Among field troops in Vietnam it became common knowledge that ingestion of a small amount of C-4 would produce a “high” similar to that of ethanol. Others would ingest C-4, commonly obtained from a Claymore mine, to induce temporary illness in the hope of being sent on sick leave.
Not accurate. They don’t have enough refrigerators to drive bodies all the way back. They are simply leaving deceased where they fell, and report them as ‘missing in action’. Mass grave is like a luxury option.
Putin won’t invade you
It has always been possible to live without petroleum and coal, without deforestation and extinctions, without international finance capital and instant digital commerce, without immigration laws and border walls, without corporate and state surveillance and militarized police.
To get to such a future, though, we need to pull the emergency brake on this future first. Then we can do the work of remembering how to survive without all these things, the way humans have done for thousands and thousands of years.
Yeah, no. I’d like heating in my apartment during the winter. Coal is kinda essential for that, until we upgrade all our generation to wind and nuclear power. The fact that humans survived without coal in the past, well, they simply died by the thousands.
It really depends. One specific shop near my home has good quality frozen meat pancakes and dumplings. Yeah I have made dumplings by hand some 20 years ago, but those frozen ones are simply better. Maybe I can do some exotic dumplings with a buckwheat flour and a lot of eggs, but that would not necessarily be better, just different.
On the other hand, pasta sauce prepared from scratch will always taste better than store-bought one, mainly because the stores here only sell ketchup and mayo, and pretty much all pasta sauce here is some variety of tomato concentrate with a bit of carrots.
If you want to understand how 3D projection works, it’s better to solve a few trigonometric equations by hand on a piece of paper, then copy these equations to your Python code.
If you just want to quickly make your own 3D renderer, simply use OpenGL API and the corresponding projection matrix. It will run the same exact formulas inside the driver, just in a 4x4 matrix form, and you can simply experiment with modifying each element of your projection matrix to make your 3D scene rotate the way you want, without bothering to understand the math.
Simply copying some formula from the net will most probably fail.
Torvalds kicked out a bunch of Russia-based kernel maintainers.
They were just called ‘tomatoes’ on the label. They also were more sweet than sour, and over-ripened.
You can use plum tomatoes, they are usually the cheapest, and will have the taste closest to the tomato paste.
I’ve just copypasted URLs from your post so I could click them after Lemmy converts them to hyperlinks in my comment. But then you’ve copied the images directly, with extra explanation. I feel like this turned out to be bigger effort than necessary.
Anyway, my wife liked the centibus.
What about systemctl poweroff ?
Comrade S-70 was stealthily attempting to fly to the West while spreading capitalist propaganda, however it had repented and commited suicide mid-air via an AA missile it stole from the Voronezh airbase.
A batallion of engineers will be sent to re-education camp to prevent further accidents.
Definitely! Win-Tab (properly called Meta-Tab) is used to switch activities in KDE Plasma. With this simple key combination, I gain another 15 virtual desktops.
Back in the 80386 days there was one model of BIOS that would print ‘CPU not found’ if you had your CRT monitor and VGA videocard plugged in.
It was a Linux joke, nevermind.
Is this systemd?
At this point russians target whatever will make bigger news. If putin cannot make other countries respect his power, he’ll at least show everyone how unhinged he is.
Considering how the plans for the counterattack were leaked by everyone and their mom last year, this time they did the right thing with secrecy.
it’s used to verify that OpenGL ES2 works on your system. It’s the variant of 3D graphics drivers that is used on smartphones. Many apps nowadays write their GFX frontend with GLES2 so it uses the same code on phones and PCs, and if they compile the app to run in the web browser, WebGL is also based on GLES2.
