I do not understand the urge to start from scratch instead of forking an existing, mature codebase. This is typically a rookie instinct, but they aren’t rookie so there’s perhaps an alternative motive of some sort.

China saw the world’s biggest outflow of high-net-worth individuals last year and is expected to see a record exodus of 15,200 in 2024, dealing a further blow to its economy, a new report says.

It’s interesting how through the neoliberal lens this looks like “a blow” to their economy. But from a Keynesian or MMT lens, China doesn’t need high net worth individuals to drive the economy. Public investment can and has done this in China as well as many other parts of the world.

From another angle, letting high net worth individuals flee, could reduce apparent wealth inequality in China.

Happy Canada Day!

You can get the binary from the project’s website. Still not suggesting to f around with it.

If you have root you could theoretically add Memtest86+ to the boot order. There’s tools that allow adding boot entries in EFI. You could probably place a Memtest86+ binary in your EFI partition and register it with the EFI firmware. But I’m not suggesting to do it since you could make the machine unbootable and the problem might be on the storage path. I’m just thinking of should be possible.

Most machines I owned that had kernel panics had either an NVIDIA or an AMD GPU graphics adapter, along with bad memory.

FTFY

Even as far back as 2010 the corpo I worked for had an official travel protocol that dictated backing up Blackberries, factory resetting them, crossing the border, then restoring them from the cloud. That was for crossing any border.

Title says growth, article paragraph says contraction. Yeah technically contraction is negative growth. Still misleading.

While true, I’m discussing the significance of exposure. That is what amount you can get into your body from different sources and the appropriate attention they should receive. PFAS in PTFE are residues from shit manufacturing. Even when they’re present, the amounts aren’t large. Stain-resistant furniture and carpets on the other hand are literally laced with PFAS to achieve this. So are most water resistant jackets. Household upholstery sprays like Scotchgard had PFOS as their active ingredient. Not sure what PFAS they use today. I know of multiple people who read a few titles about PFAS, replaced their cookware and kept laying naked on their PFAS-laden couches until I alerted them to it.

E: Forgot about food packaging.

🪦

SOFTWARE WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE STABLE

Someone with a case of brain rot.

PFOA is a relatively larger compound, and smaller “short-chain” PFAS that industry now more commonly produces and claims are safer were absorbed at higher levels – up to nearly 60% of one short chain compound dose was absorbed by the skin.

“This is important because we see a shift in industry towards chemicals with shorter chain lengths because these are believed to be less toxic – however the trade-off might be that we absorb more of them, so we need to know more about the risks involved,” said study co-author Stuart Harrad.

Oh nice. Well at least shorter chain PFAS degrade faster, but that’s a shit consolation prize.

Non-stick cookware isn’t a significant source of PFAS exposure because while technically a PFAS, PTFE is a stable polymer. This is important because you might have replaced your cookware and feel safe while not realizing that the sofa and the rug in your home are spewing PFAS in the air every time you brush against them. I threw out a nice sofa because of this. Furniture and carpets are the main source for residential PFAS exposure. Unless your water is super contaminated of course.

As many have pointed out, price wise it’s not competitive. But more than that, the main feature of the Pi is its software support. I buy a Pi not because it’s got the top specs but because I know I can load a rock solid OS with security support and I won’t have to think about it. This is a problem for every Pi competitor.

On one hand I’d like it if the Democrats put up someone more certain to beat Trump. On the other Joe has shown he supports labor and things are moving in the right direction in that regard. I’d hate it if he we get a corpo Democrat that halts this progress.

Brilliant idea squid. You’re getting promoted!

And boy did Boeing have to bring out a lot of mops on Thursday. But this time, it kinda, sorta just maybe wasn’t Boeing’s fault.

I’m sorry what now?

They’ll do an unprofitable thing? X

A masterpiece.

Agreed. But I’m very afraid. I don’t know if they’ll be able to make him step down, and I don’t know if an alternative would be able to close the gap with pipsqueak.
