lohfu··on Why no Roman industrial revolution?
I think a more intriguing question is ”Why no Chinese industrial revolution?” Their economy was nowhere near as slavery or serfdom based, and was impressively technologically advanced
lohfu··on Debian's Chromium changes default search engine to DDG
i would argue most people that install chromium, not chrome, no what a search engine is. unfortunately, since chromium lost google account login capabilities, i do not install chromium anymore. now i just think "search engine" means "google".

how can you be sure? feigning verity isnt helping anything; at best you will not get downvoted.

lohfu··on Why is subtracting these two times in 1927 giving a strange result? (2011)
in most countries the dates 6th - 14th october 1582 existed since far from all countries switched to the Gregorian calendar when the Papal bull to switch was issued. Essentially only Catholic countries followed the bulla. Russia, for example, didnt switch from the Julian calendar until 1917.

lohfu··on Killersheep – Silly game to show off the new features of Vim 8.2
Maintainer, not maintainers. If you look at the vim repo, https://github.com/vim/vim, essentially all commits are from the same person. Encouraging contributions and splitting maintenance between multiple people was one of the key factors when forking neovim. IIRC neovim was a result of Bram, the vim creator, refusing a PR for async plugins. Functionality that is today regarded as extremely important.

"Feminists killed by a nazi"

hncynic 1 minute ago

A couple of questions I have come to myself on a similar topic:

1. On what grounds are we a Nazi? What are the political implications of the use of "feminism"?

2. What's the reason the German government killed one of its female and Nazi leaders. If a german leader was killed because of sexism by other groups, how are they protected if there is a Nazi?

3. What is their motivation in this? Do they have a goal to end war and that they do not have a "war of Nazes"? And why are politicians so against the idea that "theirs" are not a communist?

man, last week i created https://peg.gy. similar idea when it comes to rating and tagging but no intention of fetching online discussions. it's just a proof of concept for now.

i even created a similar bookmarklet to drag to the bookmark bar, but "Peg it" instead of "Jar It"
