  • The choices of developers or the corporations that enslave developers? It's not the same.

  • Could be. Stopping working for the system, with massive strikes. There is nothing they fear more. But they will exercise violence first, have no doubt. They are the lords and masters of violence. With violence they have the upper hand. A difficult situation to manage.

  • This approach of blaming renewables is the typical one that the press is spreading, without clarifying ALL the aspects that make some renewable energy generation facilities inflexible.

    Antonio Turiel explains very well what has happened and, in fact, some time before the blackout, in view of important alterations in frequency and voltage, he had already warned that this could happen.

    In the new installations, according to the new regulations, photovoltaic plants must have systems to have a reaction margin in case of fluctuations. But in older plants this was not mandatory and, in order to give flexibility to the system, as has been commented here, it is necessary to have a reserve of other generation sources.

    At the time of the blackout, there were many photovoltaic plants without response capacity and the necessary plants, especially gas plants, were not prepared to respond to the disturbance.

    This was a combination of greed and incompetence. Greed for wanting to save money by disconnecting gas plants or for not updating the technology in photovoltaic plants. Incompetence on the part of government and regulators to put in place the necessary means to force corporations to take the necessary measures to avoid what has happened.

  • The motherboard can be cleaned with a generous amount of isopropyl alcohol. It cleans slightly corroded areas, displaces water, is not a good conductor of electricity and evaporates easily.

  • I repeat a word and a phrase, but without oralizing them. I think them to myself repeatedly, especially in the mornings, when I get up, when I go to breakfast, and when I am nervous.

    Would that be echolalia too?

  • The FSF has clear guidelines and follows them rigorously, nothing else. It's good that they don't make exceptions. Any problem with microcode or other proprietary drivers starts with the fact that they are not free. Making exceptions would partially solve the problem, but the situation would not change significantly, and the FSF would then be violating its own principles.

    The FSF's job in this regard is to try to open debate about the problems of not having free security patches and, in any case, to try to uncover hidden vulnerabilities in proprietary tools and facilitate the creation of free tools that solve the problems.

  • I was going to recommend Tox, but I don't think there have been any iPhone clients with up-to-date development for years.

  • The most reasonable thing to do is to cite the original publication and its author.

  • Thank you.

    Without it, it would be of little use. But, unfortunately, even with it, we also have little guarantee that someone will reuse the code without re-sharing it.

  • Not a bad idea. It would not be difficult to include it in this project.

  • Literally.

  • My laptop for home use is almost 15 years old. My desktop is almost 11 years old. My work laptop is 8 years old. Here they are talking about more modern and powerful equipment, defining them as obsolete. I don't know, maybe we should start questioning if these consumption dynamics are a bit harmful.

  • Since there only are tools for filter or arrange contents, nor complex algorithms suggesting contents, this kind of functions are not implemented.

    Perhaps someday some finer filtering by community or some way to limit the number of posts from each community will be implemented.

    But I don't think it's a priority for developers at this time.
