    Why did Homo Sapiens Become House Trained. Rather than controlled?

  • So based on this and your post the other day about red meat, I really really really advise you to seek counseling or a psychiatrist. Obviously no one can diagnose you via social media, but this post is borderline incomprehensible and your recent posts and comments are strongly indictive of some kind of manic episode. I really think you would benefit from help right now and I really urge you to seek it.

    Should 21-23-year-olds be allowed to date older people?

    Jump

  • The age of majority is a pretty arbitrary line that we draw; I don't see how this would be fundamentally different. We already "encroach" on interpersonal relationships by not allowing adults to date minors (which again is defined completely arbitrarily).

  • Which of the 3 standard compression algorithms on Unix (gz, xz, or bz2) is best for long term data archival at their highest compression?

  • Unrelated, but what on earth is going on with the thorns in your comments?

  • AFAIK none of those formats include any mechanism for error correction. You'd likely need to use a separate program like zfec to generate the extra parity data. Bzip2 and Zstandard are somewhat resistant to errors since they encode in blocks, but in the event of bit rot the entire affected block may still be unrecoverable.

    Alternatively, if you're especially concerned with robustness then it may be more advisable to simply maintain multiple copies across different drives or even to create an off-site backup. Parity bits are helpful but they won't do you much good if your hard drive crashes or your house catches fire.

  • Cloudflare bankrolls fascists

    Jump

  • Interpreting a PR which changes "he" to "they" as pushing political ideology is not an apolitical stance. I don't know a ton about him and I'm not convinced this makes him a "fascist" by association, but the fact that he seems to be ideologically aligned with the ones in power on America is troubling at the very least.

  • Do all American stores have greeters?

    Jump

  • As other commenters have said this is basically only a thing at Walmart. Sometimes in very small shops someone will say hello as you enter, but that's a much more informal thing and as I said only really happens with tiny mom-and-pop stores where there might only be one or two people working.

  • Microsoft has discussed the possibility of creating user mode APIs for the monitoring that security programs like CrowdStrike could utilize instead of installing a kernel mode driver, but they haven't said anything about locking down kernel mode drivers and I personally doubt they ever would.

  • IIRC it is possible to disable the indicators altogether, although that may or may not be an acceptable solution to you. For me it was worth the trade-off because of exactly this reason.

  • Phoronix: Several Linux Kernel Driver Maintainers Removed Due To Their Association To Russia

  • Putin is a despot trying to make his mark on history. No amount of appeasement from the global West would have stopped him from ordering the invasion.

  • If that was how it worked then we would have suffocated along ago under all the argon that sank to the bottom of the troposphere. The atmosphere is turbulent and extremely good at mixing gases of varying densities, and CFCs last decades before being decomposed or removed from the air.

  • The UN exists to provide a forum for discourse between states, not to be an international legislature. If resolutions actually had teeth the UN would cease to exist in its current form.

  • Yep, I bought a Pixel last year because I got drawn in by the bells and whistles, and it started exhibiting the common screen issue a few months back that the 8 tends to get. I literally just got around to RMAing it today because my 6-year-old 6T is just so solid that I didn't really miss it.

  • Microsoft also released their own package manager called Winget a few years ago. It mostly just wraps existing installers to allow for unattended installation, but it seems to work pretty well in my (limited) experience.

  • Why do people still eat beef when we know it's terrible for Earth?

  • Ethics may not be fully objective, but claiming that they're fully based on emotion is a ridiculous thing to say. You can make ethical arguments based in reason. Pointing to the war and saying "see, ethics aren't real" is an incredibly naïve conclusion to draw.

  • Why do people still eat beef when we know it's terrible for Earth?

    Jump

  • This is ignoring the fact that raising a cow for consumption requires ~10 times the amount of crops per calorie compared to just eating the crops directly. Also, I don't think I've heard a single health expert recommend eating more beef - the universal understanding is that red meat consumption is generally a net negative in terms of overall health.
