Aber sonst noch alles ganz frisch?

Einfach die docx Dateien trotzdem ins git schmeißen.

Right now we’re releasing Windows 10, and because Windows 10 is the last version of Windows, we’re all still working on Windows 10.

It's all about Windows as a service

Windows isn't dead, but the idea of version numbers could be

Recent comments at Ignite about Windows 10 are reflective of the way Windows will be delivered as a service bringing new innovations and updates in an ongoing manner, with continuous value for our consumer and business customers

That's true.

It also explains nothing about that picture.

I love the positivity, but I don't get it. Why is the union of "act + do your best" and "imagine a better future" the question "why are you here"? Same for the other overlapping areas.

The person I replied to was talking about learning the basics of a language... This isn't about searching for something specific, this is about reading the very basic introduction to a language before trying to Google your way through it. Avoiding the basic documentation is always a bad idea. Replacing it with the LLMed version of the original documentation probably even more so.

What about just reading the documentation?

Not to be overly pedantic, but changing the order of things in the second part of the sentence is really throwing me off by suggesting that donuts are fermented and that there's a beer with fried dough as an ingredient somewhere.

Lise Meitner went on to be forgotten? In my city, a big street bears her name, including the tram station there. Fittingly, it's the tram to the University that stops there. Essentially, her name is hammered into all students' heads here.

systemd gets stuck because it's trying to mount two separate partitions to the same mount point

Uh... Sounds like it's not really systemd's fault, your setup is just terrible.

I've tried fixing it, but all I did was break it more.

If you're unable to fix it, maybe get somebody else? Like, this doesn't sound like it's an unfixable issue...

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/5D_optical_data_storage

The "5-dimensional" descriptor is only a marketing term, since the device has 3 physical dimensions and no exotic higher dimensional properties. The fractal/holographic nature of its data storage is also purely 3-dimensional. The size, orientation and three-dimensional position of the nanostructures comprise the so-called five dimensions.

☹️

/edit

Further down in the article it is a little clearer...

In this case, the 5 dimensions inside of the discs are the size and orientation in relation to the 3-dimensional position of the nanostructures. The concept of being 5-dimensional means that one disc has several different images depending on the angle that one views it from, and the magnification of the microscope used to view it.

The website even lists a little more...

In order to increase the data capacity of optical storage, there is the potential of storing more than one bit in a single voxel by implementing multiplex technology. The recently developed 5D optical storage technique uses birefringence as an extra degree of freedom – the property of a medium whereby its refractive index varies depending on the polarization and direction of incident light. Birefringence generated by the orientation and size of optical nano-gratings offers two extra dimensions, providing much higher storage capacities.

So, it's supposedly three dimensions of position plus angle and (maybe?) polarity. So, it seems to be more than just a marketing gimmick, but I can't find any information about the resolution of those additional two parameters, so I can't tell if a single voxel stores two bits or two terabits.

We recently went to Italy. Went to a local restaurant, three kids and us two adults. The kids wanted some specific pizza each, but they also offered a family Margherita for 14 bucks, so we ordered this together with the kids' pizza, assuming us two parents could eat that and maybe some leftovers.

That fucker was huge. I think 50 cm diameter? The family pizza alone probably would have fed all of us, the regular ones weren't small either. With prices being what they are, I'm sometimes happy if I can eat properly for 14 bucks in a restaurant. A meal for two for that price would be a good deal. Taking three kids to a restaurant for that price was a damn steal.

The next day the leftovers alone were enough for lunch and supper. The day after that we went back to the same place.
