That’s wrong. The tube has a cross section of 0.25π cm² so your tube will be filled ~1,2732m high.

Also as others have stated, if you can measure 1cm you already have a definition of a Meter.

Yeah with lossy compression the future is today!

Easy, just replace each byte of data with multiple bytes of metadata. I see no problem here

I am not sure drawing a comparison between your unemployment and the reign of the Nazis is the best move

But you dont what the code of the assembly-style centered div in your codebase. Because nobody will be able to read it and understand what it even does. There are abstraction specific ways to solve problems and the right way to do something in assembly is not the right way to do it in CSS.

The “biological reason” is “societal preconditioning”. Its Disney movies, toys marketed towards small girls, television, social media…

Despite many advancements in equality, marrying a rich man is still seen (and marketed) as a live goal for women.

Also, wedding and princess are pretty mutch the same thing for a girl. Pretty dress, center of attention, presents, etc. Its not about “getting married”.

And Guam. And American Samoa. And US virgin islands. And mariana Islands.

Its also probably fairly easy to become an aristocrat if you are immortal. You start as a mercenary to earn money, then you win a decisive battle for your lord and he gives you a noble title and lands.

Addresses change all the time. Especially big websites will have many addresses for the same name and depending who (or from where) someone is asking for the name, they will tell them a different address. That way someone from Europe will connect to a server in europe and someone in the US to an american server. And cloud providers will have hundreds of addresses that they reuse and rotate for many customers.

Also to reduce the number of name request, the DNS system will cache answeres (save the answer and use it again later). If I ask for the address of Lemmy.org, they then change their address and I ask my DNS server again, I will get the old outdated address again.

There is also the question of who is actually in charge of answering DNS requests to a specific name.

All in all there are a lot of moving parts and for some reason people seem to be bad at managing their DNS records so when something breaks, very often it is because of DNS. (But also because DNS is very fundament so any problem with DNS will have a big effect so it is more noticeable)

Everything should be encrypted, always. We live in a time where hardware for en/decrypting is so fast and cheap that they can be included in any device. If you send somethig through a it should be encrypted. If you send something over the air, it has even more reason to be encrypted. I see no scenario where it should not be.

HOWEVER! For law enforcement and other official governmental agencies I think all communication should have to be recorded. And failure to do so should have very high penalties. Transparency should happen after, not during the communication.

Off topic, but how do you do that on Lemmy? In jerboa there is no option (that I know off) to browse another instance. Do you open your home instance in one browser tab and the one you want to explore in another and once you find a community you like you switch to the other tab and subscribe to it there?

If your messager can’t be used on a computer I feel sorry for you. Signal, Whatsapp, Telegram all have windows or browser clients

Counterpoint: OP. They are surrounded by Russia supporters but dont support Russia.

Or just make some laws about impartiality, and use fines and loss of licence as punishment. Lastly, allow renters to choose the inspector.

Unfortunately in many places houses are rare and landlords can choose from a wide range of interested renters. They can always choose the renter that is willing to pay for the inspection completely and choose the inspection company favoured by the landlord.

Splitting costs between a party paying money and a party receiving money (in exchanage for goods or services) never works. If the landlord wants to rent for X but have to pay Y, they will simply rent for X+Y so they end up with X the way they wanted.

No you can’t work with that. Its, like, direkty examined in the sign!

Yeah. For me the video stops when I lock the screen (or change apps) but I can then press play again on the lock screen (or in the drop down notifications when changed to another app).

If you want to calculate the cipher on paper everything that works on binary will be a huge overhead and basically require you to write stuff down for the calculations. So you need to burn sheets of paper for every en/decryption. So no XOR or anything.

I would go for a stream-caesar-cipher. Find a mathematical formula that you can calculate in your head and that gives you a numbers between 1-35 (or something similar depending on how many different characters you need). The formula must be pseudo random so f(x)=5, f(x+1)=1, f(x+2)=28, … and not loop for a looooong time. Calculate a new value FOR EVERY LETTER OF YOUR TEXT!!! and use that as your Caesar cipher for that letter only (x is the position of the character in the text)

You need to keep track which letter in your cipher text was encoded with which x (write the x of the first letter of each page down) and keep the formula a secret. Never ever under any circumstance reuse an x. So you need to keep x going for every page/message and can’t restart at 1 each time.

If x becomes to large and the calculations to complicated, its better to change the formula than to restart x. Never ever ever ever reuse the same cipher because then you get all the drawbacks of Caesar ciphers (probability of letters, length of words (position of the space character) etc).

The system where someone monopolizes a essential good and leverages that to gain power is called anarcho-capitalism and is a whole different thing. In anarchy, ownership on that level does not exist. Neither a company nor a person can own a factory, or a farm, or the power grid. Employment doesn’t exist. People can band together and distribute tasks for a common goal (such as producing a certain good) but they all hold equal stake in all decisions.

Of course a group of people could use violence to oppress other people. But then you no longer have anarchy. The same way a democracy stops beeing a democracy once a group seizes power and doesn’t allow fair elections anymore.

Might be a minimum of 16 chars. Or the parsing is broken and treats the ’ as the end of the password
