!showerthoughts@lemmy.world needs to up its game

They die for a variety of reasons, including disease, pollution, heat waves, etc. Not being half starved of essential nutrients means that they’re more resilient.

From the article:

[Unaffiliated expert] said: “[…] bees face many stressors. Good nutrition is one way to improve their resilience to these threats, and in landscapes with dwindling natural forage for bees, a more complete diet supplement could be a game changer. This breakthrough discovery of key phytonutrients that, when included in feed supplements, allow sustained honey bee brood rearing has immense potential to improve outcomes for colony survival, and in turn the beekeeping businesses we rely on for our food production.”

Your second sentence is your own thoughts, not part of the tldr summary, right? I think you should make that separation clear (in Wikipedia terms, I’m flagging this as “original research”).

You’d recommend Heroic launcher over Lutris? Epic didn’t install via Lutris for me, but I haven’t got around to looking into it.

I’ve never played that either, but I love Metroidvanias so I assume it’s great.

I picked up the Mass Effect trilogy recently following a tip from here (I think).

Can you also fly them at 90°? I’m thinking about flags like Japan 🇯🇵 where is the same or the UK 🇬🇧 where most couldn’t tell.

Recently while troubleshooting I’ve found a lot of deleted comments with dozens of people saying thanks, often for years afterwards. Reddit annoyed their most valuable posters and we’re all paying for it.

Making encryption cheaper to implement for IoT stuff is definitely a good thing, although bugs that won’t ever be patched will likely continue to be the main problem.

Defcon 33 just finished with no news about a backdoor (remember Dual_EC_DRBG), so that’s nice.

It’s equivalent because UNION removes duplicates; the behaviour you’re describing happens with UNION ALL. Since both queries are article.*, both halves will have the same columns and the dedupe will be successful.

UNION is less efficient because of this deduplication, but it’s the default since that’s what most people want. If that matters then you’d be correct that a JOIN version will be more efficient (possibly depending on indexes present and sql engine).

To be clear, the command is made with modern C++, not the icons (which come from nerd fonts or the dev’s equivalent).

That won’t show if results are equivalent, only if the query plans are matching, which they won’t be (at least before the SQL engine’s optimisations).

There aren’t any joins in either query (and only one table involved), so that quoted bit of documentation isn’t relevant.

Order aside, the two results would be identical In the same way that 2(4 + 3) = 2×4 + 2×3

Interestingly, I can see that post in infosec’s copy, which suggests that p.dev has accepted and federated it. I know that there was a problem with indexing posts on p.dev a while ago, perhaps it’s still an issue.

Twenty years ago, I had an epiphany: Linux was ready for the desktop.

Please read articles before posting; this is literally the first sentence. The article is about the author’s 20 years of Linux desktop usage.

I have fingerprint biometrics protecting my phone’s lock screen and the vault itself - I feel this is the biggest weakness in my security, both from weaker legal protections (there are situations where you cannot be compelled to give your password but your fingerprints aren’t protected) and the fact that my phone has my fingerprints all over it.

My desktop just has a numeric PIN on the lock screen since you also need to enter the Bitwarden master password (and you need to be in my house to get the chance to type it in).

We know this as the Caravan Game.

Yeah, I hate those little dots and I inevitably jump through the hoops until I’ve clicked enough things to make them go away.

I’m pretty sure you wouldn’t be able to get a custom number plate of that star’s name.

metux is Enrico Weigelt, the dev behind Xlibre, the new fork of X11. He’s quite controversial, partly due to claiming to want to keep politics out of development by filling his posts with alt-right dog whistles, as well as being an antivaxer and having some… er… revisionist views of history.

Network effect, same as for most social things. Perhaps the EU will force interoperability, but they seem more focused on “save the children” style control and monitoring.
