Outstanding! I know a lot of work has gone into this release. Kudos to the TCT.
sigzero··on Octopuses seen hunting together with fish, punching those that don't cooperate
I am using octopodes from now on!
sigzero··on NASA spacecraft to probe possibility of life in Europa's salty ocean
> We all know life exists outside the solar system, only the biggest ego maniacs will truly believe humans are the only life in the universe

That statement isn't remotely true and it all depends entirely on what you define "life" as being.

"ALL THESE WORLDS ARE YOURS, EXCEPT EUROPA. ATTEMPT NO LANDING THERE. USE THEM TOGETHER. USE THEM IN PEACE."

Pretty cool to actually be doing this.

sigzero··on Tcl under fire: report suggests its QLED TVs might not have any quantum dots
Tom's has it as TCL. The headline here is incorrect.
sigzero··on Oracle, it's time to free JavaScript
There is nothing better about "JS" over "JavaScript".
sigzero··on Exxon still expects fossil fuels to make up the majority of energy in 25 years
Exxon is probably right.
sigzero··on X says it is closing operations in Brazil due to judge's content orders
No, no it is not.

Or it could cause the actual citizens of the EU to put a stop to the stupidity.
sigzero··on Kim Dotcom's extradition to the U.S. given green light by New Zealand
Just look at society and it plays out. Every time.
sigzero··on Epic vs. Google judge says he'll 'tear the barriers down' on Google's app store
"There’s no change for them."

They would fundamentally have to change how app stores work with Apple. Yes, things will change for everyone.

sigzero··on Google Pixel 9 Pro
Wow, talk about an unrealistic expectation. 2030? lol
sigzero··on MacBook Air, M2 Chip, 8GB RAM: Nothing is open, but half the memory is gone
Is water wet?

"Most scientists define wetness as a liquid's ability to maintain contact with a solid surface, meaning that water itself is not wet, but can make other sensation. But if you define wet as 'made of liquid or moisture', as some do, then water and all other liquids can be considered wet."

sigzero··on Judge orders CDC to stop deleting emails of departing staff: 'likely unlawful'
Likely? It is.
sigzero··on The Third Atomic Bomb
Why should "not dependent" on sales be any kind of consideration here? The right thing to do is to purchase the book.
sigzero··on Fair Chess and Simultaneous Games
Yes, I agree with you.
sigzero··on Fair Chess and Simultaneous Games
It was more likely (unless he was just a d*ck) that he was making you black because you learn better that way.
sigzero··on Python with Braces
I really hate the "tab width = 8" though.
sigzero··on Microsoft removes documentation for switching to a local account in Windows 11
There is nothing wrong with that word. Seriously.

It's probably why I kept crashing!
sigzero··on Apple unveils 'Passwords' manager app at WWDC 2024
FWIW, I have had zero issues with 1P version 8.
sigzero··on Saint Michael Sword: Are the cathedrals really on a straight line?
Correct!

The word cathedral comes from a Latin word meaning “seat.” The seat referred to is the seat of the bishop, who is the leader of a group of churches related to the cathedral. The bishop's seat is both a metaphor for the cathedral as the bishop's “seat of power” and his actual chair, the "cathedra," inside the cathedral.

sigzero··on PeaZip: Open-source file compression and encryption software
There is noting wrong and it is probably better to use 'xattr -d -r' since an .app file is just a directory structure.
sigzero··on Manta Ray UUV prototype completes in-water testing
To look like a manta ray?
sigzero··on Pharo 12
Smalltalk is one of those "I'd like to learn" but haven't found a good resource that I like (oh and the time, sigh).
sigzero··on Passkeys: A shattered dream
I like that app but until they add in templates, it's a no go for me. They are discussing it though (for 2.8.0), so maybe a future thing.

100%
sigzero··on Zoho is attracting the attention of African startup founders
That is a less than smart attitude on it. I don't think you have really thought that through.

Business Basic probably and probably has a personal domain attached.
