I think he's given you examples of where music can be priced "below the impulse buy threshold". Supporting the claim are several studies that pirates or piracy advocates are often familiar with. https://www.cnet.co

I used to mine bitcoin on my VPCEC right after GPU support was available. I had bought it specifically to have a portable 1080p screen while in college for CS. Until just a few months ago, it was my Plex server. (It still works)

It does work if you spray it directly in the nose. It does not work orally. I wonder if they think that CVS will be removing the spray.

I was wondering about that, actually. I am interested in magic, very much, and I have seen tons and tons. I also felt like it was beyond anything I have ever seen, and wondered if it would be noticeably different to people who haven't

DHL, which has normally been spectacular, got me the other week. I was getting a package delivered on Monday that I needed by Thursday at noon. It required a signature, so I filled out the release for them to leave it without one. It also h

I wonder if people are actually having their lives "ruined" by vaping. Maybe. What would be worse is if vaping wasn't available and they went from nothing to cigarettes. I guess you'd say those lives would be "devas

Asteroid Day "is the United Nations sanctioned day of public awareness of the risks of asteroid impacts" [0] though in practice, it's a pretty fun day of learning about asteroids through local events and even 24 hours of stre

People don't need to remember and apply formulas. They just need an intuition that they could be applied and how that might change the appearance of the statistics, as a kind of gauge of reliability. A tool for rationalization.

Probably because they prefer, or think they prefer, Google results to DDG results and don't realize that a decent company (ixquick developer) runs the domain StartPage.com https://www.startpage.com/ (which has a very A

I installed it on one server that I only ssh to JUST to use that ebook-convert so I can read anything (epub, mobi, pdf, etc) on the command line. It's so easy to use, detects to- and from-formats from filenames and works on anything.

Most weight your body actually loses (as in not water) is lost as carbon in the CO2 you exhale.

That was the sentence that made it clear it was satire, for me. I was only at about 60% sure before that, based on the hyperbole.

Sure. I'll agree with your definition then! *Ah, what the fork! I just realized you're a GIMPer. You think that thing I said about the 1998 drama is what inferiorhuman was referencing?

333! None of which really compete, but yeah, literally hundreds. Just one big one though, GIMP Painter.

I'm not sure I follow your logic, but if it helps clear anything up, I did emphasize that this was an old story, like twice. I am also aware that Qt is GPL now, and that GIMP has hundreds of forks.

by defective 7y ago
I don't think they even forked it necessarily, and the Qt hack/patch wasn't even published. It was just presented at some Linux thing. This was the only story I could find that resembled a reason for inferiorhuman's prej

Over 20 years ago, Matthias Ettrich made a Qt GUI for GIMP. GIMP community apparently didn't like him doing that, don't know why. It may have had something to do with licensing -- at the time the Qt license meant it wasn't fr

Or roughly $72,000-73,000 per household, assuming 127 million households and working with the numbers in your comment. If we stole all the money from every 10%er household, who control 70% of aggregate household wealth, we'd have 70% o
