Rohloff sounds like "roll off", as in "roll off the side of the mountain"

WHAT DID YOU SAY?

The writeup is here, for anyone interested. I wholeheartedly recommend it, it's a fascinating story.

I sincerely doubt that the maintenance bill for 100 houses is going to exceed a billion dollars any time in for foreseeable future.

Won't be a couple of years if you're constantly swapping, no.

I get this sporadically, probably once a week on average. Most of the time it seems to be caused by a specific tab and resolves itself after closing the tab (in my case Slack is the most common culprit).

Is there any definition of teen which doesn't start at 13?

Those people could just as easily buy slip-ons, which serve the same purpose while not requiring an app (or any other form of electronics, for that matter).

Ah, that makes a lot more sense.

What would be an example of #8? Are there names which gradually morph from one name into another over time? In what way could a name change such that the change doesn't occur at a specific point in time?

I've always wanted to have to clean hardened calc/lime out of my CPU cooler!

Based on anecdotal evidence, "I refuse" may be more common than you think. I live in Switzerland, and out of all the expats I know who have been here a long time (20+ years), a large percentage (over half) of them still can't speak German. At all. Like, they can maybe say "thank you" but that's about the extent of their vocabulary, and many of them actually seem to be quite proud of the fact that they've made absolutely zero attempt to integrate into the local community or culture.

Now, although I'm fully aware that there are a hell of a lot of differences between Switzerland and the US, it still wouldn't be at all surprising to me if there were large groups of immigrants in the US who similarly resist learning English.

I can assure you that before I set up Cloudflare, I was getting hit by SYN floods filling up the entire bandwidth of my home DSL2 connection multiple times a week.

I find it hard to believe that the environmental impact of having a paper tag per shelf which gets replaced maybe once a week is worse than the impact of manufacturing, installing and powering one digital screen per shelf.

But... these people are dead.

Are you suggesting that OP should burn their ex's house down? With the lemons? That OP should have their engineers invent a combustible lemon that burns their ex's house down?

Similar idea, but it does some funky translation layer magic to get pretty much native performance. The original project is called mcpelauncher-linux, iirc it's been abandoned and forked at least once since then but I haven't kept up with it.
