The awkward question is how many hours would you have to work to make $325. Because at minimum wage, that's 20. For others, that's ten, and for others, that's one. For a billionaire, they're making that much, passively, in minutes. $325/month for a hobby which gives joy, and meaning, and makes life worth living, vs rent?

I think a used market exchange where someone had to buy each product is a different scale from one buyer who uploads infinite copies to the internet.

It's a tragedy of the commons. Not a commons of the product tho, of the ability to keep the creations flowing.
One thing I've always wished Microsoft would do with every version of Flight Simulator but especially this one is have an "Arcade flying" mode.

I want to see the hyper-realistic rendered world in as high resolution as possible.

I want to fly around the planet.

But I don't want to be limited to the detailed specifics (and speeds!) of real life planes.

Why can't we have a mode to make a plane as easy to fly as it is in GTA5. Or "superman" mode where I don't even have a plane, and I can just move around at (almost) any speed [i'm sure rendering would become a problem]
I mean if sschueler wants to chime in to clarify they can. But idk if it's worth taking seriously something that is obviously some social media bait. It sounded to me like they were genuinely aggrieved by getting accused of "looking at" someone but ok.
You don’t have “expensive hobbies.”
You have hobbies that you feel are expensive.

There will be people who perceive your hobbies as quaint and austere, and there will be people who think you’re being outrageously opulent.

There is no objective “my hobbies are expensive. Their hobbies are outrageous.”

It is evident that you misunderstood what I wrote. Please read it again.

Some comments:

-I am not equating ME with fatigue in general;

-The fatigue that I say is not uncommon in autistic people is "I can't get out of bed for a day after making a phone call" kind of fatigue;

-I made no judgement in my comment, period (side note: the phrase "you have not the slightest clue" is a judgement, however).

To re-iterate, my point was that:

- There are significant overlaps between autism and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS/ME) [1], in both symptoms and comorbidities;

- Autistic people are more likely to experience CFS/ME [2];

- What helps autistic people with fatigue is not unlikely to help CFS/ME fatigue, and vice versa (follows from the above two).

Both of those points are scientifically supported. Please see [1][2], from which the above statements are literal quotes.

The links between autism and CFS/ME are subject of ongoing active research.

I ask you to read this (and the previous) comment, read the two references below, and come back here and comment on what you concluded.

You realize "I won't tell you the rules" is an asshole move in and of itself, right?

There's 8 billion people on this planet, from hundreds of different cultures. Everyone has different intuitions, different values, different cultural expectations.

I'm not saying the rules have to be hard rules or anything. But if you can't even articulate the basic shape of the rules, then it's really 100% on you when people don't follow the magic ideas in your head.

Ive honestly considered the same thing. Wouldnt it be nice to make a few tailored "masters" and then just make your own shirts off those. Perfect fit everytime time.

It's just the senseless waste of the modern world. Like dry laundry soap, why cant i just bring my glass jar to the grocery store, tar it, refill from a bulk bin. Why do we have to make millions of plastic containers, so pointless. Ive only been to one grocery store in my life where this was possible.

Im sick of senseless plastic everywhere. My personal theory is our biggest sources of plastic ingestion is: clothing made of plastic slowly wearing away and inhaling treadwear from car tires on the road.

There are a lot of comments on here that assume Linux is only for servers. But just recently there was a post on HN indicating Linux will likely hit 5% desktop share for the first time this year. That's a lot of people on Linux - and a far higher percentage of people using Linux on the desktop will not know anything about this. Sane defaults should not be a luxury. Of course people should know to wear their seatbelts, but seatbelt alarms are still a very good thing.

Yes, lots of behavior should be prohibited. Specifically when they cause direct and indisputable harm to another person.

I think raw milk should be legal, and the labeling requirement should depend on the actual risk level, not just a vague possibility.

rhino horn is a tricky one. Poaching animals is a form of stealing, so it is clearly illegal. Off the cuff, I think selling recently harvested rhino horn should be legal but required to have evidence that it was not poached.
This changes nothing, other than making companies replace all instances of "buy" with "add to account".

What I'm more interested in are laws against "changing the experience". You force a mandatory update that significantly changes the product in a way that I don't like (removing features or cramming ads into a device I paid for), I should have the option to revert to the original as-bought configuration, or get a complete refund.
DPI systems in Turkey weren't even checking QUIC packets when I was there, let alone ECH. But, browsers usually start with TCP first to negotiate QUIC support, which prevented bypass of web blocks. If you could force your browser to establish connection directly using QUIC, you could bypass all the blocks. That was last year though. Not sure about the current situation.

Right there with you.

But hey, it's not all bad. We might be the last generation in living memory, for a while at least, who could ever say "you had to be there" and mean it.

And for all it pangs our hearts to see our ephemera tend to dust, we also I think are, of any human generation to date, probably best able to hope that the things we really love from our time will be preserved. (I hope that's a distinction we don't end up holding on to...)

In just the last little while I've been getting to see that peculiarly ingenuous sort of joy again, as someone half my age discovers a show I first binged 25 years ago from a friend's handmade VHS dubs.

That's a show that makes a habit of trying to tell the audience things they'll hope never to forget. It does so wonderfully. It's a story I cherish, and if someone half my age will perforce love it at least somewhat differently from how I do - so what? That the story remain loved is enough.

I dunno if any of that's any use to you, but share it in the hope it'll do you the same small good it did me, thinking on this of a quiet evening.
Fair! Upvoted.

I guess I'm not likely to type that into the shell, or if I do, I then tab-complete to expand it.

I could definitely see myself using that in a shell script, though. I tend to do validity checks there:

if ! [ -d "$TSTDIR" ]; echo "$TSTDIR not found, stupid" >&2; exit 1; fi

but that's kind of irrelevant, since if I need it to exist then I won't be removing it. Plus, I could totally see myself doing

if [ -d "$TESTDIR" ]; then
rm -rf "$TSTDIR"/etc
fi

What is "Titan" in this context?
This reminded me of a friend who has a very serious form of cancer. His monitor died, so I decided to give him one as a gift, since he spends all his time at home doing nothing.

I went with my girlfriend to deliver it and I reminded he used to tape and catalog F1 races and other stuff. I asked if he was watching one of these types and he proceeded to open a large cabinet and give us a tour of his meticulously catalogued and tagged 70's and 80's porn collection.
Or to put it another way:

Not just a male thing! [1]

It might be the case that men are more likely to be collectors/hoarders in general but there definitely are women who partake. I will also say that the type of thing being collected matters. Go to an estate sale for a woman (especially one born before 1960) and you may see collections of dolls, tea services, certain types of paintings, etc.

I only read the first part of the article, but having dealt with Drive API scopes and their issues previously, I feel there is just a major misunderstanding here.

The "fully open" Drive API read/write scopes should be highly restricted by default (because they essentially give you access to a user's entire drive), and these are the ones that Google added much more stringent security requirements a couple years ago, e.g. requiring a security audit.

However, there is also a much less sensitive Drive API scope, 'drive.file', which is non-sensitive. It lets an app read and write only files the app owns (or read files a user picks through the file picker control).

Thus, I don't understand why the ia.net app would require more than the drive.file scope. I have no doubt that Google's messaging wasn't clear on the transition process when they first created drive.file scope (and I personally wasted a ton of time with bugs in Google's own file picker when using that scope), but it is a much better solution.
Those are missing many books because they only work at the whim of the publishers. Also they cost extra money to run which further limits them.
except there is a limit because each drive holds a limited amount of data because it is physical media. And you can argue cloud storage but they have a limit as well as price.
Are you trying to suggest that TfL are using are a cyber attack as cover to permanently cancel Oval?

Also, once again you seemed have forgotten that COVID happened 2020-2022. Are you also trying to seriously suggest that TfL pausing all non-essential services and projects during a pandemic was a nefarious act to avoid rolling out project Oval, and by extension avoid having to support railcards on contactless transactions?

You honestly don’t seem to have any real grasp of how long project like Oval actually take to implement. A large transport project overrunning deadlines by a few years is hardly unusual. It’s certainly no evidence of some grand conspiracy to avoid supporting railcards (which again, TfL are under no obligation to support anyway).
>Books should be free for all

yes certainly, thank your local library.. your country has them?

Correct. Markets function on the desires humans act on. They dont optimize for how humans "should" act but dont.

I think there is far more moral hazard in having the government overrule the preferences people act on and enforce the solution they think people should select.

Some people make mistakes. People learn and society learns. Markets take time to search for and find equilibrium.

Preventing markets which are out of equilibrium from progressing towards equilibrium often triggers a cascade of secondary problems.

According to the same link you shared, enough people own second homes that 61% of the population has access to a friend or relatives home. That feels pretty normalized (compared to here in the US, where I live in a high-income area and only know one person with a second home (and it's a permanent tent))
My parents have this marvelous talent for dressing down, as casual as possible, even at church; they never go to formal events or dressy galas; my father never wears a suit or ties a tie, he lives in sweatshirts and short-sleeved polos at best. Mom surprises me sometimes at Christmas, when she dons a skirt!

They also revel in drab, shabby clothing. It's respectable, but the colors are muted, the styles are ordinary, and there are no designer labels. Mom washes everything over and over and over. The garments become threadbare, faded, but very very clean and presentable.

This belies their means and middle-class existence, and that's very Franciscan of them. Unfortunately, they raised a kid who could never settle for that.

Going to church, our pastor required a strict dress code for ministers, and so I worked tirelessly to live up to that, improve my hygiene and appearance, and cultivate some interest in men's couture, to the point of subscribing to some YouTube channels. I purchased a brand-new tuxedo in 2015. I amassed a collection of ties, some retail and some thrifty ones. I have a black 3-piece suit for funerals, if I lose weight (especially my own funeral.) Etc.

I also found that dressing appropriately for every other occasion was critical. So I doffed my shabby imprinted tee-shirts, and put some intentionality into my wardrobe.

I donated all kinds of stuff to thrift stores. I hope they were happy with very clean men's clothing in excellent condition. Once, I lost about 90 pounds and donated all the "fat clothes", which was a fatal error when I gained it 100 pounds back.

Even while donating some garments, I also destroyed some that were inappropriate or humiliating, that others had given me, that did not fit my personality. I applied intentionality to the very brands of underwear and outerwear and I went through about 3 cycles of destroying the old stuff, before I was satisfied and comfortable with the logos I was putting on. (I mostly converged on Gildan, Columbia, New Balance and Adidas, in case you're wondering.)

I've also been accessorizing with hats, gloves, bags. I really like having clean, pressed neat clothing to wear. Unfortunately, all this upscaling has gotten noticed. People on the streets and on the bus will notice rich guys in a hot minute. So now I get panhandled, and I get verbally abused, and I get disrespected at every turn, because I must be a privileged rich white cis-hetero man.

It's quite sad. I sort of want to rebuild an inventory of shabby, wrinkled, torn clothing that I can wear and go slumming. It wouldn't fool anyone, though.

I’m more surprised by the seemingly lack of longevity of what he buys than by the costs.

442 euros is two pairs of dress shoes or one pair of good boots. I don’t think you can buy anything other than sneakers for £50.

My own dresser is not that far removed from his regarding to its content (I have far less blazers, don’t wear hoodies and have more suits) but I think I cycle each piece far less than he does because my annual closing budget is probably less than half his despite per unit costs in the same range.

But to be honest it’s not hard to blow though 3000€ of clothing if you replace a lot at the same time. An ok suit costs around 500€. You can double that easily if you want something fancy and you need at least three if you wear them daily. A coat will set you back between 200€ and 500€ depending of the material. A shirt is 70€-80€, dress shoes 250€. Throw in some accessories like belts or god forbids a watch and you are there. It adds up quite fast.
> Someone once said their goal is to have a wardrobe with nothing but favorite clothes. That makes sense not only from a value perspective, but in light of my data, that may also be the best alternative in terms of cost performance.

My clothes-buying strategy has settled on "if it doesn't look great on me in the fitting room then it doesn't come home with me". Which is pretty similar. You can still end up with things that rarely get worn for other reasons but it's a good filter.

Talk to the Internet Archive. They don't just take internet stuff.

If you go to their web page that describes what they do and do not accept, don't go by that. It can be, and has been, wrong in the past including the recent past (this year).

Instead, try to get in touch with them by email. They might accept these as a donation.

There's no promise they will digitize it immediately, or even ever. But they might take it and then there will at least be a potential path to digitization.
