Gabe is absolutely right on this. If it doesn’t completely recenter the first person shooter genre, it’s not really a half life game.

Of course. That bro is OG and gonna throw a chair atcha.

Aka “Windows subsystem for Linux”

Even if you do have an MMU, there’s no guarantee that you’ll get a segmentation fault from a memory bug. You can still just get the weird side effects, if you fail to access the incorrect memory.

Undefined behaviour means exactly that. You have no idea what you could get.

Yeah. He’s just wearing some kind of standard Bajoran civilian uniform, right?

(And the military Bajoran uniform is red)

Well, they ain’t starting from scratch, cause they designed a bunch of nukes for the USSR.

They almost certainly have workable designs in a file drawer, and the old facilities are all in Ukraine too. It’s a question of how much decommissioning those got in the nineties, and how long it takes to enrich the uranium.

I just think they’re neat.

Not embedded (using Jerboa).

I got banned too… It turns out that if you say that there are some Russians on a list of entities that Americans can’t do business with, that’s racist against Russians, I guess.

Like any other convention, it’s not really a big deal either way. Fortran gets along just fine with 1-indexing.

Apparently tankies on Lemmy don’t like Linux any more after some Russian contributors were removed from the maintainers list.

The contributors were removed because they or their employers (or maybe ex-employers) appeared on the US list of Specially Designated Nationals (SDN). It is illegal for Americans such as Linus Torvalds to conduct business with entities that appear on that list.

Kill -9 is a command on Unix and Linux to send signal 9 (SIGKILL) to a process. That’s the version of kill that is the most reliable and has immediate effect.

Taskkill is a Windows command line program. I believe that taskkill /f uses the TerminateProcess() API. This is more forceful than the End Task button on the Task Manager. There is a different End Process button on the Task Manager that does use TerminateProcess().

TerminateProcess() is pretty reliable, but it doesn’t form part of the C signals stack on Windows like kill -9. So for instance, if you’re doing process control on Python, you need to use a special Windows-only API to access TerminateProcess().

It’s not clear if they properly matched the Reynolds numbers and other similarity parameters to properly make this comparison.

Would a fork be technically viable if Americans and American businesses can’t participate (because the fork works with SDN entities)? Maybe.

The reality is that the Linux Foundation is in the United States, and Linus is a naturalized US citizen who lives in Oregon (at least on Wikipedia). So they both will have to pay attention to avoid transacting business with individuals and companies on the SDN list. That is the law in the United States.

E. coli is a coliform bacteria. That means it’s found in, you guessed it …shit. So E. coli is a great topic for a shitpost.

How the E coli gets from the shit to the meat is left as an exercise to the reader.

Really I worked a project once that just had post-its stuck to the wall. It worked as well as Jira does.

This is NonCredibleDefense. So it’s true if it would be funny if it were true.

Ukraine gave up those nukes in exchange for security assurances. If Russia is going to go back on its assurance, then Ukraine should be able to go back to the nukes. Fair is fair.

As a former SSR that held nuclear weapons on its territory before 1968, they even oughta be free and clear with respect to the non proliferation treaty.
