Half grandfathered in from a period when UK was a commonwealth, and ANZAC were not technically independent.

ISO-3166-1 has a lot of "countries" that aren't actually independent - but useful to have codes for because they are geographically distinct.

ccTLDs are based on the ISO two letter country codes - it's deferring the responsibility for cleaning up the British mess to ISO

GW are notorious for demanding creative veto. Not because they want to interfere but to maintain continuity.

So even if the quality goes, it won't ruin the canon.

Nope. They already have .mu

Once the treaty is signed, the .io cctld will phase out over 5 years.

Unless ICANN get greedy and grant an exemption.

Jokes on you - they were sugar free.

Enjoy turning your guts inside out for the next day

Is this based purely on UTC offsets?

Are there polygons available for the tz database?

Even if this were true, it wouldn't matter that much. Because Orks are psychic, if enough of them believe that the Lost Primarchs are Mork and Gork then they become Mork and Gork for all intents and purposes.

Unless a Primarch is now suddenly psychically strong enough to resist being transmuted by the collective psychic pressure of all Orks across the entire galaxy.

Tell that to the strawberries I bought and left on the counter instead of putting in the fridge

Is this Syria?

Thank you for the far more detailed (and correct!) explanation.

~~You know the counting numbers? 1, 2, 3, so on?

There's infinitely many.

But there's fewer of them than the "reals", which are numbers like 1.5, 42.7, and pi (basically all the whole numbers and all the ones in between).

This diagram is showing the "Continuum Hypothesis" which says that there might be some set of numbers that are "in between" the counting numbers and the reals in terms of size. We (humanity) do not yet know for certain if it's true or not.

This is obviously a gross oversimplification that probably gets some important details wrong.~~

Sir, this is Lemmy.

You can still adopt or go through surrogacy, so don't think you're completely out of the woods yet

My immediate thought is that Klinger will be happy.

Trump's legacy will be long term damage to national security, rampant racism and discrimination, and widespread corruption.

Once upon a time, I accidentally created a folder named "~" in my home folder (the company provided scripting framework would inconsistently expand variables, so the folder had a ton of stuff inside it).

I ran "rm -rf ~" and only panicked when I started to wonder why it wasn't taking too long.

Good news is that it only managed to get halfway through my local checkout of aosp before I stopped it. Bad news was that it nuked most of my dotfiles.

The original article smelled wrong when they claimed to have broken AES. Thankfully, Bruce Schneier is far more authoritative than I ever will be and gives a short and succinct list of links to debunkings of this.

That guy? He was horrible at AA. Did something to the water cooler and now everyone is falling off the wagon

I mean, it is shit posting

I think we finally figure out how to not poop for three days
