Absolutely. Like you say, it just doesn’t happen in large streams, and the threshold is probably a lot larger than you think, since on average maybe 10% of viewers actually participate in chat. The dynamic starts shifting at around 1,000 simultaneous viewers, in my experience, between chat being readable and interactable, and being just spam. That’s still plenty big enough to qualify for partner, and even make a living off of streaming alone.

Careful, or the next thing you know, we’ll have lightning powered tumbling sheep evolving, as a defense response.

Shit shit shit, I just remembered I haven’t attended English class all semester.

Shit shit shit, I can’t remember my locker combination, and I can’t find the orientation sheet that has it, also I can’t find my class schedule, I have no idea what class I’m supposed to be in right now.

Plus a few other variations. All High School. I dunno why the focus on High School, I’m 34. I get one of these once or twice a month.

Discord gained popularity and maintains it, in spite of the many reasons to avoid it, because of usability and feature richness. Slack, Teams, Matrix, Telegram, they are miles ahead of everyone else in the live-chat space, when it comes to user experience.

This was an interesting article about some tech I’ve never heard of before, but it has little to nothing to do with Discord’s overall success.

In addition to everything else mentioned, in your scenario, you would also need to pull 2 neutrons from somewhere. A helium nucleus has 2 protons and 2 neutrons, but each H nucleus (generally) is just 1 proton. The 2 neutrons are critical in holding nuclei together.

There’s literally no such thing as a one-lead voltage meter. Voltage is, by definition, the difference in potential energy between two points.

Any tool that can give a voltage reading with one probe has a second probe you’re not considering, or is estimating voltage based on a some assumptions about current or some other factor being measured.

rsync, for sure. That’s what I used when I had to migrate a 10TB datastore to a new machins.

A DNS Proxy/Forwarder server? That’s where you would configure how your .internal domain resolves to IPs on your internal network. Machines inside the network make their DNS queries to that server, which either serves them from cache, or from the local mappings, for forwards them off to a public/ISP server.

Honestly, I was wondering the same thing.

He knows the answer. It’s a rhetorical question, meant to piss off iPhone users.

For my part, I agree. I don’t celebrate death. I sure as hell ain’t gonna mourn evil people, or pretend the world isn’t objectively better off without them. I’m also not gonna lose any sleep over other people doing it. I’ll happily celebrate any good things resulting from their death. But death itself isn’t to be celebrated, not for me.

The Apache 404 page doesn’t really seem that interesting.

Dark Souls and Syardew Valley.

TIL that the AI character Roko Basilisk in Questionable Cobtent is a reference.

As someone with 0 investment in this whole ecosystem, I saw and perused this article like a week ago, and my immediate impression was “Why is this guy constantly saying ‘Wayland breaks XXXXX’? Wayland isn’t breaking anything, it’s new tech. Wayland has certain features, or it doesn’t or doesn’t yet. The only folks breaking anything are those swapping use of X with Wayland, within various apps or tech stacks, potentially prematurely, where Wayland doesn’t yet have the full set of features needed.”

Whoever this is seems to have a really poor understanding of long-term software development, despite being way more invested in it than I am.

I’m sorry, mouthwash peels your skin off?!

Fair enough.

I like TypeScript less for its ability to categorize my grocery list and more for its ability to stop anyone from putting cyanide on it.

I was actually gonna ask about this point, thanks for the context.

“It’s like e-mail, but for social media. You create an account with GMail or Yahoo or whoever, and that lets you interact with anyone else with an e-mail address, doesn’t matterof they’re using the same e-mail service as you.”
