I’ve had Fedora on several computers, and everything worked for quite a while while. Eventually though, things just began to break randomly - probably a sign of me not doing much maintenance.

The most common issue was Gnome Software center failing to update anything. I just ignored that app, and continued to upgrade through the CLI for a while. Eventually, I just got tired of that, and installed Debian on my HTPC.

Now I can finally treat that computer the way I want. Just install, watch videos, update when needed, and ignore the rest. I have another computer for satisfying my tinkering desires, so this one is just for the videos and very light browsing, but not much else. Therefore, Debian is the perfect distro for this kind of use.

Carbon Capture and Utilization = Capture the CO2, turn it into fuel, burn it and return to square one of the climate crisis.

Carbon Capture and Storage = Basically like digging up coal and burning it, but in reverse. The end result is less CO2 in the atmosphere and more carbon locked away underground.

There’s a word for that: jobby

As you said, it’s not healthy to turn every hobby into a jobby. The best thing about hobbies is the lack of urgency and technical criteria. The whole point is to do it for fun.

And I thought digiscoping was janky ghetto photography. This is just next level janky!

The cost of perfection is infinite.

This thing produces ethylene, so there’s a huge temptation to use it for CCU, instead of CCS. I guess you could still turn that into more stable forms, such as plastic, but don’t we already have too much of that.

Maybe one day plastic processing plants could use larvae to eat the waste. We’re already using microbes in this way, so why not extend the same idea to larger creatures.

LOL. Those 3 weeks must have been really exciting at Llama Group. I can only imagine how the conversion went when the engineers tried to explain what FOSS means and the CEO understood none of it.

But Google would much rather keep all of the data for themselves. If you could actually control what’s happening in your phone, it could interfere with Google’s main business model.

If you’re a software developer or an enthusiast, you’ll notice it immediately. You’ve been reading and hearing about the new release of the BestThingEver 3.14, and you’re totally hyped up about it. You rush to install BTE to experience how awesome it is only to find out that the Debian repos still have a BTE 2.0.5 and none of the cool new features everyone has been talking about for the last 6 months.

Oh, that didn’t sound familiar? If you can’t tell the difference between two versions of a particular application, Debian will be perfectly fine for you.

It is absolutely soul crushing. Here, have some flowers to cheer you up. 💐

May take a while, but you’ll be ok eventually.

But he did create lots of entertainment as a byproduct of all of this. In this regard, Trump is his worst competitor.

Is the decade long transition period really over?

It’s a tradition at this point. If you post an infographic about unix/linux system folders, you’re obliged to avoid all modern sources. Preferably, you would use material that is at least 20 years old.

If the system works and makes financial sense, then it could help with energy storage, which would be awesome.

The material appears to be cheap, but obviously you would need a lot of it. Storing meaningful amounts of hydrogen in anything other than a high pressure tank takes ridiculous amounts of space.

If this technology was applied at an industrial scale - and you should - a storage facility could be as large as an open pit mine. Large scale production of renewable energy already requires plenty of space, so many such facilities are already located in remote places. If you also add energy storage to the plan, you’ll just need even more space than initially expected, but that shouldn’t be a problem, right? I mean, you’re already building in the middle of nowhere, so there’s plenty of space.

It’s “>2000mg/kg”

To me, this says that they didn’t bother testing any doses higher than that. So, who knows how much you really need to ingest to see an effect. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

That value also seems pretty reasonable, since who would replace the milk of their morning cereal with olive oil.

Humans aren’t always very good at that, and LLMs were trained on stuff written by humans, so here we are.

An LLM needs to evaluate and modify the preliminary output before actually sending it. In the context of a human mind that’s called thinking before opening your mouth.
