4,375,000,000 of the 3 1/2" disks. Sierra would be proud.

Same. Heritage Foundation involvement is another red flag.

My problems with the progress flag and the trans rainbow flag are not with the groups or ideas they are ment to express.

First like OP I think they are bad flag designs. To busy and lack the simple design a flag should have. I also just don’t like the look.

Second there is value in a consistent recognizable design like the rainbow. I spot all sorts of variants and often don’t know what they are supposed to mean.

I also don’t think there should be spefic meaning to the parts. Saying this color stripe is this group and that color is another group is problematic.

The rainbow colors were meant to symbolize broad inclusion. Everybody under the rainbow. Red isn’t gay, blue isn’t lesbian, etc. (I know some have tried to add that after the fact).

When you start adding spefic groups to the flag you start having included groups and excluded groups. So as much as I support trans rights and think they belong in the community I don’t want any spefic group in the flag.

You then get groups that are not included and want a new flag to included them. Like we are seeing with the trans flag causing groups to want the progress flag. Pretty soon the rainbow is going to look like nascar with logos everywhere.

A simple consistent flag with the message of broad inclusion is better.

I’m of the option that the original rainbow flag is still the best. It was meant to include everyone under the rainbow so trans people and others are already included.

Bankrupt and the founder and ceo is the new owner after buying it in the bankruptcy auction.

It’s also the speed of news now. When you had a edition a day in print there was time to do research.

Now with instant publishing on the web it’s more important to get the basic story out fast. With the hope it’s the one that sites like reddit pickup.

Yeah it’s better to solve the blood substitute problem first. Then if it works look at better ingredient creation.

So white light is when your brain sees a roughly matched signal level on all three color channels. So white would be all of whatever color receptors we evolved for the planet. It’s more of a signal overload than a color.

We actually can’t tell the difference between the mix of primary colors and the actual color. Take Cyan at about 490nm. Looking at it triggers your red, blue, and green receptors in a spefic set of levels your brain reads as Cyan.

However your brain can’t tell the difference between a signal at 490nm and the right combination of 440, 540, and 580 nm. So for example a tv can only show 3 colors but your eyes and brain can’t tell the difference between that and all the natural colors.

We are the most sensitive to green because it’s the wavelength least used by photosynthesis and most plants reflect it. So we evolved to be extra sensitive to it. Camera sensors are usually 50% green, 25% red, 25% blue.

A small number of women have a mutation allowing them to see yellow. So some women can tell the side difference between true yellow and a primary color mix.

Linux isn’t going to help much when the applications are using a lot ram. Firefox is an absolute ram hog linux or windows. Linux is just going to use less of the ram for it self.

It’s got some clunky gameplay but I love the bad or bad choices presented. Three are also a bunch of nice clues. Like checking your amulet regulary can reveal storey stuff.

The true identity of the main villain is great if you figure it out.

More people need a transplant than there are donors. A lot of people die waiting for an organ. Some people are willing to skip the wait list and get their organ from non willing donors.

But you can’t remove pocket from firefox just disable it. Given that it wa also a close source binary blob that made firefox not completely open source I’m glad it’s going.

Qt Creator is my favorite IDE. I’m mostly worrking in C# these days and I so miss it.

Sort of. They changed the law to repeal the paid sick leave from Proposition A.

They couldn’t force a change to the state constution that grants abortion rights. They did force a new amendment to go on the ballot to overturn the rights grated by Amendment 3.

The new amendment would remove the right to abortion with some exceptions not in the previous abortion restriction laws. It will be up to the voters.

Hopefully they don’t pass the new restrictions but it could go either way.

Only a ginger can call another ginger ginger.

Who could forget truly an inventionbefore it’s time.

Kings Quest? I played them on pc. They had stuff you needed the manual for but that was it. Did they change it for Nintendo?

It’s kind of the opposite of eclipse. People who use it like it and people who don’t have experience with it disparage it.

Yeah C# gets a bad rap. I spent a decade developing in C++, and Java before switching to C# because of program requirements. Now I never want to go back.
