Yeah. It's not like I can communicate with someone in Cantonese when they only know Mandarin.
If the same script is considered Chinese, might as well put Japanese Kanji inside.

The problem is the ambiguity of the statement. Is it 50% of each species? Or is it 50% of all life as one set?
If it's the former case, then sure 3.5b humans and n/2 bacteria gets snapped.
But if it's the latter case, we group all 7b and n bacteria into one set and snap half of them. This 50% can consist of 50% humans + 50% bacteria, but there's also a chance for it to include 0% humans + 100% bacteria. Therefore, the amount of humans snap is a random variable instead of a constant.
Yeah maybe posting it here doesn't really help?
Say, there exists 2 humans and 98 bacteria. Consider all cells of a human one life.
50% of ALL life doesn't care which species the life is, and therefore there's a chance that 50 bacteria die. The probability of that happening is 98C50 / 100C50 = 98! 50! 50! / (100! 50! 48!) = (50)(49) / ((100)(99)) = 0.247
For my previous argument, I did not actually do the math. Now that I have done a little bit, the probability seems to converge at 25%
Obviously, this is based on the interpretation of "all life". For my interpretation, "all life" includes every life in a single set, and apply the 50% snap to that. For some others however, it may be interpreted as each species in their own set, and the 50% snap is applied on each set individually.
If you include bacteria, then probably no human died from the snap. There are significantly more of them
This is Mandarin. ε± (diao3) is the character that means "fucking (adj)" here. It is a swear in most of China, except Taiwan, where it typically means "good (adj)".
In Cantonese, we instead use the character ζ (pronounced like "lung" with an upward tone)
What kind of sicko try to find their repos from the recent list on the main page??
SO has been taking a longer time to load for me. Does anyone have the same problem?
Nothing. I still buy most of my stuff physically

I actually often have more unread notifications than my dad.
Also it's not simply brightness. It's their refusal to ever use dark mode that confuses me.
I know this isn't helping but your scale is saying "ok lol"

I recently bought a Corsair HS55 Wireless Headset. They stated it supports Dolby 7.1, IF you use the iCue software, which doesn't work on Linux.
Using pavucontrol, I can change the profile between Analog Stereo Output, Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output and Digital Surround 5.1 (IEC958/AC3) Output, but the Analog one is the only one that works. The other 2 just results in broken audio. There's not even a 7.1 option.
I don't have high hope about this, and I expected it to not work when I bought it, but it would be nice if anyone has some ideas.
I'm satisfied with mine and I use it everywhere. How about you?
Here are 3 examples: Fried egg, fried rice, fried chicken
All these "fry" are different. If you were to use the "fry" in fried rice to fry an egg, you'd get scrambled egg. Fried chicken is done by submerging it in oil, which you won't do with fried egg or fried rice.
This post is made from the perspective of a Cantonese/Chinese speaker. We have different words for these different types of "fry" (η , η, ηΈ respectively)

I'm a Hongkonger and often need to type in Chinese. While I can use input methods like Cangjie or Quick, I much prefer handwriting to keep in mind how to write the characters in a digital age.
So far, I have only seen open source keyboards without handwriting support. Does any of them exist?
I have 2 physical output devices, say "speakers" and "headphones", and I frequently switch between them.
I also have a script that creates 2 virtual sinks for voice call and game by loading module-combine-sink twice on "speakers" and "headphones".
It works, but it's annoying that every time I want to switch device, I also need to mute the other one.
Ideally, I want to use module-remap-sink instead, remapping the 2 virtual sinks to the default one. This is where I'm stuck. What do I put in for master?

For a few months now, Pipewire has been acting in weird ways. Before I upgraded to Plasma 6, after a screen blank (not suspend) no media can be played. For example, YouTube player is in the loading state for a long time, eventually playing without sound, VLC doesn't start for a few minutes.
I have to restart the Pipewire Systemd service to fix it. This restart process takes much longer than usual (<1 seconds). Sometimes it takes up to 5 minutes.
Now with Plasma 6, it also does the same after the initial login. I'm guessing this is because Plasma ignores some KWIN_X11_* env var?
However, if I restart the Pipewire service prior to playing any media after login or screen blank, it takes <1 seconds and everything plays correctly.
This seems to be the problem with the HDMI audio only, as switching to the USB headphones (before screen blanks) prevents this from happening.
How should I start troubleshooting this? What other details should I provide?
I'm working on a presentation about the Fediverse, and would like to end the presentation with a slogan. Any ideas?
Edit: I probably should've specified more stuff. This is an informative presentation, not persuasive, and I don't plan to get into the enshittification. Ideally I don't want to include any corporations.

Edit: lol this is as controversial as I expected
I remember reading somewhere (probably my high school textbook) that one of the reasons people don't like wind power being built is they cause visual pollution.
In my opinion, I think it would be pretty cool to just look out my window and see a giant windmill there, the opposite of visual pollution.
I had a moment to think about why I like certain games, and I have figured out some criteria for myself,
- Vibrant colours
- Simple/Cartoon-ish looks
- Mid/High level of complexity in mechanics
That's why my current favourite game is Splatoon 3, followed by Minecraft, and the list consists mostly of Nintendo games.
What's your criteria?
[Splatoon 1 / Mario Kart 8] Online services for these games will resume on Aug 3 at 1 am UTC. A software update will be required. Nintendo notes that online play may be permanently shut down in the future if it continues to be difficult to keep the services running. https://www.nintendo.co.jp/su...
According to OatmealDome, online services will resume on Aug 3 at 1 am UTC.
