I’m assuming this is referring to JSO.

Beginning on 1 April, they carried out England-wide blockades of ten critical oil facilities, intending to cut off the supply of petrol to South East England.[33][34][35]
On 26 August, the group blocked seven petrol stations in Central London and vandalised fuel pumps. Forty-three people around London were arrested on suspicion of criminal damage.
On 20 June, the protestors spray painted private jets at a private airfield at Stansted Airport. The group had been targeting a jet belonging to singer Taylor Swift, but could not locate it.[140]
Yes, a lot of their protests are “awareness” stuff (basically none of which do actual damage. Unlike oil, actually!). No, it’s not just that. The UK isn’t an active warzone so bombing stuff is slightly more difficult to justify.
Ahh, that makes sense. Powers of two are real convenient. Your math is a little wrong though: X != (X & 0xFF) + (X >> 8), but X = (X & 0xFF) + (X >> 8) << 8
The right half can be removed entirely if you’re doing modulo 16, since the first 4 bits will always be 0. So it simply becomes X & 15
! Much cleaner for sure.
Would you happen to remember what the optimization was, mathematically?
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20036698/subdivide-a-modulo-function-16-bit-but-can-only-do-8-bits-at-a-time#20036828 seems to say that it’s “impossible afaik”, and I can’t seem to optimize it myself (though this kind of math isn’t my forte)
I’m not an OS dev, I have no idea how stuff this low-level works.
I’d suggest some kind of “press this key to view debug information” text (or make it documented but not visible, to avoid people just pressing whatever button is written on the screen)
Out of curiosity, I looked up the numbers. This is correct, they make 9.2 billion per quarter from ads and 10.7 billion from subscriptions. I can’t find expenses per-segment, but in 2023 their total “Cost of revenues” was 37 billion. I doubt everything other than youtube costs less than 17 billion, so they’re definitely making a profit.

Just to offer some support, you’re right and those are good questions
Fair. Powertoys is really extensive. I quite like Pop (or gnome’s? Not sure) tiling window manager though.
PopOS’s COSMIC menu is like that I think (you can search files, the web, even stuff like turning volume up and down)? But I’ve never tried to run it outside of PopOS.
Also, the reason this is a CVE is because Rust itself guarantees that calling commands doesn’t evaluate shell stuff (but this breaks that guarantee). As far as I know C/C++ makes no such guarantee whatsoever.
In general: non-intrusive, non-tracking ads, with robust verification (i.e. not scams or lies), such as the ones you find on https://modrinth.com, or duckduckgo
With adnauseam: https://github.com/dhowe/AdNauseam/wiki/FAQ#what-is-the-effs-do-not-track-standard-and-how-it-is-supported-in-adnauseam
The best part is that more ethical ads are harder to block, because trackers are one of the easiest ways to identify ads.
Hell, the adblocker I use (adnauseam) doesn’t block ethical ads by default.

AI. Black guy in the background on the right has a white hand.
On the left the arms and legs are in very awkward positions too (the second guy has like… two left legs?)
For the screenshot you might want to use a terminal that doesn’t have bloom, a CRT filter, and a background, I genuinely can’t see the TUI.
Pick is certainly very nice!
Ohai! Didn’t expect to actually be first lol, Leo Uino beat me for most of december. I guess they stopped doing them when they came out later in december (totally understandable)
Lol I didn’t get the reference before
(There was a post about Switzerland considering legalizing cocaine cus they have so much and it’s so pure & common, apparently)
Wow, I didn’t know that! That’s absolutely wild
