Degaussers use varying magnetic fields in a specific way, it’s not raw field strength doing the erasing.

The Ball two-piece-lid is pretty rad.

2·11 months agoIt’s only about you because you made it about you.
“Ghoul” is not a slur. You saying that seeing an unpleasant word next to a word that reminds you of anime is at all equivalent to a slur is frankly ghastly of you.
You’d almost have a leg to stand on if they changed it to “Captain Weeaboo” or something, but even then the comparison is a stretch. You’re showing up at somebody’s funeral to say “I scraped my knee, that’s bad too! We’re all equal as humans, so I deserve to speak”.
Grow up.

141·11 months agoSure, because the persecution of black people in the US is at all equivalent to the bullying of anime nerds, right.
The problem is not that thin-skinned people could do mental gymnastics to find reasons to be upset, it’s that ‘coon’ is straight up a racial slur that was historically a major tool of oppression.
Still extremely customizable, and peerless rolling release features.
You can mix and match stable and bleeding edge packages very easily and switch at any time.
When packages make breaking changes, Gentoo will warn you and guide you through the migration before you update and only if you have the affected package installed.

2·11 months agoPrecisely why I say ‘unlikely’. For every couple who’s happy without physical intimacy, there are probably ten others that are falling apart. Saying that kisslessness signals disfunction is not the same thing as saying that hypersexuality signals health.
At the end of the day, everyone is different and it’s not possible to infer anything about an individual couple by looking at averages and correlation. It’s still interesting to look at trends and why they might be the way they are.

4·11 months agoFive seconds or less is a huge smallest bucket for kiss duration! At the five-second threshold you’re already entering make-out territory.
Plus, people whose kisses average one second are having a very different experience than those who average around four seconds.
Seems like a poorly-designed statistic to me. I wonder if they felt they needed such coarse granularity because the data is collected by survey and people struggle to bucket themselves well.

1·11 months agoIt’s a key symptom, I’d say. Relationship health is a deep and subtle thing, but if people aren’t kissing then it’s unlikely things are going well.
Keep deepthroating that boot.
How does that make the great firewall a good thing?
I like that more behaves like cat when there’s less than a page of output rather than requiring you to press
qto get back to the prompt even when it would just fit.There’s probably a way to make less do that too, but more already does it without configuration. Overall I use less most of the time but I like having the option.
“the ability to control information flow”
Yay! What a feature! Tell me what I’m allowed to know, O lord.

Not going to get many clicks with a real image.

6·1 year agoPlus, have people never tried to push floaties or balloons underwater? It’s not even a matter of strength, you can’t really fight buoyancy. Even a large heavy adult would only be able to force a very small air bladder under long enough to actually swim.




Super interesting; I wonder whether the fraction of nodes that need to be represented by cycles eats into the performance benefit vs. other approaches.
