Mostly a backup account for now, other @Deebsters are available.
I’m still deciding how much I agree or disagree with this. It’s true that they do cite books which you often can’t read online, but adding information backed up by a paywalled proof feels a bit “trust me bro”. E.g. I could find/create a site with an impossibly large paywall and no-one would realistically able to check my sources.
You’re absolutely right, I’ll edit my comment. Thanks for the catch.
Disgraceful, old-fashioned actions from the unnamed diving certifiers insurer - and, as the major diving insurance company (based in Malta) is DAN World Insurance Group SP, it’s clear that DAN puts their reputation above child safety.
(edited out misdirected finger pointing)
I would add that I’m not sure 30 days is “generous” given that 90 days is somewhat standard, but given that it took only two days for a lawyer’s threats to arrive that’s not too relevant.
I didn’t think it could have anything to do with DNS, but again I was wrong.
That user seems to spend most of their time on Lemmy “correcting” people’s spelling, including correctly spelt words that Americans spell differently. So, they’re either a troll or just insufferable.
This reminds me of when a couple of lost Doctor Who episodes were found but the owner was nervous to share them with the BBC because he feared confiscation and/or prosecution. I don’t know what happened with that story.
Yeah, I thought this was from /c/[email protected]
I also sometimes use the Kagi summaries and it’s definitely been wrong before. One time I asked what the term was for something in badminton and it came up with a different badminton term. When I looked at the cited source, it was a multiple choice quiz with the wrong term being the first answer.
It’s reliable that I still use it, although more often to quickly identify which search results are worth reading.
I’m so confused. Gentoo users are too lazy to run sudo emerge thing?
Hang on, what? You’re talking about the extra time (and electricity), or do you think it’s in any way difficult/error prone?
I guess we are more on the vim side in the editor wars, but only against our shared foes
There’s been a moratorium on executions in South Korea since 1998 (the last executions being in 1997), so this won’t happen - the alternative for a guilty conviction is life imprisonment.
I’d swap Arch and Gentoo - I think Gentoo should be on the precarious peak and Arch at a more accessible altitude.
If person 2 sees p1, they will avoid p1
gnuplot is not related to the GNU project or the FSF in any but the most peripheral sense. Our software was designed completely independently and the name “gnuplot” was actually a compromise. I wanted to call it “llamaplot” and Colin wanted to call it “nplot.” We agreed that “newplot” was acceptable but, we then discovered that there was an absolutely ghastly pascal program of that name that the Computer Science Dept. occasionally used. I decided that “gnuplot” would make a nice pun and after a fashion Colin agreed.

So another punny name that was picked when it was assumed it didn’t matter since no-one would really use it.
In the UK you can’t be more than 70 miles (113 kilometres) from the coast, and the coast is mostly beaches.
Also from the article:
If the worst happens and the dome is punctured, 2,000 tonnes of CO2 will enter the atmosphere. That’s equivalent to the emissions of about 15 round-trip flights between New York and London on a Boeing 777. “It’s negligible compared to the emissions of a coal plant,” Spadacini says. People will also need to stay back 70 meters or more until the air clears, he says.
I love Helix, and the default set of keybinds is great, although obviously customising them gets you closer to your ideal.
