A few years back, I was speaking to a roommate. I complained that the (then) new Star Trek had forced diversity. He immediately shut me down, “Star Trek has ALWAYS been like that”. He was a huge fan of Star Trek
Decentralise everything!

What is this, pre-pre-emptive strike?
It is surprising and Im sure it reduced the performance, but plastic still conducts heat and sounds like it was a thermoplastic and it didn’t melt.


It looks like the person with his hands up was trying to help the cop that fell off his bike. The second it looks like he is touching that cop some other cops start attacking him mercilessly and without much thought. The bike cop seems to be putting himself in that situation and being violent with protesters for no clear reason.
Does that seem to be the case?
Not relevant to whats being discussed. I wish rather than delete the comment, mods are able to flag it as AI and users can choose whether to see AI posts or not.
Random thought.


You prefer GPL?


I think it is more specifically electric planes as large as commercial airline passenger planes are impossible. It has a lot to do with battery mass to energy content ratio. Kerosine is about 46.4 MJ (megajoules) per kilogram. Lithium-air batteries, for example, only have about 6.12 MJ/kg.
So, that means you need 7 times as much battery (in mass) to have the same energy content of kerosine fuel. Naively, we can maybe say that means electric planes only have 1/6 of the range of an equivalent kerosine plane.[^]
Interestingly, lithium-air batteries theoretically have the largest possible energy density for any battery at 40.1 MJ/kg.
^ The calculations are really basic and probably only slightly reflect reality (since there are many other important factors. For example, Hydrogen has a lot more energy per kilogram than kerosine, but because it is much less dense, it has much less energy per m^3 than kerosine. This has made hydrogen gas very impractical for either internal-combustion engines, or planes), but I think it gives an idea of what the problem is.


It works very well for me. My evidence that it is private is that I download plenty (more than 1 TB per month) and I never get a copyright notice from my ISP. When I torrent non-privately I get plenty of copyright notices, sometimes several times for the same torrent.
It does have, however, some major performance issues. It can be very slow, and it can use up a lot of RAM and a lot of CPU. Its internal database, which saves state of downloads, frequently gets corrupted at which point it has to be re-generated, meaning the list of torrents (not the downloads) is lost. It can be quite a bit slower than other torrent downloaders, and sometimes torrents stall for a while as it waits to prepare the network, especially at start-up.
It’s been getting a lot better though with every update, which is quite frequent.
Not gravy. Op was talkng about gravy tea.


Even if it didn’t go to bluesky.app first before the actual link, clicks on it can still be made to be tracked. It’s trivial to do it much more discreetly.
It is definitely tracked, but I would guess that turning it into a bluesky link has other uses, not all nefarious, such as: link previews, caching, dealing with dead links.


Yes and no, in my opinion. Attackers can keep a list of all compromised passwords, and try it even for accoints that may not be associated. This is a much smaller search space than to go through every possible password of length <= 32 (for example).


Youre both saying the same thing!
“A russian VPN is blocked” is what you showed. From that, we can infer that probably all Russian ip’s are blocked.


Except for 0, 1, 2, 3.
Integers are necessarily irrational because π is transcendental and not an algebraic number.


There are a few quite good alternatives, like codeberg.org and gitlab. But, im not really disagreeing. Perhaps out of familiarity, GitHub UI/Features is still my favorite.


I agree that that’s useful information. I wonder though, if it is that useful, if Lemmy or the Lemmy app does that automatically?
I think the post was meant to be shitpost. In any case, youre absolutely right.
