Operating Systems: Three Easy Pieces by Remzi H. Arpaci-Dusseau & Andrea C. Arpaci-Dusseau (University of Wisconsin-Madison) is an excellent book and used by many universities worldwide. Extremely well written and it’s one of the only textbooks I’ve ever completed from start to end.
It’s also completely free: https://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~remzi/OSTEP/
Thanks for cross-posting and tagging me 😄! Perhaps lemmy should push a notification if it’s cross-posted.
Are you in Europe? This is a thing I’ve seen in Europe, but not in other countries.
I knew about the “Thour” meme, but still didn’t get why the directory turned compressed. My guess is that by licking the lemon, the directory folds in on itself, thus becoming compressed.
Answered this with a screenshot in this thread:
For those of you still struggling (like me), here’s an image:
… I am 100% certain that if they switched to being individually wrapped tomorrow, a complaint about excessive packaging would be one of the top posts here.
You’re undeniably right. The best situation would be to not have any wrapping at all… but with the crumb situation, that’d be another top post here :/

You can use add-ons in Firefox for Android. Not sure what version you’re running (I’m on 125.2.0) and I can use many extensions:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/ublock-origin/ should directly let you add or remove the extension.
That’s not a very valid argument.
First and foremost, most devs probably see it as a job and they do what they’re told. They don’t have the power to refute decisions coming from above.
Second, in this economy where jobs are scarer than a needle in multiple haystacks, people are desperate to get a job.
Third, yes, there may be some Microsoft (M$) fan-people who end up being devs at M$. Sure, they may willingly implement the things upper management may request. However, I’m not sure whether that’s true for most of the people who work at M$.
Your comment suggests to shift the blame to the devs who implement the features that upper management request for. Don’t shoot the (MSN) messenger.
For anyone else who doesn’t want to spend 10 seconds trying to imagine it.
Looks cool and I’m glad something new has arrived after nitter.
A few things, however:
See Wendover Productions’ most recent video, “The Increasing Reality of War in Space” (from around 7:54); they talk about SpaceX launching unknown satellites and not reporting it either.
Edit: nvm I’m an idiot, I just got the joke.

In typography, kerning is the process of adjusting the spacing between characters in a proportional font, usually to achieve a visually pleasing result. Kerning adjusts the space between individual letterforms while tracking (letter-spacing) adjusts spacing uniformly over a range of characters.
Will you (the community) be setting your username to your public username (a username you use everywhere) or something that’s different from your public username?
Idk why, but signal feels more… personal(?) and I’d hate for general people to stumble across my signal account just by guessing whether my signal username is my public username.
I’d be fine if they got my Discord account, mastodon account, Lemmy account (they’re all different usernames anyway) because they’re public-ish accounts. Signal feels less public and I’d want to go with a username that only I can send to people I know.
It looks like there will be a message requests area and it looks like usernames can also be changed (should a username ever be doxxed).
I’m still on the fence.
See also: Nominative Determinism. If I remember correctly, there was a subreddit about this.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nominative_determinism
Nominative determinism is the hypothesis that people tend to gravitate towards areas of work that fit their names. The term was first used in the magazine New Scientist in 1994, after the magazine’s humorous “Feedback” column noted several studies carried out by researchers with remarkably fitting surnames. These included a book on polar explorations by Daniel Snowman and an article on urology by researchers named Splatt and Weedon. These and other examples led to light-hearted speculation that some sort of psychological effect was at work.

Isn’t Angstrom 10^-10 meters? And nanometers 10^-9 meters? So 20A (assuming A = Angstrom) is just 2nm?
Are they trying to say that by moving to this new era, they’ll go single digit Angstrom i.e., 0.x nm?
