It is a relief that there are no continental drift deniers.

Also punched cards had around 80 columns, which put a hard limit on the number of characters per line.

If it is a pay what you want model I am all for it. This would be similar to how elementary OS st

The problem with a fixed price is you have to always calibrate it according to the economy of the user's geolocation. What is cheap for a person from a developed world may be unaffordable for a third world county.

The follow up question would be the opposing force which keeps them in orbit(als)? This balance of force was called the planetary model which has this shortcoming that electrons might fall into the nucleus.

If electrons actually followed such a trajectory, all atoms would act is miniature broadcasting stations. Moreover, the radiated energy would come from the kinetic energy of the orbiting electron; as this energy gets radiated away, there is less centrifugal force to oppose the attractive force due to the nucleus. The electron would quickly fall into the nucleus, following a trajectory that became known as the "death spiral of the electron". According to classical physics, no atom based on this model could exist for more than a brief fraction of a second.

I am trying to recall what kind of forces enable the orbitals of electrons according to Quantum Mechanics.

What I understand is Sheikh Hasina was turning into an authoritarian leader, having ruled from 1996-2001 and then from 2009 onwards. A combined 20 years in total!

She did some good things

In power, she won admiration for stabilising the country, tackling jihadist groups and growing the economy, largely through the garment manufacturing boom. The rate of extreme poverty halved.

some bad

But her rule became increasingly oppressive, with extrajudicial killings and the jailing of political opponents and journalists. There was growing anger about corruption, especially as the economy foundered and living costs soared in the wake of the pandemic.

and really sketchy things

With youth unemployment at 40%, the reintroduction of government job quotas for descendants of those who fought in the Bangladesh independence war in 1971 – seen as a bung to party supporters – brought students out in protest.

It is like the worst sequel to The Martian.

Fight back? O rly?

Yes and the cruel part is... Pterosaurs are not Dinosaurs!

I started with kickstart.nvim. It was good to understand Lua and how neovim works. Now following LazyVim for Ambitious Developers because distros good, less breakage.

The flagship communities are quite alive, but the niche communities have not really taken off. I am talking from both the absence of such communities, and my experience trying to migrate !fluidmechanics. The subreddit has around 10k humans (or bots).

Harder. Stronger. Faster.

Depends on the culture and time if you ask me.

I read Stephen Hawking and I was like, "sure, maybe it helps with the ALS and see the universe".

G.P.U.

Without units or context:

Historian: Yeah the 1940s were bad. Meteorologist: 40 degrees is piping hot indeed.

While you cannot uninstall it, you should be able to disable Google Assistant and the Google app. That should cripple its access to such features.

Hazardous CO2?

This will be the headline a month later:

Cara's monthly active users down to a few thousands. Here's why.

I don't get it. Did Socrates discuss gender identity in his works?

It is all AI hype isn't it?

Only to realise later it was the imposter syndrome or Dunning-Kruger effect kicking in.

Physics girl did a great video on this.

Stranger Things

What is dead may never die.

Time to let go, NASA. We had a good run. She needs to move on to another Solar System.

Strange argument... how does that prevent checks versus Windows 7, 8 and 1* all of which would be less than 9.

They presumed it is gonna be the next Nolan movie.

Taxes! But different. This channel is very informative:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEdx1BIb1x0

The first Episode of Sabrina Live! is called How the Rich Don't Pay Taxes. All the rich need to do is use three simple steps: "Buy, Borrow, Die." In this episode, Rich Kid attempts to buy a $50 video game after purchasing a $1 Pokemon card. He then leaves his Pokemon card to his son - Rich Kid II.

Israelites or Jews?

And I don't like how sparse the data points are but they went with a wobbly interpolated curve anyway.

Voice to Text system for Linux.

After Sayboard for Android, it seems plausible to get a local voice recongnition system for PC too.

Funny title if read without the hyphen!

It exists, kind of. Python has this construct

for item in iterable:
    ...
else:
     ...

which always puzzles me, since it depends on a break statement execution. I always have to look it up when the else block is executed.

Better? Firefox Translations does it locally without sending data to the cloud. The languages it support are very few though

That math does not check out. There are only 8.1 billion humans alive. How can there be trillions of companies?

Well, what do you think Ph.D. stands for? Philosophiae Doctor.

Lemmyverse? How will that exist in the Fediverse?

Fediverse > Lemmy Galaxy / Cluster?
