Yes. I’m not in line to inherit a fuck-you amount, but it’s substantial, and if I move to a poor country and live modestly I should be able to make it last indefinitely.
I’d invest if I was above the poverty line, income-wise, but I’m not. Downward mobility is a bitch.
The thing is, negotiation is always easier than implementation, which is why it comes before.
It’s pretty clear at this point we’re going to stop climate change right around as fast as technology forces us to. I don’t see any other plausible path.
Second person never has a gender in English. Saying “you” should also be fine, or “thee” if you feel like getting your quaker on.
Special requests notwithstanding - the platinum rule here is just to accommodate whatever you reasonably can.
The Mona Lisa is in the public domain, so no, that’s not really a good analogy for a recently published book.
It’s trying to be. You can’t do everything on there you can do on Facebook, though, which is pretty much this meme.
That’s what it’s trying to do. There’s no way in hell it has the same level of technical features, let alone the same network size, though.
That being said, I’ve never been on either.
Yeah, that was actually an awkward wording, sorry. What I meant is that given a non-continuous map from the natural numbers to the reals (or any other two sets with infinite but non-matching cardinality), there’s a way to prove it’s not bijective - often the diagonal argument.
For anyone reading and curious, you take advantage of the fact you can choose an independent modification to the output value of the mapping for each input value. In this case, a common choice is the nth decimal digit of the real number corresponding to the input natural number n. By choosing the unused value for each digit - that is, making a new number that’s different from all the used numbers in that one place, at least - you construct a value that must be unused in the set of possible outputs, which is a contradiction (bijective means it’s a one-to-one pairing between the two ends).
Actually, you can go even stronger, and do this for surjective functions. All bijective maps are surjective functions, but surjective functions are allowed to map two or more inputs to the same output as long as every input and output is still used. At that point, you literally just define “A is a smaller set than B” as meaning that you can’t surject A into B. It’s a definition that works for all finite quantities, so why not?
Well, sometimes it happens. Lemmy was semi-broken during the APIocalypse, and there still isn’t such a thing as a FOSS Facebook, or search engine backend for that matter.
And Linux/BSD are so good proprietary developers rip them off to whatever degree legally permissible.
Sort of? I think this was more of a “see, Americans agree, women are shit”.
True, your policies don’t have to make sense if you win.
That being said, this guy runs a fringe party. They have a whole 3 seats in the Diet’s lower house and none whatsoever in the upper.
It’s the same in Australia. Something about the pacific must make parties switch places.
Pfft, he’s doing an amateur job of intimidating, then. It should have been thumbscrews or something. This way seems self defeating.
Yeah, I’m actually hella curious what the context was here. Why would he want any of that?
At least on the official web app, that doesn’t render as a link. You’ve got to do it as [whatever](u/pageflight@lemmy.world)
Literally just put it in that way, for future notice - there’s no hidden formatting here.
Ah, looks like you beat my edit by a few seconds.
Good to know about the Netscape thing. It looks like Firefox (still, being a successor to NS) does it that way, and Chrome can do it that way. If you’re using a true third option you probably don’t need my help.
For the sake of completeness, on Tor Browser you have to copy the SQLite database from the browser directory, since it’s too locked down to just export the normal way. Then I’d try just subbing it in on an offline Firefox instance and proceeding the normal way. And obviously, use wget over torsocks as well.
I find that the things most likely to disappear (like a tinkerer’s web 1.0 homepage) tend to have limited recursion depth anyway.
A Tumblr blog takes an awfully long time to crawl politely, IIRC, but the end result wasn’t too big on disk. Now I’m wondering how you would pass a cookie to wget, and how you might set a data cap so you can stop and wait for the month to be up before you call it again. I kind of feel like I’ve done a cookie before to get around a captcha or something…
Edit: There’s a couple of ideas for limiting size on StackOverflow. The wget specific one is -Q for quota, which you’d want to set conservatively in case there’s one huge file somewhere, since it only checks between individual downloads.
Looks like there’s a --load-cookies option that will read a browser export of cookies from a file, as well as load POST data and save cookie options if you want to do something interactive that way.
Edit edit: What I’m remembering is actually adding headers, like this.
Question: what do you mean illegal in Canada? AFAIK the only extra laws here are already covered by rule 4.
I’m talking about solar, EVs and so on. It’s straight-up cheaper to not use fossil fuels now, for most things, and the remaining ones seem like they’re inevitably coming.
Don’t worry, I’m still pretty doomer about it. The planet’s going to get a bit messed up in the meanwhile, and we’d have just kind of boiled ourselves like a frog, if we hadn’t gotten lucky with cheap renewables suddenly appearing.
