I guessed it right, but was afraid for a bit. They changed the title to be more specific now, was a hurry not a clickbait

I'd disagree, but with some squinting of the eye (a lot of it maybe) it kinda maybe does. Might be an Easter egg, too

A nice trailer, but there's a couple of things I found a bit off: the voice of the mage sounded too weak and distant, maybe the mic settings are too different, I don't know; I expected the mage to object after the last line of trailer 😅 still, it looks interesting

That better be a very expensive cat…

The point being? They don't stop because something is wrong, they stop because they only care about AI companies anymore

This vacation I finally decided to ditch Win for EndeavourOS, it has its quirks sometimes, but I can mostly play without issues, so refreshing to not rely on M$

So it was trimmed originally, after all

I can't understand if I should praise aiming skills or if the egg was cracked up close and personal. Tried to check in the article and saw what Bardella made of it:

The more we make progress, the closer we get to power, the more the violence from the far left, intolerance and pure stupidity are unleashed

For fuck's sake, he just barely survived an assassination no less

Also, avoid Cachy or other Arch based distros for now. They are great, but a far more hands-on. Something for the future, when you are more comfortable with linux in general.

Yeah, I recently switched from Mint to EndeavourOS which is Arch, and it breaks way more often. But I must admit, it's more stable than Debian was 15 years ago, so I assume that Linux is getting friendlier in general

Statistics is skewed even more for cars, I travel by car less than 20 times per year now, and each ride is usually under 15 minutes, this would be very different rides from intercity/-state rides someone could do every day or every week and chances of being in an accident would also be very different

Available on Unix only.

Only kills the thread if it has enabled cancellation

I mean, they will probably set it up correctly to be able to use it

In this way, we can avoid relying on subprocesses and instead use threads (or, technically, asynchronous tasks) in Rust. Threads/tasks are much easier to manage

I believe, in their case cancelling a sync operation will not be a problem because they will not forever block on executing user-provided code, but cancelling a synchronous thread is not easy, afaik

You can multiply this by the average trip distance to get per trip.

This statistics is a bit sus because it's unclear where it comes from, but average flight distance may be around 1000–3000, while average motorcycle travel distance will not be less than 15 miles (I would guess more than 50, really). So the difference between motorcycle and the plane might not be as big, but it will still be 15–150 times. Also I don't think that per trip is really useful metric

This is really sad, I don't want to drive a tin can of death just so I am more protected from others driving tin cans of death :(

At least I don't drive e-bike and use bike lanes ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)\⁠_⁠/⁠¯

I would expect that pedestrian walk far less distance than cars drive, so even a twofold difference in absolute numbers will disappear when normalised by distance. For instance there is a general advice of walking 10k paces every day which is about 7km, average car speed in the city should be around 30km/h, so even if we assume 30 minutes of commute every day (and this is too generous, I believe) it will be more than two times the distance people (should) walk

I'm guilty of that, I admit, there are so many more ways to get wasted use stairs

Thread started from ‘walking’, not from being a pedestrian, and stairs usually require exactly walking

Not for games, usually, but it still has its uses, so why not

That's the point
