imagine a bicycle chain between two sprockets, if you crank it foward and back like 1 inch, over and over again, you can clearly transmit power without the chain links going much of anywhere

Probably dedicated vector/tensor coprocessors these days - which don’t have to work with your monitor layout or desktop setup!

This is why i think subject tagging for communities makes a lot of sense. I want to remove anime, k-pop, video games, sports, region-specific, tv/movie, “anarchy”/“everything sucks” and plenty of other entire categories from my “All” feed, but blocking is a never-ending effort.

yes, it looks at a fine-grained clock, usually a cycle counter provided by the CPU for this purpose, to aggregate total on-cpu time for each process.

Because the consensus definition of “theft” doesn’t include it.

I think a lot of modern kernels are “tickless” - they don’t use a timeslice timer, and only context switch on IO interrupt, process yield, or when timeouts are specifically requested (including capping cpu-bound processes). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tickless_kernel

I think they limit your total ammo inventory in some Nordic country. You have to bring back casings to buy more ammo - solves two problems.

All of the highest population states are in the highest category, because the number isn’t represented per capita.

Also, this color scheme, wtf

“de facto” literally means that it wasn’t decided.

the S&P has averaged 10-12% return per year for over 60 years. So that, in itself, is not an indication of impending doom.

yeah, “the west” is going to invade 🙄

The IRS doesn’t know how much you owe. You may choose to file in different ways, have side gigs, spend money on deductible or credit-eligible expenses, or qualify for certain breaks. It’s your choice to depreciate or carry over certain items. Only you know that your spare room was rented for 5 months or the cost basis for the bitcoin you sold.

if you work one job and have no complications like that - the 1040EZ is what you’re asking for. But still not the government’s role to tell you or sign your name to it.

In 10MB ethernet days, they might have been directly driven by the signal on the wire. After that, they’re pretty much just “a flashing mechanism turned on when activity is present”

C# and the .net runtime are open source, So you could presumably just go fish the supporting code out.

I have thought for a while that the next “reddit” should be usenet with a client having advanced filtering, local scoring, etc. Maybe where the client reports to/reads from a shared spam database.

I dont mean a chat/conversation-specific community, I mean a collection of communities that are more people interacting than links being posted.

Especially for hobby, parenting, philosophy, politics, technical discussions, etc.

passkeys are way for your a token unlocked by your device’s biometric sensor to validate a request. biometric information is not sent to Google

Hell of a lot of electrons coming out and going in though

Now I think my client (Memmy) is wonky too, because it can’t follow any of these links! Will try the web UI.

More policy and culture than implementation. Rarely see pages of links to mass media sites on your average phpBB, though.
