FTFY

I’m not quite sure whether we’re forbidden to put stickers on our work laptops, but almost everybody does. How else am I supposed to recognise mine after leaving it in a meeting room with a few others and coming back a while later?

It’s more commonly called ternary.

That’s a somewhat misleading headline. They are developing it. The way it’s written, you’d think they’ve already done it

He’s a secret stooge of the environmentalist movement and this is his endgame to kill the internal combustion engine. Wake up, sheeple!

They misspelled Käsekuchen.

It’s my understanding that all mainstream Christians believe that God is omniscient, and therefore knows the future in complete detail, because if he didn’t know today what your were going to have for lunch tomorrow, that would be something that he didn’t know, and therefore a limit to his omniscience.

Orban would have lost without his help.

My 80 year old mother switched to Linux this year and she’s managing just fine.

That sounds like something that an envoy of Sauron would say. Does Colby really think he’s one of the good guys?

That’s the cool thing about git. You can just create a blank codeberg repo and then do:

git remote add codeberg <URL>
git push codeberg --mirror

Of course, this won’t include issues and other GitHub specific stuff, but it’s much more robust than most other tools.

If Linus had only ever created git, he’d still have his place high up in the programmer’s pantheon.

Calling your political opponents subhuman comes from the fascist playbook. I wouldn’t go there.

Investigators say guides used a range of methods to force helicopter evacuations, including faking medical emergencies and lacing food with large amounts of baking powder to stimulate gastric distress commonly associated with altitude sickness. Others were given medications with excessive amounts of water to trigger symptoms.

After trekkers reported nausea, dizziness or body aches, they were advised to descend and agree to costly emergency helicopter evacuations. Authorities said operators then used forged medical and flight documents to claim costs from international travel insurers.

Randy George is kind of an upgrade from curious George.

They’re not at all the same people. We don’t really have strong evidence of writing from the Nuragic civilisation, but the Etruscans left plenty of written evidence and their language was probably not even Indo European. Then there were invasions by the Gauls and the Latins, who built the Roman Empire, but they were taken over by Germanic peoples, who partially integrated. Waves and waves of people speaking different languages, with different religions and customs.

You say that modern English have always been there, but again, after the Celts got taken over by the Romans, there was a long period of Roman rule, with a lot of cultural and ethnic mixing. Then came the Saxons, again a people with completely different language and customs. This was a large mixing of populations and a huge shift in culture. Then there was an invasion of Vikings that was so significant that a huge part of east England was called the Danelaw, because it was under Danish control. You still see that in place names and surnames. Then in 1066 the Norman French came, again massively changing the culture, the language and the political structures.

It’s the same story all over Europe. Wave after wave of invasion, displacement and cultural shift and mixing.

Most countries have existed since before written time, evolving into what they are now.

I can’t see a sense in which this is true.

Before written time, none of the countries of Europe or Asia or Africa existed in anything remotely close to their current identity.

In his 1965 autobiography (co-written with MacKinlay Kantor), LeMay is quoted as saying his response to North Vietnam would be to demand that "they’ve got to draw in their horns and stop their aggression, or we’re going to bomb them back into the Stone Age.

Is that really a quote that you want to lean on, Donny? Not exactly a great omen.

But because “AI” sells newspapers, they lead with that.

So name a cryptocurrency that doesn’t have a scalability issue, and that could handle the volumes of transactions that the global credit card payment processors do.
