Well, OP only specified that they'd been using Linux for about a decade; no mention of their laptops not being from the early 90s. :)

Whatever nebulous issues one or the other may or may not have had, my personal experience is that startpage (from my understanding, basically privacy'd google) provides higher quality search results than DDG (fmu, basically privacy'd bing).

Great operating system, that. Shame it lacks a text editor.

I think that's called grayjay.

Astronomers would notice immediately, as the stars would be in very wrong positions. The IAU is the primary reason why IT people have to hack around leap seconds.

There are people coming from Windows, which does not have dd.

What the vast majority of people would probably think of when they hear the word 'fire' is actually flames; flames are quite simply particles emitting light.

For an everyday example, take a campfire: The wood logs you see burning are at such a high temperature that they give off methanol (and other flammable chemicals), which is most of what's burning. Apart from the methanol being driven off of the wood, there will be other chemical compounds and/or larger clumps of more-or-less-burned wood that will be carried off. These larger clumps in particular, while very small, are nonetheless large and hot enough to start emitting light in the visual spectrum. This is essentially what a flame is: Particles emitting light.

Fire in and of itself is quite simply rapid oxidation in the presence of oxygen.

The above is, arguably, a gross oversimplification.

TLDR: Flames are particles, fire is combustion.

og vi æder allesammen maddingen.

Og det hjælper ikke at cirka alle medier har travlt med at sanewashe Muskolini og hans orangutang.

It's worse than that, the first safety inspection is after four years, not six.

It doesn’t matter.

It REALLY doesn’t matter.

Best way I saw it expressed: If you did something that was NOT a nazi salute, but other people perceived it as a nazi salute, you would IMMEDIATELY apologise and walk it back. Given that Muskolini has not done that, he did indeed do a nazi salute.

 

EU brings product liability rules in line with digital age and circular economy

Today [2024-10-10] the Council adopted a directive to update the EU’s civil liability law. The new liability rules better take into account that nowadays many products have digital features and that the economy is becoming increasingly circular.

 

For meget betalingsvæg, det gad jeg ikke: Der er ikke kommet et eneste høringssvar (kritisk eller anderledes) ift. opstilling af Danmarks største vindmølle på Thyborøn Havn, sandsynligvis fordi indbyggerne i Lemvig Kommune får lov at købe anparter i den.

TLDR: Vindmøller er ikke NIMBY, hvis folk får smidt penge ned i deres baghave.

 

Jeg har lige, af gammel vane, trykket Ctrl+Enter for at poste en kommentar, og det virkede satanvæltemig!

 
 

Som Oluf Sand ville have sagt (omend han nok bor omkring Husby), "Det e' bå' dæjli'!"

 

Tillykke til Grønland.
