Yeah, I manage the infrastructure for almost 150 WordPress sites, and I moved them all to ARM servers a while ago, because they’re 10% or 20% cheaper on AWS.
Websites are rarely bottlenecked by the CPU, so that power efficiency is very significant.
Don’t tell other people to do things that you clearly haven’t done yourself.
Now do the George Floyd riots.
You mean the ones where cops and white supremacists pretended to be protesters and started smashing windows and setting fires themselves, because the real protestors weren’t doing anything that they could be arrested for?

So when you try to murder people you unarmed into a building filled with armed men?
People who illegally entered Capitol grounds during the insurrection were armed with a wide variety of weapons, including guns, stun guns, knives, batons, baseball bats, axes and chemical sprays. The Department of Justice said in an official update last week that so far “over 75” people charged in connection to the attack “have been charged with entering a restricted area with a dangerous or deadly weapon.”

They also made pipe bombs.

Lmao no it isn’t. It’s completely insignificant and barely even qualifies as news.
The US Dollar is strong because we have the largest economy in the world, not because of the good will of some oil exporter.
At least google things before spreading insane misinformation.
Did you miss the part where they were trying to murder most of congress?
Also:
Within 36 hours, five people died: one was shot by Capitol Police, another died of a drug overdose, and three died of natural causes, including a police officer. Many people were injured, including 174 police officers. Four officers who responded to the attack died by suicide within seven months. Damages caused by attackers exceeded $2.7 million.

What happened was an attempted coup, where a mob of people was only two barricaded doors away from murdering most of congress.
Google is buying your data, not selling it. They use it to make their ad platform more effective, and selling the data would just help their competitors.
The NSA does collect data from third parties like Google, but not just anyone can buy it from them.

Our findings suggest that free-ranging cats cause substantially greater wildlife mortality than previously thought and are likely the single greatest source of anthropogenic mortality for US birds and mammals.
I haven’t said anything on the subject before, because I don’t care very much, but I don’t know what the alternative is supposed to be. It’s not like someone who is that famous can walk into a public airplane without putting her own safety at risk and causing trouble for other passengers.
It’s also well known that conservatives really hate her because she told her fans to vote and these memes are part of their effort to discredit her. Whether the point has any merit or not, it’s obvious who started the trend and who it’s helping.
Why the fuck aren’t more people pressuring him with questions like this?
Because they’ll never get another interview with him, or most other Republican politicians. It’s a pathetic reason, but that’s all it takes.
old webpages (like from the 2000s) are fast and snappy. new webpages take much longer to load.
This part is true, especially on phones, but those old webpages were not fast at all when they were first published.
I remember trying to watch videos on dialup Internet. I’d make it start buffering and then go do something else for half an hour before coming back to watch the video. I also remember avoiding certain websites even on DSL because they had 1 or 2 whole megabytes of JavaScript and it took forever to load.
Increases in bandwidth and processing power has made those old websites seem a lot more performant than they were at the time.
Today we can put a lot more stuff on our websites than we used to, which makes things slower, but we’re also much more aware of major performance issues. Google uses it as a factor in their ranking algorithm, and offers a pretty intelligent tool to help developers figure out where to optimize their websites, so it’s essential for most companies to optimize for that. Giant companies like Amazon and Facebook can ignore it because they’ll always be on top, but the rest of us are getting really excited about new frameworks like solid and qwik that will make it a lot easier to optimize our sites.
When a leap second happens, unix time decreases by one second. See the section about leap seconds here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time
As a side effect, this means some unix timestamps are ambiguous, because the timestamps at the beginning and the end of a leap second are the same.
I don’t think so, but you can always write the file somewhere else and then sudo mv it back.
:w !sudo tee %
Of course that’s impossible to remember, but you can just google “vim sudo save” or something like that to find it.

Blargerer is probably saying that because the Mastodon post OP linked to says “In 2016 the EU Commission confirmed in writing that adblock detection requires consent.”
That, in turn, is probably referring to a letter received from the European Commission by the same person, which you can see here: https://twitter.com/alexanderhanff/status/722861362607747072
It’s not exactly a “ruling”, but it’s still pretty convincing.
Close encounters of the racist kind is a good read. Here’s the most relevant part:
Consider the H2 series “In Search of Aliens,” which, before its demise, promoted the work of Jan Udo Holey, a German writer whose antisemitic books have been banned across Europe. (Holey’s pen name, Jan Van Helsig, is a blunt Dracula reference, i.e. Jews are bloodsuckers.) The History Channel’s long-running series “Ancient Aliens,” meanwhile, features David Childress, whose books cite and build on the work of James Churchward, who promoted an ancient empire called the “lost continent of Mu,” whose “dominant race” was an “exceedingly handsome people, with clear white or olive skin.”
The history channel is entry level nazi propaganda.
