@fribbledom @rayroy Technically not correct – a mile is defined through a metre: it is 1609.344 metres, that's the definition.
But they did evolve separately, I get your point. It's a fun coincidence. -
@shpuld It's not unheard of: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_welfare_in_Nazi_Germany

@lnxw48a1 Political parties?
What a contrast, a Social Security Number which is barely anything and voter registration which is a bit much. -
@lain Voter registration in the US expires and the requirements vary depending on the state.
Personalausweis is an internal passport, in the US that function is mostly covered by a Social Security Number.
These things are hard to compare.
But also, it is odd to take money from a citizen for an internal passport. -
@dump_stack @MrClon Из будущего сей пост выглядит особенно странно.

@oracle No, Saddam posted for a bit under his post-fake-death identity but hasn't been around in a bit, he's old now.

I don't know where I found this link, but it's important news: #Apple's main #CUPS repository (on #GitHub) has very few commits since the main dev left late last year. There's a new CUPS fork at OpenPrinting.org
#IPP- xrevan86 repeated this.

Damn. I bought another 3D printer.

@adiwan @scribus Not much of a point either, since we already have metal 3D printing in the shape of 4+ axis mills. You just put in a sufficiently big piece of metal and load the 3D model to the CNC software and let it work.
Mill of hot extrusion, metal printing will stay too dangerous and expensive for domestic use for at least a few decades I think. Most homes don't even have the space to fit the machinery or the wiring to run it. -
@nerthos Oops, *mill OR hot extrusion

Meanwhile, in Murrica: "The seven-day average of new cases has climbed above 56,000, a level not seen in the past 12 weeks, and is 14% higher week over week, according to John Hopkins data." https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/19/health/us-coronavirus-monday/index.html

@scribus Majority infection will be the eventual outcome, slower or quicker.
There are two ways to beat a virus: you either completely isolate every infected individual and anyone who is physically capable of contracting it for at least twice the lifespan of the virus, and I'm talking full lockdown, napalmed when opening the door; or you wait until almost the entire population has been infected and developed herd immunity, at which point new infections become very rare if the virus survives at all to mutate over following years.
Full lockdown wasn't done in time and in any case it is impossible considering the social paradigms of any western country, so the option that remains is the latter. Containment can only be reasonably used to slow spread to a rate to which the health system can handle it, but won't stop the spread, no matter how much a government insists on it. And it also vastly increases the number of deaths from existing conditions untreated due to lockdown.

@celesteh @kyzh Items a pity I can't write you this message I just wrote to you. -
@mur2501 @doubleplusgood Rarely such policies are written in such a way that they bar from immigration people like Alexei Navalny.

@clacke @matt Speaking of Russian and Chinese, in Russian the expression is "китайская грамота", i.e. "Chinese writing".

@devurandom MS-DOS was initially a clone of CP/M.
CP/M got renamed as DR-DOS.
Microsoft then made Windows break under DR-DOS. -

@lanodan GLib has a wrapper for malloc that crashes the programme out when encountering NULL, so you won't see any undefined behaviour from GNOME.
-
@mangeurdenuage No, that you having subscription to the other profile should've given it priority, I think.
-
@mangeurdenuage @hakui @deadheat I know. That was some clarification about why you don't have it.

@xerz I guess you could argue that the Android build with tiles that looks like an ugly parody on Windows 8 is what makes up the price of it.
