Or dromedar.

One notable exception: temperature ranges for electronics. The electronics may be shit, but they will still work when the soldier is an ice popsicle or a roasted piece of meat.

So the library leadership cut an exception for themselves, probably.

AKA another dementia test he mistakes for a complicated IQ test.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
I “inherited” my sons netbook, which had 32GB flash, because Windows plus Office wasted 27GB and then wanted to download an 8GB update. I installed Kubuntu with LibreOffice and a number of other packages I needed for the project, and was way below 5GB used.
- Comment on What is the deal with IPv6? 1 week ago:
There are a number of points:
If you build a networking devices, you have to have IPV4. You may or better should have IPV6, too, but without IPV4, you’ll have a bad start.
If you build an embedded system, like an “internet of things” sensor or actor, memory is at premium, so having to take care of a small and a large IP stack might be challenging.
Some systems are old that their software libraries don’t even offer an IPV6 option.
My current project uses IPV4 only, because I don’t need anything fancy. I just span a 10/8 network with 10.0.0.1 being the server. No routing, not even DNS. Using IPV6 for that application would be wasted.
- Comment on What's your opinions on film critics and film snobs?? 1 week ago:
We have weekly appearences of such people both in the radio and TV morning shows.
You can safely assume: if they speak enthusiastically about a movie and give it four or even five stars, you can watch this film in Sunday morning matinees in some basement movie theatres with maybe thirty seats. But it has “interesting, colourful characters” and “beautiful scenary” or whatever.
Any movie that actually makes its production costs back will be “boring” and “overly commercial”, and rate one or two stars.

Found it. I wonder what the designer did to make sure to have exactly one cow in there.
- Comment on What is a game you can’t understand why its so popular ? 1 week ago:
Monopoly. If it wasn’t a classic, and someone was looking for a publisher with that concept, they’d be completely trashed.

Just another reason to boycott such software.

- Comment on Should hate speech be protected under freedom of speech laws? 2 weeks ago:
It is amazing that for you, being able to spread hate seems to be a fundamental, inviolable human right.
- Comment on Should hate speech be protected under freedom of speech laws? 2 weeks ago:
So hate speech is non-violent rhetoric to you?
And it is more about “just don’t offend” than about the individual levels of feeling offended.
- Comment on Cant order new shiny things 2 weeks ago:
Try to order something from an American web shop as a foreigner…
Bonus points for ordering something that is embargoed. You have to fill out US customs forms threatening fire from hell if you enter wrong data, while at the same time not allowing to enter correct data.

If you think it is ok to spread hate, you’ll have to live with the consequences. I don’t think the world needs more hate.
And, btw, hate is what brought the GOP to power. Think about it.

I put Tim in the same category as Kenny. As in the beer: Killkenny.
- Comment on Should hate speech be protected under freedom of speech laws? 2 weeks ago:
When someone would scream into your face “Animals like you should be shot!”, wouldn’t it hurt you?
If someone spread lies about you or your family or your business if you had one, wouldn’t it do damage?
If someone spread the word that people of color or other minorities would do this or that (wasn’t it “Haitians eating dogs” or something recently?) and it led to people attacking this minority, wouldn’t it be dangerous?
Remember January 6th, where Trump whipped up the stupid to storm the Capitol? He did not use a cattle prod or stick, he only used words, and see what has happened.
And look closely at what the GOP is doing. They are spreading lies, and repeat them, until they fester and replace the truth in the hearts of the listeners.
And now tell me again that words can do no harm.

The question is what is less harm? Increased taxes or lack of education?
