Three years ago, I replaced a failing SATA SSD in my personal laptop with a new SATA SSD. That laptop had plenty of power, and I’d still be using it today if the keyboard still worked, and the screen hinges weren’t cracked. It had no NVME slots.

In those days, the predecessors that would become Christianity hadn’t invented the abstinence rules yet.
The Fan-Created Content Guidelines are not a contract that PETA has entered into. There are no grounds for a lawsuit for breach of contract, for copyright infringement, or for anything else.
Corn ethanol isn’t really renewable either. It works better if made from sugarcane, but it’s still a big food-vs-fuel problem.
Renewable liquid fuels have the same energy density.
I believe two reasons: first, political will. Fossil fuel companies are large and entrenched, and have lots of experience lobbying governments. They block things like carbon taxes.
Second, a strange sort of game theory where each player (each country) thinks “My individual contributions to greenhouse gasses are just a small part of the total. They won’t cause global catastrophe. Just an incremental increase in the existing catastrophe. The incremental harm won’t fall directly on me; it will be divided among many countries. If continuing to use fossil fuels provides some small economic advantage, it outweighs the portion of the harms that will land on me. As for the harms I experience from other countries’ carbon emissions, there’s nothing I can do to prevent them.”
The atmega328 and stm32f411 are good. Both are well documented, have boards available with good peripherals, and plenty of other hobbyist projects on them.
The atmega328 is 8-bit. It was made by Atmel, which was a great company until they got bought by Microchip a decade ago. Their IDE sucks now, but you can still program them with other tools and IDEs.
The stm32f411 is 32-bit, a bit more recent, and a bit more expensive. ST microelectronics has great documentation and hobbyist support.
These are microcontrollers, so you’ll be running without an operating system. If you want embedded Linux, you’ll need something with an MMU and more power than a microcontroller.


This is illegal in some places. It should be illegal everywhere in the US.


The EPA definition would exclude chemicals like trifluoroethanol, so the EPA’s definition is narrower, not broader.
From a strict organic chemistry perspective, trifluoroethanol contains a perfluorinated methyl group, and methyl is a type of alkyl, therefore it must be considered a PerFluoro Alkyl Substance.


The usual way for me is to give certbot write access to a directory in the HTTP root, so the server can keep running.


For internal stuff, it may be easier to set up your own CA.
Medusa is apparently so ugly that looking at her turns you to stone. And she’s ugly because her hair is snakes.
But what if I like snakes? Can I feed the snek a cricket I caught earlier in the dungeon?


I can’t say I’ve ever seen that. Partly because my friends would never attack someone for linking something, partly because I’ve never met anyone who likes Discovery.


Windows 98 had god usability. The buttons and controls all had borders, so you could know where they are. In Windows 11, everything is flat, nothing has a border, so you can never know where the interactive area is.


Steam’s explanation is below.
I suspect the game was just too gorey. Note that the game isn’t out yet, and I saw no indication that the authors of the article had played or seen it.
After review, we will not be able to ship your game HORSES on Steam. While we strive to ship most titles submitted to us, we found that this title features themes, imagery, or descriptions that we won’t distribute. Regardless of a developer’s intentions with their product, we will not distribute content that appears, in our judgment, to depict sexual conduct involving a minor. While every product submitted is unique, if your product features this representation—even in a subtle way that could be defined as a ‘grey area’—it will be rejected by Steam. For instance, setting your game in a high school but declaring your characters are of legal age would fall into that category and be banned. This app has been banned and cannot be reused. Re-submissions of this app, even with modifications, will not be accepted.

But it was what he said next that alarmed some Jewish leaders: He chastised the synagogue, saying through his spokeswoman that “these sacred spaces should not be used to promote activities in violation of international law.”
Oooh, how controversial of Mamdani! /s
Nytimes needs to stop passing off shit opinions as fact. This bullshit article isn’t even marked as opinion, yet here they go injecting their pro-genocide opinions into it anyway.


Try to get as much as possible off Windows. You can transfer the remaining Windows-only programs to a virtual machine in snapshot mode, or if necessary, a real machine with a backed up image, that you can reimage regularly.
Not everyone can get off Windows. But get as much as you can. Isolate what’s left.

3 words, but my job is still bullshit.
Remember Memristors? They’re commercially available today, at 200 EUR per bit.
