yeah, “the west” is going to invade 🙄

There’s no way to be viable against a heavily government-subsidized competitor who operates in a country with little to no labor, environmental, or safety regulation.

yes, it looks at a fine-grained clock, usually a cycle counter provided by the CPU for this purpose, to aggregate total on-cpu time for each process.

I think a lot of modern kernels are “tickless” - they don’t use a timeslice timer, and only context switch on IO interrupt, process yield, or when timeouts are specifically requested (including capping cpu-bound processes). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tickless_kernel

I think they limit your total ammo inventory in some Nordic country. You have to bring back casings to buy more ammo - solves two problems.

Probably dedicated vector/tensor coprocessors these days - which don’t have to work with your monitor layout or desktop setup!

Now I think my client (Memmy) is wonky too, because it can’t follow any of these links! Will try the web UI.

Ah, I read the requestor as wanting to disallow body text.

More policy and culture than implementation. Rarely see pages of links to mass media sites on your average phpBB, though.

I have thought for a while that the next “reddit” should be usenet with a client having advanced filtering, local scoring, etc. Maybe where the client reports to/reads from a shared spam database.

I dont mean a chat/conversation-specific community, I mean a collection of communities that are more people interacting than links being posted.

Plant- or algae- derived oils may work better. The key is to not extract hundreds of billions of tons of hydrocarbons that have been sequestered for 100 million years.
