During the ice age the size of the Laurentide ice sheet was over 4km (2.5 miles) thick and 13m km² (5m miles²)

This is completely irrelevant to the discussion at hand, except it’s another mind-blowingly huge piece of ice.

Agreed, net/net energy usage reduction is more efficient. However, carbon capture and/or geoengineering are now unfortunately necessary in tandem with reducing emissions for humanity (and the other species unfortunate enough to be sharing this planet with our mistakes) to avoid the worst outcomes of climate change. We simply didn’t do enough soon enough, and several warming effects are already in motion.

And unfortunately, both climate deniers and activists alike have been fighting against additional funding and research in these technologies, so we’re pretty far behind in our understanding.

For Trump, others ‘respect’ is groveling and subservience.

Trust and collaboration are never what he wants. That leaves room for him to not get his way.

What he fails to grasp is that people can act like they’re subservient to you while making you a useful idiot, especially when you’re as easily manipulated as he is.

And this is precisely why world leaders and business leaders are lining up to kiss his ring. Not out of fear, but because they want something and they know how to get it with him.

Better than Smeagulls I suppose.

It’s funny, but not uncommon for native English speakers too, don’t be hard on yourself! Honestly I just thought your phone had autocorrected since they’re so close to each other.

Most likely that day is the same day we find out the percentage of Russian nuclear warheads are still functional.

The difference is that that one was on porpoise

That poor aquatic animal!

Gladly!

I’d pay to see that fan cut.

Understandable. The Blackbird has that effect on people!

They’re referring to the SR-72 Darkstar

Though it looks more like a Valk, I think.

Rape. Don’t let anyone sugar coat it with any other word.

We use a timed feeder for our cat’s breakfast. I don’t force DST on her lol.

Oh to be clear, it’s all humor. At least mostly, I’m sure there are RMS level fanatics somewhere that truly believe some of the BS.

This is something as old as time. I’ve seen it prolifically on Reddit (though not in the Emacs community, they generally discourage memes), various Linux forums, old Usenet, various programming forums… I’m not trying to be evasive, but it’s hard to provide examples that aren’t specifically cherry picked, which wouldn’t benefit the conversation much.

There’s even a Wikipedia page dedicated to this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Editor_war

Bruh 😂 the Emacs user community absolutely constantly shit on Vim users. When they added Vi(m) bindings they literally named it ‘evil mode’, and they constantly make fun of people who use it, and spacemacs, and the latest flavor of (neo)vi(m), and all the extensions necessary to make vim halfway useful as an ide, etc etc etc.

This is precisely what Opensuse MicroOS, Aeon, etc do, with the one difference that they use the snapshots as a fallback rather than a test env.

What, no LaTeX?!

Than they should have A) not fucked up the ruling in the first place and B) had a timer going and pointed to it and said “sorry, not going to review, your challenge time is up”.

100% they fucked up. That’s not either gymnast’s fault.

I certainly have been getting updates recently on EOS. Maybe try refreshing your gpg keys and checking your mirror list?
