I keep mine near the frosted window in my bathroom, so it benefits from the humidity and filtered light.

Who do you think prescribed me these drugs, stable genius?

That’s actually urban.

Myco-heterotrophs were previously known as Saprophytes (decay plants), because it was thought the plants themselves were metabolizing dead matter/waste. It’s not been long since scientists found out these plants were actually parasitizing the fungi that were breaking down the decaying matter.

One famous example is the ghost pipe.

Good to know!

If only the students weren’t in crippling debt…

You have to have an idea of what you’ll run on it first.

Old corporate desktops will do for a NAS and basic light services. Look for one that has three drive bays plus an NVMe slot.

I think there’s a not insignificant cultural factor at play here. Extra manicured gardens feel artificial to me, and don’t yield the same effect as something more resembling of a natural setting. And I know I’m not alone at this. I’d love to see this replicated in at last two or three other continents to contrast the findings.

Bit fields are a necessity in low level networking too.

They’re incredibly useful, I wish more people made use of them.

I remember I interned at a startup programming microcontrollers once and created a few bitfields to deal with something. Then the lead engineer went ahead and changed them to masked ints. Because. The most aggravating thing is that an int size isn’t consistent across platforms, so if they were ever to change platforms to a different word length, they’d be fucked as their code was full of platform specific shenanigans like that.

Talking heads - once in a lifetime

And you may ask yourself: where is my beautiful house? Where is my beautiful wife?

In the industrial automation world and most of the IT industry, data is aligned to the nearest word. Depending on architecture, that’s usually either 16, 32, or 64 bits. And that’s the space a single Boolean takes.

Damn right I killed it, that sting still lives rent free in my brain 25 years later!

“I didn’t want to die. I didn’t want to lose a finger. I didn’t want to miss work,” he told the BBC.

What a thing to think when you’re banging on death’s door.

Mr Friede’s motivation was to develop better therapies for the rest of the world, explaining: “It just became a lifestyle and I just kept pushing and pushing and pushing as hard as I could push - for the people who are 8,000 miles away from me who die from snakebite”.

“I’m doing something good for humanity and that was very important to me. I’m proud of it. It’s pretty cool.”

Dude figured out a way to give to all of humanity by conducting a pet experiment. Just the kind of news I needed to start the day.

Thanks for sharing this!

I’m sorry to interject, but what you refer to as GNU/Linux is… Uh… Never mind, carry on.

That union name goes hard.
