Hi, I’m sbird! I like programming and am interested in Physics. I also have a hobby of photography.

I like things being named after cute animals


Stoat is a cute little animal, and they say they chose it because it is quick and clever. Kind of like how “Lemmy” is named after an animal that shares similar properties


Lepton to match Proton, I guess? Very interesting! I wonder what they’re going to do next…Boson? Photon? Gluon? Graviton?


Did you comment on the wrong post? Don’t think I mentioned universities, Windows, or bash


Could it be possible that the absence of mass is what drives gravity? (probably not, but it’s cool to think about)


During the holidays (i.e. I don’t go to school and back) the issue doesn’t pop up. Weird.


ok, got it. Thanks for the help! I will try that and see if it fixes the issue


a warning shows up: Warning: The system is configured to read the RTC time in the local time zone. This mode cannot be fully supported. It will create various problems with time zone changes and daylight saving time adjustments. The RTC time is never updated, it relies on external facilities to maintain it. If at all possible, use RTC in UTC by calling ‘timedatectl set-local-rtc 0’.
The warning disappears when I ran “timedatectl set-local-rtc 0”, will that fix the issue?


Time zone is GMT+8 (so it is a time zone thing!). Don’t really boot into windows much but it does exist. I think it might be my school’s network


I am using GMT+8, interesting. I don’t dual boot windows at school, but I do have a dual boot with windows (but I rarely ever boot into windows…)


future proofing the comment for the next decade or so?


Nice! Will be adding that to the list


“CapyReader”


I do follow them too, forgot to mention! They do make good comics though


I did mention that non-American news are similar, but the American ones in particular are very on the nose when it comes to this.


Not that, when searching with the “application menu”. Or is KRunner running when that is open? I’m pretty sure its different since KRunner (when opened with keyboard shortcut) shows extra things compared to the application menu search bar. Dang, you can’t edit that easily?


I remember reading something somewhere that the gravitational lensing of dark matter (where light bends around and you can see behind) was evidence for dark matter being a thing that exists. Dark matter could really be anything though (ones I have heard about include WIMPs, primordial black holes, and supersymmetric particles like gravitinos), and we simply don’t have enough experimental data to know what it is. We know it exists as we see its gravitational effects in galaxies and such, but that’s about it.
No, don’t think you can. You can upload a link to a video hosting site though (a file hosting thing would also work)


So it’s like when a camera doesn’t have enough light to properly take a photo, producing a lot of grain. Like when you have a high ISO when taking a photo/video in a dark room, it looks very grainy. I guess the eye is still adjusting its “exposure” if you see some of this graininess in the dark (or when you close your eyes?)
When I used iOS, background upload seemed to work okay. On both iOS and Android, though, I occasionally go into the app to manually backup since both like to kill background processes to save on battery life.
