BoJo, my friend, these jihadis you’re talking about in the past hundred years have done far less damage to the UK than you have in a much shorter span.

Computers have ruled the planet for longer than the Greeks ever did. The history lesson is appreciated, but we’re living in the future, now, and the future is digital.
K/M/G/T/P = decimal prefixes. K is 1000. M is 1,000,000. etc.
Ki/Mi/Gi/Ti/Pi = binary prefixes. Ki is 2¹⁰ (1024), Mi is 2²⁰ (1,048,576), etc.
It’s a disambiguation of the previous system where we would use KB to interchangeably mean 1000 or 1024 depending on context.
The American way would probably be still using the units you listed but still meaning 1024, just to be confusing.
American here. This is actually the proper way. KB is 1024 bytes. MB is 1024 KB. The terms were invented and used like that for decades.
Moving to ‘proper metric’ where KB is 1000 bytes was a scam invented by storage manufacturers to pretend to have bigger hard drives.
And then inventing the KiB prefixes was a soft-bellied capitulation by Europeans to those storage manufacturers.
Real hackers still use Kilo/Mega/Giga/Tera prefixes while still thinking in powers of 2. If we accept XiB, we admit that the scummy storage vendors have won.
Note: I’ll also accept that I’m an idiot American and therefore my opinion is stupid and invalid, but I stand by it.

They’re rad, and you don’t notice the crease when the screen is displaying anything. I’ve had the zFold4 and now the 5 and I love it.
Oh snap, it’s Pillboi!
Boomer is a state of mind, love, and this post is a shining example of boomerism.
Well, yes, it was something beautiful and amazing and we all loved it very dearly, or we wouldn’t be so passionate about what management has done to it and continues to do to it.
Complete insanity to subject children to life altering wrong puberty.

That’s just cheesy.
Because this cost under $3000 USD in materials and I just have to get the gravel delivered and I can spread it myself with my own equipment. A concrete or asphalt road would require hiring a crew and I’d expect to have to spend closer to $20-30k+ for materials and labor.
Yes, I torrent Linux ISOs for any version or distro I want to install, and then I seed them until I download an updated version of whichever distro (and occasionally I’ll clean up old ones if I stopped using that distro but the version I have is ancient).
But of course when we talk about torrenting in public forums, it’s funny to only mention all the Linux distros we are torrenting and remaining hush-hush about other things we may be sharing.
Honestly, I just self-host. I download my ebooks, use Calibre to clean them, convert them to my favorite format (ePub), and tag the shit out of them with metadata. My Calibre library lives in a folder that gets synced to all my devices (I’m currently using a commercial cloud storage platform from one of the big providers, but working on spinning up a Nextcloud instance). Then I just open my ebooks in Moon+ Reader Pro on my phone and read away.
I think that’s a cool idea, but I don’t like it for unixporn. I always feel the *porn communities are just what you’re seeing – people sharing their pretty thing. Maybe they give details, maybe not. Maybe they interact and chat with the community, maybe not.
I also looked at Excalidraw, which while being web app, runs reasonably well on Android. But some of the functions either don’t work at all or I’m doing something wrong. I was able to import a photo and trace it, but couldn’t find a way to export just the trace outline.
After you trace the photo, can’t you delete the photo from the canvas and just save as SVG? Won’t it save just the trace if that’s all there is?
This is the way. I started on Obsidian, and Logseq is painful in comparison. It’s a good product, but I got accustomed to too many nice conveniences over the past couple of years.
