Just a stranger trying things.
Fascinating, what do you call the white-red decoration? This is very traditional in Bulgaria and is called Martenitsa and is typically hung or given away on Baba Marta on March 1st, for good wishes in health and luck, until spring comes.
Is it the same /similar in Romania?
Don’t give them ideas!
Sorry didn’t mean to sound condescending, but capacitors can indeed output their charge at extremely high rates but have terrible energy storage capacity. You would need an unreasonably large capacitor bank, but it is technically feasible as that’s what the CERN has. But in this case batteries are a more suitable option, they can be tuned between energy and power to fit the exact use case more appropriately.
Capacitors, lol
Running on prem is certainly possible, but requires a dedicated sysadmin team for anything serious. It is very important to be able to have availability guarantees and some expert you can count on to solve your problem with a phone call.

Isn’t that something you solve with snooze? Like put the alarm for the earlier time, set the snooze time to 15min and hit snooze until you want to wake up?
True, many games sold physically are still faced with the risk of disappearing, due to DRM…
We are in agreement, but I was attempting to launch a discussion about how we want the laws to actually be applied and possibly how they should be reformulated.
Of course we should have consistent laws, but which way should we have it? We can either defend pirates and Meta, or none of them, so what are you saying? Unless there’s a third option I’m missing?
Perhaps I’m misunderstanding, but it sounds like you’re suggesting we side with Meta to put a precedence in which pirating content is legal and allows websites like TPB to keep existing but legitimally? Or are you rather taking the opposite stand, which would further entrench the illegality of TPB activities and in the same swoop prevent meta from performing these actions?
I don’t know if we can simultaneously oppose meta while protecting TPB, is there?
I will always remember my first experience using MacOS: I am comfortable with computers and a relative needed help with their recently purchased macbook. I had plugged in a USB stick to transfer some files and was done and wanted to eject it. I spent way too much time than I care to admit, trying all possible options, right-clicks, settings, everything imaginable, to eject the damn thing.
It was impossible to me to find the simplest operation with a USB stick, something required to operate it. I capitulated and looked online. The solution? I had to drag and drop the USB stick icon into the trashcan!?!?!?
To this day, I will never understand the absolute ridicule of this and I will never comprehend how anyone is expected to figure it out on their own. And this is from the OS touted as the most user friendly and intuitive. Go figure.
