in star trek, humans invent warp drive in a ship based on an old missile after ww3

absolutely correct… in australia, you respect the wildlife because it often has the ability to protect itself… its not like people die here every day from it

it has the potential to make a game actually saying “buy” somewhat more valuable, which perhaps could lead to a shift from “it’s easier to require online and there’s no down side” to “perhaps we should spend a little bit of time thinking about this to get 1% boost in sales”

rent implies a continued fee though - i’m not sure a once off fee to play a game that can be rendered useless at any time covers that? rent would be more like $10/mo rather than $100 for as long as the game is available

well i’m extrapolating here but since a foot is based on some random foot i can only assume we can do similar for other things. i’ve found a thermometer with fahrenheit on it and it seems it’s roughly 1mm to 1 degree, so that’s 113,000,000 degrees fahrenheit!

i feel like this makes it on par with eg newpipe right? since newpipe doesn’t have a server, so all requests are direct to youtube

people seem to be okay with the fingerprint trade-off… and a vpn (as in, an external vpn that invidious routes all traffic through) would help with that

Labour (with a u since it’s a proper noun from the UK) is named after trade unions; they’re the progressive party

does ARM still have better battery life when all of the machine code has to be translated from x86

afaik macos/rosetta is more efficient than native windows/x86, but that could be down to OS integration, or any number of confounding factors… i’d suggest though that x86 windows applications sometimes run better and more efficiently on alternative platforms, even with the translation layers - whether that’s down to the instruction set or a combination of factors
