What has changed about RPN or calculators in the past year?

You can check the release notes to be sure, but generally you can just perform the update and move on with life. Backing up your data is always a smart precaution.

“We” haven’t moved anywhere, I just chimed in for the first time with my interpretation of what the other person was talking about. Jeez.

GitHub is a git hosting provider, but it also has its own service software for all the peripherals - organizations, issues, pull requests, all the user account management stuff, etc. AFAIK those parts are mostly/all proprietary.

Generate the binaries during test execution from known (version controlled) inputs, plaintext files and things. Don’t check binaries into source control, especially not intentionally corrupt ones that other maintainers and observers don’t know what they may contain.

You can use it for normal applications that aren’t sort of “system components” like a VPN. So if you want to install some office/productivity software, or a web browser, or a music/video player, then a Flatpak would be a reasonable choice. For most of those cases you would probably still choose the RPM if it is available, but Flatpak is also fine if not.

Beehaw defederated from a lot of other major instances.

I just went through this exact process (not for the first time) two weeks ago with a bug in the golang standard library. Fun times. Deep in the dependency stack of a container build my team doesn’t own so who knows when I’ll get a fixed version.

Something like what I wrote in my other comment: https://lemmy.world/comment/6698854

Two businesses can trademark the same name if they are operating in different industries. Or, the name could have spaces or punctuation that renders the same as a TLD.

Go Ogle Photographic & Paparazzi Inc. could have a reasonable claim to the same .google TLD. The registration fee is chump change for Google/Alphabet to make sure this can’t happen.

I’m sure Google didn’t buy those for the purpose of actually using them, but rather to prevent someone else from registering and using them.

OK

A university degree in Canada costs 16-20k CAD per year for tuition/books/etc, more if you’re an international student. Plus residence fees and food and other costs of living if the student isn’t staying at home and just commuting to university.

There’s a reason Canada suffers from brain drain of so many of our skilled workers leaving. Other places, particularly the USA, are popular destinations because they are better opportunities economically.

Yes

It’s a sort of chicken-and-egg problem, also similar to the social media critical mass problem.

Creators won’t move until the audience is there. Audience won’t go until their favourite creators are there. Both won’t move until the platform can handle the traffic, but the platform doesn’t have the money to afford the required infrastructure until they have revenue coming in from large audiences…

Same as the others - nothing.

Twitter clone by Facebook. The worst part is they’re implementing ActivityPub and will federate with Lemmy and Mastodon instances.

Threads is not a Lemmy instance, but it is implementing the ActivityPub protocol and thus will be able to federate with Lemmy instances, Mastodon servers, presumably kbin, Friendica, GNU Social, etc.

True of single player, campaign-focused games. Not really the expected outcome for games focusing on the online multiplayer experience.
