Dental problems aren’t about them looking good; teeth used to kill. Dental disease used to be the 5th leading cause of death. Your great-grandparents aren’t the best bar for dentistry in the past as modern dentistry began in the 18th century.

I have personally written code for quantum computers to save time due to algorithmic complexity; I was a college student at the time.
So if their usefulness is stuck in the unknowable future then I’m a time traveler.
Hell, 10/100base-t only uses four wires so you could run internet through a 4-pole 3.5; though YMMV depending on the particular 3.5mm’s specs. I don’t know if drivers would be a problem, but perhaps a 4-pole 3.5 to USB would be handy.
I always loved the how the line “rise up lights” when pronounced with an American or English accent is ‘razor blades’ in an Australian accent.
No, this is the media conflating the publics perception of physical security and cybersecurity to make a story. If you ask an average person how hard it is to steal money from a casino they’d say it’s next to impossible, but if instead you asked them how hard it was to hack their attached hotel’s booking system they’d say they had no idea.
Gunter’s chain is 20.1m, so half a Gunter is approximately a decameter; a rope would be unwieldy as it’d be one and two thirds rope per decameter.
No, the fact that businesses pay for it for something of that guarantee despite there being free peer-alternatives means that it is a better guarantee.
When you see businesses electing to pay for something despite free alternatives, there is likely a reason (or a number of them). I’ve seen free tools go from active maintaining to completely dead in a single update due to the work needed to get it back up and operating with new environment-side changes.
The government within the book and movie is within the limits of liberal theory, militaristic, but liberal. It is meritocratic as civilians must earn their citizenship and have a right to choose not to, and it is a limited democracy in the same vein; not all choose to partake.
The SS uniform is purely from the movie and is purposefully chosen. Sargon of Akkad makes his position pretty clear in the video linked, if you’d bother to watch it; “You love Starship Troopers because you think that when the fascists come, and you are called upon, you will pick up a rifle and do your duty like you know you should… Nowhere in the world at any point in history has man lived lives of such tranquility, abundance, and freedom than under a liberal democracy.”
How you get fascist from those sentiments is beyond me.
Not exactly. The government in starship troopers is nationalistic, but not fascist; it’s a liberal limited meritocratic democracy, people still have power but only those that earn the power (somewhat like the Roman Republic but that’s a whole other story filled with socii and quasi-autonomy).
It makes sense considering SCP originally found GPT loaded onto magnetic tape reels in what has only be described as a disused military bunker.
I wish to possess loamy loam, though I’d take loamish loam if that’s in stock.
Read my comment above which corrects @Candelestine’s assertion that candle flame is a plasma.
Only very hot flames are a plasma and usually only within certain regions of the main body of the flame; most flames one encounters in their life will not be a plasma due to low or non-existent ionization. A candle flame is almost certainly not a plasma, rather it’s a combusting (oxidizing) gas which appears as a flame due to the emission of photons in the visible range from regions where the fuel is reacting with air. Furthermore, fire does not require mechanical or kinetic force to combine a fuel and an oxidizer, there is no need to ‘ram’ these particles together. Simple contact between a fuel and an oxidizer in states which would allow redox will cause burning and possibly visible flame (not all redox produces visible flame).
Indeed, that’s one solution that was brought up in the GitHub issues.
That’s a good point, and I’m sure that would certainly be a problem with PageRank and similar ranking algorithms, but I wouldn’t be entirely surprised if Google and other SEs have intelligently crafted a pre-processor that translates links like “kbin.social/m/[email protected]/t/34817/Is-Lemmy-Indexable” to the Original-Instance-Link (OIL, lurking Google devs feel free to steal this acronym) “https://lemmy.world/post/189226” so that relevant algorithms properly reflect the ‘true’ ranking of the information itself rather than the particular instance’s… instance of it.
OStatus and Pump.io have been around for a while so SEs may (should) have already identified this problem and addressed it unless they’ve decided it’s not important, not in-line with how their rankings are intended to work, or simply not easily solvable in some cases like I previously assumed. As Bjarne Stroustrup would say, “If you think it’s simple, then you have misunderstood the problem.”
It’s certainly archivable; all one must do is look at the ‘robots.txt’ (a file that websites use to let nice search engines know which pages they shouldn’t index) associated with the domain to find out what it permits to be indexed. Lemmy.world’s robots.txt only disallows pages associated with instance/account creation, user settings, and administrator/authorized interaction.
So everything relevant to how reddit appears on Google is possible for Lemmy, the only difference is that Lemmy’s associated PageRank (and other ranking scores) are considerable lower than reddit’s. This should change with time, especially when more niche and specialized communities take hold.
It’s not really a limitation of the software, it’s all up to each instance to decided how they handle things. Instance admins can code in a banner as you describe and they can make defederation transparent such as how Beehaw lists all linked and blocked instances. Every instance can do this, they just have to implement it.
Yep, Mumble is the most common, and there are still a couple groups that use Teamspeak.
Discord caps at 100 people in a call while I’ve seen good Mumble servers handle over 800.
