Why does dumping water out of boots have instructions? Isn’t it like dumping water out of any other container?

Thanks for the warning.

If they had ads for themselves, I assume they had income. But they say that their platform doesn’t have ads. Where did they get the money to pay their own ads?

What do leaf blowers do that rakes don’t? I don’t remember the last time I saw or heard a leaf blower.

This one, if by unix he also means modern linux systems. Nowadays you can simply use tar xf my-file.tar.whatever and it should work on most linux systems (it worked on every modern linux system I’ve tried and every compressed tar file I’ve tried). I don’t think it is hard to remember the xf part.

Due to its reduced instruction set; it uses less power in general

If that is true I don’t think it can be attributed to it being RISC

I should note that there’s also the option to simply save a post or comment (the star in the web interface). It can then be found under “Saved” on your user page.

(pretty sure they are talking about the scary book that is the Communist Manifesto, which is visible in the picture. I think it is about a ghost haunting Europe or something)

Watt is the amount of water flowing out at the end

Shouldn’t it instead be the sum of the kinetic energy of all water molecules that come out the other end per unit of time (ie. total amount of energy you use move your volume of water with a certain pressure in a second)?

I never got the pipe analogy. Since liquid water can’t be compressed, wouldn’t the amperes be directly proportional to the volts and to the size of the pipe, assuming there are no air bubbles? Also, supposedly resistance only reduces current, but when I think of hair in a pipe, the pressure after the obstruction would also be lower (because pressure is directly proportional to the amount of water that flows)

I think in the US there are alerts (called amber alerts) for when people go missing in the hopes of increasing the chance of finding the person by raising awareness.

Are you in the All tab? You can also sort by most comments (that doesn’t take recent activity into account, but for that there are other sorts). If you are only finding dead communities, it probably means you have reached the end of lemmy and that there is nothing more to see.

These vpns seem to be quite a good target since at least the one my university uses is run as a setuid executable, so if there is a vulnerability in there, you can execute code as root that wasn’t intended to be executed as root.

As TonyTonyChopper this thread said, sometimes that obscure software is what you are required to use in your institution, or they don’t offer support for anything else.

The confusion probably arose because the authors spelled it as «facade» rather than «façade» as if the cedilha were just decoration in the french word.

Some dubs (as in translated dialogue, not inept people) pronounce it that way.

Couldn’t scaled sort or new sort in the all tab already do that? There’s also the community browser. You can sort communities by different criteria there.

a beginner friendly distro should have the convention to install apps be by GUI instead of TUI, and guides should be updated to reflect this

It is a lot harder (and less helpful) in a written guide to tell someone to press a button in menu such-and-such; telling someone to open the terminal and copy paste a command is easier.

In addition (though I do not know if it applies so much to gui package managers) GUI apps also have the tendency to not have a stable interface, so a blender 2 tutorial will often not be useful for someone using blender 3, because the interface will have changed and buttons that were once in one place now are somewhere else or no longer exist. CLI programs for some reason are a lot more backwards compatible in my experience.

I think GUI apps should ideally be designed to be usable without the user knowing where something is beforehand (though that is not always possible, like in complex software handling a lot of stuff a new user may not be familiar with, when they only want to achieve a certain specific goal), making mentioning how the UI works almost superfluous in those cases.
