Thank you!

I would love to know as well!

Neat! I can’t wait for Cosmic, it’s shaping up to be so nice

Very nice! Does/will cosmic have the ability to style buttons? Those are the main factorio UI feature imo (that and so many slots, which aren’t a normal UI element)

Wow, I didn’t know that! That’s absolutely wild

… The root of the thread you’re replying’s main body is stuff JSO has actually achieved.

I’m assuming this is referring to JSO.

Beginning on 1 April, they carried out England-wide blockades of ten critical oil facilities, intending to cut off the supply of petrol to South East England.[33][34][35]

On 26 August, the group blocked seven petrol stations in Central London and vandalised fuel pumps. Forty-three people around London were arrested on suspicion of criminal damage.

On 20 June, the protestors spray painted private jets at a private airfield at Stansted Airport. The group had been targeting a jet belonging to singer Taylor Swift, but could not locate it.[140]

Yes, a lot of their protests are “awareness” stuff (basically none of which do actual damage. Unlike oil, actually!). No, it’s not just that. The UK isn’t an active warzone so bombing stuff is slightly more difficult to justify.

Ahh, that makes sense. Powers of two are real convenient. Your math is a little wrong though: X != (X & 0xFF) + (X >> 8), but X = (X & 0xFF) + (X >> 8) << 8 The right half can be removed entirely if you’re doing modulo 16, since the first 4 bits will always be 0. So it simply becomes X & 15! Much cleaner for sure.

Would you happen to remember what the optimization was, mathematically?

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20036698/subdivide-a-modulo-function-16-bit-but-can-only-do-8-bits-at-a-time#20036828 seems to say that it’s “impossible afaik”, and I can’t seem to optimize it myself (though this kind of math isn’t my forte)

I’m not an OS dev, I have no idea how stuff this low-level works.

I’d suggest some kind of “press this key to view debug information” text (or make it documented but not visible, to avoid people just pressing whatever button is written on the screen)

Hosted on poast, though, which is defederated from literally everyone decent for a good reason

I’ll stick with AP for now but I’ll keep an eye on it, then.

Nostr is culturally vaguely american, and it’s hard to distinguish the libertarians from the Trumpists there (I’ve seen several posts saying “Trump will be better for Bitcoin”, for example). Libertarians and republicans both sell themselves as “small government”.

“Leftist libertarians” generally call themselves anarchists, in my experience.

I checked out Nostr relatively recently and it seemed to me it was full of cryptobros and extremely right-wing people (libertarians, Trump fanatics. A ton of racism and queerphobia, also a bunch of conspiracy thinking). Has anything changed?

It completely breaks them, currently: https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/issues/11139

This applies to at least NewPipe and yt-dlp, probably basically every such tool. Also, if you use logged-in cookies and download, they sometimes ban your account! Fun!

… which is why youtube has recently started blocking non-logged in users

Just to offer some support, you’re right and those are good questions

Sorry, I cannot post as such for I am a fool!

You mean the engine owned by the guy who refuses to abide to the GDPR, thinks anti-suicide messages would be bias, wants to use AI to “remove bias from news articles” (and from reviews)? https://d-shoot.net/kagi.html goes into it, it’s a whole mess.

Right now all search engines suck, unfortunately.
