I suppose in about 4.5 billion years the Andromedans can start committing also. (That or nobody can since it won’t be the Milky Way any more)

Rust is even easier, you probably have some you aren’t even using. Check in the bikeshed.

Maybe it’s specifically meant to be used on boot USB sticks/memory-cards and optical discs? If so then maybe this is about the host filesystem and not what’s inside the images being booted?

That’s the only way I can make sense of this, but I haven’t heard of it before, so I just don’t know.

I wonder how 2kHz would do. Or 10kHz.

I’m surprised existing systems weren’t mentioned.

Booting from the network has been a thing since the 80s and is now standardized, I guess the main ‘new’ thing here is using https instead of tftp

True. I suppose there are still many Cars, or Monsters, or chefs, etc.

They are all Toy Story characters. I don’t know what they are going to do when they run out.

I loaded it up in Firefox Focus so I could accept cookies without it mattering (but it didn’t ask for some reason)

Anyway the About page has nothing. But the Terms, and Privacy pages redirect to a company called TechnologyAdvice that this seems be a subsidiary of, and that one is in Nashville, Tennessee, USA.

“Fast open-source firmware for the PineTime smartwatch with many features, written in modern C++.”

So it’s a lot like apt, but with a huge name conflict.

And indeed 1F414 is a lower (hexadecimal) number than 1F95A, so in the absence of other criteria I’m sure in most systems it would sort first.

They might not know the name for the extension of alphabetical order to all characters in Unicode (and neither do I) but it’s logical to associate it with alphabetical since it’s similar in concept.

Last night when I saw this post I happened to support it at a perfect round number.

To have a chance of being made into a real set, it needs a little under 5 times that number of supporters - specifically this weird composite number 2^4 * 5^4.

This book also basically predicted cryptocurrency (but not the blockchain stuff)

Are the notifications actionable? (Snoozing alarms, canned replies to messages, etc)

I couldn’t find that important detail on the website easily.

I don’t know any CSS (despite reading memes about it like this) but I do know that the bottom of that page has a link to something called Grid Garden

For the benefit of any of Today’s 10,000 I just want to point out that this is a reference to a quote from a movie.
The same movie stars Danny Trejo as Machete.
This movie is Spy Kids 2.

I wonder if it’s a compile error to have multiple conflicting COMEFROM statements

I think there’s at least one INTERCAL implementation where that’s how you start multi-threading

This meme is older than rust.

So… What is it?

(I actually looked it up already, but I want descriptions in posts like this)

I think this might be the first of these I’ve seen where pretty much all the comments are just agreement.
