Seems like a stylistic choice to me. Leaving out the "have been" makes it sound more poetic, but I don't think it's wrong per se

It's tiny in comparison to cosmetic transactions nowadays. Still ridiculous, then as now

Without a lie they'd just be horsefs

Been waiting for them to show up.

Forgejo is a free/open source code hosting site like GitHub or Gitlab. It's a fork of Gitea, over concerns with management and commercialization. You might know it from Codeberg, which is one of the largest managed instances, but it's really easy to host your own.

How do you get from a couple dozen qubits to brain enhancing cybernetics? Quantum computing is fairly well understood at this point, it just doesn't scale well yet

Especially Russian cows, I heard it's especially bad with them

I'm still rocking my S8 active, and I'll keep doing it until the battery dies or catches fire. Nothing they've added to phones in the last 7 years is worth it, imo

Only problem is that the storage is almost full from apps leaking data into locations not accessible from userland, so I'll have to root it at some point. But I'm confident it got another 2-3 years in it

It does, and it's cheaper and faster to implement. Solar and wind are dirt cheap. Storage has long been the bottleneck, but we've made gargantuan progress in scalable battery technology (sodium batteries, for example).

A green grid would also help distribute energy production closer to where people live, and reduce single points of failure. It goes to increase grid resilience and reduce dependence on a few large energy corporations.

Nuclear was a useful technology, and likely safer than coal. But anyone pushing for nuclear (over 100% renewables) nowadays is helping uphold the status quo of centralized energy production in the hands of a a few rich capitalists.

Fair, didn't think of that. If x or y in "either x or y" is plural, the whole phrase is plural. Either the Red Sox or the Yankees are going to win, either their team or ours is going to win.

Thanks for pointing it out!
