It's because the precision is overstated in the conversion to imperial. If they're going to convert units they could at least give the correct significant digits. It should have read (if one insists on not just leaving it in metric):

  • Operational altitude: nearly 1 mile (1.5km)
  • Weight: Under 1 ton (imperial or metric. Take your pick, it hardly matter.)

You've just traded down votes for the report button.

I say they are two different use cases. There is often a very wide gulf between a comment that I feel does not contribute to good discussion and one that is so heinous that it needs to be removed. Most of your comments for instance: pretty naive and banal adding little good to the discussion overall, but I don't feel that you've said anything hateful, obscene, or aggressive enough to warrant total removal. Usually I just downvote and move on, especially when I don't want to hear that person's bad take reply on my own point of view. I've made an exception here for you simply because you are trolling all over this thread, seemingly inviting downvotes. But, I'm going to block you and move on because you've killed any interest I have in this thread or the larger discussion. I still don't think your comments rise to the level of reporting.

Reports and blocks aren't a replacement for downvotes and if your instances doesn't federate downvotes you shouldn't use them that way.

Yes. I'm assuming your just some dude and not a telecom with teams of lawyers.

Now. That's pretty much the situation now. If you don't believe me, try and completely remove Edge and Copilot from an updated Windows 11.

Obviously, it was a skill learned in early grade school and subsequently forgotten through lack of practice. You know, as stated in the article and multiple comments here.

Being able to fold down a larger "sheet" display so that it fit in a pocket would be pretty cool. Having extra room for reading things like maps and comic books is so much better than pinching and zooming on a pocket sized display. What you call limited purpose, I call functional design. I'm kind of over all-in-one devices. They've turned into Jack of all trades, but master of none.

Obviously that's not what this device is, but it got me thinking about why I'd want a device with multiple e-ink displays or a foldable display.

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."

You're looking for proofs that Pi is constant.

Here are some explanations (without in depth review on my part):

No. Soulseek is old school P2P. All you need to do is run the client software, set a local shared folder, and your are client and server in one. Funkwhale is more like running your own Lemmy instance and building a community. The difference between them is like the difference between using Airdrop or Syncthing to share files and hosting hosting your own domain and server.

It is a basic ingredient in mirepoix, which is used as a base for a variety of sauces, soups, gravies, and stews. It's just one component of what is basically just a fresh vegetable mix. You can always just substitute whatever you have on hand or local that fits, just like you would with a stir-fry or fried rice. It's less about the specific vegetables than it is about the way they are prepared and what they contribute. Onions and carrots add sweetness. Celery balances those with its saltiness. Celery and garlic feel to me like a bridge to the other proper herbs like parsley and thyme that usually go in the mirepoix I combine with a good roux to make gravy.

Those reduced civil rights related to border patrol extend about 200 miles in from every U.S. border.

This needs to be copypasta'd as a reply to every comment suggesting that opening up jellyfin to the internet is easy and everyone should do it to get away from Plex.
