It was an enjoyable game overall but the ending was really disappointing. Just a gauntlet of the same fights you’ve been doing all game. It feels like it’s building up to something big, but it just ends with you doing a victory lap of yet another gauntlet against severely underleveled enemies.

Actually, the map the flat earthers seem to use the most is the polar azimuthal equidistant projection (as in the UN logo). Trips not involving the southern hemisphere get distorted much less.

Nightly has this so I assume it will come to Firefox sooner or later.

I guess this is really a bug in KDE/Plasma’s themes, then? The window controls in the GTK3 theme should have the same look as the window controls in the icon theme.

They now use a zygote process like Chrome does. When a new process is needed, the zygote just forks.

In the old version, the main process used a classic UNIX fork+exec of the browser executable instead, which could start an incompatible process if the executable has been replaced.

With the zygote process, all code and data files are preopened, so replacing or deleting them does not affect the running Firefox.

As another effect, skipping the exec makes process creation faster…

Alphabetical ordering, I assume. Just not the right alphabet.

A recent Technology Connections video mentioned people are configuring chargers to 48 A when they’re using 14-50 “50 A” sockets that are really designed for 40 A continuous current. Or they’re using aluminum wiring without corrosion protection, or not abrading the oxide layer.

Kelvin decided that we should use a scale based on what atoms feel like is the the full range of sensible temperatures, with that range set to 0 through NaN (exception thrown).

There’s actually a theoretical maximum temperature.

The mathematically perfect scale goes from zero to one T_P.

If ever Firefox actually starts to disgust me and not just disappoint me, I’ll stop maintaining it and look at forks.

But it won’t be Librewolf, because the default settings are just a cargo-cult of self-contradictory “privacy enhancements” without any sane threat model that make the browsing experience much worse for little gain.

My mother would have trouble using a small phone at its default display scale. Large text, small screens and poorly designed UIs do not mix.

I think unreported employment is being handled by customs and the tax administration, not the police.

Also, migrants include naturalized citizens and people with permission to work.

In Germany:

I don’t remember ever seeing “combined lights” with single red or yellow lamps and multiple greens. Level crossings often have only red and yellow lights, missing green.

Traffic lights are positioned at the entrances to intersections, not the exits. They also come with backup signs (stop sign, yield sign, etc.) for when the lights are disabled or defective. Working traffic lights override these signs.

Solid green also means an unprotected left turn that must yield to oncoming traffic.

A green arrow traffic light can override a solid red to give you a protected turn. A green right arrow on a sign gives you an unprotected right turn on a red. Without this, you cannot turn right on a red.

Flashing yellow means ‘caution’ in general and is usually used on auxiliary lights to warn about crossing pedestrians after a turn, who have right of way. When the main traffic lights are flashing yellow, they’re disabled or defective.

I remember that the city I grew up in, long ago, used to disable many traffic lights at night. Their website claims that “due to the large number of visually impaired and blind citizens, the traffic lights at the most important traffic junctions are kept in operation at night”, so I guess this still continues. The village I’m living in these days has no traffic lights at all.

(Also: be careful, because the pineapple is just as interested in eating you as you are in eating it.)

Are you talking about the bromelain? It rapidly makes milk and milk products bitter and also irritates the mouth.

It’s about adding API to Vulkan for access to the hardware encoding units that you’re complaining about.

Cross-platform, I guess. However, the only platform of commercial interest (and that I know of) that offers Vulkan as the primary, supported API is Android.

It’s neither. There are no voxels. Maybe “polygon creatures”.

Well, Wikipedia claims

The Earth has an internal heat content of 10³¹ joules (3×10¹⁵ TWh), About 20% of this is residual heat from planetary accretion; the remainder is attributed to past and current radioactive decay of naturally occurring isotopes.

In that sense, it’s the only renewable energy source we have that’s not indirectly powered by the sun. It’s most similar to (proper) nuclear power, but the latter isn’t “renewable” because it requires digging up fuel from the crust.

Isn’t geothermal mostly nuclear power?

Only iPads.

It does. The Signal app for Android does not support being a secondary device. It must be the primary device with a phone number.

In addition, whatever Play Store settings they use excluded all of our tablets, even the one that had a SIM. Manually installing the APK worked for this case, but that didn’t really solve our problem.
