The age of majority is a pretty arbitrary line that we draw; I don’t see how this would be fundamentally different. We already “encroach” on interpersonal relationships by not allowing adults to date minors (which again is defined completely arbitrarily).
Unrelated, but what on earth is going on with the thorns in your comments?
AFAIK none of those formats include any mechanism for error correction. You’d likely need to use a separate program like zfec to generate the extra parity data. Bzip2 and Zstandard are somewhat resistant to errors since they encode in blocks, but in the event of bit rot the entire affected block may still be unrecoverable.
Alternatively, if you’re especially concerned with robustness then it may be more advisable to simply maintain multiple copies across different drives or even to create an off-site backup. Parity bits are helpful but they won’t do you much good if your hard drive crashes or your house catches fire.
Interpreting a PR which changes “he” to “they” as pushing political ideology is not an apolitical stance. I don’t know a ton about him and I’m not convinced this makes him a “fascist” by association, but the fact that he seems to be ideologically aligned with the ones in power on America is troubling at the very least.
As other commenters have said this is basically only a thing at Walmart. Sometimes in very small shops someone will say hello as you enter, but that’s a much more informal thing and as I said only really happens with tiny mom-and-pop stores where there might only be one or two people working.
systemd bad
Putin is a despot trying to make his mark on history. No amount of appeasement from the global West would have stopped him from ordering the invasion.
This is the most important thing I’ve learned since the start of my career. All those “clever” tricks literally just serve to make the author feel clever at the expense of clarity and long-term manintainability.
This is, like, textbook dystopian. Most people value their privacy at least to some extent and probably wouldn’t take kindly to being documented in a public central database largely outside of their control.
That’s not really how it works. It’ll load quicker than on the 64 GB eMMC model, but that’s due to different technologies and nothing to do with storage space.

Can’t you say the same about virtually any form of entertainment? The electricity that runs the server you used to post this doesn’t come from nowhere.
Microsoft also released their own package manager called Winget a few years ago. It mostly just wraps existing installers to allow for unattended installation, but it seems to work pretty well in my (limited) experience.
It seems like one of the most conspicuous contributors to recent Linux fixes works for a consulting firm presumably contracted by Valve, so it definitely seems like a coordinated effort in preparation for… something.
That’s a pretty confusing changelog item considering async reproduction has been straight-up broken since SteamVR 2.0. That being said, I’m thrilled that Valve seems to finally be fixing some of the long-standing issues on Linux. They also recently fixed an annoying issue with the right eye mask being uninitialized, and 2.5 along with seemingly this release has fixed issues with SteamVR Home.
I mean, if that’s the case then yeah, but I have a hard time believing they only use their box truck on private land.
Apparently the version of Plasma that Fedora ships has the explicit sync patches backported from 6.1.
This isn’t true at all. The general legal consensus is that foreign nationals are entitled to virtually the same rights as US citizens while on US soil.
I’d suggest reading up on John Locke’s “continuity of consciousness” theory of self. It’s essentially what you’re describing here: he holds that the “self” over time is a construct of the continuity of one’s consciousness through memory. This has some interesting implications: for instance, if someone becomes blackout drunk and has no recollection of the experience, can it be said that that experience belongs to the same person after the fact? Also, as another commenter pointed out this has significant implications in the case of memory loss, especially for someone suffering from dementia.
