While 50 is north enough and the absolute majority of Canadians live south of it, “Northern Canada” generally refers to the three territories (as opposed to the ten provinces), that start at 60 (mostly, there are some islands south of that).

As it should be… Navigators could determine latitudes pretty accurately by using astronomy. It was the longitude that was a big problem (maybe that’s part of the reason Japan is placed in the middle of the Pacific).

I’m sitting on an Aeron at work, it’s good, but I can’t in good conscience pay that much for a chair. I was recently on the market for a new office chair and extensively researched it. It really looks like it’s a hit or miss with every chair in every price range, and I was very seriously considering replacing my Hyken with another Hyken. I decided to go with the IKEA Markus and have been sitting on it for about a month. I’m only moderately happy with it, may even return it before the year is up although I’d hate doing it.

That is almost certainly Staples Hyken. Comfortable chair but cheaply made, mine started disintigrating in a couple of years.

It’s a way for the vehicle owner to broadcast to the world that they have a small dick.

You can’t successfully use a home email server.

Mostly true (server can be home but using the ISP network directly probably won’t work)

You can’t successfully use an email server on a (cloud) VPS.

Bullshit

You can’t successfully use an email server on a bare metal machine in your own datacenter.

Bullshit

As such, it is my distinct displeasure to declare the death of SMTP. The protocol is no longer usable. And as we can see, this devolution occurred organically.

Bullshit

I wonder if the process is open source or we just take their word that it’s privacy preserving. Anyway, privacy is not the only problem with online advertising, so I’m not going to give up adblocking any time soon.

It’s exaggerated but yes, this map really reminds me of many large Chinese cities. It’s probably true every major city has a People’s Square. I think the map is based on Beijing.

Ah, that is the answer! 🙏

Indeed, it was the semi-annual compounding and effective interest rate that threw me off.

Also note that if it’s just for personal use, you don’t have to have a domain for HTTPS. You can self sign, or create your own certificate authority, you just need to clients to trust it. But domains can be cheap or even free, so it’s better to get one so you don’t have to specially configure your devices.

Someone once told me their grandparents in Brazil were part of a community where Latin was spoken as the primary language, but I can’t find any information about it online in English.

I also always start with “crane” 😁

Is it actually running snap or just unpacking its content and running it as a normal flatpak?

Arch does not directly link openssh to liblzma, and thus this attack vector is not possible.

吃鸡 literally means “eat chicken” but it’s just an expression and here it refers to gaming. Like “eat crow” is an English idiom that makes no sense if translated literally to other languages.

C# and C++ are not “from same framework”… They are as different as two fairly modern programming languages can be.
