He has certainly been weirdly selective in the data he quotes while trying not to come across as complete loon.

I do pretty much everything in Firefox but during the week I keep a Chrome window up for Hangouts and Jira.

Lemmy really needs to support post combining somehow so you can see the story once (and maybe even combine the threads in the UI?).

Is it worth raising an issue with the project? Also enable logging to see if there are any clues as to why a rescan is being done?

Syncthing should have inotify support which allows it to watch for changes rather than polling. Does that help?

Nice. A friend of mine built one with ball bearings: https://youtu.be/40DkJ9vt5CI?si=2TupxpdiZkEg3nVB

Very binary, much wow.

My Organic maps has a download screen for the maps which regularly update outside of the app itself.

I think you underestimate how much storage those tiles take up compared to the vector map data.

The data updates are handled separately in app

Won’t it? I thought you just needed to enable the apps you want. My fdroid AntennaPod is certainly usable in it.

All the deck modding guides make me anxious messing about with the game filesystem. But I would like a decent inventory manager. How easy is it to restore the game and saves if you cock up?

I wrote a bit of BASIC on my Spectrum but there was a reason they had keyword shortcuts on that keyboard. It wasn’t until I got my Dragon 32 which had I proper keyboard that I really got into coding.

My dad failed his 11+ so was sent to a technical school so he actually learnt how to lay a row of bricks or how to beat out lead flashing. He did end up doing a PhD in Physics but I suspect his early school years explain why he’s always been much more practical than me. My wife was a stage tech during uni so I’ll happily defer to her for joinery. I can just about solder a copper pipe or big pads on a PCB.

SystemReady is already a thing. When it becomes mandatory for design wins hopefully it will become more common place.

I wouldn’t say that, it’s just there is a lot in vendor kernels and little incentive to upstream stuff for older SoCs that have already shipped. It’s true Google has come around to the importance of not drifting too far from upstream and hopefully we are starting to see the results of that change in attitude.

As I understand it my colleges in the QC landing team @ Linaro spend a lot of time getting stuff into the various upstreams.

This does seem rather self destructive. I guess the brain drain will continue.

I understand why all the things that require accelerators are so expensive but what the hell are red diamonds? Surely anything not carbon in the matrix would make them less diamond like?

I run Circe in Emacs because it’s lightweight and integrates with the modeline for not overly distracting notifications.

You can, they are called canals. Look at the Nile delta and the network of irrigation trenches used to spread water from the river to the wider areas. There are a number of dam projects in Africa which are all about managing water flows.

The principle problem is when your divert water it’s usually at a cost to another area that was using it.
