I miss the days when that X font was only associated with Xorg...
Although you can use case insensitive filesystems with Linux, and case sensitive filesystems with macOS. I believe the case sensitivity is a function of the specific filesystem
but yeah, practically, the root for Linux is always case sensitive, and APFS ~~ain't~~ is only if you ask it to be ( https://support.apple.com/lv-lv/guide/disk-utility/dsku19ed921c/mac ).
For 75kg (roughly average South Korean male weight) and 7" step height (standard in the US I think, not sure about Korea), this is about 0.13kJ/step.
By coincidence, the human metabolic efficiency is (roughly) the same as the conversion between kJ and food (kilo)calories, meaning this would be (very roughly) 0.1 calories/step.
Not much, given a single French fry is maybe 5-10 calories. But it's better than nothing!
Pick your favorite tech company, pick a small team with a "nerdy" engineering mandate, and I'm confident you'll find the academic, geeky science and engineering types you're talking about.
They probably aren't very vocal though, because 1) there's a huge PR/marketing budget which is responsible for being the face of the company, and 2) well...these are nerdy STEM folks who probably like their job because they get very well compensated to be nerdy STEM types, and not because they're fanboys/girls.
Is using an old picture of Elliot Page
and referencing women
considererd poor form? Honest question, I really don't know the etiquette.
Yeah, something this big is absolutely not one engineer's fault. Even if that engineer maliciously pushed an update, it's not their fault
it was a complete failure of the organization, and one person having the ability to wreck havoc like this is the failure.
And I actually have some amount of hope that, in this case, it is being recognized as such.
KDE is minimalistic?! Granted it's been a very long time since using it, but I'd say Fluxbox or i3wm are minimalistic, KDE...not so much.
Not hating on it at all, just musing.
Codec has huge impact.
I was so excited for Elysium because I thought it would be the spiritual sequel.
I believe CCR said this rather eloquently:
Some folks are born silver spoon in hand
Lord, don't they help themselves, Lord?
But when the taxman come to the door
Lord, the house lookin' like a rummage sale, yeah
You're probably right, but there are reasons why one might list a nominal price, but not actually collect payment.
I've listed things on Craiglist for a small price but not collected the money. With free items, "buyers" can be more flaky, and I don't want to deal with that
but by placing a small price, people seemed better at showing up to pick stuff up on time, etc. So, list a price, and then reverse bait and switch when they arrive to pick up item and give it away.
For these, I could imagine wanting them to go to a good home. With no price, you may get frat house pranks, etc., so a small price gets people who are actually interested.
Or...yeah, you're probably right.

It's not all bad
remote work policy is now a major topic. You'd be laughed out of any number of job interviews for asking about remote work policy, whereas now it's a completely fair question.
