I would recommend a VM to try a few things. HyperV, while not the greatest, is good to start off and comes with Windows Pro. Set up a Debian or Ubuntu and a Windows VM and take away its internet. That should get you most of the way.

Rebel Moon. Oh yeah, they're so bad. And apparently a third one is on the way, and the extended cuts for all of them.

flared base 👍 carry on

Anything that exists is ridiculously expensive. 20k+ for the cheapest option. Last I checked at least.

Literally what I'm waiting for. I live alone, I have a 5km commute with crappy public transport. Too far to walk, bike in winter sucks, so some closed space for one or two people that can transport a bit of groceries is the largest I want. Smart sized, but affordable please.

That's not more time, it's the same time distributed differently. Does the author also believe daylight savings time adds an hour to the day? Hopefully not.

First thing he'll do is write Torvalds and suggest a minor change to the naming.

They're not!?

Heh, pardon.

Let's compromise!

Alloy.

Or what we can agree on: HO. Omg Santa was right all along.

Does the island protection with if you have two inverters running independently? (legally or not)

Also, emergency service hazard. The PV won't turn off if firefighters take out the mains, which makes a house potentially inaccessible during an emergency.

And understandably you wouldn't switch plans if all you're talking to is sales without context.

It's become self-aware and is parodying itself!

My point is the difference between number system and language. We're seamlessly converting back and forth while writing this, but there's a specific amount in our heads that we're trying to communicate, either by word or by number. The number is ambiguous only if you don't know the base, while the word is ambiguous only if you don't know the language. The meme is - presumably - in English, and they're talking (in speech bubble form), so the misunderstanding doesn't really happen. it's only when a secondary 'language' is introduced - the numbers - that it is possible.

Ten in particular, which we usually write as a two digit number because of historical and biological context, still uniquely describes a certain amount without any relation to it being written as the first two digit number. In any language, you wouldn't translate to one two three ten just because they usually write in base four, you'd translate to whatever their word for the number is that you're trying to translate.

more precisely, every base has 10, but it's usually not equal to ten. ten is a fixed value, while 10 depends on the base. you still count normally (one two three four five), even in a base two system. you just write it differently.

No, ten is a fixed amount in English. It has roots in base ten, but we also have eleven and twelve from other bases. (also dozen, gross, score.) In English there is no ambiguity when it comes to what number the word ten represents.
