We used to use computing power to search for ET signals, now we mine bitcoins.

That’s probably because that’s what the aliens want us to be doing. They can’t have just everybody snooping around their harvesting operations.

I thought I was the only one that remembers that band!

Picked the CD out at random while getting drunk last night, what a band!

Can’t fight the seether.

However, they still allow food to be destroyed.


I would add that the issue with Omega-3, is the imbalance between Omega-3 and Omega-6. It turns out that many of the food products have been manufactured with Omega-6 rich oils and that is causing some issues. One can ingest Omega-3 supplements, try to eat foods rich on that fatty acid or reduce foods with lots of Omega-6 in order to restore that balance.


I didn't know about polars, and I can see that they also have a library for R. However, in R, they have a fiercer competition. I wonder how it compares to tidyverse, which is the stablished data analysis library.


Reminds me of the theremin. Turning an interference into something useful (or beautiful)


I thought the article was about finding a job when you reach a certain age, which is my problem.


Yeah, I didn't notice where the article was located at first, and I thought that's what it was going to be about also.


The way I do it is to have two different first level domains. Let's say:

- w for the wireguard network. - h for the home network.

Nothing fancy, just populate the /etc/hosts on every machine with these names.

Now, it's up to me to connect to my server1.h or server1.w depending whether I am at home or somewhere else.


In reference to this. I just want to tell the case of sugar alcohols and my partner. She used to suffer random intestinal bloating and it tooks us a while to discover the reason.

We were aware of the problems associated with carbs and sugar consumption and we tried to find alternatives so we switched to 0% sugar foods. It turns out that most of them are filled with sweeteners, mostly sugar alcohols, and they have worse consequences.

In fact, anything that you ingest, and it is not absorbed by your digestive system, must go somewhere. Sugar alcohols can be fermented by the gut bacteria causing other kinds of problems. I would say that the best thing to do is to reduce/remove sugar from your diet without trying to find substitutes.

By the way, my partner went to her GP (NHS) and they just dismissed her case by just saying. "Oh, we believe you have IBS". That's it, case close.


I reckon this was an agreement between Putin and Trump. Ukraine for Venezuela. I can be wrong, of course.


It’s also worth noting that, according to Trump’s former Russia advisor, Fiona Hill, Russia once pushed for a “swap” in which it would abandon its support for Venezuela in exchange for the U.S. abandoning its support for Ukraine.

Of course, that doesn't mean that there is a deal, but it is certainly a possibility.
