I had a very different experience with my last MRI. I had brain slices (temporal lobe Epilepsy) and my head buzzed/vibrated and could not relax.

Bitwarden is installed via F-Droid from the official Bitwarden repository and is a build provided directly from Bitwarden. F-Droid does not provide a build of Bitwarden.


"I have nothing to hide" only makes sense if privacy and disclosure are treated as a binary. In reality, both exist on a spectrum: privacy is controlled disclosure, shaped by what is shared, with whom, at what level of detail, and under what power asymmetry.

Large surveillance systems inevitably build baselines. They don't just detect crimes; they detect patterns and anomalies relative to whatever becomes "normal".

The problem with "nothing to hide" is that it defaults to maximal disclosure. Data is persistent, aggregatable, and reinterpretable as norms and regimes change. The data doesn't.

This isn't purely individual. Your disclosures can expose others through contact graphs and inference, regardless of intent. And it doesn't matter whether the collector is the state or a company; aggregation and reuse work the same way.


Yes. In that realm, absence, too, is a signal; perpaps stronger one than just random chatter.


It is not possible to install proprietary Microsoft extensions using the official VSCodium builds without additional, non-default configuration.


Right. Then the removal of this IntelliCode extension from MS should have no effect on VSCodium users.

I thought originally it may have been an OSS extension, but it actually seems to have been a proprietary project licensed under the Microsoft Software License, similar to Copilot and such.


Verdis, officially the Free Republic of Verdis (Croatian: Slobodna Republika Verdis) (Serbian Cyrillic: Слободна Република Вердис) is a sovereign state located between Croatia and Serbia along the Danube river. On some maps, especially local maps, this land is known as Pocket-3.

The border meets Croatia by land and meets Serbia at the centerline of the Danube as shown on the maps of this page.

The parcel of land appeared due to an existing border dispute between Croatia and Serbia. The area had not been claimed by Croatia, Serbia, or any other state, which left the land unclaimed (terra nullius) since the Croatian War of Independence until it was proclaimed as the Free Republic of Verdis on 30 May 2019 by Daniel Jackson and his administration.


Dogor turned out to be a wolf, not a descendant of the ancient wolf line that dogs evolved from - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogor

As a Siberian Husky owner, I find the breed’s history fascinating. Some of the theories raised in relation to Dogor, like dogs deriving from more than one wolf population, are actually true for the Siberian Husky through ancient admixture. It is one of the few breeds with clear genetic links back to Arctic wolf populations, which is why it sits closer to the early proto-dog split than nearly all modern breeds.

Dogor is not part of that lineage, but his genome supports the idea that domestication was not a single clean event. For Huskies, that complexity shows up in their temperament and working drive, much closer to their wolf ancestors than most dogs today.


> It is one of the few breeds with clear genetic links back to Arctic wolf populations, which is why it sits closer to the early proto-dog split than nearly all modern breeds.

What does this mean? Aren’t there just as many generations between a Siberian Husky and the wolf-dog split as between a pug and the wolf-dog split? Unless you’re saying there was interbreeding with wolves in the husky’s ancestry (but not the pug’s) after the initial split?


Yes, all breeds are the same distance from the original dog/wolf split, but Huskies (northern snow dogs) are different because their lineage picked up extra genes from ancient Arctic wolves like the 35k-year-old Taimyr wolf. They also show direct continuity with ~9000 year old sled dogs from Zhokhov Island, while most modern breeds only go back a few hundred years. Add in thousands of years of breeding in isolation for Arctic work, and the functional traits that were developed over that long timespan left Huskies with more distinct genes than most other breeds.


That would be interesting, because the modern thinking goes that modern wolves are as different from wolves around the time of the wolf-dog split as modern dogs are. So if there was recent wolf interbreeding in the husky lineage, it's a different kind of wolf than what the first dogs were descended from. They're all very similar animals, so it may only show up on DNA tests, but there may be a sort of genetic timestamp showing when the last wolf admixture was that's visible on a DNA test.


I have doubts that changes in selection pressure on wolves in their natural environment, no matter how many generations, is remotely close to domestication and selective breeding.


The thousands of years of selection in the Arctic shaped Huskies, not the old wolf/husky interbreeding, which only left small but distinct genetic markers. Those came from an ancient Arctic wolf that split off around the same time as the ancestors of dogs and modern wolves, which is why they still show up so clearly today.


I look forward to trying:

Enhance 224 to 176. Enhance. Stop. Move in. Stop. Pull out, track right. Stop. Center and Pull back. Stop. Track 45 right. Stop. Center and stop. Enhance 34 to 36. Pan right and Pull back. Stop. Enhance 34 to 46. Pull back. Wait a minute. Go right. Stop. Enhance 57 to 19. Track 45 left. Stop. Enhance 15 to 23. Gimme a hard copy right there.

I don't even think YouTube is anywhere near the worst advert offender. My local newspaper website is stuffed full of adverts. Between a large picture, article heading and advert, you often don't see a signle line of new content above the fold on a 1080p screen.

I do not regularly visit such sites. I do unblock websites that I return to often.


Scale of data we see on our HPC, it is way better performance per £/$ to use Lustre mounted over fast network. Would spend far too much time shifting data otherwise. Local storage should be used for tmp and scratch purposes.


The docker image is a scratch purpose.


Imagine copying 8gb image to 96000 ranks over network


It's called caching layers bruv, container images do it. Plus you can stagger registries in a tiered cache per rack/cage/etc. OTOH, constantly re-copying the same executable over and over every time you execute or access it over a network filesystem wastes bandwidth and time, and a network filesystem cache is both inefficient and runs into cache invalidation issues.
