The TZ db team have been aware of this since the first announcement in BC.
That said, operating systems need to get the correct files in place.
They're literally Caucasians.
Same here. Nor have I heard of Railway.
I am old enough to remember the Cold War and the quite plausible risk that civilization would be wiped out by nuclear war.
This is similar except the people warning about nuclear weapons are eagerly soliciting venture capital to build more of them.
Would you consider Burgundy at the time part of France?
Very cool images!
What lens are you using? Does it have to cover 135 format?
Are you asking for humanity to be wiped out so you can win an argument on the internet?
Unfortunate choice of words, implies these people are being literally murdered...
I am in ##hntop on Libera.
"Neither Holy, nor Roman, nor an Empire" -- Voltaire, allegedly.
Since the late 80s, Sweden has a system where on the first day when you're off work due to illness, you're not paid ("karensdag").
I started working just before this system was put in place, and there was so much sick leave claimed that people were seriously wondering why Swedish workplaces were so unhealthy. A year after the reform, the numbers fell precipitously.

The creators of this app either didn't watch Evangelion or are huge fans. Hard to say which.
Dubai's brand (before the war) was "you're welcome to come here to make money, but criticize the government and you're out". I'm sure there's a ton of young influencers who don't know the first thing about the place to not have internalized it, but I remember a spate of articles and books about 15 years ago of Westerners falling afoul of the local laws and losing everything.
GNU has its own documentation format called 'info'.
> (... less common section numbers)
One very important section number is 5 - it's for file formats. So if you forget the crontab format, you need to invoke `man 5 crontab` to read about it.
The "cathedral" in ESR's essay wasn't proprietary closed source, it was the GNU project.
> The computer contained about 18,000 vacuum tubes, which were cooled by 80 air blowers. More than 30 meters long, it filled a 9 m by 15 m room and weighed about 30 kilograms. It consumed as much electricity as a small town.
Surprisingly light though...
There's also the possibility that we, as consumers, demand that the political system solves this issue with robust privacy legilsation that prohibits any entity from tracking our phones.
Argh the liberal admixture of different units (mpg, kg, L, hr) in the first table really brings home that this is a UK piece.
Would Teller have had to mail Hoover though? Or just let the concerned people know that Feynman was unsuitable.
The swatch.com website still shows @beats in the upper left corner.
I am unsure whether Swatch still markets watches with digital displays.
I have read a lot of Asimov. That's why I said there's better stuff out there.
Even his contempories were better - Bester and Simak run rings around him.
Or don't. There's so much more better SF out there.
