that’s the structure of a bluray disk. It includes all that the player needs to play it (e.g. menus, chapters, etc). The STREAM folder contains the actual video, probably in a .m2ts file (you can convert it to mkv using ffmpeg or similar tools)

there is for sure a lot of snarky students who believe they are too clever, but it does happen. There are tons of awful teachers out there. I had a science teacher who refused to acknowledge that heat and temperature were no the same

while these news are great. it is good to remember than decreasing emissions is not enough.

if you see in a room that is filling fast with water and you are about to drown, would you be relieved if water simply started pouring a bit more slowly?

it will take decades for the atmosphere to get back to normal even if we halted new emissions

but is that enough to make a Pacifica cool? I think not.

pretty sure they want democrats to wake up and change their policies and the only leverage they have is their vote.

Because Wine often needs to run .Net applications and Mono is the easiest way for them to do that.

they were already maintaining a fork of Mono for quite some time. This seems to me like a ceremonial torch passing to make them the ‘official’ owner of the project.

while you might be right some things are more important. why is your comment not directed to people actively blocking these changes? why not just agree to them and move on with these “more important things”. the PR was submitted. the effort had been done already. blocking it is an statement on its own.

unfortunately some local governments are already pushing back to its continued reintroduction. Some have even said that now that it’s has been declassified as endangered “there is no need for further reintroduction efforts”.

Even if it’s a nice solution the licensing issue, they are still deceiving their users. I don’t think I have seen anything like them but they should be clear that they are bluetooth.

Curious. I always imagined it was a reference to the folklore create ‘Imp’.

I think Saru is the best that came out of Discovery. I think the character will rank high in Trek’s Pantheon for a long time.

some contributor agreement does force people to surrender their copyright. MongoDB is probably the most infamous example.

I had the same though. No way they would choose that wording otherwise. they will probably just make it available, also make people who contribute sign their copyright away.

Same goes for words in foreign languages. it just causes confusion. I like how eclipse went for “temurin” (anagram for runtime) for their OpenJDK distribution. no way to cause confusion.

this guy is 100% committed to give nazis a platform, right?

terrariums and motorcycles. the worst

I enjoyed reading this a lot. thanks for sharing

their veto to recognize them at the UN was also a pretty big clue.
