  • The whole south would be about the biggest possible fuck you to Jesus.

    And if he ever came back i doubt he'd live to see trial much less his legal execution.

    Bet the televangelists who demanded his death would be so upset they'd need to buy new private jets to get over it

  • Biden helped end the dockers strike by saying reopening the ports to help Hurricane Helene victims would be patriotic

  • It's the only thing he cared about.

    And it pulled the last frail harness off the billionaire class.

    Absolutely nothing got in the way of his capital gains tax cut.

  • when half the south gets wiped out destroyed by Hurricane Maria

    If that happened I'd rename my daughter Maria.

  • Herodatus wrote narratives more than he wrote histories.

    The definitive 'beginning of history' is "The History of the Peloponesian War" by Thucydides, highly recommend, well written and accessible even now and spells out the politics very clearly and explicitly.

  • They know customers will pay, but mostly they can lock in long term contracts on favorable terms.

    Hock is scarily good at his job, depending on how you define his job.

    What happens if you take nasal spray corticosteroids orally, do they become more systemic in effect or rather destroyed by first-pass metabolism?

    Jump

  • First pass metabolism, or just absorbed by mucous membranes of the mouth, blood flow isn't great so absorption is less systemic, just mess up your mouth and throat a bit really, but might help some symptoms locally.

    The nasal dose is low compared to oral and those dissolve in areas with high blood uptake.

  • Trump is now threatening to deport legal immigrants

    Jump

  • Always has been.

  • This isn't the actual point, it's about canceling citizenship for 2nd generation kids, because they might not vote for the same rednecks they believe should be running the country.

    Ironically, if they were even marginally human and unracist, those conservative catholic Mexicans would vote GOP in droves, it's just the brutal, inhuman explicit racism that pushed them blue.

  • PyQt devs missed a golden opportunity

    Jump

  • Thank God they didn't, it's my default toolkit for gui hacks, I don't want to have to make quick gui apps where everything is named uwu.

  • Melania Trump passionately defends abortion rights in upcoming memoir

    Jump

  • You know what else was democratic?

    Jim Crow.

    I don't want to repeal the 13th-15th amendments, and Mississippi still rejects the 24th amendment.

    We should give democratic power to the states, but only to functional ones, you wouldn't want to live in Somalia or Afghanistan and call that democracy, in the same vein we shouldn't accept what passes for democracy in the south, it's only one step up from apartheid.

  • Gluetun container "needs" to leak DNS?

    Jump

  • Yeah I was thinking DNS over https was sneaking in, it's a tricky little bastard and you have to kill Firefox to change that properly.

    How are pseudo/true random numbers generated mathetmatically, what sorcery is this?

    Jump

  • Mathematically? True random numbers cannot be.

    Electronically?

    Either listening to environmental noise (human input, but mostly these things called ring oscillators that are basically chains of not gates and the initial state combined with noise, temperature and process variation).

    The real magic is taking some noise source and hiding most of it (think modulo operation or similar) so people see large variations without being able to sample enough of it to find patterns, ie if the source is thermal variance, it might have a sine wave effect but you take the lowest significant bits only, and hide the biggest bits so they can't easily model the pattern.

    There's more, lot of finite field math and transforms, whitening functions, etc.
