Or stay with the basics and use lsof.

Either way, not coming with that tool by default and forcing every usage of the file to lock it is a really stupid pair of mistakes.

The official name of that period is "by the end of the last century".

I imagine if it hurt, they would pick some other material.

They mix it with some material they produce, so it won't behave like pure cement. Also, after you mix it, concrete isn't caustic.

The Universe is locally flat.

And so is the Earth if you localize it enough.

The idea is that just the very end of the path needs a precisely sized hole. Every other part of the path is wider, what reduces wearing, and doesn't need as much precision, so wearing isn't a problem.

I have no idea how it actually works on practice. I never used one of them, and I never used an abrasive material.

I always found it funny how little Heavy Metal uses the metals.

It really doesn’t need to be a picture.

Yes, but if you try to make a text post, the browser AI agent doesn't know how to help you and guide you into posting an image instead...

Yes, he is saying "just die".

Also, I don't think the US has free hospitals. Looks to me that he is complaining about people buying services.

Crontab is a really badly designed program that we just can't fix because everybody depends on its WFTs for something.

Not necessarily the bird.

But yeah, AFAIK crickets and frogs only have horny sounds.

That entire idea is so absurd I had to check.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel

Looks like the first transportation-related evidence of wheel we have was made of clay (probably because it was a toy). The first transportation-related actual wheel that we found was made of wood. The first wheel-shaped object we found wasn't used for transportation and was made of wood.

Stone is just a really bad material for making wheels. But I wrongly expected to see some metal ones on the list.

Animals have sounds for all kinds of stuff, not just for trying to get laid.

As a developer that learned it once, a long time ago, naturally I sign to the pledge...

I have some doubts if I should mark it NSFW.

All those student protests on the US seem to be about stopping their universities from supporting the Israel government. But supporting a foreign government is not a normal thing for a university to do, why do they do it?

Is there some educational or research resource they get?

The links like !NoStupidQuestions@lemmy.world.

I have had a pretty bad time making those work. I have tried searching for them at the communities page, and removing the exclamation mark and pasting them on my instance (lemmy.world/c/NoStupidQuestions@lemmy.world).

Some times one of those works, other times my instance finds nothing. And if I go directly to the home instance of the community, it doesn't bring my login.

What is the recommended way to use those?
