And a single monitor? 2010?

It’s closer to $6.11. I do math :)

Unlikely to get locked-in and moving this quickly

There is an itch.io game inspired by it! Hated by Mastercard and VISA for minor gore.

Pretty sure most of Windows isn’t coded at the HQ, either

Same here, I wonder why SVT is not included with ffmpeg’s standard compile flags. Licencing?

The era of decent full HD movies on CD has come, finally a use for all my CD-R spindles!

Just make sure to destroy the original when scanning it

I have a free 1 MiB/day plan. I only pay €8/year to top up the prepaid SIM. This would be AMAZING in 2005 but now the number of webpages that work on my 2G feature phone via Opera Mini is shrinking. Not to mention, there is no privacy because of the transcoding server. A stock-firmware 4G smartphone would eat through this data in a minute just with background apps calling home.

With the right software (rooted Android, custom clients, transcoding server at home) one could theoretically get all day of use of text- and sparsely image-based services such as email, RSS, SSH, timetables, Lemmy… I’d need at least a data blocker for backhround apps, a kiB meter in the notification bar and a confirmation pop-up for every transaction above 10 kiB (this can be estimated by content length).

They are regional indicators, groups (usually pairs) form the flags, which are in fact multiple characters but behave like a single glyph in a text editor. You can input them and other Unicode “fonts” using the Irregular Expressions keyboard. Their rendering differs wildly but they are usually small caps, sometimes in boxes (dotted or blue) or bold/filled blue themselves.

For people using Lemmy clients that only show usernames, @Kolanaki@pawb.social’s display name is “🇰 🌀 🇱 🇦 🇳 🇦 🇰 🇮”. Without spaces nor zero-width non-joiners, the name becomes “🇰🌀🇱🇦🇳🇦🇰🇮” (LAos, NAmibia, KIribati) - you can copy the name into an editor, delete the spaces yourself and see the flags appear. I’d be really surprised if any automatically inserted ZWNJs.

Good luck trying to break through the mobile cartels.

And the author wrongly said

PD will not negotiate down to 1W power levels

The correct way ro ask for 0.8 W (5 V, 0.16 A) is to request 5 volts, any current. Doesn’t matter if the charger is capable of 500 mA (legacy USB), 1 A or 3.1 A. The PD standard can accomodate the watch, it’s just that the watch lacks active electronics that are required to talk to the charger (and even the supplied C-C cable is non-compliant by being power-only).

Edit: apparently PD allows 0.1A steps between 0.1 A and 3 A for 5 volts so it’s technically possible for a PD charger to deny power to the watch if it’s VERY underpowered and can’t even put out 1 W. Still, it’s the watch’s fault for lacking correct PD implementation.

That’s just 6 roles per person!

The vertical axis goes below the plane too!

The API is still available in dev mode, just obtain the client ID and secret to authenticate the app. I used shreddit this way, it was more thorough than PowerDeleteSuite when I gave it the GDPR checkout. Both tools produce a log so you can refer to the posts/comments later.

Wie mit Gothik?

I think a healthy body could survive a single instantaneous disappearance of current mRNA, as long as the mechanisms to create more mRNA remain functional. All cells would just respond to new conditions more slowly and less effectively for a few minutes to hours, leaving the body vulnerable to disbalancing conditions such as infections. Some cells would die but most of them can be replaced in days.

On the other hand, deleting DNA (and thus preventing the creation of RNA) cannot be survived. A great exploration of such scenario is in the No More DNA chapter in What If? by Randall Munroe: the syptoms would be like eating an Amanita mushroom such as the “Destroying Angel”, whose amatoxin prevents DNA transcription, or acute gamma irradiation. The patient is fine for a few hours (or less with a theoretical DNA wipe), then start exhibiting cholera-like symptoms (vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea), then they start to feel better. However, at that point, since cells can’t divide, immune system collapse or systemwide organ failure is inevitable.
