Going to piggyback off your post with this comment.

Where can we get laptop (m.2) wifi cards that are supported by FOSS drivers? I’ve been having a hard time finding them anymore.

monkey’s paw moment.

Nope. Flat earthers.

The firmament!

Sawdust pills? What’s actually in it?

“There are four boxes to be used in the defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and cartridge (or ammo). Please use in that order.”

And I’m over here just sending the bulletpoint unaided by AI. That must be why I can’t get a raise.

At work, you’re better off being a procrastinator or just generally slow. If you’re fast and reactive, you’ll be called lazy when you’re sitting there with nothing left to do 😤

The Human Claymore

The problem is, where do we start? We’ve been, er, “taking the L” for so long, when are we going to start giving the L?

Great article, some good things to read about for once.

Crazy juxtaposition there with the nazi who killed one man and injured two others, got charged with assault, sentenced to two years. Then the antifascist who came to the defense of someone who was being beaten, using a knife to cut two people (and not kill them?) but got sentenced to 20 years.

As the refrain goes: You first, Larry. Show us all of your data and then we can talk

Does framework try to use open source silicon where it can? Are schematics available for the CPU (or other chips)? Or is that not their thing?

Thank you for illustrating for me. I understand what you’re saying.

Yes, that’s my point, we have computers that can pretty accurately represent depth, not like the old projections we drew on maps. Stretching it out flat (zooming in on google earth) has less distortion than these projections shown here, don’t they?

Same thought, ha.

Unlike the human head, the earth actually is nearly spherical. There’s got to be some differences in how spherical projections work when the object actually is a sphere, I would think. I know that 2D maps are distorted, but are globes actually this distorted as well? Never knew that, if so.

Edit: After reflecting on it for a minute, I see they’re demonstrating forms of 2D map distortion. The way depth is represented is variable. With modern concepts of 3D imagery, we must have solved this distortion problem. If you open up Google Earth’s globe, it doesn’t have such distortion.

I guess you needed a /s at the end of my comment. Apologies.

My joke was that I have such a strong desire to read long walls of text, that I was looking for one where it did not exist. Maybe my joke was too many layers deep to be perceived as a joke…

I tried to expand your ellipses. What’s the rest of your comment say!?!?
