I'm typing this on a 6S Plus, and so far it seems like this'll do until iOS 15 patching stops.


I think I'm throwing in the towel on my 7 Plus this year. I'd love to keep it around for a bit longer but too many apps and websites are no longer functional. It's starting to become a usability issue.


Instead of ignoring everything, I've found it better to apply this setting instead:

  git config status.showuntrackedfiles no


This is neat and probably even better than the ignore. Thanks for this!


Intake and exhaust manifold shapes affect the power and torque characteristics of the engine. Also, these are not cheap parts. Also a quick glance at the parts catalogue suggests that the example engine, BMW B48, has different pistons and connecting rods for different tune levels, suggesting that the cast engine block is one of the few components which are actually interchangeable between the versions. Didn't check, but I'd guess the turbocharger compressor and turbine wheels might be different, too.


THIS.

The idea that those engines don't differ is an urban myth that exists at least since the mid 1990s and the first TDIs.

Of course they differ in more than one way and using the higher configuration can easily destroy them.


For a moment I was really confused about this purported achievement of late Mary Stuart before my brain made the right connection.


As a Northern European (Finland) I can tell you that the electricity cost here for last year was closer to 0,1 € per kWh including the transfer fee and taxes. Additionally, more than 40 % of houses here have electric heating. The heating season starts in early autumn and ends in late spring, lasting 8 to 9 months depending on the year. As the electricity used by the device is turned into heat, during the heating season running it costs nothing.


Yeah, northern scandinavia has plenty of renewable energy.

As for electric heating, that is true in 1:1 heating scenarios, but i assume you guys are also using heat pumps these days, and while you still get heat "for free", it will not be anywhere as efficient as your heat pump.

Yes, it's probably peanuts in the grand scheme of things, i know our air to water heat pump in Denmark uses around 4500-5500 kWh per year, so adding another 100 kWh probably won't mean much.


I would most likely end up with something like this:

  CAT          CATalogue - output the contents of current directory
  RM           to Raster Memory - load contents of named file in framebuffer
  MV           Make Virtual - map the file into memory and output the address
  LS           Load System - attempt to reboot using the named file as the kernel
  CD           Create Directory - self-explanatory
  SH           System Halt - immediately stop all processing
...and so on.


I suggest:

    RM           Relocate me - you could also use the "-rf" flag to relative fuzzy matching, for instance `rm -rf tmp` to find any temp-like folder near your current location. Pretty standard stuff.
    CD           Clear data - `cd -L /temp` would "liquidate" the directory.
This would be a much simpler command interface.


To create a file, we should take inspiration from TOPS-10 and call the command `make` [0]. When issuing `make love`, it should ask for confirmation to the user: `not war?`.

Very good design. Implements only the essential tasks an operator would need with concise and well-known mnemonics. I’m sure this will be immediately intuitive to anyone, with no potential for mistakes whatsoever.


CAT was on the Amstrad CPC.


Love it.


Trains don't even notice that. Russian wagons with nominal gauge of 1520 mm are an everyday sight on the Finnish rail network, nominal gauge 1524 mm. And yes, regardless of sanctions.

Yes. The current state of things makes much more sense when one is aware of the background.


> I have to say, .home.arpa doesn't exactly roll of the tongue like .internal.

In my native language (Finnish) it's even worse, or better, depending on personal preference - it translates directly to .mildew.lottery-ticket.


It would be more like .mold.ticket


Thanks, I always mix up mold and mildew. However, "arpa" is specifically a lottery ticket, whereas there are tickets for concerts, tickets to ride, tickets in Jira etc...


Arpa is used for all kinds of random chance things, not specifically for lottery. I feel like ticket would still be the equivalent but I guess that would be more transliteration and opinion than direct translation? Also my view for lottery may be skewed due to the Finnish lottery culture, and how lottery has more meanings in English. Sorry turned ranty.


Arguably, Jira ‘has issues’.


You might consider using this handy thing, also available as a binwalk module, for recognizing the ISA.
