  • Neither the Republic nor the Empire had the habit of “taking” a planet. The Republic was a federation of almost independent planets, and the Empire used the same structure with just a random intervention here or there if one tried to actually act independently. And the Empire interventions were much more on the lines of “destroying” than “taking”.


  • There’s a reason they do that: Files can get big

    Oh, boy. Wouldn’t it be great if servers had a way to discover the size of the files on their storage without having to read them?

    adding various code highlighting and interactivity costs performance

    Somebody, quick, there’s work to be done on language theory so that we learn how to do those things with a cost just proportional to the file size!

    (No way! Who is that Chomsky guy you keep telling me about?)

    The funny thing is that you’ll have a hard time defending that the North Europe ones are governed by the property owning class… So this one is actually false. But it does apply to all countries that call themselves communist.

    Anyway, it’s a very rare oddity for a country to have such a strong middle class that rich people can not reign free. Good for those few ones that managed it.

    (And yeah, talk about non-sequitur on the 4rt one. It’s ridiculous. Yeah, the best way to fight climate change is by supporting a revolution lead by the OP’s favorite fascists. No explanation needed.)





  • Yep.

    But there also exists Endpoint Detection and Prevention System, Intrusion Prevention System, Enterprise Security system, Network Threat Detection, Network Threat Prevention… And all those things name the exact same products (or at least, products you buy bundled on the same package).

    Somehow I managed to use the one acronym that is wrong.
