I was able to get an access token, and my timeline loads in Tweetbot, but I can't see mentions or activity, and I can't tweet from it.
I mean, i do live in vancouver. If you live somewhere rural i'm sure you have less options but what do you really expect?
Your analogy is way off. If smoke alarms worked like NOTAMs, they’d go off every time someone strikes a match, lights the fireplace, turns on the gas cooktop, uses a hair dryer, or plugs in any appliance. Oh yes, when the house is on fire too. All have non-zero risk of inferno.

NOTAMs are full of pages and pages of goop — inconsistent, impossible to accurately filter, hard to read, at times unclear, and mostly noise.
> I like reddits choice of "quarantined"

It isn't the same at all, since Reddit tells you about it and it still shows up in search etc. Shadow quarantined, yeah that works. The word "shadow" comes from not telling the user that anything is different, and Twitter doesn't tell you when this happens, it just delists your posts from everywhere except your followers.

Anyway, it is extremely disingenuous to say that Twitter doesn't shadow ban.

Consider this scenario: Person A is shadow moderated by Twitter, has a friend B. A replies to B's tweet, but his friend doesn't follow him, they just talk. And now B will never see A's tweet, and A has no idea that B can't see it, and neither do B, both thinks that they can see each other. What is this if not "shadow banned"? Twitter makes these people post things thinking it will be seen, but it wont, wasting their time and potentially hurting their mental health since nobody responds.

For all intents and purposes this is "shadow banning", when you hurt people like this but say that you absolutely don't shadow ban you are so dishonest that I'd still call it a lie.
Usually Canada bars are only allowed to sell what they buy/import through the provincial liquor monopoly. Ontario bars/restaurants can't go to Quebec for stock. I'm guessing some of those items in Quebec are special imports and if you're not on the ball, it can be a while before you can acquire more.

Some BC Scotch bar got in trouble for this: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/fets-whisky-...

This looks great, though extensions being sold has a history of going badly for the users, is it safe to install this now it's owned by Tweethuntet who seem big on "monetisation" ?
I very briefly looked into extensions for some things I wanted to do, but got kind of lost in the documentation. The browsers seem to expose a very large API and I failed to figure out if it supports what I wanted.

Essentially what I wanted was to be able to implement a simplified version of the "wget" command. I wanted to be able to invoke the extension on a page and have it save the current page contents to a file, then navigate to each link on the page that doesn't go offsite and save those pages, and so on to a specified depth.

(Why not just use wget itself from my terminal? Because the pages I was interested in have JavaScript that modifies the DOM, and it is that modified DOM I want).

Suggesting that people who can't afford to eat should liaise with their elected official, who should present it to the legislature, empower the Competition Bureau to properly investigate the issue, then wait for the Competition Bureau to audit these companies and win a case through the judicial system (and that's the ideal case) – well, I think that's going to happen too slow to prevent starvation.

I'm personally worried about this because rising food prices predict riots and rebellions through history. Either prices have to come down, wages have to go up, or we're gonna see a greater loss of social cohesion and we'll have a much bigger problem on our hands. Getting the government to act on this on a macro scale is going to be a huge task given who's in power right now.

Absolutely. No disagreement there.

I'm just speculating as to how Twitter could have ended up disabling API keys for most of the popular third-party clients, while leaving some of the more niche clients active.
Haha, fair enough. Hopefully the slightly tongue in cheek nature of my post came through.

>The data being backed up is in tiers of importance or 'frequency of change', and based on this the backups are staggered, some daily, some weekly.

This right here is the key to backups: triage your data to understand what is truly important. I roughly put things into three buckets

- Priority 1 - potentially disastrous if lost. Financials, taxes, legal documents, and password vaults. The nice thing about most of these documents is that they are immutable and likely append-only (eg you only have one set of 2020 taxes). For most people, this amount of data should be well under 1GB and require only sporadic backups. Which means you can purchase a bolus of $10 thumb drives, encrypt the collection, and leave them everywhere. Mail an annual copy to mom, leave one in your bag, at the office -wherever.

- Priority 2 - anything you created which does not fall into Priority 1. Home pictures, videos, your 1000 half-baked programming projects, etc. Potentially a much larger collection for which a real backup system becomes necessary.

- Priority 3 - everything else which is theoretically replaceable. The archive of music you "acquired", backups of youtube videos, personally ripped DVD collection, etc

Your first paragraph and your second paragraph are at war with each other. Those immigrants come from places with far less education funding—but a much stronger focus on math and science and useful knowledge instead of individual self actualization.

It also so happens those immigrants come from societies that deal very aggressively with criminals, drug dealers and users, and other anti-social people: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-bangladesh-drugs-killings.... Even as Americans are trying to normalize drug use—to the point where the capital city smells like a sewer from all the weed—they are insisting they need to import people from cultures where parents will beat their kids for using drugs.

As one of those immigrants, it seems to me that the reason America thinks it needs immigration is that it screwed up its kids and young adults and needs to import kids and young adults from places that didn’t.

No, that's not how this works. I've already given more to support my position than you have to support yours. If you only want to throw around baseless claims, go back to twitter. If you want to have a real discussion, support your own position before asking me to defend mine.
Yes, Tesla is an outlier in the EV business. They only have one-pedal driving with regen or fully friction braking with the brake pedal. That is not true of the Chevy Bolt.

Almost every other EV (and hybrid) on the market does blended regen with the brake pedal. Regen is applied when you first press on the brake pedal. As long as the pressure is mild to moderate, regen is used. If you press hard (as in emergency braking) the friction brakes are engaged. When you get below about 10mph the friction brakes are also applied as regen is minimal at that speed. The result is that these cars will do regen whether you are using one pedal driving or not and their brakes will wear much less often.

I’m not sure why Tesla doesn’t do blended regen. Early one the manufacturers didn’t have the algorithms tuned and you could feel the transitions but that has not been the case for several year. It seems that Tesla just never bothered. They seem to expect you to only use one-pedal driving and some people do.

One think to watch for if you only use one-pedal driving, your friction brake pads can get rusty from disuse. Then when you do press on the brake pedal, the brakes may grab or may not decelerate as quickly as expected. Some people find that their brake pads are actually frozen from rust and don’t work at all. It is a good idea to once in a while use those friction brakes to scrub off the surface rust.
Elections in Russia are a ceremony of confirmation, which also requires certain numbers to be shown to public. It is hard to go from 30 to 70% by just faking it, so they have to please the core voters. If that means ending the war, they will end it. If that means winning it, they will keep fighting for another 5 years.

You don’t even necessarily need to mask the latency. You can just accept inputs at a low but consistent tick rate, and players will be able to adjust as long as packet loss and jitter are minimal.
So does your phone and somehow still doesn't behave as a controller when paired with a PC. Someone needs to write that.
Okay, I think i grok that. not so much locked down as they never built the capability. Although they did use BT for initial pairing with some devices so a certain amount of functionality was there.

From that starting point, allowing it to be a normals BT controller should require a minimum of additional work, but I think they probably had a reasonable business case to not do that:

We know they tried to implement to minimize additional latency, so I’m guessing they really did not want people using these as a general BT controller in case the user inadvertently connected to Stadia in that mode, which would have increased latency and reduced user experience.

Being able to plug in via usb for general controller usage was fine because increased latency there was not going to be an issues.

I suppose it all makes sense.
If federation was a worthwhile goal (in one's mind) after "the bozo took over Twitter" then it is quite obvious nothing fundamentally has changed such that federation would have been a noble goal as a foil to previous Twitter management. Seriously - if more personal sovereignty is the goal then complaining about Twitter only after new management is admitting that the primary quality you don't like is the new management.

In reality the argument for federation is as I've already said - more personal sovereignty, less centralized, corruptible, overlord control. Twitter is certainly doing much better now than before, and that doesn't mean federated communities online still are not, in principle, superior.

If someone wants to use crypto to do justify sentiment like this, they'd be mocked here, but this is much better? It goes to show that people denouncing different approaches often aren't doing it because those approaches lack coherent justification, but because those approaches are related to aspects of technology some people don't like and don't care to examine.

There are plenty of reasons to lampoon the majority of approaches 'crypto' takes to 'solve' problems - that doesn't mean one shouldn't lampoon carefully and thoughtfully. Likewise, there is reason to justify federated platforms, but a dislike of Elon Musk's politics will not be the true driver.

2-5% match is pretty good imho. Any match percentage is basically doubling your savings. If the vesting is good, save up the the limit of match. With tech industry salaries higher 401k matches would just hit the max limit for 401k frequently. The vesting time is the cheap thing. Though once for me, the vesting was still valid if you left the company - it was just delayed.

I've been on KDE since coming back home to Linux a few years ago. A few thoughts:

* KDE feels like we just kept on iterating on the same UI since the early 90s. The functionality is very deep, but also intuitive. A lot of the depth comes from things like KIO, kparts and dbus, where we see a lot of functionality being reused from one app to the next. This means if you learn how Konsole works, when you fire up a terminal in other KDE apps, it works the same way.

* Customization is really a good thing. Everyone isn't learning to use a computer for the first time. Computers have been personal for almost 50 years now.

* Would really love kmail and the whole korganizer get a refresh. It's really good when it works, but needs some crashy-ness and jank removed. (BTW Akregator, the KDE-PIM RSS feed reader is still EXCELLENT)

Almost all EVs that are not Teslas, use blended regen with the brake pedal. When you press on the brakes, regen is used for light to moderate braking and the friction brakes only come into play on hard braking. Most EVs product little brake dust and their brakes last a long time due to this regen. Teslas are the anomaly here.

This is correct. The word "category" is being used in its colloquial English sense; this is not work on category theory.

I think I can see what you're getting at that you view this as a premature abstraction, but I don't think I'd call it over engineering. I'd call it a stylistic difference.

If `MAGIC` was sufficient to understand what the significance of the number was and `// explanation` was the citation or derivation, then I'd be fine with this, especially if there were a bunch of other constants with explanations with similar derivations or citations (eg a bunch of trig or constants from the same standard); then it'd be preserving a different sort of locality.

If `MAGIC` wasn't sufficient to capture the purpose of the constant & such a name wasn't readily available, so that you're always going to want to read `// explanation` (rather than only in the case you think the value is wrong), then I'd agree with you.

Concrete(ish) examples: if 67 terminated the Foo section of the Bar binary file format, even if we only used it once, I'd prefer to see END_OF_FOO rather than read a comment. Reading comments is context switching, at least for me. Names help me stay in the headspace of the programming language.

If 67 was the result of an ad-hoc calculation which only made sense in the context of this particular program (how many angels can dance on the head of an Acme brand pin executing our trademarked choreography) while, and so there wasn't a great name for that calculation, or at least not a name that would make sense unless you've already read the derivation, then I'd agree in that case.

That being said, I have absolutely seen overengineering or misengineering cause real problems.
WRT ICE vehicles no longer being manufactured: ain’t happening. Purchasing or licensing an ICE vehicle may become a reality in some (wealthy) countries. It is not happening in third-world countries, eg. Mexico. Simple fact is that the utilities infrastructure is not there.

Economies of scale likely plays a large role. Canada is a very large country (2nd largest by area) and very sparsely populated (same population as California). It simply costs more per unit to distribute food over such a vast area. The Northern climate and distance from growers also limits the availability of certain foods.
