Do you believe Luigi Mangione killed Bryan Johnson?

Do I think he’s more likely than not the killer? Yes. Do I think that “beyond a reasonable doubt”? No, BUT I haven’t spent as much time studying the facts of the case as I hope each juror has.

Can he be found guilty with the evidence against him?

Of course. With the right frame job, my cat could be found guilty of the murder.

We improved our tracking algorithms to more accurately monitor your every move.

We found an unpatched microphone exploit that let’s us listen in on all of your conversations.

Is your favorite color purple?

This is the Spotify/Apple Music/etc model and the reason why music piracy is practically dead (yes, I know there are a few sites still going).

These services are doing their best to find ways to push people back to piracy but for now they keep it at bay through competition to provide better service.

If there was a catchall video streaming service where all publishers released and got a cut of their plays it would be game over for piracy. Fortunately that’ll never happen.

With 99+% of hashes matching?

Whatever the issue, theres good odds that the pieces with matching hashes are perfectly fine and the <1% of pieces with errors OPs bittorrent client can and did replace, so now the files are identical to source and good to go!

If you checked the torrent file and it’s showing 99+% that means you almost certainly have the right file but some minute piece of metadata is off. Good news is now you only have to snag ~1% of that file from the seeders that pop in an out and you’ll be set.

Looks like exactly the kind of thing I’ve been looking for - a clean and easy to use SSH manager!

One question: how are SSH credentials stored? Is there any option for password protection?

And one feature request: as a long time MobaXterm user on Windows, one feature I’ve yet to see in a Linux SSH utility is the “multi-execution” mode which let’s you send commands to multiple terminals at once.

Pizza’s core implementation is in C though. It’s just a fancy way to call C libraries.

Today I learned pepperoni is a C library.

Option 1: Fried Green Tomatoes.

Option 2: Let them ripen - tomatoes can ripen off the vine pretty well, a lot of people recommend harvesting them early to reduce chances of pests beating you to the punch.

LMAO at the irony of YouTube taking a stand against bot scraping as if that isn’t Google’s entire business model.

Can we just not do both? Thanks.

Also, alternatives to flying include cars ($$$ + muuuch slower + only slightly less bad) and public transit (requires collective buy-in and can’t happen overnight).

Most people can just drop meat on a whim, but I can’t just magic a US High-Speed Rail network into existence. I’ll continue to support the CA HSR with my vote and my tax dollars, and continue to take my rare vacations to locations within driving distance, but these aren’t really equivalent changes.

There is a much more robust set of existing alternatives to meat than there is to flying, at least in the US.

A lot of shaky stuff in here that has a long way to go before it makes it out of the lab.

3.5 cubic meters of material ought to be enough to make quite a comfy house

OP, a 3.5 m-wide cube is not 3.5 cubic meters. That’s the size of a decently large shed… Of solid concrete.

would have enough capacity to store about 10 kilowatt-hours of energy, which is considered the average daily electricity usage for a household

No mention in the article about round trip efficiency, self-discharge rates / storage duration, etc.

Storing 10 kWh doesn’t mean much if it loses much of that to internal losses, leakage into the environment, etc., before you can use it.

Capacitors generally tend to be designed to store very little energy but can charge/discharge repeatedly at a high rate. Is this designed to discharge quickly? If so, what happens if someone touches the giant Borg cube in your yard?

Concrete is also prone to cracking, which last I checked, is not good for electronics.

That said, this is an interesting concept, and if it can perform at a useful level / scale, I could see industrial uses for large systems with high peak loads / energy recovery / regenerative braking, as a cost effective way to smooth grid loads, but probably wouldn’t expect to see it in use at people’s homes for a loooong time.

Less “you can make a super capacitor at home”, more “innovative material uses may one day make super capacitors more cost effective for certain applications, if it can be scaled out of a lab”

F-Droid 2.37.2.

But also it’s been a feature for like 6 months.

“A sustainable diet leaves room for 2 chicken breasts a week”

(Really, 2 servings of fish / poultry per week. No red meat.)

The average person outside of developing nations vastly outpaces this consumption rate.

The small, single-digit percent of the population that’s vegetarian/vegan, as well as people who are experiencing food insecurity and do not have consistent access to meat are ahead of the curve from a sustainability perspective.

When 95+% of people who have the means to dictate their meal choices do not achieve the target reduction it’s generally safe to say everyone who eats meat needs to cut back.

In Voyager, tap a username to view someone’s profile, then 3-dot menu > edit tag

Unrelated - tagging in Voyager is really handy!

I recommend everyone give it a try, helps you identify, say, people who might be talking a big contrarian game without providing any of their own peer reviewed sources to back themselves up. Very interesting feature.

TIL only children develop gambling addictions.

Yes and no. Depending on your client I believe you can tweak the settings to avoid slow seeders if others are available (especially if you have a set max connections per torrent)

I think SD card failure rates are way overblown if you’re buying from reputable manufacturers (Sandisk, Samsung). I’m sure they do occasionally fail, but I’ve never experienced one.

You’re right, for really intensive tasks the costs can climb, but I see people asking for ideas for what to do with a junk laptop and the top suggestion is always something like pi-hole or a bookmark manager that could run on a potato.

Like with most things in life, it depends.
