Back in the 80s, Ada was the latest greatest thing, and was going to replace everything. It was a pretty great language (memory safety, ...... ) but what killed it was the poor implementation of the library support structure. Too many unnecessary recompiles were triggered -- big projects with superfast special-build Ada compile computer just couldn't keep up -- the build never finished unless all development paused too. Pascal was a toy language, C++ was a chaotic churn, so what was left? Yup, C it was. ;^(

Only some ed and enterprise users, normally 23h2 has EOLed Nov. 2025.

where melting = sublimation (solid turns directly into gas).

The venting of a CO2 tank is limited by evaporation until the remaining liquid freezes solid. Then the venting is limited by the melting of the solid CO2, which is much slower.

Reolink Lumus produces a scrambled rtsp stream which can be descrambled with neolink (https://github.com/thirtythreeforty/neolink). Some use an encrypted rtsp stream which must be decrypted on a server -- check carefully. Fed descrambled stream to zoneminder for the detection/saving.

"Avoid looking at source code..." -- Well that explains it, No requirements documents, can't look at source code, so only the man pages are left, and since sort order isn't mentioned in the ls man pages, locale's LC_COLLATE is ignored. I await the 10 years of bad locale implementations done in C to be repeated in Rust ;^( My real issue is making the rust coreutils the default in 25.10.

You exaggerate, no chains needed when they generated 300 Trillion dollars worth of Paypal stablecoins! A mistake, but if done on purpose, the next step is to convert to every available digital currency asap, crashing them all.

"More than 50 years ago, the iconic London Bridge was dismantled in England and reassembled brick by brick in the middle of the Arizona desert—now serving as the historic centerpiece of Lake Havasu City." Perhaps the poster is thinking that Tower Bridge is London Bridge, just like the nitwit who bought London Bridge and moved it to AZ.

Stealing it remains perfectly legal, and is very cost effective.

So 20% of TCP connections get get terminated early, with half of those classisified as Post-Syn -- sounds like tarpitting to me. That's a passive response that flips the asymmetry of the attack to use resources on the attacker side and none on the victim's. Awwww, poor Cloudflare's servers being used in a DDOS attack are being tied up!

Rather than simply drain the condensate from the room to the outside, have the fan kick it up into the external heat dissipation coils, cooling them, and gaining much efficiency. Westinghouse did this in the 60s with their small room air conditioners, and produced a unit which cooled much better than the competition's equivalent model.

The exact situation of Earth/Luna, cleverly eliminated by the lower limit on the weight (Luna is 7.3e22 Kg. Note that the Luna orbit is NEVER convex with respect to the sun. This whole redefinition is to clearly eliminate Luna as a planet, whereas in the previous definition, it was, although never admitted.

Gasp, H.L. Mencken was wrong! "Nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public." ;^D

See Hal Clement's "The Nitrogen Fix (1980) for what happens if Nitrogen fixing becomes widespread, and what could be more widespread than algae?

You don't look through the binoculars, you use them to project an image of the sun on a flat white surface (6-8' away). That image is 6" - 18" across, is perfectly safe to watch, and you can use this technique to see sunspots (and planet Merc eclipses too!).
