Isn’t this the whole idea behind flatpak but everyone seems to hate it

The Riker Maneuver

It’s complicated. It’s sort of colony animal, like a slime mold or a portuguese man-o-war. Either way, you shouldn’t touch it.

It’s your Beanniversary 🫘

Andy B, - good first name for a tester

Yes

“cool”

The slap was because you were blaming the person who actually contributed more to the driver.

The correct response is: Wow! The delivery fee was only 3.49! How do they expect someone to work for such a pathetic wage!

NO! I don’t think you understood at all!

Someone else hired a person and paid them 3.49 to drive hot food around.

Then a customer, who also paid the first person paid the driver more than their employer did.

If I could slap you over the internet right now I would.

You’ll probably have to generate a lot of plots, graphs and figures. Choosing the right type of figure to explain the data is an important skill - maybe have a play with some of the examples from https://r-graph-gallery.com/

User: I’ve tried everything

Support: Have you tried <first step in documentation>?

This is the early internet - a self hosted, bunch of regular people just doing stuff for stuff’s sake.

Also https://www.cockeyed.com - decentralized, zero budget fun.

In some ways, the low-medium technical barrier was perfect. If you could do some basic html or PHP, you were a creator.

There’s no plastic in an aluminum can. Both glass and aluminum are almost totally recycled into their base materials. Aluminum is lighter to transport to and from the recycling facility.

There is no way to dump energy into nothing

Really? Nobody can think of anything to do with free energy?

Mine Bitcoin? Desalination Plant? Doomsday Device? Carbon Capture & Storage?

I think that’s the gimmick - it’s like a spot the difference once you’ve done the puzzle and are still in Minnesota with nothing else to do.

That is a good question, but I suspect if you tried this in real life it would still show static.

• The waves are amplified with a circuit that attempts to find a signal even if it’s very weak (so you can get a picture even if you’re close or very far from the tv station)
• At a certain point, the electromagnetic field from the running TV itself would start to get picked up

I suspect a better thought experiment would be if you just disconnected the input and amplification circuit entirely from the CRT tube, in which case you would probably just get white as the electron beam scans back and forth without any modulation.
