Not even that, it’s more expensive than natural gas and you can’t even use it in a combined cycle plant. So you pay more and get less energy for it. You don’t even need to mention pollution to show it is a terrible fuel.

You can, but it requires some setup in the desktop mode. I guess some people do not bother or don’t know you can do that.

So what was the original saying? As I see it, this phrase is wrong no matter how you look at it. Because all ram is used at all times, for example if you have 32GB of free ram, the kernel will use all of it as a page cache to speed up the file system. The more free ram you have the more files can be cached, avoiding access to the disk when you read them.

This phrase is just plain wrong. Unused ram is used for the page cache by the kernel. You must always have some ram free or else the whole system will not operate without a page cache. Larger page cache allows to cache more files from the file system.

I think you missed the point. Imagine 2 devices, device A has a chip with flash memory that contains a binary blob with firmware. Device B doesn’t have built-in flash storage so it requires the driver to load the same binary blob during boot. Both devices are reprogrammable and both contain the same closed source firmware. However device A would be allowed but device B would not. From my point of view they are the same device. The fact that you don’t know how to reprogram device A doesn’t make it more or less proprietary.

It’s just a name you can google, it’s not specifically 3g only. In practice what they want to do is to remove all voice services that are not VoLTE, which includes the older systems too. In Australia they even started to ban phone models that are not able to do emergency calls over VoLTE properly.

Recently there has been a movement for “3g shutdown” in some parts of the world, but I guess it will spread with time too. So unfortunately it will stop working at some point.

You must be close to a station. I think normal fm stations are expected to work at least 40km away, but I doubt you can receive it without a good antenna at that distance.

I think the idea is they are too lazy to work for rent. If they really wanted they would go to work and not be homeless anymore. And if they are not able to find any job, they can always do forced labor in a prison system. That’s how it was in the USSR. People in power really like this kind of a system

There is no threat at all, russia is just trying to bluff a stronger position ahead of inevitable negotiation rounds. To claim more benefits and more territory. They won’t be doing anything against the US no matter what. Maximum cut some underwater cables and tell more nuclear threats like they always do.

no it’s not, this is a moth not flea

This is a very dangerous way of thinking. You cannot tell at the time of discovery if specific research will be useful or not down the line. You need to advance the research in all directions, even if some of them seem silly or useless, or else you will handicap your progress in other fields which you didn’t see the connection with at first.

Why mips and not RiscV? I would assume it’s easier to emulate in software and has good support in linux

EDIT: found it

Some architectures had arbitrarily-shifted operands all the time (ARM), some have shitty addressing modes necessitating that they would be slow (RISCV), some would need more than 4KB to even decode instructions (x86), and some were just too complex to emulate in so little space (PPC).

Could it be the pc relative addressing often used on risc-v would be slow to run on 4004?

Funny you mentioned arch, as steam deck os is based on arch, so it is using arch btw

Hydrogen Sulfide can damage concrete, not sure about the chair tho

It’s the other way around, you will get all of the tickets which are missing plate info. Some guy did it and regrets it, there is a documentary about it.

I can’t quite understand what is your point? Are you arguing that both JVM and WASM are bad? With this I agree, they both have terrible performance and in an ideal world we wouldn’t use any of them.

Are you arguing that JVM bytecode is better than WASM? That’s objectively not true. One example is a function pointer in C. To compile it to JVM bytecode you would need to convert it to the virtual call using some very roundabout way. But in WASM you have native support for function pointers, which gives much better flexibility when compiling other languages.

Have you seen what it outputs? The same way we can compile C to brainfuck, it doesn’t mean it’s good or is useful.

You can’t compile C to java bytecode, they are fundamentally incompatible. But you can compile C to wasm, which is what you want for a good universal bytecode. Java is shit.

What does it say? I can’t read greek
