How can they still operate with 1B in debt? There’s no way they are ever going to be able to repay that in a reasonable time frame
The one on Greenland, for example
Maybe because that is more dangerous than any other use?
More like the author is so insecure herself that she feels forced to use these terms in the belief that they somehow strengthen her position.
Unfortunately, there are plenty enough humans to come up with stupid shit like this.
Drivers are included in the kernel, you will always have them.
More often than not, it is the companies themselves that commit drivers for their hardware to the Linux kernel
As your own quote says, we can at least hope that if it passes, it will be found illegal by the courts and get rescinded.
Interesting, but there’s not much meat to this story yet. We’ll see how it’ll be
That’s not what proprietary means. The dualism is proprietary/free (as in freedom), not proprietary/public.
How stupid must you be that merging layers takes you hours? It is a single button press. Exporting PNGs is a matter of under 10 seconds. It is clearly labelled in the dropdown menu.
Absolute you problem. GIMP is some of the best and most powerful FOSS ever made, and better than most proprietary applications. But this is probably just bait anyway.
Nah it was actually funny. Americans are hyper-sensitive when it comes to 9/11 but not the hundreds of thousands or millions of deaths your government has caused in the subsequent “war on terror”.
Yes, I understand that part, but it doesn’t disprove that such an experiment could show isotropy. Instead, it says that it would always indicate isotropy, which is not entirely useful either, of course. I’ll dig deeper into the publication behind that section when I have the time. Nonetheless, my original point still stands. With a highly synchronised clock, you could measure the (an)isotropy of the one-way speed of light. To determine whether the time dilation issue is surmountable I’ll have to look at the actual research behind it.
That the measurements from the slow clock transport synchronisation method are equivalent to the Einstein synchronisation and its isotropic speed of light can be interpreted to show that the one-way speed of light is indeed isotropic for a given set-up and not anisotropic. The problem with this is that anisotropy could not even be measured if it were to exist in this context. But this is definitely not a clear-cut zero sum game, there’s no evidence suggesting anisotropy while there are observations that would at least suggest isotropy, but neither possibility can be ruled out. However, my initial point was that, could you have ultra-synchronised clocks, you could potentially be able to draw a reliable conclusion. But I’ll dig into the publication the Wiki entry cites for the time dilation part in the slow clock section when I have the time.
Can you cite some literature to back up that claim? Stating that something like acceptable clock synchronisation (a well established and appreciated method in the measurements of physical effects) is impossible in and of itself is something so bold that no one can just take your word for it.
If you move one clock very slowly away from the other, the error is minimised, perhaps even to a degree that allows for statistically significant measurements.
To cite the Wikipedia entry that one of the other commenters linked:
“The clocks can remain synchronized to an arbitrary accuracy by moving them sufficiently slowly. If it is taken that, if moved slowly, the clocks remain synchronized at all times, even when separated, this method can be used to synchronize two spatially separated clocks.”
Synchronise two high-precision clocks at different locations. Transmit the signal from A to a receiver at B and then send a signal back (or reflect the initial signal) from B to A. Both locations will record the synchronised time that their sensors picked up the transmission. Then, compare their clocks.
Okay? Oddly specific
