My poor to-read list, have mercy.

Prions on steroids.

What is Joe short for (in the coffee sense) in your mind? I know there’s a few theories, and the jamoke one seems the most plausible to me.

Why, who’s Joseph M Basile?

I can imagine the delivery trucks being held up by locals wanting their water back. The trouble is, the people who work at the plant are the locals - as the article makes clear, some welcome Nestle et al because they want the jobs.

It’s irrational, which just appears random (which is why I said pseudorandom).

I don’t see why not, it’s just numbers, which is all we store most data as.

You could use it as a source of pseudorandom numbers to encrypt an infinite data steam, e.g. we’ll encrypt using e, starting at position 40468.

I watched and enjoyed that one yesterday, and he’s bang on the money. People here are saying “well it’s EoL” but that means it’s got all the way through development and its full lifetime with such a prominent set of bugs.

I don’t think I’ll be buying D-Link if that’s what supported means.

makes sense or is reasonable

That’s getting less and less relevant every day.

To be fair, you’ve added commas which makes it a parenthetical phrase. But yeah - people do speak like this in real life; technically, I should have said no-one speaks like this in non-impromptu speech without sounding stilted.

“Carl said on Thursday” is definitely more idiomatic (to my BrE ears, anyway) than “Carl on Thursday said”.

It’s a bit stilted and no-one would speak like that (at least without sounding pretentious), but it’s not bad grammar.

Also, shame on the moron that downvoted you for asking a question.

So they’ve just decided that all devices now support HEVC (H.265) and they’ll just disable transcoding? My media centre is on a Pi 3B and that can’t play h265 smoothly. If I had a Synology I’d be pretty annoyed!

We need to avoid what I call super-spreader events.

Or what everyone else calls the Kessler syndrome.

Your argument is that a single backup is sufficient? I disagree, and I think that so would most in the selfhosted and datahoarder communities.

That’s a crazy number - 300 AQI is when you get into the final “hazardous” band. 1900 means the needle can go all the way around the dial and comfortably lap the merely hazardous level.

This is a lie, unless you know something the article doesn’t mention. The quoted chat log shows the character acting horrified and arguing against it.

This makes sense.

It seems to have failed to notice the whole transcript and just repeated the intro/summary.
