Not the same person and cba to get a timestamp right now, but it's the 80% rule - the electrical stuff isn't designed to deliver the rated amperage continuously for hours on end, so for car charging, you're apparently supposed to limit it to 80%. Now, 80% of 50 isn't 42 but 40, so not sure if it's a case of 80% not being a precise number or a mistake here, but it roughly checks out.

In case you're serious, I think the :/ conveys feelings of disappointment that seagulls leave you when you run out of fries, which has obvious implications in a romantic context.

Sorry, you misunderstood - the change was forced, it's not what I'm referring to. I don't remember the exact way it worked, but I'm pretty sure they were pretty explicit about what the change is, at least.

What I'm saying is, you can go back to using your own nickname - I don't remember the exact process used, but I think the trick was to create a "brand account", which is basically an additional identity tied to your account, move everything to that identity, and use it instead of your private identity with your real name.

I forgot how it works exactly, but I'm pretty sure when google was doing that I created a brand account(?) and linked my channel to it, something like that, putting them behind a nickname while preserving the entire history. I don't remember the exact process, but nothing really changed for how I use YouTube, except I get to use a nickname.

I had the impression cloud was about the opposite - detaching your server software from physical machines you manage, instead paying a company to provide more abstracted services, with the ideal being high scalability by having images that can be deployed en masse independent of the specifics of where they're hosted and on what hardware. Pay for "storage", instead of renting a machine with specific hardware and software, for example.

Yes, apple should allow that, and Sony should allow that. Your "gotcha" seems pretty stupid, because "allow" doesn't mean "facilitate" - it's not Apple's responsibility to make those things work on their devices, but Apple is going out of their way to prevent individuals from making those things happen on their own.

If you license your project under GPL, and somebody submits some code (like through a pull request) that ends up in the library you use, you are now also bound by the GPL license, meaning you also have to publish the source of any derivatives.

The way to avoid it is to use something like a CLA, requiring every contributor to sign an agreement giving you special rights to their code, so you can ignore the GPL license in relation to the code they wrote. This works, but is obviously exploitative, taking rights to contributions while giving out less.

It also means if somebody forks the project, you can't pull in their changes (if you can't meet GPL terms, of course), unlike with MIT, where by default everybody can make their own versions, public or private, for any purpose.

Though it's worth noting, if you license your code under MIT, a fork can still add the GPL license on top, which means if you wanted to pull in their changes you'd be bound to both licenses and thus GPL terms. I believe this is also by design in the GPL license, to give open-source an edge, though that can be a bit of a dick move when done to a good project, since it lets the GPL fork pull in changes from MIT versions without giving back to them.

I think the trick might be that nothing is stopping you from using more than one 32-bit integer to represent addresses and the kernel maps memory for processes in the first place, so as long as each process individually can work within the 32-bit address space, it's possible for the kernel to allocate that extra memory to processes.

I do suppose on some level the architecture, as in the CPU and/or motherboard need to support retrieving memory using more than 32 bits of address space, which would also be what somebody else replied, and seems to be available since 1999 on both AMD and Intel.

Is it? Or did they choose Arch because of the ease of setting it up with all the latest software the community was already packaging?

The steam version of trackmania is quite weird - I looked for a way to pay for it through steam for a while before resignedly going into the Ubisoft payment in the overlay... Only to be directed to steam for payment. I'm not sure if it's even possible to pay through Ubisoft when launching it from steam.

I got the impression that the PolyMC situation was quite different, with that developer masking it and doing a minority of the work, but after one change made by the rest of the developers they snapped, used their control over the repository to remove the rest of the maintainers and take sole control over the repository.

I was aware of some shenanigans and hostility from PolyMC and never used it, but I got the impression there were no major outward signs before that happened?

Outer Wilds. The game isn't very text-heavy, but what there is feels important and personal. With the way the story is told, it is quite possibly my favorite story overall. I don't want to say too much, since knowledge is key in that game, but I would highly recommend it.
